Up Next: Bonus Idea
After reviewing over 1,000 charts, I have found some good setups for the week. These were selected and should be viewed in the context of the broad Market Macro picture reviewed Friday which with July options expiration behind, sees the equity markets continue to look strong, holding at key levels into the heart of earnings season.
Elsewhere look for Gold to possibly pause in its downtrend while Crude Oil pulls back in the uptrend. The US Dollar Index continues to consolidate in the uptrend while US Treasuries pull back in broad consolidation. The Shanghai Composite is building a possible reversal higher after a long pullback and Emerging Markets are also starting to show signs of a possible reversal higher.
Volatility looks to remain at very low levels keeping the bias higher for the equity index ETFs SPY, IWM and QQQ. Their charts show a mixed big in the short run with the SPY moving higher while the IWM consolidates its move and the QQQ digests moving slightly lower. All three look great on the longer time frame, so maybe the short term was options expiration games. Use this information as you prepare for the coming week and trad’em well.
