Near term (daily chart). The price action butting up against the upper Bollinger Band on Tuesday following the gap up on Monday. Remember the Hang Seng is good at closing gaps. The MACD is still pointing to a firmer intermediate trend while the Slow Stochastic is crossing at the top for a downturn signal. The interplay between the two has been good with the SS showing the very short term trends and the MACD the intemediate trends.

The high Wall Street correlation is still dominating but it is coming off slightly as you can see from the lower chart.

A nice topping pattern is now completed as per the upper chart and the neckline I’ve drawn in. The target from the topping pattern is around 18,000 as the top pattern itself is quite shallow. We have broken above the neckline slightly but I think the pattern is still good. Interesting how the market is hanging around the 200-day Moving Average.

As with all the world’s stock markets, the rally since the major turn from the big bear market has been significant and consolidation is the watchword not further gains.
