Australia 200 Market Sits Back on the 9-day EMA

On the ASX 200 daily chart, one can see that recent price action has been crawling above the 9-day Exponential Moving Average. This has been happening throughout the week, but on Friday the market rejected downward, bringing the price to close while testing support at the 9-day EMA.

Likewise, the Stochastic Relative Strength Index (SRSI) indicator lines have risen deep into the overbought region. The lines are also converging for an upward crossover, which aligns with the appearance of the latest price candle on the chart.

ASX 200 Headwinds Look Weak

Even on shorter time frames, the Australia 200 price action isn’t moving significantly. The latest candle is a red one, showing only a negligible decline.

However, the most recent candle has appeared below the 9-day EMA curve. Meanwhile, the SRSI indicator lines are dropping rapidly into the oversold region despite minimal price declines.

This suggests that the current headwinds are weak and may soon lose their grip, giving room for bullish forces to push toward the 8,700 price level.
