OUTLOOK: Price Signal Summary - EUROSTOXX50 Recovery Extends

Sep-15 10:30
  • In the equity space, a bull cycle in S&P E-Minis remains intact and last week’s fresh cycle highs reinforce current conditions. The move higher confirms a resumption of the primary uptrend and maintains the bullish price sequence of higher highs and higher lows. Sights are on the 6685.25, a 1.00 projection of the Aug 1 - 15 - 20 price swing, and the 6700.00 handle. Initial support to watch is 6547.03, the 20-day EMA. A corrective bear cycle in EUROSTOXX 50 futures remains in play. Recent weakness resulted in a breach of 5370.21, the 50-day EMA. A clear break of this average strengthens a short-term bearish threat and signals scope for a deeper retracement towards 5166.00, the Aug 1 low and a key support. On the upside, the contract has recovered above the 20-day EMA - a bullish development for now. A stronger rally would expose 5522.0, the Aug 26 high.

Also, moving average studies are in a bull-mode position, highlighting a dominant uptrend. This suggests scope for  an extension through 114-00 next and a test of 114-10, the Apr 7 high (cont). Initial firm support to watch is 112-23+, the 20-day EMA.
