The financials are facing an important crossroads of time and price. The Bank Index (BKX) has rallied back to the 50 percent fibonacci retracement of the March to June correction. As well, current prices are in and around a wider lateral resistance band. Keep an eye on this band, as a break higher would be bullish.
Note that the 50 day MA (moving average) has turned up and offers initial support, followed by the 200 day MA and uptrend line.
