The broad market, as epitomized by $SPX, has crept higher this week. The higher highs and higher lows on the $SPX chart are easily identifiable, and as long as that pattern exists, the $SPX chart is bullish.
Equity-only put-call ratios continue to remain on buy signals. Market breadth has been generally positive as well.
Volatility indices ($VIX and $VXO) have continued to decline, and that is a bullish trend for stocks.
In summary, the conditions are bullish right now. Use the chart of $SPX as the major guide; as long as the bullish trend line remains in place, the bulls have the upper hand.
