By Lawrence G. McMillan

The S&P 500 Index ($SPX) has made new all-time closing highs on the last three days. Other indices are following most notably the Dow ($DJX) and NASDAQ (QQQ and Composite).

There is support on the $SPX chart at the old highs (2940- 2950) and below that, where there was more work done, at 2890- 2910.

The equity-only put-call ratios remain strong and on buy signals, as those ratios continue to drop rapidly.

Both breadth oscillatorsaare on buy signals and both are in overbought territory. That's a good thing when $SPX is making new all-time highs.

$VIX has dropped quite a bit in the last week and is now approaching 12. In any case, $VIX is in a bullish spot, and would only turn negative for stocks if it were to climb above 17.

In summary, we remain bullish along with our indicators.
