• In the equity space, a sharp sell-off in S&P E-Minis on Friday appears corrective - for now. The contract has found support below the 50-day EMA, currently at 6602.32, and last Friday’s low of 6940.25 has been defined as a key short-term support. Note that moving average studies are in a bull-mode position, highlighting a dominant uptrend. The bull trigger is 6812.25, the Sep 9 high. A breach of this hurdle would confirm a resumption of the uptrend.
• The trend condition in EUROSTOXX 50 futures is unchanged, the direction is up and the latest pullback is - for now - considered corrective. The key support zone to monitor is 5552.07 - 5478.12, the area between the 20- and 50-day EMAs. A clear break of the 50-day average would highlight a stronger reversal. On the upside, the bull trigger has been defined at 5689.00, the Oct 2 high. Clearance of this hurdle would confirm a resumption of the uptrend.
