General Comments or Valuable Insight
The U.S. Treasuries have been sold on the spread against their European counterparts. We’ll be monitoring these spreads to see if this will translate into Euro weakness.
Many instruments have had big 2 1/2 week rallies. Spu’s have hit our initial tgt of 1950 published a couple of months ago.
We have a higher swing count from the last low in April targeting the mid 1980’s, however it wouldn’t be surprising for the short sellers to give it a go over the next few days.
Both the Nasd 100 & Spu longer term point & figure charts are in need of some back and fill after the recent one way trade with no retracement.
I.E. Nasd 100 has rallied from 3560 without backing off over the past 3 weeks.
It might be a little early for the Grains to start a summer push higher but the level is a low risk area to start a position.
Opening Range Time Frame Trading again today.
Short Term View…
Keep trading to make money. The opportunity will be in individual names.
Individual stocks look to be an easier read based off their own technical s.
