S&P 500 chart analysis

Wednesday, October 23rd, was very inactive for the S&P 500 as we saw a drop to 5761.8. The previous support at the 5840.0 level did not hold, and a pullback followed. After the new low, the index managed to start a bullish consolidation up to the 5820.0 level. There, we encountered the EMA 200 moving average, which did not allow us to continue on the bullish side, but a new pullback was initiated.

This time, we get support at the 2785.0 level. During this morning’s Asian session, the S&P 500 managed to stabilize and jump over the EMA 200 moving average. It would be nice to stay up there until the end of this week’s session to put us in a good position for next week. Potential higher targets are 5840.0 and 5850.0 levels. For a bearish option, we need a negative consolidation of the S&P 500 below the 5810.0 daily open level. With that step, we strengthen the bearish momentum, and it remains for the index to continue its retreat. Potential lower targets are 5800.0 and 5790.0 levels.

 

Nasdaq chart analysis

The Nasdaq was under a lot of pressure on Wednesday, October 23, and we saw a drop to 19936.3. After the formation of a new low, the index begins to recover and returns above the 20000.0 level. During this morning’s Asian session we get new support at 20250.0. In that zone, the EMA 200 creates additional support, and the Nasdaq continues up to the 20300.0 level. We are a little short of reaching the weekly open level and moving to the positive side.

Potential higher targets are 20400.0 and 20450.0 levels. For a bearish option, it is necessary for the Nasdaq to pull back below the daily open level. This moves us below the EMA 200 moving average. After that, we expect the rise of bearish momentum and the formation of a new daily low. Potential lower targets are 20200.0 and 20150.0 levels.
