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 December Quad Witching in the books, equity markets showed some strength at the end of the week to stop the drop.
Elsewhere, look for Gold to continue the uptrend and challenge the all-time high while Crude Oil holds lower on the verge of shifting to a downtrend. The US Dollar Index continues the short term drift to the upside in consolidation while US Treasuries continue in consolidation and looking better lower. The Shanghai Composite looks to continue the pause in the uptrend after some digestion from the 10 year highs while Emerging Markets hold up in their uptrend.
The Volatility Index looks to continue to hold in the normal range making it easier for equities to move higher. The charts of the SPY, the IWM and the QQQ look strong on the longer timeframe, with the IWM leading. On the shorter timeframe the SPY, the QQQ and the IWM look to have weathered the storm and maybe ready to start higher again. Use this information as you prepare for the coming week and trad’em well.
