S&P 500, NASDAQ 100, DOW JONES TECHNICAL OUTLOOK REMAINS POSITIVE
The market has had a strong upward move since last week, and on that the recovery bounce is still intact. It is seen, however, as being a potentially bumpy ride higher as the overall upward trajectory is viewed as countertrend in nature within the context of a bear market move.

This means strength with overlapping price action as the market is unable to garner any real sponsorship, and thus momentum. The S&P 500 is trying to get over a late-June swing high but struggling at the moment. A set back from here will be watched closely for another higher low since the June bottom.

Just ahead lies a slope from early in the year that could act as resistance. It currently clocks in around the 4010 mark. Should we see slope resistance broken look for more strength up towards 4100, with the 4200 area being the most optimistic target before another meaningful high is put into place.

The thinking is that right now we are seeing a summer recovery before a fall swoon that will take the market much lower. It may be during that swoon a meaningful low is put into place, but until we see capitulation any rally that unfolds prior to such an event will continue to be viewed as only corrective and vulnerable to failure.
