Today's interesting charts
Eoin Treacy's view Spain
-
downward dynamic as the Index encounters
resistance below the 200-day moving average.
A sustained move back above 11,000 is now required to question scope for further
downside. The DJ Euro Stoxx Banks
Index has a similar pattern.
UK FTSE-100
-
rallied impressively from 5000 three weeks
ago but posted a downside key day reversal
today. The medium-term upside can continue to be given the benefit of the doubt
provided it holds above that area. The FTSE-350
Banks Index has rallied to test the five-month progression of incrementally
lower rally highs and needs to sustain
a move above 5000 to indicate the demand has returned to dominance.
S&P500
-
found support above the psychological
1000 level four weeks ago and would need
to sustain a move below that level to question scope for further ranging below
the recent recovery high near 1150.
Germany
- The
Index posted a downside weekly key reversal from the region of 6000
in January to cap the advance in the medium-term. It has since pulled back
to test the November low which coincides with the 200-day moving average and
a sustained move below 5400 would be required to suggest a lengthier correction
is unfolding.
Denmark
- a
second downside key day reversal from
the region of 360 this month suggests
a new closing high is now required to reaffirm the uptrend and offset scope
for a retest of at least 340.
Taiwan
-
bounced well from the region of the 200-day
moving average but needs to sustain the advance to retain recovery potential.
A sustained move below 7200 would break the progression of higher lows, push
back into the previous June - September range and likely signal a lengthier
corrective phase is unfolding.
Copper
-
encounters resistance below the below
the January high near 350¢ and needs
to consolidate above 275¢ to sustain the medium-term bullish outlook
Palladium
- downside
key day reversal from the region of the
psychological $450 and needs to sustain
a move above that area to indicate demand is returning to dominance.
US Dollar
per 1 Euro - The
Euro falls back to retest $1.35
while it has experienced some loss of downside momentum it needs a move above
$1.38 to check the decline beyond a brief pause.
In conclusion,
a large number of stock market indices and industrial commodities have unwound
short-term oversold conditions and bounced from their 200-day moving averages
this month. They will need to find support above their most recent reaction
lows if the best case scenario of a reassertion of their medium-term uptrends
is to remain credible.
