Russell 2000 - Small Caps face Headwinds (TZA)

RUTdailyJan122012.png

Small Caps are hitting a layer of heavy resistance.  This is a natural level to see profit taking as shown on the chart.     

The Russell 2000 is likely to see increased selling pressure at it approaches the 775 area.  Multiple resistances are converging at this level.  A short term top and dip to follow could be expected as a result.  


 

If you draw an uptrendline starting from the October low, you have the bearish pattern of a rising wedge formation. That would target a break of as low as 660, or lower.

Most likely we will see a pullback soon from this level at least for now.  Stay tuned as a larger bearish move may develop with the wedge you have described.  Thank you.
