Hang Seng Index ran out of steam just below 19K not even coming close to the upper falling trendline. Index has resumed downtrend and seems destined for a move down to 17K support.
RSI is showing negative sentiment underlining the bearish picture.
A close above 18,900 will most likely just pause the downtrend. A close above 19,350 is needed to demolish the bearish picture.
55 and 100 Moving Averages are declining providing overhead resistance and underlying bearish sentiment.
Medium-term Hang Seng is forming a falling channel. To reverse the medium-term bearish trend a close above 20,400 is neededHK50 cfd was rejected at the 55 Moving Average just shy of 19K. Downtrend resumed with potential down to around 17K
A close above 18,915 is needed to demolish this bearish picture
JP225 cfd did close above its falling trendline but failed to follow through with a close above 33,400 resistance.
However, JP225 is in an uptrend both short- and medium-term and with the RSI showing positive sentiment on both daily and weekly chart, JP225 is likely to have another go at the resistance at 33,400 shortly. A close above is likely to lead to new highs above June peak at around 34K
