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 August options expiration, sees equity markets hit a speed bump and have stalled.

Elsewhere look for Gold to continue to consolidate the uptrend while Crude Oil slowly rises in consolidation. The US Dollar Index marks time as it digests the recent drop while US Treasuries pullback in their uptrend. The Shanghai Composite looks to continue to consolidate in its uptrend while Emerging Markets pause over resistance in their own move higher.

The Volatility Index looks to continue the slow creep lower making the path easier for equity markets to the upside. Their charts look strong on the longer timeframe, but with some indecision candles this week suggesting a pause or digestion possible. On the shorter timeframe the IWM, QQQ and SPY look to be in consolidation mode for the time being. Use this information as you prepare for the coming week and trad’em well.
