Nasdaq finds support from 200 MA - for nowFinancial markets are significantly more stable today. Major indices have rebounded, with all posting gains, especially the Japanese Nikkei, thanks to reassuring remarks from the Deputy Governor of the Bank of Japan yesterday. This optimism has spread across global equity markets, Bitcoin, and metal prices. Furthermore, better-than-anticipated US jobless claims data has eased concerns about a potential economic slowdown in the US. This comes on the heels of a strong ISM services PMI report on Monday, which has offset some of the weaker economic signals from last week.
The Nasdaq 100 has for now stabilised around its 200-day average. But we need to see some more bullish price action to provide a stronger bullish signal. For example, a move above the 18,460 - 18,700 area could further reduce the bears' control. However, if instead the 200 MA breaks on a closing basis, then that could pave the way for fresh selling activity. So we are not out of the woods yet, but today's price action has certainly been constructive if it can be sustained into the close.

ASX 200 hints at Turnaround TuesdayStock markets took quite the beating on Monday on fears of a US recession, and speculation that the Fed may be forced to cut rates as soon as next week. A stronger-than-expected ISM services report slowed the bleeding before Wall Street indices recouped some of their pre-session losses. Nikkei futures have since risen 10% from Monday's low, which could bode well for the ASX 200.
SPI 200 futures saw a false break of the April low and held above the Feb low. A bullish divergence has formed on the 1-hour chart and prices are trying to hold above the weekly S3 pivot. Dips towards 7500 could appeal to countertrend trend for a move up towards 7700.
ASX 200 futures hints at another leg higherThe sharp fall from its record high remains the dominant feature on the daily ASX 200 futures chart. Whilst this is likely to suppress appetite for risk for some time, Tuesday's bullish hammer suggests bears are in need of a break.
The false break of the April low has been followed by a higher low and higher high on the 1-hour chart. Prices are now trying to form another higher low, so dips look appealing for bullish setups down to 7555.
7700 is the next upside target near the 38.2% Fibonacci ratio, although there is also a resistance cluster between 7767 to 7794 which also seems reachable. Whether it can extend such a move really depends on appetite for risk elsewhere.

S&P 500 Daily Chart Analysis For Week of Aug 2, 2024Technical Analysis and Outlook:
The S&P 500 Index (Spooz) displayed notable volatility during the current week's trading session, departing from recent trends. As an analysis of the Weekly Chart for July 26 reveals the index reached the projected Mean Support level of 5402 before surging to the designated target, Mean Res 5567. Upon achieving this target, the Spooz dropped to our selected Inner Index Dip 5345 target like a bad habit. The prevailing price action suggests a sustained uptrend toward the Mean Res 5449 and a possible extension to the Mean Res 5525 in the upcoming week's trading sessions. It is worth noting that these attained targets are likely to exert downward pressure.
