After reviewing over 1,000 charts, I have found some good setups for the week. Ā These were selected and should be viewed in the context of the broad Market Macro picture reviewed Friday which saw the corona virus as the catalyst that is pushing sellers to enter the market. It is early in the process but so far markets are proving very resilient, with only minor pullbacks. Perhaps because of the strong earnings releases.
Next week could prove to be a very important week for the short term future of equity markets. Elsewhere look for Gold to continue higher while Crude Oil pulls back in broad consolidation. The US Dollar Index looks to continue its short term move higher in the downward channel while US Treasuries accelerate to the upside.
The Shanghai Composite will be closed until February but looks better lower while Emerging Markets pullback in an uptrend. The Volatility Index looks to remain low but is starting to rise off of very low levels. This could put a drag on equity markets. Their charts look strong on the longer timeframe, but the overheated run higher is correcting in the shorter one. On the daily charts the QQQ are pausing with the SPY pulling back while the IWM is pulling back in broad consolidation. Use this information as you prepare for the coming week and tradāem well.
