Stocks...
MVV...(Midcap 400) is the index with a potentially bullish pattern. It will be important to see if this holds up today into Thursday A.M. to see if it is indeed the start of another leg up.
?
Bonds...
10 yr. Bonds (M)... 200 DMA support is 125.11. Any prints into 125.07 would be too far the first time down and a low risk buy zone.
TBT...62.70 is the first tgt level.
TLT... 112.60 is 2nd support and the downside closing pivot.
?
FX...
EUR/AUD...needs over 147.50 for upside.
?
Commodities...
Gold...it will take price action over 1250 to run out weak shorts and a close 1260 to turn up short term.
Anything prints in the low 1220's should be a first partial profit cover zone for shorts.
Gold is very oversold. It will either have to try and rally or go sideways to alleviate the condition.
JJG...46.70 is the 200 DMA and a low risk buy level. This instrument is oversold and worth a nibble as the level also matches 1/2 way back for the yearly range.
OIL...has to sustain over 102.10 on the point & figure charts to avoid a deeper correction.
