In the October 27, 2010 blog post (“Market Overview – Part V: Stock Market”) I showed two charts of the S&P500.
As we are now approaching various important technical levels of the S&P500, I have updated one of the charts, as seen below:

As one can see from the chart, one interpretation that can be made is that of a (completed) “Cup & Handle” chart formation as denoted by the green line. I have added a red line to now denote the 1220 area. I think it would be significant if the S&P500 falls below this 1220 level now, as the 1220 level is technically significant in many different ways.
