Key elements

  • Current price action is coming close to the pull-back support of the “Double Bottom” bullish breakout at 1992 which is also our current weekly pivotal support.
  • The daily (medium-term) and hourly (short-term) RSI oscillators are still hold above their respective supports.
  • The next support to watch will be at 1958/1950 which is defined by the trendline support (in orange) in place from the 29 September 2015 low and the 50% Fibonacci retracement of the up move from 02 October 2015 low to yesterday’s 13 October 2015 high.
  • The significant resistance rests at 2040/2050 which is the pull-back resistance of the former swing lows from 11 March to 05 June 2015 and the 200-day Moving Average.

Key levels (1 to 3 days)

Pivot (key support): 1992 (weekly pivot)

Resistance: 2040/2050

Next support: 1958/1950

Conclusion

Technical elements are still positive and as long as the 1992 weekly pivotal support holds, the Index is likely to see a recovery to target the 2040/2050 significant resistance zone.

On the flipside, a crack below the 1992 key pivotal support may invalidate the recovery scenario to see a deeper slide to test the next support at 1958/1950
