Technical Analysis Brief

Each week, we review the S&P 500 (in order to provide a consistent, technical narrative for the overall market), as well as a select equity and an asset from the broader market.

S&P 500: $SPX | daily

The bounce continues here since we shared the ~4,800 long term support test with clients at the April lows. Now, this is coming into some pretty big resistance with the 200 day MA and the 5,770-5,790 pivot above. The trend remains higher, but we are proceeding with caution short term — strength over ~5,800 really opens this chart up, however.

Walt Disney Company: $DIS | monthly

Incredible bounce within this chart since we noted the $78-$81 long term support test with our clients at the April lows. So far, we have seen a +35% bounce — but price remains stuck within this 3-year consolidation between $78-$120.

WTI Crude Oil: $USOIL | weekly

+4.52% last week, but still trading below a very important pivo level. If we do see continuation from last week’s strength, the important level to continue to monitor is the $65-$67 pivot above (previously broken support).
