/0 Comments/in /by

Dear Tech Charts Members,

We are continuing our Member webinar series with some of the frequently featured reversal chart patterns; the head and shoulder top, descending triangle and rectangle. Global equities entered into bear market territory. Over the past couple of months the Global Equity Markets report has featured great chart setups that were identified as top reversals. Identifying reversal chart patterns can help us in protecting downside in our portfolios. Liquid instruments also offer great shorting opportunities.

Scheduled for: Thursday, January 10th at 8:30am MST (register below)

The upcoming webinar is dedicated to a thorough discussion on head and shoulder top, descending triangle and rectangle as top reversal chart patterns.
  • We will review some of those chart pattern breakdowns that were featured in the Global Equity Markets report.
  • We will review some of the qualities we look for when identifying reversal chart patterns
  • We will look at some of the developing top formations.
  • We will continue to highlight Tech Charts members favorite chart pattern setups in different equity markets. As always please feel free to send charts for discussion.
  • We will have a member Q&A at the end of the webinar.

REVIEW

Global equity markets performance as measured by the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) rebounded from oversold levels. In the time frame I analyze price charts (daily, weekly and monthly) from a classical charting perspective there is no clear sign of reversal. V bottoms can take place and they are usually difficult to anticipate and analyze. My best guess is that we see some sort of consolidation after December's sharp sell-off. The consolidation can result in a re-test of previous lows. We will be able to tell as we get new evidence (data points) from the markets. For now I can say that the ACWI ETF (ACWI.O) stabilized around the support at 63 levels. Strong resistance stands at 66.3 levels. The ETF is trading below its long-term average and is in a steady downtrend.

REVIEW

Global equity markets performance as measured by the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) broke down the 3 month-long sideways consolidation by breaching the support at 66.3 levels. Breakdown was followed by a sharp drop towards the next support level at 63 levels. Nothing good happens below the 200-day moving average. Back in October the long-term trend following indicator alerted us to the change in trend. Previous support becomes the new resistance. 66.3 levels will act as short-term resistance if markets experience any rebound. In the short-term, there is no chart pattern that would signal a trend reversal.

Announcement:

Dear Tech Charts members,

We have included a new feature to Tech Charts website. At the bottom of each report we have incorporated comment platform DISQUS. Previous comment platform was not allowing members to post charts and have discussions. With this improvement, I hope to have detailed discussions with our members and possibly post breakout alerts related to each week's report. I also hope that Tech Charts members will be able to interact with each other through the DISQUS platform (at the bottom of each weekly report) to share their knowledge on different instruments available to take advantage of breakout opportunities. I hope we will all benefit from this new feature.

REVIEW

Global equity markets performance as measured by the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O), formed a new trading range between 66.3 and 71.3 levels. Over the past 3 months the ETF has been consolidating in a wide range below its long-term (200-day) average. Breakdown of the wide 3 month-long consolidation can send the ETF towards the next support level at 63. If the ETF manages to hold above the support at 66.3 levels, we can expect further consolidation between 66.3 and 71.2.

REVIEW

Global equity markets performance as measured by the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) reversed from its long-term moving average resistance at 71.3 levels. In the beginning of October the index broke down its 7 month-long consolidation and the 200-day moving average. Since then the ETF has challenged the strong resistance area between 71 and 71.5 levels but failed to breach higher. This week's sell-off pulled the ACWI ETF towards the minor support at 66.5 levels. Failure to hold above the short-term support can send the index to the next level at 63 levels. The iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF is trading below its long-term average and is in a downtrend.

REVIEW

The iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) continues to consolidate below its long-term average at 71.4 levels. 71-71.4 area will act as strong resistance for the Global equity benchmark. Over the past few months the ETF has been consolidating in a wide range between 66.5 and 71 levels. I use the 200-day moving average as a trend filter. Price action below the long-term average warns us of possible weakness (in the form of further choppy price action or continued downward momentum).

REVIEW

The longer the price remains below the long-term averages the more established that downtrend will become. The benchmark for the Global Equity Markets performance, iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) broke down the lower boundary of its multi-month long consolidation and its long-term average around same time. Sharp sell-off was followed by a pullback to the chart pattern boundary. This week's price action resumed the downtrend. The minor low around October lows (66) will act as short-term support. Breakdown below the October lows can send the ACWI ETF towards the next support level at 63 levels. Strong resistance area remains between 71 and 71.5 levels. Until we see a recovery above the resistance area (71-71.5), we will expect the weakness to resume in the Global Equity Markets.

REVIEW

The benchmark for the Global Equity Markets performance, iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) is trading below its long-term (200-day) average. Last one month's price action formed choppy and sideways consolidation. Earlier the ACWI ETF broke down its multi-month-long consolidation and ended a low volatility period. Volatility is cyclical. Low volatility begets high volatility and vice versa. Currently the ETF is consolidating its earlier sharp price decline from 75 to 66 levels. Strong resistance area is between 71 and 71.6 levels. Long-term support stands at 63 levels.
