The September NASDAQ 100 closed sharply higher on Friday as it extended the rebound off Wednesday's low. The high-range close sets the stage for a steady to higher opening when Monday's night session begins trading. Stochastics and
the RSI are turning neutral to bullish signaling that sideways to higher prices are possible near-term. If September extends today's rally, the reaction high crossing at 2658.00 is the next upside target. Closes below would confirm that a trend change has taken place while opening the door for sideways to lower prices near-term. First resistance is the reaction high crossing at 2658.00. Second resistance is the May 4th gap crossing at 2686.50. First support is the reaction low crossing near 2516.50. Second support is the reaction low crossing at 2503.50.
The September S&P 500 index closed sharply higher on Friday and above the previous reaction high crossing at 1375.70 thereby renewing the rally off June's low. The high-range close sets the stage for a steady to higher opening on Monday. Stochastics and the RSI are turning neutral to bullish signaling that sideways to higher prices are possible near-term. If September extends this week's rally, May's high crossing at 1395.50 is the next upside target. Closes below the reaction low crossing at 1320.00 would confirm an end to this summer's rally while opening the door for a larger-degree decline into early August.
