H&S CONTINUATION

September 12, 2017/0 Comments/in Blog Post /by Aksel Kibar

Head and shoulder chart pattern can form as a continuation on price charts. In uptrends, a H&S continuation will be similar to a H&S bottom and in downtrends it will resemble an inverse H&S. The implications and interpretations continuation H&S are usually the same with reversals. Price objectives can be derived in the same way as it is calculated on a reversal chart pattern.

Head and shoulder continuation is one of my favorite chart pattern. A head and shoulder continuation that forms in an uptrend, will usually breakout to all-time highs once the chart pattern is completed. Breakout to all-time highs from bullish continuation chart patterns are usually reliable and powerful.

A head and shoulder continuation that forms in a downtrend will usually take out the minor lows and move in the path of least resistance. Price that is already in a downtrend is likely to accelerate on the downside (sometimes in a sharp fall) as it breaks down a well-defined horizontal support.

Below are some examples of H&S continuation chart patterns in up and down trends.

CHINA SSE COMPOSITE INDEX

September 5, 2017/0 Comments/in Blog Post /by Aksel Kibar

China SSE Composite has been forming an 8 month-long rectangle chart pattern. Over the past two weeks the index breached the upper boundary of its multi month-long rectangle chart pattern standing at 3,300 levels. The daily close above 3,350 levels confirmed the breakout with a possible chart pattern price target of 3,560 levels. Breakouts from chart patterns with horizontal boundaries are reliable. After a confirmed breakout, resistance becomes support. Strong support for the index now stands at 3,300 levels. Positive momentum in Chinese equities can boost Emerging Markets performance.

SUPPORT & RESISTANCE

August 30, 2017/0 Comments/in Blog Post /by Aksel Kibar

A stock (ETF, Index etc.) price is either in a trending phase or in a consolidation period. During strong trend periods prices move uninterrupted from one price level to another. During consolidations prices move in both directions without producing any meaningful or sustained price change and will form well-defined support and resistance areas on the charts. A support range represents a concentration of demand, and a resistance range represents a concentration of supply.

A resistance level is an approximate level or fairly well-defined price range, where previously advancing stock meets resistance in the form of strong selling. A support level is an approximate level or price range where a preceding decline meets support, in the form of strong buying. A possible explanation for appearance of such well-defined price boundaries in the form of support and resistance can be the fact that the public tend to remember previous levels the stock has traded.

ISHARES MSCI ALL COUNTRY WORLD INDEX ETF (ACWI.O)

Last week's price action did some technical damage on the charts. MSCI ALL COUNTRY WORLD INDEX ETF, a benchmark for global equity market performance gave back three weeks of gains in one weekly bar. The discussion on the financial networks and social media was about buying the dip. The iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF is listed on the Nasdaq Stock Exchange. 66.3 is the lower boundary of the 7 month-long trend channel for the ACWI ETF. The index rebounded from the strong support once again. Failure to hold this support level can push the price to the next support at 65.5, which is the 17 month-long upward trendline. There is no clear chart pattern forming on the MSCI ACWI ETF that would suggest a top reversal. For those who are looking for a sell signal on the ACWI, the breakdown of the trend channels should give some guidance. In case of further weakness in the global equity markets ( i.e. a breakdown on the ACWI), the weekly Global Equity Markets report featured some of the well-defined bearish chart setups in the global equities and ETFs.
