REVIEW

The benchmark for the Global equity markets performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) rebounded from the minor low around 90.1 levels. There is a possibility of a H&S top forming at current levels that can be utilized in both directions. The possible right shoulder hasn't formed yet so it is early to call this a H&S top. Right now we can conclude that the uptrend is intact. If price stalls at current levels and rolls over in the following weeks, then we will consider the possibility of a H&S top. It is important to note that price is testing the upper boundary of a long-term trend channel, a possible resistance area.

Live questions from Members Question 1: When you post ideas on Twitter, where can I find them on the member's site? 56:21 Question 2: Do you use stops and how do you set them? Also, would you look at trailing stops to exit a position? 57:12 (LINK: ATR Trailing Stop-Loss - H&S Top) Question 3: Do you invest in any volatility futures, Aksel? If so, what is your strategy in terms of technical analysis since even the futures themselves could be extremely volatile? Can this be covered in the Tech Charts report? 57:44  Question 4: Is the Rectangle pattern similar to a Flag pattern? 58:35 Question 5: Which broker do you use that provides you to trade HK, Canada, South Africa, and Turkey stocks? 59:04 Question 6: You showed in a weekly chart that for H&S top failed breakdown, exceeding the negation level is enough, or don't you prefer to see the weeks closing in order to be sure it's a failed breakdown as you prefer for daily charts? 59:59 Question 7: How do you decide on the price level of horizontal lines? To be more specific, in the daily scale of a chart, let's say if 5 bars are reaching the bottom horizontal line of a rectangle pattern, and all their close and low price levels are different even though the prices so close to each other, how do you decide on the bottom horizontal lines price level? Do you consider the lowest closing price level or average or median of lows, etc? 01:01:06 Question 8: Do you use the gap strategy in your trades? If so, do you have success percentage of those (for the price coming back to the level of the gap)? 01:01:53 Question 9: Could you give your opinion on Silver futures or SLV at this time? 01:02:38 Question 10: Does using a trailing stoploss create problems during pullback? How do you deal with that? 01:03:04 Question 11: The double bottoms that keep forming in various charts do they qualify as eve & eve or eve & adam? Would they qualify for bottom reversals or continuations? Can you explain them in comparison to cup & handle? 01:04:05 Question 12: Do you use cycle analyses in selecting stocks? 01:05:22 Recorded live 03.11.2021     Read More

REVIEW

The benchmark for the Global equity markets performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) failed to hold above the existing uptrend line. The last time the ETF tried to reverse the ongoing trend was in January. The recent pullback came close to January minor low at 90.1. For the time being we can say that the ETF found support at the minor low and rebounded. There is a possibility of a H&S top forming at current levels that can be utilized in both directions. The possible right shoulder hasn't formed yet so it is early to call this a H&S top. Right now we can conclude that the uptrend is intact. If price stalls at current levels and rolls over in the following week, then we will consider the possibility of a H&S top.

The last time the ETF tried to reverse the ongoing trend was in January. The recent pullback came close to January minor low at 90.1. We are possibly in a reversion to the mean stage where the ETF can pullback towards the 200-day average similar to Sep-Oct period. For the time being we can say that the ETF found support at the minor low for a possible rebound. It could be still early to bring this possibility to your attention but I will monitor the ACWI ETF for a possible H&S top. The ETF might rebound to form the right shoulder of a possible H&S top.

REVIEW

The benchmark for the Global equity markets performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) failed to hold above the existing uptrend line. The last time the ETF tried to reverse the ongoing trend was in January. That pullback rebounded from the trend line support and resulted in a another attempt to reach new all-time highs. Friday's close was weak and it was below the arguable (because I think trend lines, diagonal boundaries are more prone to failure) trend line support. The ETF is also at the upper boundary of a long-term trend channel. We are possibly entering into a reversion to the mean stage where the ETF can pullback towards the 200-day average similar to Sep-Oct period.

REVIEW

The benchmark for the Global equity markets performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) resumed its uptrend inside the past 2 months trend channel. It is important to note that price is at the upper boundary of the long-term trend channel, a possible resistance area. Breakout above the upper boundary can resume the uptrend with increased momentum. There is no clear reversal chart pattern on the daily scale price chart. Uptrend is intact. I will monitor the daily scale price chart for a possible reversal chart pattern.
