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 the first week of July in the books, saw equity markets showing strength from the large cap and tech focused S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100, but continued churn from the small caps.
Elsewhere look for Gold to continue its consolidation in the uptrend while Crude Oil consolidates in a tightening range. The US Dollar Index continues to drift to the downside in consolidation while US Treasuries move lower in their downtrend. The Shanghai Composite looks to continue the short term move lower while Emerging Markets remain in broad consolidation.
The Volatility Index looks to remain very low and stable making the path easier for equity markets to the upside. The charts of the SPY and QQQ look strong, especially on the longer timeframe. On the shorter timeframe both the QQQ and SPY have reset momentum measures and both are also looking strong upon reversing. The IWM continues to be dead money, going on 30 months now. Use this information as you prepare for the coming week and trad’em well.
