Protective stop:
Outlook
There was a price correction that brought price lower to test its first 20EMA support at 10,860 from its all-time high of 11,291. We see a rebound at this point for a test of its high again. A break of this support zone will hint for deeper correction at 10,310. Stochastic is falling at the moment. MACD is bullish but had a bearish crossover, and could have formed a potential divergence warning.

Recommendation:
Last: 6157
Target price:
Protective stop:
Outlook
This index has been moving within a triangle pattern since early Jun. It is now trading near its upper end of the triangle resistance at 6247. We expect price to continue its consolidation until either end of the triangle is broken. Price has to surpass this level for a breakout and for an upside at 6555, else, we are likely to see price moving lower towards 5950. Stochastic is moving up at the moment and MACD is bullish.
