April 8, 2014 Daily charts are negative for the five major equity averages.

All five of the major equity averages are below their 21-day simple moving averages with declining daily momentum, which makes the daily charts negative. The Nasdaq and Russell 2000, which already have negative weekly charts are also below their 50-day SMAs. Dow Industrials is below its quarterly pivot at 16462 and traded below its monthly pivot at 16297 but closed just above its semiannual value level at 16245. The S&P 500 stayed below its monthly risky level at 1895.6 and closed below its quarterly pivot at 1853.5. The Nasdaq stayed above its quarterly value level at 4039. Dow Transports stayed above its quarterly value level at 7407. The Russell 2000 is below its quarterly pivot at 1169.22 and traded below semiannual pivots at 1133.29 and 1130.79. We still have semiannual value levels at 3930 and 3920 on the Nasdaq with semiannual pivots at 16245 Dow Industrials, 1797.3 and 1764.4 S&P 500, 7376 and 7245 Dow Transports, and 1133.29 and 1130.79 on the Russell 2000, and the semiannual risky level at 16860 Dow Industrials. All pivots mentioned have been crossed at least once so far in 2014. To confirm a market top there needs to be simultaneous weekly closes below the five-week modified moving averages at 16256 Dow Industrials, 1850.0 S&P 500, 4203 Nasdaq, 7450 Dow Transports and 1165.28 Russell 2000.
