Volume was on the light side again today. It seems like the market's just in a holding pattern waiting for the big bad jobs report to be released tomorrow morning. The S&P managed to close dead on its 50-day moving average today (damn those technical traders). It'll be interesting to see where it ends up at tomorrow's open -- I'm assuming there will be a gap due to the jobs number. The action on the Nasdaq, and especially the NDX/QQQQ, seems really bearish to me and I'm not sure that it can be saved by the payroll data.

yes very interesting technicals at this point
the dow 30 in particular has dmas from 50 - 100 at almost exactly the same level
do you think that has any value? or is it just a broken indicator?
