S&P 500 Monthly (Cash) - 1st big test of Macro Support

SP:SPX   S&P 500 Index
Please refer to the attached chart (best viewed on a desktop PC screen).

The 1st big test of Macro support levels is occurring now. Failure to hold here could see could see a flush down to approx. 3500, in the worst case.

Best case scenario would be to hold Macro support here, allowing for a few hair raising probes through the support lines, perhaps, and then consolidate further to form a base into roughly the fall season (? – drawn out Ukrainian invasion and stubborn inflation).

The most sensitive momentum measure (%R – bottom panel) is fairly deep in maximum oversold territory now but the longer term momentum measures (MACD & Stoch – 1st and 2nd panels below chart) appear to need more time to round into a bottom before turning up. Somewhat more supportive of the best case scenario, further consolidation. Traders/Investors should monitor Daily & particularly Weekly momentum measures now for signs of bottoming and crossovers to the upside with the view to a potential trading range developing.

Note: The projected pathway of the momentum measures was instituted last fall and has not been altered since then.
