The ES gained 4 handles on the day after recouping a gap down that tested the 10ema. The 10eam has been the defining level since the breakaway gap on the first trading day of the year. Keep a close eye on the 8/8 level just overhead.
The NQ futures were higher on the day by 6 making both a new high and new high close on the move. Price is extended and the MACD is starting to top off. Mind the 10ema which has defined the trend.

The NDX/SPX cross has not made a new high to confirm the new high in the broad market. If it doesn’t happen in the next 48 hours it will be a notable divergence.
The BKX was the top gun on the day but did not make a new high on the move. Intermediate trends tend to mature when leaders take pause and laggards outperform.
The SOX has a Seeker 13 exhaustion signal in place and hit but retreated from the 8/8 level. Keep a close eye on how the MACD behaves. This move may be mature and ready for a test of the midpoint of the regression channel.

Oil was lower on the day, backing off range high levels.
Gold remains in the overbought area of +1/8:
