EIS: Shalom It Is!

As a follow-up to yesterday's post on EIS (first daily & 60-minute charts below), the iShares Israel ETF did go on to follow through to the downside with an impulsive move lower out of the gate so far. This confirms yesterday's trendline break & opens the door to a move down to any or all of the (revised) support/target levels on the updated daily chart below. Still an unofficial trade idea.

Is This Shalom For EIS?

EIS (iShares MSCI Isreal Capped Investable Market Index Fund ETF) has a very clear history of very sharp uptrends followed by very sharp downtrends with very few & brief periods of sideways consolidation, unlike most global ETFs. For whatever reasons, this Isreali stock market proxy is usually either in strong rally mode or impulsive correction mode & those trends are almost always marked by fairly well-defined trendlines. EIS daily June 14th While there is still a bit more work to do in order to firm up a sell signal following today's slight break below the current uptrend line, should [...]

Crude Oil Falling Wedge Pattern

I've added an additional downtrend line to the /CL (crude futures) 60-minute chart to form a second, larger falling wedge pattern. CL recently backtested the smaller, previously highlighted wedge yesterday & has crossed above the larger, yellow downtrend line today, although today's breakout has not been very impulsive yet. Should this breakout start to gain some momentum to the upside, it would likely send CL up to at least the  67.24ish level & USO to around 13.58. Such a move would likely translate into a rally in the energy stocks (XLE, XOP, XES, etc.) as well, assuming the broad [...]

CMCSA (Comcast) Breakout

We have an implusive breakout above the downtrend line in CMCSA (Comcast Corp Class A) today following the divergent low. CMCSA was recently an active trade that hit the sole price target for a quick profit with the stock taking one last plunge lower of roughly 12% from that level, which we were able to side-step with a timely exit & well placed price target. CMCSA daily June 6th While that trade was based primarily off the 60-minute charts, hence the relatively small price target & short holding period, today's breakout above the primary downtrend line on the daily [...]
