Daily Technical Forecast

Based on the current trade, the direction of the Dow into the close is likely to be determined by trader reaction to the retracement zone at 24886 to 25310.

A sustained move over 25310 will indicate the presence of buyers. This could trigger a change in trend through 25424 then a move into a steep downtrending Gann angle at 25532. This is the trigger point for an acceleration to the downside, however, we need volume to pick up.

A sustained move under 24886 will signal the presence of sellers. The next target is the steep uptrending Gann angle at 24624.
