SPX &P 500 60-Minute Chart 200 EMA Cross

Stocks should remain bearish for the hours and days ahead with the SPX under the 200 EMA at 2169. Bulls got nothing unless they move SPX above 2169.

The brown lines show a sideways channel at 2164-2185 in play. Price fell through the bottom rail and then recovered to back kiss the bottom trend line yesterday. The indicators are long and strong wanting to see matching or higher price highs once any pull back occurs in the hourly time frame so it appears that a test of the critical 200 EMA at 2169 is likely. Price will bounce or die from the 200 EMA and tell the story forward.

Key S/R is 2169-2171 (200 EMA on 60-minute 2169; September begins at 2171), 2164-2165 (price resistance 2164; 50-day MA at 2165), 2156-2157, 2152 and 2135. The SPX begins Tuesday at 2159.

During OpEx each week, stocks usually rally from a Tuesday low to a Wednesday high.
