SPX Daily Chart Channel Failure
Yesterday the SPX lost the lower rail of the one-year upward-sloping channel (pink circle), obviously a very bearish development. As time moves along, price will want to back kiss the trend line failure at 1678-1682. If/when price bounces, it may form a right shoulder for an H&S. The negative divergence spank down (red arrow) continues. The indicators are weak and bleak (red lines) wanting to see lower lows in the SPX even after any bounce would occur for a day or three. S&P futures point to a higher start today. Interesting support levels that may be explored in the days and weeks ahead are 1627, 1576 and 1552-1553. Projection is a move sideways through the 1649-1685 range as the politicians battle against the debt ceiling deadline. Equities should maintain a sideways to sideways lower bias.

DOW has led this decline all along, and is already testing its 200MA for the first time this year. If we continue to see no debt resolution, do you suppose the SPX might test its own 200MA (1598) next week?
ReplyDeleteVery interesting. Yep, that is a valid point. Folks must be running from the dividend stock bubble. The general's are crumbling.
