TA Spotlight: Russell 2000

When the market up begins he gets in the commencement of the move, and goes along with it till there are signs of a halt or distribution. - Richard Wyckoff.

Russell 2000 (small cap stocks) continue to break to new highs with volume confirmations. The 10/14 gap was filled and breached on 12/21 with an increased in volume or positive tape despite the light pre-holiday trading. Also, the 10/19 swing high was broken on 12/23, again, with increasing volume in a pre-holiday session.

An AP press release summed up the equity situation faily well. Few called market turn, fewer predict it will last despite the fact that tape continues to confirm.
