The ASX 200 broke through long-term resistance at 4450, signaling a primary up-trend with an initial target of 4900*. Rising troughs on 13-week Twiggs Money Flow indicate buying pressure. Retracement to test the new support level remains likely, however, in the next few weeks.
* Target calculation: 4450 + ( 4450 – 4000 ) = 4900
The hourly chart reflects buying pressure, with initial retracement to 4475 after the breakout, instead of the expected 4450. Follow-through above 4500 confirms a strong breakout. At some point in the medium term we are still likely to see a test of the 4450 support level. Respect would confirm a healthy primary up-trend.
