  • The White Month Channel Top Line sends back the Bulls for the current dip #D1 or #W1.
Moving Averages:  
  • Bulls just about defend the 13 SMA - Index Closes the week at the 13 SMA on the EOW #W1.
  • 5 EMA and 13 SMA cross bearishly on the EOD charts #D1.
  • 34 MVWAP gives way to the Bear attack on the Day charts #D1. 
Indicators:

  • Stochastic 34 3 4 (now on EOD) dips below oversold  #D2.
  • Oscillator (now on EOM) dips below oversold - see earlier dips too #M2.


Bears take the Short Term Screen.




Looking forward into the next Week:


Patterns:
  • On the Medium Term Chart the Three Inside Down we studied last week is still on #W1. (Study Links herehere or anywhere else.)
Support & Resistance:
  • New All Time High and all the Channel Tops Red, Blue and White #D1, are the next resistances for the Bulls.The 76.4% Fibonacci Retrace #M1 - is the next major support. 
  • We also have the 34 MVWAP on the Day Chart #D1 and 34 MVWAP on the Week Chart #W1 as closer Resistance and Support respectively. 
Moving Averages:
  • Staying above the 5 EMA on the EOM #M1 - shows long term strength of the Bulls.
  • 5 EMA & 13 SMA  on the Medium Term Charts #W1 -  poised to cross Bearishly - to be watched.
  • Getting below the 13 SMA on the Week Charts - EOW #W1 important for Bears.
Indicators:
  • Oscillator #M2 keeping below oversold favors the Bears - notice that its repeating what it did in previous attempts.
  • RSI sliding below its MA and the negative divergence to Price works for the Bears #W1



Bears look to the 'Three Inside Down' #W1 giving more gains, Bulls look for life above the 34 MVWAP on the EOD #D1.

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

Patterns:

  • On the Medium Term EOW #3, the 'High Wave' Candle studied few weeks ago, gives the Bears even more honey.
  • June's 'Hanging Man' Candle & May's Shooting Star on the Long Term EOM #1 Charts - gave Bears support from July End..
Support & Resistance:
  • The 61.8% Fibonacci retrace of the 'Jan'12 low to All time high' fails again last week  #5.
  • Index bounces off our Day Channel's bottom #5 exactly once more
  • 5655 cleared by the Bulls until Friday last - retaken by Bears emphatically.
Moving Averages:
  • 50 SMA and 200 SMA stay crossed bearishly in a Death Cross #5. 
  • Index again takes support on the stable 34 EMA, on the Long Term Chart  #5.
Indicators:
  • 'Trend Deviation' Indicator #2 on the long term charts show Bulls slipping below the center line.
  • MACD Histogram ticks up,  MACD and its MA look at meeting up #6.
  • STS #4 dives into the oversold after 18 odd months.



Bears ride the 'High Wave' #3 to a Death Cross #5 and stay strong...




Looking Forward into the next Week:

Patterns:

Support & Resistance:
  • The 200 SMA #5 is now resistance - for the Bulls.
  • The 50% Fibonacci retrace of the 'Jan'12 low to All time high' is the next available support for the Bulls #5.
Moving Averages:
  • 200 SMA and 50 SMA on the Day Charts remaining Bearishly Crossed #5 keeps the Bulls under pressure, as seen on Friday last.. 
  • 13 SMA and 5 EMA on the Long Term #1 are currently Bearishly Crossed (Index below 5655) it can Bullishly Deflect if Index gets above 5655 for August.  
  • 13 SMA and 5 EMA on the Short Term #5 Bearishly Deflected last Week - a Bullish Cross would be just the impetus for the Bulls to get back some ground.
Indicators:
  • 'Trend Deviation' Indicator #2 could see the Index bounce of its center line for a new Bull run if the Bulls get to stay above it from August.



Bulls want life above 5655 and a Golden Cross -  Bears again wish to crack the 34 EMA #1 and the EOD Channel bottom #5.
