Important developments in the key reversal levels last week:
* Stock markets seem to be going through an ordinary pullback and stay in rally mode, except for the FTSE100, which continues to display weakness and has fallen into decline mode.
* Daily MoM is down for all markets, showing that the pullback is ongoing, but weekly MoM remains up so there is no reason for panic
* Bonds (TLT) have continued to rally and are now close to testing their weekly key reversal level.
* Gold remains in fully bearish mode. Weekly MoM is still down, while daily MoM is slightly to the upside. Still too early to buy.
* The EURUSD has held on the recent gains, but the daily MoM has turned down, which is a first sign that the rally may have ended. I would sell EURUSD as soon as we see a daily close below the key reversal level at 1.3363
* Oil has continued to go down and may soon be testing its weekly key reversal level. A weekly close below $99.52 would mean that oil has gone into bear status.
And here are our key target zones (we use a +/-1% zone around these targets):
| Key Targets | Top | Top2 | Bottom | Bottom2 |
| Nasdaq | 3830 | 3930 | 3530 | 3210 |
| S&P 500 | 1738 | 1799 | 1576 | 1522 |
| Nikkei | 15850 * | 16580 | 12710 | 10450 |
