Dow Jones (US 30) Pullback to Channel SupportChart Analysis:
The Dow Jones Industrial Average remains firmly within an ascending channel (green zone), with the current price nearing key channel support after a pullback.
1️⃣ Ascending Channel:
The price continues to respect the upward-sloping channel, which has been intact since mid-August. The lower boundary, near 43,450, is a critical support level to monitor.
2️⃣ Moving Averages:
50-day SMA (blue): The price is testing this level at 43,514, which aligns with the channel support, acting as confluence.
200-day SMA (red): Positioned at 40,705, reinforcing the broader bullish trend and serving as a long-term support zone.
3️⃣ Momentum Indicators:
RSI: Currently at 39.77, approaching oversold territory. A bounce from this level could signal renewed buying interest.
MACD: Bearish momentum persists, with the MACD line trending downward. However, traders may watch for signs of a crossover near support.
What to Watch:
A successful defense of the ascending channel support and 50-day SMA could provide a foundation for a rebound toward the channel's upper boundary.
If the support fails, the next significant area of interest would be the 42,000 level or the 200-day SMA near 40,705.
RSI movement and MACD signals will be key for confirming shifts in momentum.
The Dow remains within its bullish channel, but traders will be closely watching how price reacts to this critical support zone.
