Technical Analysis

<ul>
<li>US breadth remains a challenge as we move into a more bearish April cycle. SPX risk to reward is less favorable above 4,500 (March ideal rally target).</li>
<li>Cycle: Call for more bullish cycle from March 16 (bottom on the 15th) into the 22nd, then expect a dip/rally into late March ahead of early April weakness/volatility.</li>
<li>RTY a top short under 2,100 and DJI to build a short toward 35k. Underperform makes a good case to short. NDX 15,100 ideal sell zone.</li>
