ASX200: Upside Intact

Technicals | Apr 11 2023

By Michael Gable 

Despite all the negative headlines, we noticed that share markets had looked bullish a couple of weeks ago and we are now seeing a recovery. In months or years to come, if you were to look at a chart of the S&P 500 Index and try to pinpoint when the "great banking crisis of 2023" occurred, you would never pick it. That is a very telling sign from the market. Today's report has a chart of the S&P/ASX 200 index (XJO) to show you how we are interpreting this price action.

We last looked at the XJO back on 21 March where we noted that it was looking like setting up for a bounce with a push above 7000 being the buy trigger. We have since seen a convincing rally off the lows and we expect further upside from here. In the short-term, it is cooling off near 7200, which is a major support level. Once this consolidation is over, the XJO should head higher from here and we would be looking for a retest of the February peak.
