Stocks...
Nasd 100...has broken out again on the monthly & qtrly charts.
As long as the Nasd 100 holds 3740 it remains a buy.
There is a last remaining resistance zone @ 3790-3817.
Once above expect a test of 3885.
RIO...needs a close over 53.10 to gain upside momentum
GOOGL...by holding and closing over 564 this gains upside momentum.
EWA...Australian iShares have put in a trad able low with an ORH day. A close over 26.56 confirms more upside.
WFM...put in a bottoming formation on the weekly chart. I'm looking for another 5-10% upside.
FLR...Flour is putting in an ORH week. Upside momentum picks up with a close over 78.35.
WYNN...put in an ORL day. By staying under 206 a break into the low 190's is in the cards.
CCE...Coke Cola had an off day. It's starting to get oversold. I doubt it gets close to 43.50 (200 DMA).
JOY...should be on your buy on breaks list. Any pullback near 58 is a low risk opportunity with a tight stop. This has 10% upside potential from here.
?
Bonds...
Bunds ...put in an ORH day by closing over 145.05 (U) 146.26 (M)
30 yr. Bonds...(M) 137.08 is resistance and the closing upside pivot.
10 yr. Bonds...(M)? 125.08-11 is support and the downside pivot.
FX...
EURO...136.47-61 is mvg avg resistance and the upside pivot.
EUR/JPY...needs over 140.20 for another wiggle up. You need to see sustained price action over this level for Euro strength.
?
Commodities...
JJG...is getting very oversold, however I'm just going to eyeball it until I get better trade location in the Soybeans or a clear bottoming pattern presents itself.
General Comments orValuable Insight
The Bunds have the best looking chart pattern of the 10 yr Interest Rate futures.
