Daily Spot… – If, Then… Market Timing

Daily Spot…

A daily summary of high-profile members of several complexes… View a more detailed discussion of each chart at the end of today’s Market Wrap.

Eurodollar Mar Contract (EC, ETF: (FXE, UUP))
Friday’s dip has stopped optimistically short of filling the gap back to Wednesday’s 1.1095 close, but Monday’s gap down came within 1 pip before reversing up into positive territory above 1.1200, potentially on the way to fulfilling the outstanding minimum higher close.

Gold Feb Contract (GC, ETF: (GLD))
Friday’s post-close extension higher wasn’t retested Sunday night until nearing Monday’s open, and then it extended sharply through it to nearly fulfill upside potential at 1203.00 compensated for the delay. Now a pullback has room down to 1185.00-1186.00 before signaling the rally’s momentum has lapsed.

Silver Mar Contract (SI, ETF: (SLV))
Having held its pullback limit last week, the upside momentum remained intact for at least testing the bottoming pattern’s 15.45 target. Now pullbacks must hold tests of 15.30 to keep alive the upside momentum.

30-year Treasury Mar Contract (US, ETF: (TLT))
Plunging stocks triggered a flight-to-safety that surged through last week’s 164-07 high to test resistance at 165-28. Now holding 165-08/165-12 avoids signaling the rally’s resumption has failed (albeit pretty successful in the interim).

Crude Oil Mar Contract (CL, ETF: (USO, USL) (UWTI-long, DWTI-short))
Lower lows Sunday and Monday were still range-bound, although  last week’s test of the 29.42 pullback limit was attacked. But just closing under 29.55 would target fresh lows at 27.40..

Natural Gas Mar Contract (NG, ETF: (UNG, UNL))
Gapping up overnight and testing 2.17 was retraced to at least attack 2.10, near enough to “lower prior highs” that extending higher intraday Tuesday could confirm the recovery without leaving “unfinished business below” to inhibit further rallying.
