The 8 MA is above the 34 MA signaling bullish markets for the hours ahead, however, the red lines show the negative divergence across all indicators desiring a spank down. The RSI has some more room above to print deeper into the overbot territory but for the most part, price is topping out in this 30-minute time frame. Interestingly, the 2-hour and 1-hour chars want to see some sideways to sideways higher action into Monday after lunch time so the weakness above may dictate the action early in the morning, then a midday recover move to play around with the 1646-1653 resistance area, then roll over for more substantive down.
The brown lines show key resistance at 1649-1650, although the technical analysis this weekend identifies the 1646-1653 area as the wider resistance battleground, and key support at 1634. The red lines over the last three weeks show a downward-sloping megaphone pattern, also called an expansion pattern. The 2-hour and 1-hour charts show the downward-sloping parallel channel and that is shown above as well but the megaphone is of interest since if price comes back under the red trend line at 1634-1638, the door to the downside, well into the 1500's, would be open. The most important thing to watch on the 30-minute is the 8 and 34 MA cross. The 8 MA is starting to roll over to the downside, a first step that is required if the bears want to fight back. The 8 MA is 1638 so if the SPX starts printing sub 1638, the bears will smile. Bulls are fine if they keep price above 1638. Projection is a few hours of sideways action through 1634-1653 and then a roll over to the downside again. This information is for educational and entertainment purposes only.
