GLOBAL EQUITY MARKETS – March 14, 2020

REVIEW


The benchmark for the Global equity markets performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) after testing its 200-day average for a very short period, resumed its downtrend. Sharp sell-offs can be followed by sharp rebounds. It is important where the next consolidation is going to take place. Price clearly is settling below the 200-day average. The sell-off in 2018 reversed from 61 levels. This week the ETF tested 61 levels and rebounded. 61-64 area is also a support formed by the lower boundary of a possible uptrend channel. Here are the questions I'm looking answers for in the coming weeks: Will the markets find a bottom here? If yes, are we going to see some sort of bottom reversal chart patterns on short-term price charts? A double bottom, a rectangle reversal, a H&S bottom? Is there a possibility of a V-reversal bottom similar to 2018? A V-reversal bottom will be the most difficult to analyze and profit from. In that case I will turn to individual stocks to find orderly consolidations for breakout opportunities.

GLOBAL EQUITY MARKETS – March 7, 2020

REVIEW


The benchmark for the Global equity markets performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) rebounded to test its 200-day moving average at 76.45 levels. The 200-day average acted as resistance. It is important where the next consolidation is going to take place. If price settles below the 200-day average, forming it as a resistance, we can see further downside similar to late 2018. Until I see price stabilizing above the 200-day average, I will monitor this chart for further weakness and volatility.

FLAG AS A MEASURING PATTERN

The flag forms on a mast, a nearly vertical price movement, either up or down. The length of the mast (in points) from the preceding congestion to the point where the Flag begins to form, will be found to indicate in by far the great majority of the cases the extent of the rapid price movement which proceeds from the last reversal point in the Flag. The price projection by using this half mast technique will give us the possible price target but does not call for a reversal of trend when the price objective is met.

GLOBAL EQUITY MARKETS – February 29, 2020

REVIEW


The benchmark for the Global equity markets performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) failed at the minor high at 81.4 levels. The reversal started with a gap opening and took the ETF way below major support levels. The week closed off its lows but the weekly candlestick has done significant damage to short and long-term price charts. We might see a sharp rebound. 74.8 which is the horizontal boundary can act as resistance on the way up. Until I see price stabilizing above the 200-day average, I will monitor this chart for further weakness and volatility. Is a V-bottom reversal in the cards? A good example was in the beginning of 2019.

GLOBAL EQUITY MARKETS – February 22, 2020

REVIEW


The benchmark for the Global equity markets performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) found resistance at the minor high at 81.4 levels. The high at 81.4 is not yet broken on the upside and we can still see further sideways consolidation between 77.5 and 81.4.  The 200-day moving average is still far from the price at 76.45 levels. Without much interpretation, we can conclude that the chart of of ACWI ETF is showing a clear uptrend. During pullbacks 76.45-77.5 area will act as support.

GLOBAL EQUITY MARKETS – February 15, 2020

REVIEW


The benchmark for the Global equity markets performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) tested the minor high at 81.4 levels. On the price chart last one month's price action seems like a pullback to the high seen in 2018 (77.5) and a continuation higher. ACWI ETF is still in a steady uptrend. The high at 81.4 is not yet broken on the upside and we can still see further sideways consolidation between 77.5 and 81.4.  The 200-day moving average is still far from the price at 76 levels. Without much interpretation, we can conclude that the chart of of ACWI ETF is showing a clear uptrend.
