Today’s Chart of the Day was shared by Mike Zaccardi (@MikeZaccardi). It’s a daily candlestick chart of the S&P 500 ($SPY) over the past year. The S&P 500 has pulled back about 6% from its recent highs, after being rejected by its downward sloping 200-day moving average a couple of weeks ago. Mike points out that the focus will be on the 50-day moving average this week. This is really the bull’s last line of potential support before we retest the June lows. It’s holding up so far, but if it breaks, it would be further evidence that this Summer truly was a bear market rally. Keep an eye on how this test plays out this week!

#ES_F, daily
4000 happens to be the 50% Fibonacci retracement of the July-August rally. It is a critical level:
– Bulls absolutely need to keep ES > 4000 to have another chance
– If ES drops < 4000 and especially < 3900, the odds of a June low retest will increase dramatically pic.twitter.com/n21iDnMhmP— Yuriy Matso (@yuriymatso) August 29, 2022

I've been bullish energy $XLE a while so I've got my eye on what $XOM does here.
We got a sell off a few months ago which dragged a lot of energy $XOP names lower, so it makes sense to keep a close eye. pic.twitter.com/fxKoE6zkkd— Sam McCallum (@Honeystocks1) August 29, 2022
