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 first month of the year in the books, saw equity markets had finally stalled and started to retrace after a long strong run in the 4th Quarter and into January.

Elsewhere look for Gold to continue to move higher while Crude Oil tests the lower end of a broad consolidation channel. The US Dollar Index looks better to the downside while US Treasuries head towards the all-time highs. The Shanghai Composite looks to re-open with a bias lower compounded by a week of pent up news while Emerging Markets continue a short term downtrend.

The Volatility Index looks to remain elevated making the path easier for equity markets to the downside. Their charts also look weak on the shorter timeframe with the IWM the ugliest and the SPY now at possible support. Only the QQQ remains near the 20 day SMA. The longer timeframe looks much less concerning for the QQQ and SPY. The IWM is weaker but at support on this timeframe. Use this information as you prepare for the coming week and trad’em well.
