SPX Daily Chart Loses 200-Day MA

The 200-day MA is a key moving average that technicians use for a support and resistance level. The bull's have had a two-year party above the 200 but that ended yesterday with price losing the 200-day MA at 1906. More importantly, the SPX lost the 12-month MA at 1895 which ushers in a cyclical bear market. Watch this closely going forward.

The 10-month MA at 1908 was also lost. The 50-week MA at 1888.45 also failed. Yesterday was ugly technical-wise. Note that price is fighting at the 50-week as Tuesday, 10/14/14, trading is underway. The SPX is trading at 1888.29 as this is typed directly on top of the 50-week MA. Use these moving average levels to assess the strength of the recovery rally.
