Top Trade Ideas for the Week of October 22, 2012: Bonus Idea

Here is your Bonus Idea with links to the full Top Ten:

Flowserve, Ticker: $FLS

Flowserve, $FLS, is testing a double top at 135.40 after a brief pullback to the 50 day Simple Moving Average (SMA). It has no resistance higher but a price objective from the 3-ox reversal Point and Figure chart to 153, and support below at 131, 128 and 125.65 before 120 and 117.25. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is bullish but pulling back and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence indicator (MACD) is positive and growing. Both support further upside activity. Use a move over 135.50 as a trigger long and under 127.50 as a trigger short. The stock reports earnings on October 29th. Prices on options for short trade ideas will be significantly different at a stock price of 127.50.

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 Saturday which, sees heading into the new options cycle Gold and Crude Oil ready to pullback further with the possibility that Crude Oil continues to consolidate. The US Dollar Index is poised to continue to move sideways while US Treasuries are biased lower. The Shanghai Composite is biased to the upside with the long term downtrend while Emerging Markets look to continue to consolidate. Volatility looks to remain low but is hinting at a move higher now, leaving the intermarket bias for the equity index ETF’s SPY, IWM and QQQ, mixed. Longer term biases lower for the US Dollar and Treasuries support the upside while potentially rising Volatilty supports more pullback. The Indexes themselves reflect this with the SPY the strongest and still consolidating while the IWM is biased lower and the QQQ the pulling back. All three are biased to the downside in the short run but the IWM and QQQ are at longer term rising trendline support. Use this information as you prepare for the coming week and trade’m well.
