  • SUP 4: 5355.25 Low Apr 24 

A bullish trend condition in S&P E-Minis remains intact and the latest pullback is considered corrective - for now. Today’s sell-off has resulted in a print below the 20-day EMA, at 5775.85. A key support lies at 5715.60, the 50-day EMA. A clear break of this average is required to highlight a stronger reversal and signal scope for a deeper retracement. A resumption of gains would refocus attention on the bull trigger at 5993.50, the May 20 high.

A reversal higher in S&P E-Minis on Apr 9 highlighted the start of a correction. The trend condition has been oversold following recent weakness and gains have allowed this to unwind. Price has traded above the 20-day EMA, at 5425.57, today. This exposes 5528.75, the Apr 10 high. For bears, a resumption of weakness would refocus attention on 4832.00, the Apr 7 low and bear trigger.
