Asset markets remain pretty much where they were with this low volatility creep up, fixed income aside.

Tactically we...

by on
We are still waiting here for clear signals from these markets. US markets have drifted higher but without momentum once again. Nasdaq, Soxx, Transports, Finance sectors all appear fading once again at these levels.  Breadth is not strong here but a low momentum continuation remains the risk. The expected US$ bounce and oversold levels on...

Another week and we have seen renewed strength in the US mega caps and oversold sectors/indexes without any particular new breakouts.

Its back to the office time guys so a longer update. I hope you enjoyed a relaxing summer break as here we march into September. August is behind us and we enter the most bearishly biased month for equities in the year. Sept 15 and 16 were bearish months, of course the Bear Sterns, Lehman...

Weekly Technical Analysis – “Copper Breakout Continues” 25th Aug17

by on
Summer time continues in the price action in major developed market equity markets. We have a fair amount of chop here alongside low volume as participants hold back from committing in either direction.

Weekly Technical Analysis – “SP500 Sept Correction/$ Basing” 10th Aug17

by on
Ok, another August week rolls by and, as so often seems to occur in August, we have a continuation of these choppy non directionally bias asset markets.  We are by nature looking for direction across markets so we can expect a jump in volatility heading into September.

Weekly Technical Analysis – “SP500 Aug Top, Europe Corrective Bounce” 27th July17

by on
The weakness in the US$ has continued to support lead US equity indexes and commodities alike. This week I’m instead going to focus my words on the weaker non usd indexes especially given the likeliness of a bounce here in the US$. So the key price weakness in recent weeks has been European Indexes and...

Temperatures have hit 40 degrees in the last few days in the Balearic islands. The only place to be is on a boat which is exactly what i’m doing. Communications can be a little poor depending on my location so i’ll keep this short and sweet. This bull market is still alive and well and...

Another week rolls past and we have a pick up in price volatility here and much continued weakness and threatened breakdown for commodities. We are starting to see the 2016 to 2017 reflation trade or “escape velocity” narrative that has underpinned much of this wave 5 starting to look very weak indeed. Technically we should...

Weekly Technical Analysis – “More Near Term Weakness” 15th June17

by on
Hi guys, we have some near term weakness here following on the failure to meaningfully breakout across risk indexes. Commodities remain very weak here and need to be watch. We should see at least one more attempt at the reflation trade continuation so entries on commodities, at the least for a bounce should show in...
