S&P 500 index chart
The daily bar chart pattern of S&P 500 continued its correction from the Apr 20 top of 2111. On Mon. May 2, the index bounced up to close above the 20 day EMA and the 2080 level. Bears used the opportunity to sell.
The index dropped to seek support from its 50 day EMA. On Fri. May 6, the index slipped below its 50 day EMA and the 2040 level intra-day, but bounced up to close at 2057 - forming a 'reversal day' pattern (lower low, higher close).
Daily technical indicators are looking bearish - suggesting that the correction may not be over yet. MACD is falling below its signal line in positive zone. RSI has crossed below its 50% level, but showing signs of turning up. Slow stochastic has entered its oversold zone.
An upward bounce is possible from current level. Bears may use it to sell again.
On longer term weekly chart (not shown), the index closed above its three weekly EMAs in a long-term bull market for the 9th week in a row. Weekly technical indicators are showing downward momentum.
