STI Update


STI hit a high of 2827 on Thursday but succumbed to selling pressure to close at 2802 on Friday.

Going towards the end of 2009, the index looks to be consolidating at current levels. The technical picture shows the MACD indicator below its signal line which is a bearish signal. The ADX has fallen to around 17 which correspond to the weakening of the uptrend. Short term stochastic is also giving a bearish signal and points to short term weakness.

Support is at 2770 and 2740 respectively. The break above the strong resistance at the 2700 to 2730 range is still valid. This indicates a target of 2900 which looks attainable.
