Looking at the H4 interval, one can see that the head and shoulders pattern surfaced on the chart. Taking this into account, the continuation of a downward move is possible. According to the classic technical analysis, as long as the price sits below the neckline of the aforementioned formation (red line on the chart below), the market bearss are at advantage. Considering the bearish scenario, the nearest support can be found at 14,100 pts where previous price reactions are located. In case of a bigger sell-off, the area at 13,780 pts should be considered the next support.

OIL
Next, let’s look at the oil market. Oil price is stuck in a local consolidation move. Looking at the chart on the H1 interval, we can see that buyers managed to keep the price above the $103.40 per barrel. Nevertheless, they did not manage to break through the resistance at $112.00. As long as the price remains between the aforementioned levels, the base scenario is for continuation of a sideways move. Breakout will determine the direction of the next big move.

US100
Last but not least, let’s take a look at the US100 chart. US index has been trading in an upward move recently. However, the upward momentum weakened at the end of March and downward correction started. Currently we are observing an attempt to break through an important support zone at 14,670 - 14,725. However, if buyers manage to get the zone defended, resumption of an upward movement is possible. On the other hand, if a downward move deepens further, the next support to watch lies at the 14,380 pts, where the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement is located.
