Up Next: Bonus Idea
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 as November begins sees the equity markets found support and bounced ahead of the elections Tuesday.
Elsewhere look for Gold to move higher in the short term while Crude Oil continues to pullback in its uptrend. The US Dollar Index is in a short term uptrend while US Treasuries are dropping lower. The Shanghai Composite and Emerging Markets are looking like they may be ready to reverse their downtrends.
Volatility remains elevated but has settled back into the teens keeping some pressure on equities but less than recently allowing some upward movement. The equity index ETF’s SPY (NYSE:SPY), IWM and QQQ reacted with positive weeks, the IWM the strongest. They are all showing signs they may reverse higher as well. That is good news as it was the IWM that led all markets lower. The new week should be interesting. Use this information as you prepare for the coming week and trad’em well.
