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 heading into the second week of February, saw equity markets showed resilience as they rebounded from end of January sell off.

Elsewhere look for Gold to continue its pullback while Crude Oil resumes its uptrend. The US Dollar Index may be rounding out a bottom towards a reversal while US Treasuries continue in their downtrend. The Shanghai Composite looks to continue the pullback in the uptrend while Emerging Markets ready to attack new all-time highs.

The Volatility Index looks to have settled back to low levels making the path easier for equity markets to the upside. Their charts look strong, especially on the longer timeframe. On the shorter timeframe both the QQQ and SPY did print indecision candles which may influence the short term. The IWM looks ready to take the lead with a new leg higher. Use this information as you prepare for the coming week and trad’em well.
