JSE Top 40 Index: Upward Momentum Slowing - Thursday, 29 August 2024

Writer: Lester DavidsLester Davids
  • Pre-Market

  • My note last week Thursday highlighted the index entering an overbought range.

  • On the same day, the index rally, then failed to hold it's highs and has since seen it's candle structure deteriorate, reflecting sellers starting to step up.

  • The 77200-77300 has acted as a strong resistance zone, with yesterday (Wednesday's candle structure also reflecting a loss of upward momentum.

  • As noted in the Monday's note, the 21-day EMA is a 'next level of interest' for short term buyers.

  • Below is yesterday's end of day reading via the Tactical Trading Guide.




Monday's pre-market slide is shown below. The price action aligns with the readings.
