THE TAKEAWAY: The US Dollar is probing higher after finding interim support while the S&P 500 has stalled at resistance, but a larger reversal remains unconfirmed for now.
S&P 500 – Prices are testing initial resistance at 1363.90 after completing a bullish inverse Head and Shoulders (H&S) pattern with a break above neckline resistance in the 1334.40-41.90 area. A break above this level exposes 1392.10. Broadly speaking, the H&S setup implies a measured objective at 1419.90, conveniently at the year-to-date closing high. The 1334.40-41.90 region has been recast as support.
