S&P 500 Index Expected Move Towards 4450

Updated
Trend Analysis
The main view of this trade idea is on the 2-Hour. The S&P 500 e-mini futures (ES1!) appears to have broken out of its symmetrical triangle. This presents a buying opportunity on the futures contract. Expectations are for a short-term rally towards 4450, 0.72% away from the time of publishing. A indication of a failure of this breakout will be a decline towards 4375.

Technical Indicators
To support the potential breakout in ES1!, is the fact that at the time of publishing the instrument is trading above its short (25-SMA), medium (75-SMA) and fractal moving averages. Also there has been a positive crossover on the KST as well as the RSI is above 50 and not yet above the overbought 70 price level.

Recommendation
The recommendation will be to go long at market. Traders can monitor in the short term timeframe and identify a better price point closer to the resistance line (red line in chart) of the symmetrical triangle pattern. ES!1’s target price is around 4450, with an indicative stop loss around 4375.
