Will the Shanghai Composite Break Through 3,400 Next Week?

by changzheng25

Three Critical Factors That Will Determine the Market’s Next Move

The SSE Composite’s four-day winning streak has brought it within striking distance of the psychologically important 3,400 level, but Friday’s tepid ¥452.7 billion turnover and sector divergence suggest the breakthrough attempt may require stronger catalysts in the coming week.

Today’s Market Snapshot

Index Change Key Observation
SSE Composite +0.04% (3,385.36) Failed test of 3,391 resistance
SZSE Component -0.19% (10,183.70) Tech weakness persists
Turnover ¥1.15T (-10.7% YoY) Below breakout threshold

Technical Perspective

    • RSI at 58 (neutral territory)
  • Key Resistance:
    1. 3,391 (June 6 high)
    2. 3,400 psychological barrier
    3. 3,417 (year-to-date peak)
  • Volume Requirement: ¥750B+ for sustainable breakout

Breakthrough Prerequisites

Factor Current Status Threshold for Breakout
Policy Support Neutral Market-recognized stimulus
Brokerage Sector Underperforming (-1.4%) Sustained leadership
Trading Volume ¥452.7B (SSE) ¥750B+ sustained

Historical Context

The 3,400 level has served as both support and resistance in 2024:

  • April: Rejected twice before breakthrough
  • May: Held as support for 7 sessions
  • Current: 4th test this quarter

Strategic Recommendation

  1. Conservative Traders: Wait for confirmed close above 3,400 with volume
  2. Active Traders:
    • Buy pullbacks to 3,370 support
    • Reduce exposure at 3,390-3,400
  3. Sector Focus:
    • Overweight materials/energy
    • Underweight consumer discretionary

The market’s ability to sustain above 3,400 will ultimately depend on whether policy catalysts can emerge to complement the current technical setup, particularly given brokerages’ role as a leading indicator for sustained rallies.
