India’s Sensex is retracing to test its new support level after breaking resistance at 20500 Friday, signaling a primary advance to 22000*. A 13-week Twiggs Money Flow trough above zero indicates buying pressure. Reversal below 19500 is unlikely, but would warn of another test of primary support at 18000.
* Target calculation: 20000 + ( 20000 – 18000 ) = 22000

* Target calculation: 15000 + ( 15000 – 12500 ) = 17500

Singapore’s Straits Times Index appears to be preparing for another test of long-term resistance at 3300. Breakout would signal a primary advance to 3600*.

* Target calculation: 5250 + ( 5250 – 4650 ) = 5850
