The market gapped open this morning and effectively traded in a .50 range for the rest of the day. It was a quiet day ahead of the AAPL numbers. As I write this it appears they like the AAPL numbers and it is trading around 259 up about $14 from the close. That has the QQQQ and the SPY trading close to the 2010 highs, let’s see what tomorrow brings. I want to see if AAPL has enough to bring the broader market to new 2010 highs with it.


Today’s gap up and sideways action provided little opportunity to buy on dips, but at the same time the breakouts that did trigger were mixed genz (failed) srcl (.12 gain). My point is, in this quiet choppy market be picky.

The following ideas may be actionable tomorrow. I am going to have a close eye on AAPL to see if he is driving the market tomorrow, but there is a good chance that he does his own thing and the market just trades on.
