The Bulls charged ahead during the past trading week, erasing almost all the damage caused by the tragic events in Japan. The NYSE Composite Index is still trading slightly below its 2011 high but the NYSE cumulative advance decline line has already broken its highest level of the year, definitely suggesting that there will be another move to break this years highest levels. The US Market is driven by a strong Energy Sector, where the Energy ETF XLE managed to break out. In the NASDAQ market we witness a strong out performance by the Biotech Sector. Health care and Financials are still lagging the overall market, but the big picture, on a technical basis, remains extraordinary strong and healthy. Things can change quickly and the market is once again overbought, but for now, the message is loud and clear: Buy the dips.
The Chart below plots the daily price structure of the S&P500 ETF SPY. I expect the market to make one last move to the downside, before we break out, and move towards 1400. I expect a good entry level for this trade at around 1300. If I am right, we have made 2/3 of this consolidation.
The only one, that could derail this current rally is the USD. The DXY is still sitting on major support, and the break out in the EURUSD has not taken place at 1.4230 yet. If we break 1.4040 in the EURUSD pair to the downside, we should have a look at the DXY. A break above 77.5 would not bode well for equity bulls.
NYSE A/D Line: The strong performance in Small Caps helps the A/D-line to a new high. Small Caps outperform, another short term bullish sign for the market
NYSE: Will follow AD-line, even if we get another pull back
VIX: Volatility sitting on the downtrend, maybe we get a small bounce from this level. BTK: Biotech outperforms the overall market
XLE: The Qaddafi Break-out
XLF: under performing sector, avoid
Equity markets on 60': All showing minor to strong negative divergences, don't chase the rally
DAX: Outperforming but ahead of strong resistance
SMI: Heavy weights Health care and Financials are lagging, under performer
SDF: Potash in Europe, outperforming, but also here we have strong resistance
Syngenta: A break of 320, sparked by a rally in softs, would bode well for the bulls
Corn: Heading towards last resistance at 740, break-out @ 750
Wheat: After an impressing Head and Shoulder top the market rallies back, the re break of 760 is bullish
Crude Oil: Daily Time frame shows weak momentum, resistance @USD110, cycle could turn negative in April
