Many a wedge pattern has been spotted in my personal weekly watch list. The three main price patterns I’ve been seeing over the past couple of weeks are ascending triangles, descending triangles, and your infamous wedges. In many of the 3x inverse ETFs, the descending triangle broke apart and didn’t guide me into any continued strength. I witnessed this during my FAZ, SKF, TZA, and SRS trades, where as the trade setup looked great, but the descending triangle pattern more often than not fell through on lack of volume and momentum. Thankfully, I got out of these trades prior to them getting too atrocious.
- UXG has two scenarios: A possible re-entry into the range between S1 ($2.00) and its descending triangle resistance trend line, or a continuation of a gold industry beat down that drags UXG to S2 ($1.66).
- ACI – Currently stuck in between the wedge resistance trend line and S1 ($14.21) which held nicely today. Curious to see whether ACI can break out of the wedge.
- ABX – Waiting for S2 ($27.61) retest before putting in a limit buy. I would love to catch the next gold train.
- Steel Tickers (STLD, X, SLX) – Waiting for a strong RSI-%K crossover on a 60d60m chart to initiate a trade for me. Otherwise, I’m not buying these tickers into a potential market weakness.
- B.O. Tickers (TNA, UYG, ERX) – All of these tickers have resistance levels that are very close to being broken on the slightest momentum push by the market. TNA has a resistance of $22.11 in a very strong up-trending price pattern, UYG has a resistance of $3.05 that will move strongly if the financial sector leads the market for another day or so, and ERX has a resistance of $28.68 with a lot of MA levels to bounce off of if Crude brings the heat this week.
