In Tuesday’s US Index and Sector ETF Research that I despatched to my paid Substack subscribers, I reviewed the short-term technical situation of the S&P 500 Index titled, “Ideas on the quick time period technical situation of the SPX Index” which is just one a part of the entire Research. At the moment (that I’ve highlighted immediately with a purple arrow), I wrote… “In early Might when the SPX Index regained the bottom above the Each day Cloud Chart, I utilized a Schiff Modified Pitchfork (violet P1 by P3). Since every week in the past final Wednesday costs have been capped by the Higher Parallel (strong violet line) of that pitchfork. Final Thursday the index produced a nasty exterior day or in candle parlance an engulfing candle however to date it has not unfolded right into a full-fledged reversal. What has developed to date has been a pointy flip in my US ETF Each day Momentum / Breadth indicator which has fallen sharply regardless of costs holding close to to the latest highs. MACD has additionally not confirmed the latest worth highs and is starting to roll over. I imagine that odds favor a level of backing and filling that can drive costs to key short-term assist on the Median Line (violet dotted line) of the pitchfork, the Kijun Plot (inexperienced line) and the Cloud”. The technical thesis that I instructed at the moment has unfolded as anticipated. The SPX traded decrease till it examined assist on the Median Line yesterday and an intraday reversal drove the big cap Index to the highs of the day. It stays to be seen whether or not that’s the extent of the worth pullback, however my US ETF Momentum / Breadth Oscillator is approaching “oversold territory” and regardless of what have been an “finish of month markup” there’s nonetheless an underlying bid within the SPX.
