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 books closed on 2020, saw equity markets ended on a positive foot, looking strong with more upside to come, after a wild first quarter drop. The IWM and SPY both ended the year up over 15% after being down over 30% in March. The QQQ put them to shame climbing over 47% on the year.
Elsewhere look for Gold to continue its short term move higher, pressuring the bull flag, while Crude Oil drifts to the upside. The US Dollar Index continues to move lower while US Treasuries continue their downtrend. The Shanghai Composite looks to continue the breakout to the upside while Emerging Markets slowly move higher.
The Volatility Index looks to remain low 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 have regained their momentum while the IWM has reset momentum a bit lower, perhaps for another run to the upside. Use this information as you prepare for the coming week and trad’em well.
