S&P 500 Technical Analysis
The SP500 technical analysis of the price chart on the daily timeframe shows the SP00,Daily is rebounding above the 200-day moving average MA(200) which is rising itself. The SP500 forecast is bullish according to the SP500 chart analysis. We believe the bullish momentum will continue after the price breaches above the upper boundary of Donchian channel at 3883.91. A level above this can be used as an entry point for placing a pending order to buy. The stop loss can be placed below 3690.32. After placing the order, the stop loss is to be moved every day to the next fractal low, following Parabolic indicator signals. Thus, we are changing the expected profit/loss ratio to the breakeven point. If the price meets the stop loss level (3690.32) without reaching the order (3883.91), we recommend cancelling the order: the market has undergone internal changes which were not taken into account
