Hang Seng Index (Daily Outlook for Fri, 15 May) – Pull-back before bounce up towards 27840

Hong Kong (1 hour)_15 May 2015(Click to enlarge chart)

What happened yesterday

The Hong Kong 40 Index (proxy for the Hang Seng Index) has pushed higher from the 27170/27100 as expected in the overnight session.

Please click on this link for a recap on our previous daily outlook.

Key elements

  • The hourly Stochastic oscillator has just exited from its overbought region and still has room for further downside potential before reaching its “extreme” oversold level.
  • The Index is capped below by a short-term trendline resistance joining the highs since 27 April 2015 at 27840.

Key levels

Pivot (key support): 27170/27100

Resistance: 27840 & 28060

Next support: 26900

Conclusion

Observation from the hourly Stochastic oscillator suggests that the Index is likely to see a pull-back first above the 27170/27100 daily pivotal support before a potential push up towards 27840.

However, failure to hold above 27170 may invalidate the expected push up scenario for a further slide to test the 26900 weekly pivotal support.
