Dow Jones Industrial Average Nearing Critical Resistance Level

Monday was pretty scary for traders. Whether that’s just a trading bottom or a more meaningful bottom, no one knows just yet. But it does appear that the rally out of Monday’s deep decline in the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) has reached a critical technical resistance level for traders.

That level comes in at 16,655 (a measured move). Notice today’s close.  Bingo – right at 16,655.  (see chart below for reference)

Furthermore, the markets reaction in and around this technical resistance level will likely give us a heads up for the next directional move (in my opinion). If the Dow Jones Industrial Average decides to move higher, other Fibonacci levels are highlighted.
