Russell 2000 Futures Next Leg Down -10%

Short
CME_MINI:RTY1!   E-Mini Russell 2000 Index Futures
Russell 2k $RTY1! broke below the 200 EMA on weekly and failed to regain 1800 as support.

As the canary in the coal mine, the Russell 2000 comprises of the 2000 smallest stocks of the Russell 3000 (broad capitalization-weighted stock market index that seeks to be a benchmark of the entire U.S stock market) and provides a solid bellwether for forward facing trends.

Next move is a 10% markdown from 1700 to 1550. From there we will likely see a failure to regain 1600. With Q2 earnings coming and early signs of margin compression in the face of rampant inflation ($NKE earnings revealing some weakness), expecting to see 20 EMA crash below the 200 EMA with the 50 EMA following closely behind.

On balance volume reflecting a downtrend that really gained momentum in late March / early April with no sign of reversing in the near-term.
