TODAY’S FACTORS AND EVENTS

In order to get more confident with regards to further declines, we would like to see a decisive dip below 12340, a support defined by the inside swing highs of June 24th and 27th. Such a move may set the stage for extensions towards the 12205 zone, marked by the low of June 27th, the break of which may allow the bears to put the 12140 zone on their radars, which is a support defined by the inside swing high of June 17th.

Taking a look at our short-term oscillators, we see that the RSI turned down again and just touched its 30 line. It could fall below that line any time now. The MACD lies below both its zero and trigger lines and points somewhat down. Both indicators detect downside speed and support the notion for the index to continue trading lower for a while more.
