Table 1 shows that, as of the close yesterday (April 7th), 4 of our Asbury 6 key internal market metrics have turned Positive. Four or more metrics in one direction, either Positive (green) or Negative (red), indicate a tactical bias.

Chart 1 below shows that the benchmark S&P 500 (SPX) is in the midst of an aggressive March 23rd rebound from 2193 (green highlights), its August 2016 benchmark high.  Yesterday, it tested — and is thus far holding — initial overhead resistance at 2722 to 2729 (red highlights) which represents the March and June 2019 lows.

Yesterday’s Positive shift in the Asbury 6, if it remains intact, suggests that 2722-2729 resistance will soon be broken and the current rally will continue.

Primary underlying support exists at 2489 (blue highlights) and represents the March 2009 secular uptrend line.
