I’ve been looking at the resistance trendlines on ES and SPX over my last few posts, and the scenario I was looking at in my post on Friday 6th August that we may be seeing the start of a retracement here that could deliver a 3800 area retest. I was saying that we might well see more highs before that main move started and we’ve seen that.
One resistance trendline that I wasn’t looking at was the rising wedge resistance trendline that has developed over recent weeks and ES is testing that too. Possible daily RSI 5 sell signals are now brewing on ES, SPX and NDX.
ES Sep daily chart:
On the hourly chart SPX is testing rising wedge resistance from the March 2020 low ……….
SPX 60min 20Mo chart:
………. and the wedge resistance trendline from the November low, which is part of the larger wedge resistance trendline.
SPX 60min 10Mo chart:
Weekly RSI 14 and RSI 5 sell signals have already fixed on SPX.
SPX weekly chart:
The NDX resistance trendline hadn’t quite been touched when I captured this chart at the weekend but has had a perfect test shortly after the open this morning.
NDX 60min chart:
So there we have it. Resistance trendlines hit, High quality negative divergence. Everything needed for a high except, so far, the actual turn. Hard to overstate the importance of that of course. We’ll see now if we get that, but the setup is certainly looking good.
