SPX, Gold, Oil And G6 Targets For The Week Of January 27

Last week we pointed out that despite the overextended nature of the current SPX trend, momentum remained strong, and was supportive of higher prices. The index made a new high on Tuesday, and lower highs on Wednesday and Thursday, before selling prevailed on Friday, and the SPX printed an outside reversal pattern.

As a result, we start the new week with a mixed technical outlook. The daily pattern turned bearish, while the weekly trend remains unchanged. Therefore, a lot will depend on how the week starts, and whether selling pressure continues to intensify and the index drops below support at the weekly pivot line at 3280. If the weekly trend turns bearish, one can expect on average three to four weeks of selling action. As long as the index doesn’t drop more than 5-6%, such bearish action should be viewed as an overdue and timely correction, since the uptrend which started in July ’19 will remain intact:

Going forward, we’ll make a slight change in the way we present the weekly targets, and will use the daily pivot to split the range, in order to better highlight the bullish and bearish zones:
