Looking at this five-year chart of INDU, we can see we have again approached and crossed the 11,000 line. With the base built over last two years after 2003 all year long steady climbing up, we may enter a new uptrend from here. We need to see some follow-through after breaking 11,000 with decent volume.

DOW Jones Industral Average pulls back a little. I expect that we may see a pullback around 10730. If you are bullish, it may be an opportunity to get on this rally at the year end.

How much will the market continue to rally? All major markets are quite extended after going straight up for almost two months.
It's quite possible that it continues to move up, but I would sell into the strength to take some profits.

The long doji indicated that market didn't make up mind yet on where to go next. We need some push to break the overhead resistence.
