A sharp sell-off on Aug 24 in the E-mini S&P contract reinforces a bearish theme and signals the end of the Aug 18 - 24 corrective bounce. Short-term gains are considered corrective and attention is on support at 4350.00, the Aug 18 low and bear trigger. A break would confirm a resumption of the current bear cycle. Resistance to watch is 4504.75 - the base of a bull channel, drawn from the Mar 13 low - that was breached on Aug 16.
