  • The S&P500 is showing no sign of recovery suggesting that further losses can be on the cards. The RSI, MACD and Stochastic indicators are bearishly configured. 
  • Supports to the downside can be expected near 2,718.75 (April 17 high), 2,700.00 figure and 2,647.25 (March 2 low) but nothing shows that they should hold.
