Patterns:

• Index breaks out of its range and runs into the ATH (All Time High) and makes a Triple Top #D1.
• March and February candles form a Bearish Harami, with April candle showing green - for most of this month #M1. 

Support & Resistance:

• Index halts at the ATH #M1 & #D1, while support was around the 13 SMA on the EOW #W1.

Moving Averages:

Wrap:

Index again makes a higher high on the Day Chart, Bulls still on top at the ATH with a Third Top #D1.

Looking forward into this Week:

Patterns:

• Bears Struggle to make a Long Term 'Three inside down' after the Bearish Harami - see last three candles #M1 (Study Links here, here or elsewhere) a Triple top on the Short Term may help (Study Links here, here or elsewhere). 
• Bulls look to History (re-look) #M1 & #M3, and the support at the 5 EMA #M1, for a resumption of the Bull run.

Support & Resistance: 

• 5 EMA on the EOW (2095) #W1, is the Index Support that Bears want to get below. 
• Bulls would push for new ATHs and a month close in the green #D1.

Moving Averages:

• If the Index again closes the week above 2066, the 5 EMA and the 13 SMA on the Weekly  Charts, would stay deflected Bullishly #W1.

Indicators:

• TSI, support at the 61.8% Fibonacci retrace, good for the Bulls #M2.

Wrap:

Bulls after reaching the ATH, look for Higher Highs and a resumption of the Bull run #D1.

Bears after triggering a Long term Bearish Harami, look to convert it into a '3 inside down', by closing April below 2068 #M1, with some help from the Triple Top #D1.
