S&P500 (ES) Consolidates Just Above Weekly Chart Downchannel Resistance

The S&P500 (ES) is trying to firm, but remains vulnerable this week to a deepening in the consolidation that began Friday. Although the February high formed Thursday has been slightly higher than the January and December highs, a slide back (this week) below the psychologically key 4k whole figure level and the uptrend support (on the weekly chart) connecting the October and December lows would keep alive the possibility (albeit moderately unlikely for now) that the break above the weekly chart downchannel resistance was a Bear Trap…

S&P500 (ES) Testing Weekly Chart Downchannel Resistance

The S&P500 (ES) is consolidating after the strong reversal off the Wednesday Hammer low, hesitating as it bumps against downchannel resistance (on the weekly chart).

Wheat (ZW) is starting the week consolidating for a 3rd straight day near the 2022 low, remaining vulnerable to a deeper slide towards descending wedge support (on the weekly chart) in January. With ZW below the 61.8% Fib retrace of the September 2016 to March 2022 bull market (as can be seen on a monthly chart on tradingview.com), ZW is moderately vulnerable to sliding back to the 2021 low just below the psychologically key 600 whole figure level sometime in Q1…
