DLR TRADE WEIGHTED

Near term (daily chart). Still good support around the 200-day Moving Average on Tuesday but basically more of the same with a good Slow Stochastic signal for the latest little dip with the MACD still good to the upside for the intermediate trend signal. The Slow Stochastic is good an indicating the very short term trends and the MACD the intermediate trends. Watch the fast line on the MACD as it is starting to come down for a possible cross. This would tip the daily chart more bearish.

The 200-day Moving Average is still acting as a pull for this market and the price action is hanging around that level.

As I’ve said before the Fan line break did seem to set us up for a move down and we have formed quite a nice head and shoulders top which is similar to some other markets around Asia. We have also broken the neckline of that topping pattern with a target of 2,650.

There is a bearish feeling to this chart and the weekly is worth close study. See the weekly analysis.

In terms of the S&P 500. As per the last chart you can see the correlation has turned high again and the US markets are having a big influence again. Watch Wall Street.  

See the glossary link above for an explanation of the studies used above.
