Technical Indicators Notes:

Yesterday we said "More bearish signs: RSI (4H) turning down, MACD (4H) negative, ATR (4H) start to move up a bit, meaning a bit more volatility, and there the looming double top prospect in the daily chart that will be confirmed when price will move below 1127. Moving SL to 1137 (last high)."
SL triggered by a loss of 2 points in the tremendous (and strange…) move of the index. Triple top? Consolidation? RSI has broken its descending trend line but is returning down and MACD over 0, again (4H). Somehow, it does not look to us that this last day price rebound was for real (in view of the volume down-up day's comparison). But the game is played as it should be and now we wait for our triggers, with a negative bias.
