Today's Interesting Charts
David Fuller's view Orange
juice (weekly
& daily) has reaffirmed its overall
upward trend with another new high. A close beneath the mid-June low at $176
would be required to offset current scope for somewhat higher to sideways ranging
in a further test of the 2006-2007 peak.
Gold
(weekly
& daily) encountered resistance
beneath its April high and has fallen sharply during the last two days, forming
a weekly key reversal in the process. This indicates susceptibility to additional
mean reversion towards the medium-term trend represented by the rising 200-day
moving average.
China's
Shanghai Composite Index (weekly
& daily) has checked its short-term
downtrend with the biggest upward dynamic since February, forming a weekly key
reversal in the process. A close beneath 2600 would now be required to offset
current scope for sideways to somewhat higher ranging.
India's
Sensex Index (weekly &
daily) rebounded in a strong upward
dynamic today after encountered support near the February low earlier this week.
While it is still in an overall downward trend, evidenced by a sequence of lower
rally highs since November, a close beneath 17,300 would now be required to
reaffirm a further test of underlying trading.
Indonesia
(weekly & daily),
Malaysia (weekly
& daily) and The
Philippines (weekly & daily)
are very steady and well above the year's reaction lows established between
January and March. These ASEAN Indices were among the recovery leaders in 4Q
2008 and approximately this time last year following 2010's significant correction.
Breaks in the June reaction lows to date are now required to reaffirm resistance
near the upper-side of their 2011 trading ranges. (See also Eoin's comments

"People need to be taught the difference between
opportunity and entitlement. If it is all entitlement, they shoot opportunity."
