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 a second week lower and heading into the September options expiration, saw equities trying to catch their breath but looking weak.
Elsewhere the word is consolidation. Look for Gold to continue its consolidation while Crude Oil breaks consolidation lower. The US Dollar Index continues to consolidate after the drop while US Treasuries move sideways. The Shanghai Composite looks to continue an intermediate consolidation while Emerging Markets consolidate under long term resistance.
The Volatility Index looks to resume a drift lower making the path easier for equity markets to the upside. Their charts still look at risk though, especially on the longer timeframe. On the shorter timeframe both the QQQ and SPY are in consolidation after a drop while the IWM is looking the weakest in a pullback. Use this information as you prepare for the coming week and trad’em well.
