The market may be due for a pause after hitting key resistance levels. Last week’s achievement of the 25,400–600 objective, along with an evening star candle formation, prompts us to look for a pullback. The favoured rest point is 24,880–800, though limited declines could signal sideways moves and eventual recovery. An outright penetration of 25,669 is less expected.
