OUTLOOK: Price Signal Summary - Key Support In EUROSTOXX50 Futures Intact

Nov-10 10:36
  • In the equity space, the trend condition in S&P E-Minis remains bullish and the pullback since the Oct 30 high appears corrective. The contract has managed to find support below the 50-day EMA, currently at 6710.28 and a key support. Friday’s activity also highlights a potential reversal signal - a bullish doji candle. This defines key support at 6655.50, the Oct 7 low. A continuation higher would signal the end of a correction and open 6953.75, Oct 30 high and bull trigger.
  • A medium-term bull trend in EUROSTOXX 50 futures remains intact and recent weakness is considered corrective. Price has managed to find support below two important price points; the 50-day EMA, at 5576.77, and 5571.50, the base of a bull channel drawn from the Aug 1 low. A clear break of both levels would strengthen a bear theme and highlight a stronger reversal. The bull trigger is 5742.00, the Oct 29 high.
