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 April Options Expiration behind, sees the equity markets held up well and still looked strong.

Elsewhere look for Gold to head lower while Crude Oil pauses in its move higher. The US Dollar Index looks to continue to move sideways while US Treasuries may be ending their pullback. The Shanghai Composite and Emerging Markets look to continue to move to the upside.

Volatility looks to remain very low keeping the bias higher for the equity index ETF’s SPY, IWM and QQQ. Their charts are a bit mixed though in the shorter timeframe with the QQQ strong and heading higher, the SPY consolidating and the IWM retrenching. All three look stronger in the weekly timeframe. Use this information as you prepare for the coming week and trad’em well.
