The index is trapped in an accumulation triangle.
In the short term, I am bearish, believing that August and September will maintain the seasonality of poor returns.
It seems quite clear to me that after being rejected at the top of the triangle, profits are being distributed. Bulls are waiting for a touch at the base of the structure to position themselves again.
Seasonality and simple technical evidence appear to be combined here.
Based on historical statistics of cycles and returns, there is also a good probability for the index to reach new highs in the next 12 months.
For these and other reasons, I have maintained this strategy since June 2022.
