Similarities

Not much changed from The weekend report to now, so lets quickly review the mkts and then review a couple of trade set ups...

For the NASDAQ-   I have been showing a bearish wedge, and I pointed out how they occasionally can consolidate & turn bullish like in this  2011-2013 wedge. I shared this chart

NASDAQ 5-8 3rd  

Lets look at the SPX currently

TRIANGLES

I am seeing a lot of Triangles forming in the markets, some bullish by nature and others bearish.  Lets take a look and review the past week and look forward to a few ideas too...

I posted this WKLY NASDAQ in a mid-week report on MAY 6.  Could it recover?

CHANGE

6:30 a.m. Eastern time :  I collected most of the Charts for todays report last night.  I thought to myself that like I wrote in the weekend report,   it looks like we are seeing some Big Picture changes lately.  I awoke this morning to Futures down quite a bit and that makes the charts you are bout to see all the more interesting. We all know that when you wake up to Futures down, the day can reverse and still close green and visa versa, but take a look at where we are , and you'll see that things look quite interesting.

I like to start with the previous days chart, so here is the Nasdaq from Tuesday. Breaking down?

NASDAQ 5-5

SO what happened Wednesday? Oh yes, it wasnt a FED WEDNESDAY, but The Fed did say something in an interview  that shook the markets a bit more...

Healthy Pullbacks

As mentioned recently in a prior report,  The Markets seem to breath in and out with human interaction.  They can Ebb & Flow like the ocean, and  some pullbacks can be very healthy , giving the upward move more energy to break above resistance.  The picture above shows the idea of a pullback that has done its job. SO in this report I wanted to discuss certain pullbacks that can be buying opportunities, and of course there are some that aren't. Lets do  a market review...

NASDAQ- This was my chart for yesterday, I mentioned that a pullback usually occurred with the little move that we saw on Monday. It too could be a healthy little pullback.

NASDAQ 5-4

So we did dip yesterday,  lets take a look...

WKEND REPORT- GOLD & OTHER “STUFF”

In this weekend report I wanted to briefly review various sectors as we usually do.  We have been quite focused on Energy and recently I was calling for the double bottom lows in NATGAS.  We have seen these ideas play out perfectly.  Now, in this weekend report, we're mostly going to focus on GOLD/SILVER/MINERS.  I have about 40 charts and this will be my longest wkend report to date, enjoy!

SPX & NASDAQ - I have pointed this out for many weeks now. Very trade-able lately, buying dips, selling rips.

SPX WKLY 4-24 one

Here is the NASDAQ...

Taking The Lead

 FED WEDNESDAY came and went and it rocked many of the areas that we anticipated.  We have been invested in Energy stocks for some time, so we actually benefited from the upward push that many of the energy stocks received.  Along with Energy and a few other areas of interest, we have also recently discussed the precious metals area again, and I sent out an intraday alert on Tuesday regarding the set ups that I had been watching.  So why the puppy with the leash?  Notice this...

GOLD

GOLD 4-29

You can see that Gold had started breaking upward this week, and Wed it reversed into the close.  Now notice Silver...

Ready For The Fed?

If you look at the volatility in the stock market  lately , it would seem reasonable to believe that this Fed Mtg Day could be a shaky one. Yesterday TWTR  ironically got rocked from an untimely tweet on their earnings.  As mentioned in a prior report, Housing stocks MTH, PHM, TOL, LEN , DHI all got rocked, while MSFT, NFLX, GOOGL shot up higher with their results.   After the bell,  SSYS, WYNN, AKAM and a few others joined TWTR in the selling off , so we're getting a mixed picture with the weeks earnings reports.  And then there was this chart...

IBB - Yes, it has recovered it's 50sma before, but it has work to do. Thats some pretty high volume selling lately.

IBB

With the IBB 2 day drop, something interesting happened with the SPX...
