E-Mini S&Ps Extend Bull Cycle Ahead of FOMC

EQUITIES

Eurostoxx 50 futures traded higher Tuesday. Attention turns to resistance at 4362.00, the May 29 high. Clearance of this level would be a bullish development and signal scope for an extension higher towards key resistance at 4409.50, the Nov 18 2021 high on the continuation chart. The recent break of a number of support levels still highlights a potential bearish threat. A reversal lower would expose 4216.00, May 31 low and bear trigger. S&P E-minis traded higher again Tuesday and the contract is holding on to its latest gains. The break higher confirms a resumption of the uptrend and maintains the bullish price sequence of higher highs and higher lows, marking an extension of the bull cycle that started in October 2022. The focus is on a climb towards 4427.79, a Fibonacci projection. Initial firm support is at 4292.26, the 20-day EMA.
