E-Mini S&P Trading Near Resistance at 20-Day EMA

EQUITIES

Eurostoxx 50 futures are holding on to their recent gains from 4762.00, the Apr 19 low. The contract has breached the 20-day EMA and resistance at 4990.00, Apr 15 high. This highlights a potentially stronger reversal and signals the end of the correction between Apr 2 - 19. A continuation higher would expose the bull trigger at 5079.00, the Apr 2 high. Key support lies at 4762.00. Initial support to watch is 4874.10, the 50-day EMA. The S/T trend condition in S&P E-Minis remains bearish and the latest recovery appears to be a correction. The contract has recently cleared the 50-day EMA, signalling scope for a continuation lower. A resumption of the bear leg would open 4907.57, a Fibonacci retracement. Firm resistance at 5138.19, the 20-day EMA, has been pierced, a clear break would instead signal a reversal and expose key resistance at 5333.50, the Apr 1 high.
