Can the TSX Index break the downward sloping trendline?
The TSX Index has a negative technical profile. The intermediate trend is down and the index trades below the 50-day, 100-day and 200-day simple moving averages. And, the 50-day moving average is below the 100-day and 200-day moving averages. And, the TSX Index trades below the downward sloping trendline. Also, the RSI is trending down and is below 50. Resistance is at the 12,000 level with current support for the lateral band at 11,500. Major support is at the 11,000 level.
Reference my last chart analysis for the TSX Index based on the weekly chart.
