The $SPX Index has backed off slightly from its all-time highs at 6480, set last Friday. This is a modest correction, and the support levels at 6260, 6200, and 6150 are still in place. Any pullback to those levels followed by a resumption of the market rally would just be considered a correction in an ongoing bull market. However, a breakdown below 6150 would be quite negative.

Stocks pushed to new all-time closing and intraday highs this past week on two separate days -- August 12th and 13th. Any chart making new all-time highs is, by definition, bullish. There is support at 6400, 6200, and 6150.

The chart of $SPX remains bullish. The Index pulled back to almost exactly 6200 last Friday, August 1st, and has bounced from there. It also bounced off that level back in early July, so that is now a valid support area. Furthermore, there is support at 6150 -- the old all-time highs as of February. As long as $SPX remains above this 6150-6200 area, its chart is positive and one should maintain a bullish attitude about the stock market. A failure at the 6150 level would likely bring in some heavy selling.

The rally that began in early April continues to drive higher into new all-time territory. There hasn't been much of a correction, and so far the internals have held up very well. However, overbought conditions are building, so we need to avoid complacency and pay attention to the indicators.
The $SPX chart is bullish, with support at 6200 (last week's low), 6150 (the previous highs), 6020-6060 (the gap on the chart), and 5920. These are all marked on the $SPX chart in Figure 1.

Stocks have continued to plow ahead, with $SPX making repeated new all-time highs this week. For the most part, these new highs have been accompanied by strong internal indicators, too.
