I suspect it could be a case of now or never for ASX bulls.

Whilst it suffered its worst day in 9-weeks on Thursday, this could be part of an ABC correction and the 200-day MA is nearby as a probably support level, even if it breaks lower today. Futures markets shows heavy volume occurred around yesterday's lows (bears piled in around the lows) yet sentiment could rise if a debt ceiling deal is reached as reported, forcing a short-covering rally.

Yesterday’s low sits around a 50% retracement and 61.8% projection level, and there is a volume cluster around 7122 during the strong rally which could provide support. Furthermore, RSI (2) is oversold.

The bias is bullish above 7090 (below the 200-day MA) and for its next leg higher to begin.


Trade closed manually:
Hopes of a debt-ceiling deal ahead of the long weekend in the US helped the ASX gap notably higher on the Monday morning.
