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 March Quadruple Witching in the books and heading into the March FOMC meeting, saw equity markets showing some weakness after the long run higher.
Elsewhere look for Gold to continue its uptrend while Crude Oil shows short term strength. The US Dollar Index continues in consolidation while US Treasuries consolidate in their downtrend. The Shanghai Composite looks to continue the short term move higher while Emerging Markets consolidate.
The Volatility Index looks to remain very low and stable making the path easier for equity markets to the upside. The SPY and QQQ charts look strong on the longer timeframe, perhaps building bull flags. On the shorter timeframe though both are showing some weakness as they reset momentum measures lower in the bullish range. The short term weakness in the IWM is threatening to turn into a failed break out. Use this information as you prepare for the coming week and trad’em well.
