We had some very promising price signals last week and the promising market breadth then resulted in a Thursday session breakout for most the key sectors. The Nik225 joined the move and the bull market started to move forward once again. In spite of some key technical signals that participants had started to allocated long...

The Swiss team have reported and they have provided a near term toppish recommendation on the lead sp500 index. The rational is a combo of: 1) over bought momentum. Correct for the lead indexes like dow transports, health and semis although many other indexes remain with low rsi’s and relatively unloved. It is very poor...

First up I wish i could be more certain of near term direction here. Issues such as market breadth are very inconclusive. Lets run through it. The bulls can point to the sp500 and % stocks above their 200 dmas as maintaining a solid bullish continuation of this 6th year of this bull market. Certainly...

2014 has thus far been pretty disappointing if you played for a bullish continuation from 2013. Most sectors and intra indexes have struggled. Following on from the last 2 weeks more positive price action the Dow Jones is back to her 2014 opening price. The Nasdaq, as of yesterday, scrapped just above her 2014 open...

Its a wise trader/investor that knows how best to allocate his time at different stages of a market. Effective time allocation is a great part of mastering trading practice. We have a low volatility lull here as directional and indeed cross asset spreads stretch and fail to comply to historical means. Whats more these spreads...

Here below please find the latest Swiss team’s technical analysis. They pick up on many of the same inter market comments as we have on the forum pages. China remains a key concern and has not bounced in the way they had hoped for. The Aud is highly correlated to the Shanghai. There remains continued...

Sunday evening so time to refresh on where we are for the week ahead across the major asset markets. As a general comment we keep getting these sell off Friday’s that makes for bad timing between the release of the Citi report and the AG report. Take away Friday’s bar from the AG charts and...

The Swiss team’s latest report was delayed by the long holiday weekend but it just been released. No wash out but a low is in place, according to the team’s analysis. They acknowledge near term the spx is over bought but fully expect a move higher to 2000 soon. They maintain their wave five expectation...

Practice comment wise, sometimes this sort of work provides wonderful insightful macro direction and sometimes it doesn’t.On this occasion, so far, I’m struggling to draw clear...
