Last week's previous post for the S&P 500, the all-time high at $4718 was highlighted as the level we want to see broken to confirm a trend continuation.
Price did in fact break this level on November 22nd, but this proved to be a fake breakout. Price moved above $4718 but failed to close above this price.
We can see a mini consolidation in play now, and just below we have the 20 simple moving average.
The 20sma appears to be holding price up for now and providing a level of support. We now want this to be followed by a bounce and another attempt at the $4718 resistance level.
As a new high was created during the fake breakout, we now need to see a break and close above $4743 to confirm a trend continuation.
The overall trend remains bullish, so we are anticipating a breakout to the upside sooner or later.
