DAX, NIKKEI and DJIA

For those who are not a big fan of twitter I’m posting my latest updates on global equity markets. I believe these are important charts and are worth reviewing again. Global equity markets are experiencing a correction. Long-term trends are still intact. Long-term 200-day averages will play a significant role in determining the next direction of […]

MSCI WORLD MARKETS

Global equity markets can experience a pull back. MSCI World Markets index is testing strong long-term resistance levels. A pull back towards the long-term averages would result in a reversal on the MACD too. It is still early to call for a reversal but it is also extremely important to keep an eye on this long-term […]

SERBIA AND SLOVENIA

Frontier markets performed well over the past year. More and more frontier equity markets are gaining strength. Both Serbia and Slovenia equity indices are completing 2 year-long base formations. Slovenia SBITOP Index cleared 700 levels; a horizontal resistance for the cup & handle formation. Index should target 970 levels in the medium-term. Serbia SRX USD index is […]

USD/ZAR

Positive sentiment for the South African rand might be over as the cross rate reaches strong support area formed by the long-term trend line and moving averages. Both 3 year-long trend line and the 200-day moving average are forming support at 10.35 levels. RSI (Relative Strength Index) is also testing 50 levels; which is considered to be the lower […]

BRENT CRUDE OIL

Oil prepares for a massive breakout in the following weeks/months. Magnitude of the price change is likely to make the oil “the hot topic” in the financial media. Why am I saying this? 1) Breakouts from low volatility periods are usually very powerful and are followed by strong directional moves. United States Brent Oil ETF (BNO) and ETFS […]

COTTON

Cotton price prepares for a strong breakout from its 2 year-long base formation. Recent consolidation can be one of the two bullish chart formations. A cup with handle chart pattern or an ascending triangle. If it is the former, Cotton should break above 94 levels in the short-term. Breakout above 94 levels will clear 2 year-long horizontal […]

PERU LIMA IGRA INDEX

Peru’s IGRA index has been one of the weakest from the emerging market equities. After testing 23,850 levels for the third time in the beginning of 2012 IGRA index fell to 14,600 levels. Index formed a clear downtrend below its long-term moving average. Over the past year rebounds have been weak. Index is now testing the horizontal support […]

CHINESE YUAN

Still a highly managed currency Chinese yuan is trading above its 200 day moving average – with only one exception since 2005. China was criticized for currency manipulation during the financial crisis between 2008 and 2009. PBOC (The People’s Bank of China) was asked to strengthen the yuan and China to focus on internal demand rather than an export […]

GOLD

PALLADIUM and COPPER

Both Palladium and Copper have industrial use. Yet one has clearly outperformed the other over the past four years. Charts suggest the latest strength in Palladium and weakness in Copper could continue. 10 year weekly correlation between Palladium and Copper has been positive 0.4869. Last week Palladium broke out of its year-long sideways consolidation pattern. […]
