Short-Term Trend Condition in E-Mini S&P Remains Bearish

EQUITIES

Eurostoxx 50 futures traded to a fresh cycle low Friday, before recovering. Despite the bounce, a bearish corrective cycle remains in play and the move down this month has allowed an overbought trend condition to unwind. The contract has traded through 4860.60, the 50-day EMA. A clear break of this average would signal scope for a deeper retracement and opens 4711.00, Feb 19 low. Initial firm resistance is 4923.80, the 20-day EMA. The short-term trend condition in S&P E-Minis is unchanged and remains bearish. Friday’s extension reinforces current short-term conditions. The contract has recently cleared support at the 50-day EMA, signalling scope for a continuation lower near-term. Sights are on 4907.57 next, a Fibonacci retracement. Firm resistance is seen at 5153.25, the 20-day EMA. A clear break of the average would signal a possible reversal.
