Eurostoxx Future Outlook Bearish Despite Recovery From Yesterday's Low

The Eurostoxx 50 futures outlook remains bearish despite yesterday's rebound from the session low - short-term gains are considered corrective. The recent break of the 4000.00 handle signals scope for weakness towards 3865.00, the Jan 4 low and further out towards the 3800.00 handle. Initial resistance is seen at 4123.00, the 20-day EMA. Key resistance has been defined at 4268.00, the Mar 6 high. The trend condition in S&P E-Minis remains bearish despite the latest recovery - a correction. Price has recently cleared a key support at 3960.75, the Mar 2 low, to confirm a resumption of the bear cycle that started Feb 2. The move lower signals scope for an extension towards 3822.00 next, the Dec 22 low. Initial firm resistance is seen at 4025.01, the 50-day EMA. A break of this average would alter the picture.
