Negative ISM and construction spending reports send markets lower.  Crude oil futures trade lower again by 1% to $58.07.

Tuesday's market action gave us 3 consecutive lower intraday lows in the S&P 500 Index (explanations below).  This is a bullish signal telling us that sellers may be done in the short term.  It will be interesting to see if we get more bullish signals today and through the week (click here for more info).

3 Higher Highs In A Row and 3 Lower Lows In A Row- The same tactics applied to 3 consecutive closes in the same direction apply here. 3 higher highs identifies a market that is overbought, especially when its below its 200 day ma. 3 consecutive lower lows is an excellent time to be looking for long positions when the market is above its 200 and to be locking in short positions when its below its 200 day.
