The initial stop at 58.46 is strongly protected by the huge second resistance cluster with strength of 26. The most probable 3-day short target of 53.38 is at the lower end of the first support cluster, suggesting a continuation to the downside would be relatively easy from there.

For IWM, the path of least resistance is clearly upwards and only daily levels (not shown) are hindering a bounce to our 81.18 short entry level. Support strength is now sturdy enough compared to resistance for a one-day-only bullish bias. The initial stop (83.03) of a possible new short position is well protected by the strong second resistance cluster. Billy

I would like to add the following comment on IWM: Since the 20DMF is now in oversold territory, we might have a buy signal at the close of today (or tomorrow). In such a condition, a bounce could trigger a short position by the robot. If we have a 20DMF buy signal by the close, the robot will cover its short at the close. However, if we do not have a 20DMF buy signal by the close, then we might fall lower tomorrow and in such a case, selling at target (QSI of 79.32) is advisable. This strategy (selling at target when in oversold territory) was back-tested (last week,) but is not programmed in the IWM robot.
