$Australian Stock Market Update $ASX200. This monthly update will analyse the weekly and the daily charts to see the current state of the Australian market.
Australian bank shares sold off in the month of May on the back of a bank levy introduced at the recent Australian Federal Budget. The big 4 banks which are about 25% of the Index, suffered significant sell off. The S&P/ASX 200 Index lost 3.3% in the month of May to finish at 5721.
Below is the weekly chart of the ASX 200 provided by TradingView for this article.
The Australian market has gone through consolidation phase early this year. At the beginning of the May, the market was on an upward trend and just shy of major resistance 5981 but at the end it failed to close above major resistance.
Below is Daily chart of the ASX 200 provided by TradingView.
Overall the ASX 200 index finished the month at 5721. Now the question is will it go again in consolidation phase or will it try to test minor resistance on 5878? If ASX 200 held price above 5700 in the month of June 2017, then we have high probability to test minor resistance. if it goes below 5700 then it may test 5640 level and may go into consolidation phase.
