(M4) Resistance Remains Exposed

SCHATZ TECHS
  • RES 4: 105.790 High Mar 25 and key resistance
  • RES 3: 105.680 High Apr 12
  • RES 2: 105.498 50-day EMA
  • RES 1: 105.395 High May 3
  • PRICE: 105.270 @ 05:50 BST May 17
  • SUP 1: 105.150/045 Low May 14 / Low Apr 30 and the bear trigger
  • SUP 2: 105.000 Round number support
  • SUP 3: 104.917 1.764 proj of the Aug 8 - Mar 18 - Mar 25 price swing
  • SUP 4: 104.800 2.00 proj of the Mar 8 - 18 - 25 price swing

The trend direction in Schatz futures remains down, however, this week’s move higher has exposed key short-term resistance at 105.395, the May 3 high. A clear break of this hurdle would highlight a potential reversal and expose resistance at the 50-day EMA, at 105.498. Clearance of this average would strengthen a bullish condition. Key support to watch lies at 105.150, the May 14 low. A break would instead signal a resumption of the bear trend.
