S&P 500 Technical Analysis: Down Move Set to Resume?
DailyFX.com -
Talking Points:
S&P 500 Recovery Falters Below 2000 Figure, as Expected
Prices in Digestion Mode, Overall Positioning Favors Weakness
The S&P 500 is in consolidation mode after turning lower as expected following the appearance of a Hanging Man candlestick. Prices launched a sharp recovery having found support after spiking down to 10-month lows above the 1800 figure. The move higher would prove short-lived however, with sellers swiftly regaining control below the 2000 threshold.
From here, a push below near-term support at 1901.60 marked by the September 1 low exposes the 38.2% Fibonacci expansion at 1881.00. The first key boundary on the topside sits at 1968.30, the December 16 2014 low now recast as resistance. A move above this barrier opens the door for another challenge of the August 28 high at 1995.40.
