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 in the books and ceasefire giving traders more confidence it will hold up, saw equities show continued strength driving to new all-time highs.

Elsewhere, look for Gold to continue recovering from the pullback while Crude Oil transitions to freefall. The US Dollar Index looks to continue to drift lower in consolidation while US Treasuries continue to hold over 15 month support like nothing is happening. The Shanghai Composite looks to continue a short term uptrend while Emerging Markets push to new highs in their uptrend.

The Volatility Index looks to continue to improve, as it drops back to the normal zone removing all the pressure on equities. The charts of the SPY, the QQQ and the IWM are now looking extremely strong on the longer timeframe with 3 long positive weeks moving to new highs. On the shorter timeframe the SPY, the QQQ and the IWM also look very strong but are showing signs of overheated momentum and may need a pause. Use this information as you prepare for the coming week and trad’em well.
