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 five months of 2019 in the books, sees equity markets have given back half of their gains from the peak at the end of April.  

Elsewhere look for Gold to continue in its uptrend while Crude Oil continues lower. The US Dollar Index continues to drift higher while US Treasuries are very strong but overbought. The Shanghai Composite continues to consolidate in its downtrend while Emerging Markets may be reversing back higher.

Volatility looks to drift up putting downward pressure on the equity index ETF’s SPY, IWM and QQQ. Their charts are showing the pain in the short run and that is now moving into the weekly timeframe as well. Use this information as you prepare for the coming week and trad’em well.
