The Dow closed lower on Friday as investors looked at a number of weaker-than-expected earnings results from heavily weighted companies including Amazon and decided to reduce some of their exposure in the market. The low-range close sets the stage for a steady to lower opening when Monday's night session begins trading. Stochastics and the RSI are overbought but remain neutral to bullish signaling that sideways to higher prices are possible near-term. Multiple closes above May's high crossing at 35,091.56 would mark an upside breakout of a three-month old trading range while opening the door for additional gains near-term. Closes below the 50-day moving average crossing at 34,508.72 would signal that a short-term top has been posted while opening the door for a possible test of July's low crossing at 33,741.76.

If September resumes this year's rally into uncharted territory, upside targets will be hard to project with the index trading in uncharted territory.
