Every week Tech Charts Global Equity Markets report features some of the well-defined, mature classical chart patterns under a lengthy watchlist and the chart pattern breakout signals that took place during that week. Global Equity Markets report covers single stocks from developed, emerging and frontier markets, ETF’s and global equity indices. The report starts with a review section that highlights the important chart developments on global equity benchmarks. This blog post features from the breakout section a symmetrical triangle. Breakout signal was confirmed few weeks back and since then the stock has possibly completed a pullback. This chart is a good example to discuss the dynamics of breakouts from diagonal chart patterns. Below you will also find a short educational video on how breakouts can develop after completing symmetrical triangle chart patterns.

REVIEW

The benchmark for the Global equity markets performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) continues to remain strong after completing both rectangle and H&S continuation chart patterns. ACWI ETF is in a steady uptrend. During any pullback, the high of 2018 (77.5) can act as support. It is usually difficult to pick tops and bottoms. The best way to approach strong trending markets is to trail it with trend following indicators such as ATR based trailing stops or different period moving averages. Selection of moving average period will depend on your time frame. Short-term moving averages will trail the price closely, resulting in an early exit signal.

REVIEW

The benchmark for the Global equity markets performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) found resistance at 77.5 levels. Last week's bearish shooting star candlestick pattern proved to be a short-term correction signal. Following a quick sell-off (intra-week) the ETF recovered to test its previous high.

Is the short-term correction over? Read More
