Pivot High

QQQ analysis for Thursday December 13th, 2012 and TraderHank’s stock picks…

Tomorrows News:

10:00 am – Business Inventories

10:30 Natural Gas Inventories

13:00 30 year bond auction 

The Q’s closed today in a 5 minute downtrend and I would expect some follow through tomorrow.  We also have an M top forming on the daily chart of the Q’s which is bearish and could mean that we are going lower from here.  For tomorrow, If we gap up and stay below the 66.10 area, I would be looking to take the first 5 minute sell setup that happens at or near 10 am reversal time.  If we open neutral or gap lower and break today’s low, I would look to take the first 5 minute sell or base break down that occurs.  Lower targets are 65.50, 65.00 and 64.50 areas on the low side.  I would not look for a long until the 5 minute down trend is over or something strange happens like we gap to the 66.30 area and rally, then the first pull back would be buy able.
