Dow Jones, S&P 500, Nasdaq 100 Technical Outlook Reaches Pivotal Spot
The S&P 500 simply turned again down from the Feb 2 excessive, maybe forging a stronger ceiling for the market to get via. This comes inside the context of what I consider to be a counter-trend transfer and never the start of one other bull-leg greater.
A decrease excessive from the Jan report excessive is anticipated and will even arrange a nice-looking head-and-shoulders sample, in not solely the SPX however NDX as effectively. It may take some extra time earlier than the restoration bounce is finally completed, however for now working with 4595 as resistance.
To give the draw back some legs and a break is seen as wanted under 4451, the Feb low (making a lower-low), and the 200-day shifting common. The two technical thresholds are at the moment in actual confluence.
At that juncture the potential of a maturing H&S sample involves the forefront with the precise shoulder taking form. It will nonetheless take a break of the neckline (dotted pink line in chart) to totally set off the sample. For now, utilizing each famous short-term ranges as motion factors.

The Nasdaq 100 head-and-shoulders has it in even a extra susceptible spot given the way it tilts decrease on the chart and the truth that the NDX is buying and selling outdoors of the bull channel courting to September 2020. The breaking of the bull channel over the last sell-off is taken into account a big occasion.
In the near-term, the 200-day shifting common is presenting to be problematic as we mentioned final week. The incapability to rise above 15052 and the Feb 2 excessive at 15196 will proceed to make that space a focus as a ceiling and doable proper shoulder to the H&S formation. A breakdown under 14452 will assist tilt the image in direction of a neckline take a look at, in any case.
