  • SUP 3: 5092.00 Low May 2
  • SUP 4: 5020 Low Apr 19 and a key support

S&P E-Minis traded lower on Aug 5 and this confirmed an extension of the bear cycle. The move down has resulted in a print below 5185.50, 76.4% of the Apr 19 - Jul 16 bear leg. A clear break of this level would open 5092.00 next, the May 2 low. Short-term gains are - for now - considered corrective and the 50-day EMA marks a firm resistance, at 5460.55. Clearance of this average is required to alter the picture.
