Kind of a waiting game for the stock market today as the Dow fell 14 points on holiday light volume. The advance/declines were negative. Summation index still heading lower. The technicals for some of the stock indexes are finally getting oversold on a daily basis. However tomorrows employment report should set the tone for the open on Monday. I have no idea what that will bring. We'll see what happens in Europe tomorrow, have a long weekend and go from there. GE was off 1/4 today on light volume. The weekly charts appear to have rolled over here. That would not bode well for the overall market if it continues. I will have to reassess my idea for the May calls here. Getting oversold on the daily charts. Gold bounced back a little over $15 today and the US dollar was higher as well. The XAU was off 1 3/4. ABX down 5/8, GG fell 1/3 and NEM dropped 3/4. Volume was still pretty good despite the holiday mode of the markets. The gold shares are very oversold and the Gold/XAU ratio is off the charts to the buy side. I will have to consider getting the calls here again but that hasn't worked lately. Mentally I'm feeling OK. I will be going over the charts this weekend and try to come up with some type of game plan for next week. 2 weeks to go in the April option cycle. My trading hasn't been very good lately and that will have to change for the better. It's a long weekend and time for a rest.
