E-Mini S&P Continues Post-US Inflation Data Advance

EQUITIES

Eurostoxx 50 futures are holding on to this week’s gains. The break higher has resulted in a move above the 50-day EMA at 4331.70 and price is through 4371.00, the Jul 6 high. Clearance of this latter level highlights a potentially stronger bull cycle and attention turns to key resistance and the bull trigger at 4447.00, the Jul 3 high. Key support and the bear trigger has been defined at 4220.00, the Jul 7 low. A bull theme in S&P E-minis remains intact. Yesterday’s gains resulted in a break of resistance at 4498.00, the Jun 30 high. This confirms a resumption of the uptrend and maintains a bullish price sequence of higher highs and higher lows. The contract has also traded through 4500.00 and this opens 4532.08, a Fibonacci projection. First support lies at 4428.89, the 20-day EMA. Clearance of this level would be a short-term bearish development.
