Monday's hammer pattern in the broad indices did not confirm on Tuesday as the SPX broke below its 200 DMA support today and closed at 881, just above its 875 horizontal support. The broad indices are at a key support level if broken could lead to significantly lower prices including approximately 800 on the SPX.
On Wednesday we will be watching this key support level closely.
