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 as February starts sees equities have experienced their first pullback of more than 3% since what feels like forever, with technicals suggesting the pain may not be over yet.

Elsewhere look for Gold to consolidate in its uptrend while Crude Oil pauses in its uptrend as well. The US Dollar Index downtrend has hit new lows but may be ready for a bounce while US Treasuries are accelerating lower. The Shanghai Composite and Emerging Markets are are pulling back in their uptrends.

Volatility looks to continue higher keeping the pressure on the equity index ETF’s SPY, IWM and QQQ. Their charts show pauses in the uptrend in the longer timeframe with pullbacks in the shorter one ready to continue next week. Use this information as you prepare for the coming week and trad’em well.
