S&P500 Technical Analysis: Bulls losing the grip as stocks fall heavily to 2,834.00

  • The S&P500 is trading in a bull trend, however, bears have taken over in a strong pullback down.
  • The S&P500 broke below the bull trendline and the 200-period simple moving average on the 4-hour chart and is currently trying to stabilize as the Index dropped by almost twice its usual average daily range.
  • Bargain hunters are buying at discounted prices but given the strong sell-off, the market might start a sideways consolidation before any meaningful move. The bias remaisn tilted to the downside as indicators are bearishly configured.
