Sell in May and Go Away or Buy in May and Fly Away
March and April ended in red - May' s fate rests on the heavy weights DBS, OCBC, UOB and Singtel (Combined > 58% weightage)

.STI did not get the chance to test the 100EMA today, closing 51 points above yesterday.
On the weekly chart, a hammer has formed - a positive sign that bodes well for next week, barring weak results from UOB and OCBC.

Let&rsquo s see if STI can find a bottom at the 100EMA or the 0.618 Fibonacci level around 4,830.
RSI is sliding toward the oversold region, so STI' s move in the next few trading sessions will be telling.
On 24 Apr, the weekly chart printed a bearish engulfing candlestick, swallowing the prior two weeks&rsquo candles.
This signals strong downside momentum and raises caution for the near term.
