S&P 500 Trading Pivots Target Lower Prices For June

Just when everyone and their dog was getting bullish about retesting the all time highs, a pullback begins to take shape.  Happens every time. This is why I block out the noise and focus on the S&P 500 trading pivots (along with pivots for other major indices and stocks).

The high so far on S&P 500 index in 2016 is at the YearlyR1 Fibonacci Pivot Point. This calculation is different than a standard Fibonacci retracement or extension. Simply google “Fibonacci pivot points” for more info.

Since the S&P 500 Index failed to close above the Fibonacci YearlyR1 Pivot Point, I see potential risk of a bigger pullback down to the Fibonacci and Floor Traders Yearly(P) S&P 500 trading pivot point at 1997. When these happen I call them “Pivot Price Patterns”. This action brings lower price targets into view…

The key level on the S&P 500 that I was watching heading into today was 2075. This level is currently breaking down (note the chart is through yesterday’s close.  A break below 2075 opens the door for a 2047 price target in June and possibly the S&P 500 trading pivot at 1997 by mid-July.

On the other hand, if we see a swift reversal back above 2075 today with follow through, then we may see a 2125 price target by the end of June.
