The forecast for the Dow Jones 30 remains cautiously bearish after this equity index retreated from all-time highs during the start of earnings season. The Dow Jones 30 now trades below its flat Tenkan-sen and below its upward-drifting Kijun-sen. The Senkou Span A and the Senkou Span B of the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo Cloud move higher in a narrow band and are vulnerable to a bearish crossover with rising selling pressure. Traders should also monitor the CCI following a double breakdown from extreme overbought territory and below zero. This technical indicator has plenty of downside potential to lead price action lower. Can bears maintain control over the Dow Jones 30 and pressure this equity index into its horizontal support area?
