S&P500 (ES) uptrend may still be intact
Recent price action on S&P futures suggests a potential rollover happening now, particularly after today's sell-off. This downturn began after the index peaked at 5,333.5 on April 1, 2024. Despite this, the upcoming Federal Reserve meeting and forthcoming high-profile earnings reports, such as NVDA's in late May, add layers of uncertainty. Notably, NVDA has recently become a pivotal indicator not only for the AI and broader tech sectors but also for the general economy.
Taking a longer-term perspective, the S&P futures have maintained an uptrend, connecting a support trendline from a previous low of 4,122 on October 27, 2023, to the April 19, 2024, pullback at 4,963. This suggests that the trend remains intact, possibly ready to rebound from the support line and continue its upward trajectory.
In conclusion, while recent market behavior might suggest the beginning of a rollover, the increased market volatility means that stricter interpretation of technical indicators may not be as reliable until the noise subsides. Therefore, a broader perspective might be necessary to accurately assess trend behaviors. But it's important not to continuously adjust this perspective to justify an ongoing uptrend, especially considering the seasonal strategy of 'sell in May and go away,' which could still prove prudent in the coming weeks.

Today's failed rally attempt post Fed comments not reassuring for continuation of the broader uptrend as price finished on the bottom of the range today. But it's basically right where it closed yesterday after the intraday volatility. Still in wait and see mode if it will breakdown from here, or recover. I feel it may be a bit sideways in the coming couple of weeks until earnings season finishes up, but outcome from key companies could be the swing factor.

We got the bounce of the lower channel. Current target is around 5250, where it previously started to drop off 4/12/24
