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 the first 4 months of the year sees equity markets seeming in need of some rest as they start May.
Elsewhere look for Gold to consolidate in the uptrend while Crude Oil continues to move higher. The US Dollar Index continues in consolidation while US Treasuries consolidate in their uptrend. The Shanghai Composite looks to continue consolidation in a shortened week while Emerging Markets are poised for a possible reversal lower.
The Volatility Index looks to remain elevated and not so ready to move lower putting a speed bump in the path for equity markets. Their charts show consolidation in the shorter timeframe, holding in bullish ranges, but all have printed possible reversal candles on the longer timeframe. The QQQ continues to look the strongest with the SPY next and the IWM bringing up the rear. Use this information as you prepare for the coming week and trad’em well.
