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 March options expiration, saw equity markets continue to show weakness in choppy trading. The coming week will likely be headline driven again with the Ukraine – Russia conflict and the FOMC meeting adding volatility.
Elsewhere look for Gold to continue its uptrend while Crude Oil pulls back in its uptrend. The US Dollar Index continues to move to the upside while US Treasuries pullback in their downtrend. The Shanghai Composite looks to have established a downtrend while Emerging Markets continue their move lower.
The Volatility Index looks to remain elevated making the path difficult for equity markets. Their charts look weak, especially the SPY and the QQQ on the longer timeframe. On the shorter timeframe both the QQQ and SPY are choppier. The IWM has held in consolidation on both timeframes, relative strength. Use this information as you prepare for the coming week and trad’em well.
