The Tech Wizard notes the US S&P 500 futures price has been in a strong uptrend for the last 12 months. After a sell-off in May the SP bounce back strongly to recover all the losses and put in a new high. We are now at critical levels and push through 1720 and a weekly close in the next few weeks above 1740 will target a push to 1800.
Rejection from this level isn’t a good sign at all, the Wiz suggests, and a break back through 1700 on a weekly closing basis will trigger stop loss selling, targeting 1600.
The MACD is showing divergence between the May high and now but technical analysis is a windsock not a crystal ball. Only time and the breaking of key levels will tell…
