Muddy pattern still at hand in the 500 index…

Muddy and Choppy pretty well describes the short-term in the 500. Recent rally wasn't that big of deal and todays roughly 1% decline hasn't broken any key support.

Game Plan....Per the long exposure in the equity market, remain heavy into the high yield funds and PFF.  As I shared in the chart above, if support line (3) is taken out, being defensive most likely won't be a bad idea. 

 Pre-market this morning (see post here) I shared that the Dollar, for the first time in months has broken above its falling channel.  If history is any guide, an upside movement/breakout will create price challenges to commodities and most stock markets

With the Dollar breaking a steep falling channel, should the broad market break support dating back to the 2009 lows, even slow money (401k's) should be very cautious!!!
