NASDAQ BANK INDEX ready to reverse ? LONG Long

NASDAQ BankNASDAQ

Description

BANK is tracking bank stocks within the NASDAQ. I cannot find if it is market cap weighted or

instead an unweighted composite I wanted to check this out to see if the banking sector might

reverse and perhaps have some trade candidates based on relative strength or even

rising trading volumes.

On the 15 chart, BANK's price is in a descending channel or wedge. It is too early to tell if

it is breaking out although it is sandwiched between the SMA10 and SMA20 as so in limbo at

least of this time frame. The MACD indicator shows downgoing lines that had crossed one

another above the histogram. This appears to be a bearish divergence. The mass index shows no

signs of a rise into the threshold and trigger zone as it did on January 31st.

Overall, I conclude that the price is still in the channel and not yet an early breakout. I will

recheck this at intervals. Once a breakout is confirmed and even retested, I will find

some relatively strong bank stocks from which to pick a long trade at a low pivot for

a safe high return from the upside shown.

BAC is one bank stock of interest. It had an uptrend which has now done a 50% retracement into the Fib retrace zone marked on this linked chart. It is sideways in the zone. I am thinking about long and short entries at the zone boundaries with buy stops and sell stops to try to catch the move which is more probably long than short continuance.

I hope this idea helps anyone who reads it " make bank" Why I say upside is more probable is because that is typical of a retracement. Otherwise, it is a subtle finding on the MACD but the lines have been more above the horizontal zero then below it in the last two trading sessions. The long would be a buystop at 33.6 while the short would be a sellstop at 32.4.
