REVIEW


The benchmark for the Global equity markets performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) experienced a setback after the ETF recovered close to 62% of the decline that started in February. Price came close to its 200-day moving average which is now at 72.1 levels. The ETF is in a downtrend below the 200-day average. The chart is in the process of moving to low volatility conditions. It is looking for a balance between demand and supply. A short-term chart pattern that can take the form of a flag/pennant or symmetrical triangle can offer the low risk long/short opportunity. There is no clear chart pattern development on the daily scale price chart.

INTERIM UPDATE – April 28, 2020

After rebounding from the lows many indices continued to remain strong. While some individual equities re-tested and even moved to new lows, many formed higher lows and over the past month possible bullish short-term continuation chart patterns. There are several stocks with the same setups. One important thing to mention, those are short-term chart patterns and are more prone to failure than long-term chart pattern developments. Also many stocks that are forming those short-term consolidations are trading below their 200-day averages. So if we see continuations, at best I will treat them as swing trading opportunities and not for position trading. Below are some of those good looking setups.
