Technical Analysis

SPX near term risk to reward is less attractive above SPX 4,500 (overshooting), with a game plan to buy a pullback. Macro bullish to buy the US on September weakness, if seasonality is a guide and the RSI top zone works.Our recent long at 4,370 was trimmed at 4,500+ with overshoot risk to projection at 4,545 (met). A fresh trade higher hinges on the hourly flat range breaking higher with 4,518 pivot support. Even the bad jobs report did not break this level (bullish tactical lean).Tactical bias is for the flat to break higher while the September risk cycle favors selling strength. 4,518/15 is the bull/bear pivot.
