S&P 500 rally loses upside momentumLast week's swift rally in the S&P 500 is beginning to lose upside momentum with further consolidation perhaps being in store.
A slip through Monday's 6,800 low may lead to the 9 October high at 6,764 being revisited whereas a rise above Tuesday's 6,851 high would likely put the 12 November peak at 6,870 on the map.

While it holds on a daily chart closing basis, the short-term uptrend will remain intact.
Minor resistance above the short-term downtrend line may be spotted at ¥156.21-to-¥156.58.
A rise above the next higher peak at ¥157.89 will likely engage the ¥158.20-to-¥158.55 January highs.
