Hang Seng bulls eye retest of 18k
Обновлено
We'll admit that the Hang Seng does not have the most bullish of structures among APAC indices, but it continues to defy bears with a break of key support. And if sentiment for global indices picks up as we suspect, it could pave the way for another cheeky long for Hang Seng bulls.
The index has seen three failed attempts to break beneath 17500 since late June. Sure, we saw one daily close below it, but the move was mostly reversed on Monday. A bullish divergence is also forming on the daily RSI (2), hence the bias for another crack at 18k minimum - a break above which brings the June and July highs around 18,400 into focus.
Yet as the 4-hour chart shows prices paused at the weekly pivot point with RSI (2) overbought, we'd prefer to wait to see if prices retrace within Monday's range before seeking longs. This could help improve the reward to risk ratio for bulls whilst prices hold above last week's low, with 18,000 and 18,400 in focus for upside targets.

Заметка
We saw a nice pullback from resistance at the weekly pivot point. Prices are now probing support. Sentiment is not ideal for bullish setups, but that can often be the best time for them (in a contrarian way).
We're looking for prices to hold above the cycle low, and with prices at support it might be the ideal level for a cheeky long with a relatively tight stop.
