Walt Disney, $DIS, made a top in March, almost exactly 1 year after rising off the pandemic low. It pulled back from there, finding support in May. It held there in consolidation for 6 months before a gap down in November. That continued to the 50% retracement of the full move higher and bounced. The initial bounce stalled at the 20 day SMA and fell back. It made a higher low and reversed, ending last week back at the previous high.

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 only 1 week left in 2021, equity markets showed strength with a rebound from an ugly start.

Elsewhere look for Gold to continue its consolidation while Crude Oil drifts towards the top of a consolidation range. The US Dollar Index continues to consolidate in the uptrend while US Treasuries mark time sideways. The Shanghai Composite looks to continue in consolidation as well while Emerging Markets continue lower.

The Volatility Index looks to remain at normal levels making the path easier for equity markets to the upside. Their charts look strong, especially on the shorter timeframe. On the longer timeframe both the QQQ and SPY continue to show strength in consolidation, while the IWM flounders in the middle of the yearlong consolidation range. Use this information as you prepare for the coming week and trad’em well.
