The break below 16,000 seemed to have put the spotlight again on a prior low at around 15,800, as the level appears to be acting as support again, stalling further downside momentum for the moment. A move below might put the focus on the 15,380 support followed by a longer term range bottom around 15,000.
The index seems to test the trend line and the 16,000 level for resistance. If price can manage a break above, levels of interest could be the 16,500 level on a “support turned resistance” basis, followed by the 16,776 level and the 17,000 handle, with the big range resistance zone at around 17,650 lurking at the top.
