ES Weekend Look May (9-13)

Here is a quick look at the S&P going into the week of May 9-13. This is short write up as I have a busy schedule right now. The S&P rallied into and right after the FOMC meeting, but reversed hard the following day after traders fully digested the reality of the Fed no longer having their backs. The S&P closed down for the 5th consecutive week. On the positive side the S&P only finished the week down .22% and did not close below the Feb 22nd low.

Going into this week my bias remains bearish. The longer price continues to test the lows the higher the probability of a break down. If price decides to push up again the 9 ema and the bottom of the neutral remain resistance until broken. If price breaks down below last week's low expect a move to the 1.27 fib extension at 3969. Below that look for full compound corrective move to the 1.618 fib extension at 3800. Of note... a move down to 3800 would complete a 20% pull back putting the S&P into a bear market officially.

Good luck and happy trading.

Keep an eye on these expanding trendlines as they can act as support and resistance.

Similar to NAS this made another leg lower today. Reacted nicely to the first expanding trendline offering a quick 50 point move. Still watching the lower trend line and the 1.618 extension at 3800. I would expect a good sized bounce from the lower level if price gets there.

Sunk to the lower trendline and reversed making a nice 130 bounce. Move up to the 9 ema is possible, but expect resistance at 4000. All zones of resistance have been met with heavy selling so I am cautious of holding too long or adding. Has not touched the 1.618 level yet and price has come just shy of the 20% pullback signifying a bear market.
