The S&P 500 E-mini futures (ES) remain in a strong uptrend, currently trading at 6,282.50, just shy of the recent all-time high breakout level of 6,380.50. While bulls maintain control, today’s chart shows the index pulling back modestly, hinting at some momentum exhaustion near the highs.
Despite the softness, the price remains well above key support levels and the ascending trendline from April remains intact.
