US - S&P 500 - Triple Screen 'Technical Analysis' - Handle Channel - Week 5 of December 2015.











Learning from last Week:  (click here for the previous post)


Patterns:
.
  • The combination of the Big 'W' and the new Day Channel #D1, make a neat 'Cup and handle' pattern. Price oscillating in the Handle (or Day Channel) #D1 for the past couple of weeks.
Support & Resistance:
  • Index again took off from support at the Channel bottom on the Day Chart #D1 - it  again faced resistance at the daily 34 MVWAP #D1.
Moving Averages:  
    • The 5 EMA and 13 SMA, on the Weekly Screen remains crossed bearishly, with the index below 2088 #W1.
    Indicators:
    • RSI 13, above the 50s  #W2.  


    Wrap:
    Bears again hold the index to a lower high #D1.
    Bulls keep index in the 'Handle' of the 'Cup and Handle' pattern #D1.




    Looking forward into this Week:

    Patterns:
    • The 'W' pattern on the Day Chart is still in play (Study Links herehere or elsewhere) #D1.
    • A 'Cup and Handle' pattern is active on the charts #D1, #W1 & #M1 (Study Links herehere or elsewhere) so long as a Handle is viable on any relevant time frame.
    Support & Resistance: 
    • Day Channel bottom (pink) #D1 is support.  Index Resistance for a Bull break through is the is the Day Channel's Top #D1,
    Moving Averages:
    • Death Cross on the EOD, is active as long as the 50 SMA and the 200 SMA stay crossed Bearishly (Study Links herehere or elsewhere) #D1,
    Indicators:
    • STS in middle ground #D2.


    Wrap:

    Bulls hope for rewards from the big 'W' pattern #D1, with a breakout from the ATH #M1.

    Bears push for a breakdown at the handle or the Day Channel #D1..
