China’s Shanghai Composite index retreated below resistance at 2300, from the 2010 low. Expect a down-swing to test the lower trend channel at 2000*. 63-day Twiggs Momentum oscillating below zero indicates a strong primary down-trend.
* Target calculation: 2150 – ( 2300 – 2150 ) = 2000
Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index is more bullish, but retreat below the new support level at 20000 would indicate hesitancy. And breach of the rising (green) trendline would warn of a bull trap — as would respect of the zero line (from below) by 63-day Twiggs Momentum.
* Target calculation: 20 + ( 20 – 18 ) = 22
