GLOBAL EQUITY MARKETS – May 26, 2018

Announcement:

Dear Tech Charts members,

It has been a successful year since the launch of Tech Charts membership service. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your support. I hope to build a long lasting relationship with all of our members and hope to serve you in the coming years. I’m excited and motivated to improve our membership service every year. Going forward, Tech Charts Global Equity Markets report will include Frontier Markets into its research universe.  Tech Charts follows the MSCI classification for market research. Below is a table that shows MSCI classification for each market. Global Equity Markets report is highlighting developing opportunities in Developed and Emerging Markets. We are now adding Frontier Markets equities to our report. Please note that coverage of a specific market doesn’t mean you will find every equity available in that specific market. Global Equity Markets report features selective number of opportunities only if the price chart has a well-defined and mature classical chart pattern.

We have received several requests to include educational videos that explains basic concepts in Technical Analysis. For our members who are new to classical charting principles and technical analysis, we are planning to add new video tutorials. New educational videos on classical chart patterns are being produced as well.

As usual, please feel free to ask questions, send charts for discussions and feedback on any matter regarding your membership service.

I look forward to another great year.

REVIEW


Global equity markets remain in an uptrend. The iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF is trading above its long-term average. Over the past 2 years the ETF has been moving in an upward trend channel. However, past 4 month’s price action is now becoming more clear as a sideways consolidation. The ACWI ETF is possibly forming a 4 month-long symmetrical triangle with the upper boundary acting as resistance at 73.9 and support at 71.2 levels. Until the recent consolidation is resolved in one direction we will expect more choppy price action. A breakdown will confirm the 4 month-long symmetrical triangle as a bearish continuation chart pattern. Such price action will also take out the lower boundary of the trend channel and the 200-day (40 week) moving average and suggest lower prices. A decisive break above 73.90 levels will keep the long-term uptrend intact and push the ACWI ETF towards 77-78 area (previous high).

GLOBAL EQUITY MARKETS – May 19, 2018

REVIEW


We are seeing a decoupling in terms of performance in the Global Equity Markets. Developed markets continue to remain strong whereas Emerging markets start to weaken. The charts below show both the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF and the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index ETF in a steady uptrend. However, over the past few weeks, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF managed to rebound from its long-term average but the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index ETF struggled around the strong support area. Failure to recover from strong support area can result in a breakdown and larger scale correction for the Emerging Markets. The iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index ETF is testing the 200-day (40 week) moving average.

LEARNING TO IDENTIFY CHART PATTERNS

As part of our member webinars, on the 8th of March 2018 we recorded a live webinar discussing ascending triangle patterns. During the Q&A session one of the Tech Charts members asked this question, “If I’m new to classical charting, what should I do to learn how to identify each pattern?”

We have prepared an excerpt from the webinar. I hope that it will add value in your learning experience. Educational Videos section is expanding rapidly. In the following months we plan not only more educational tutorials on Classical Charting Principles but also videos on the fine points of Technical Analysis.

GLOBAL EQUITY MARKETS – May 12, 2018

REVIEW


Global equities experienced renewed strength during the week. Weekly candles on both the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF and the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index ETF opened at the lowest and closed at the highest point suggesting buyers domination throughout the week. ACWI ETF is breaking out of its 4 month-long tight consolidation. The benchmark for Global equity markets performance has been in a steady uptrend. Recent tight consolidation took place above the long-term average and the lower boundary of its 2 year-long trend channel. The iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index weighed down by U.S. Dollar strength, still managed to hold on to its 200 day (40 week) average and rebounded from the lower boundary of its 2 year-long uptrend. Both ETFs are in a steady uptrend.
