Nikkei remains short of breakout 

StockCharts.com Blogger Arthur Hill reporting:

While the S&P 500 moved above its mid July high, the Nikkei 225 ($NIKK) remains short of a breakout and within a downtrend still. $NIKK surged to resistance last week, but fell just short of 9800 and pullback on Friday. A break above this resistance level is needed to reverse the downtrend.

Are we going to get a worldwide “It’s a Breakout!” scenario?
