XLE BearLong Term Bearish on XLE
The deflation narrative is now the contrarian narrative . However, XLE the SPDR Energy giant is signaling a hefty drop on the 3M stochastic RSI . This signal has been produced 3 times in the last two decades leading to multiple 50%+ drops in value of the fund.
The 5-wave impulsive move looking for a similar 3 wave a-b-c corrective wave down to it's most recent corrective wave.
The yield curve un-inversion (zoom in on a 10Y/02Y) is signaling the opposite of the media narrative of higher rates for longer (pending Trump).
However, I believe bond bulls are preparing for economically stormy waters in equities. XLE appears to reflect this.
Considering Jan '27 70P's for wave A with a PT of 55-65$.

XLE AT A INTERESTING PRICE WHEN LOOKING AT THE PASTDoes this mean anything?
Yes and no.
you need more to go on than just this to project the move, however, if you assume middle trend is where this price wants to go to stabilize, and you see we are at a major spot when it comes to horizontal support.
I really can't tell yet where it goes.
The upside percentage is far less than the potential downside percentage.
Upside is favored, but again, I can't really tell on this one to say anything other than, it's at a horizontal mark that has been historically important.
Energy vs Tech : Analyzing Sector Performance and Market TrendsIntroduction:
The comparison between the energy sector (XLE) and the technology sector (XLK) provides valuable insights into current market trends. As the largest sector in the S&P 500, XLK often serves as a barometer for broader market strength. Conversely, when XLE outperforms XLK, it may signal caution, as XLE's smaller size limits its impact on the overall index.
Analysis:
Sector Comparison: XLK's performance is crucial in indicating market health. When XLK outperforms, it generally suggests a robust market outlook. On the other hand, if XLE starts to outperform XLK, this may indicate potential weakness in broader market conditions.
Inflationary Pressures: This ratio between XLE and XLK also reflects inflationary trends. A strong performance from XLE relative to XLK may signal rising inflationary pressures, which investors should closely monitor.
Charting the Pattern: The energy sector has formed an inverted saucer pattern. A breakout from this pattern could signify a positive upward trend and possibly a return to inflation.
Trade Setup:
Entry Point: Monitor the XLE/XLK ratio for a potential breakout confirmation.
Stop Loss: Consider setting a stop loss below the recent support level identified on the chart.
Target Price: Set a target based on the measured move from the breakout point of the inverted saucer pattern.
Conclusion:
The comparative performance of XLE and XLK offers essential insights into market dynamics and inflationary pressures. Traders should keep an eye on the potential breakout from the inverted saucer pattern in XLE, as it may indicate a shift in market trends. What are your thoughts on this analysis?

XLE: Rising Wave PatternTechnical analysis chart of the Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLE), with Elliott wave analysis overlaid. Let's break down the analysis based on the chart and labels:
Overall Analysis:
The chart suggests a bullish trend for XLE, based on the Elliott wave structure. It indicates that we have completed wave ((4)) of wave V and are now in the unfolding wave ((5)). Within wave ((5)), we have started wave (1), and are currently in wave (3) of (1).
Wave Counts and Labels:
V Red: This represents the fifth and final wave of a larger Elliott wave pattern.
((4)) Black: The fourth corrective wave within V.
((5)) Black: The fifth and final impulsive wave within V.
(1) Blue: The first impulsive wave within ((5)).
1 Red: The first wave within (1).
2 Red: The second corrective wave within (1).
3 Red: The third impulsive wave within (1) (currently unfolding).
Price Projection and Invalidation as per Waves:
Bullish Projection: The chart suggests a potential target of 105 for wave ((5)).
Invalidation Level: A break below 83.02 would invalidate the current bullish analysis.
Educational Notes:
Elliott wave theory is a technical analysis tool that identifies patterns in price movements based on a series of five waves.
Impulsive waves (1, 3, 5) move in the direction of the overall trend, while corrective waves (2, 4) move in the opposite direction.
Wave labels use brackets to indicate different levels of analysis. For example, ((5)) is a larger wave than (1).
Colors are often used to visually differentiate between different waves and patterns.

Is oil signalling a recession? Oil has really started to free fall.
The death cross on the daily chart has occurred. this is where the 50 MA intersects with the 200 MA in a downtrend.
This often implies more downside to the medium and long term but is often a great short term long signal.
Usually when you get this signal the market makers bounce the stock or commodity a bit before taking it lower.
We are hitting a massive multi year trend line going back to 2022 that should act as some support.
XLE looks ready for 1 more down leg before a swing tradable low is in.
Energy does have a tendency to fall precipitously so understanding oil can keep falling if investors fear the worst or a recession.
Opening (IRA): XLE October 18th 83 Monied Covered Call... for a 81.41 debit.

XLE longI think XLE could be a great place to hedge recent chip volitility. the 88 price level has been a consistent support level and with unrest in the middle east we could see oil prices rise. In my personal portfolio NVDA and QCOM are two of my largest holdings and with the recent corrections I've continued to load up however I've been buying XLE just as much to give myself some sort of saftey in the short term.
obviously not a financial advisor do what you want
Lock in Longterm value @ breakout levelsI would have to go on a 3H keyboard mashing to be able to present all the data pointing to the upside.
Breakout of longterm consolidation;
Retest of previous support + longterm trendline;
Breakout from support retest with an bullish engulfing pattern;
W and M indicators are either crossing into neutral zone or indicating an expansive move uP

Energy is going to get expensive as soon as the dollar drops!Bounced off long term 200 - crossover rolling over. The dollar will peak this summer and then go down to 97. I see energy exploding. August 100 calls are going for .25 which looks like a minimum 10x return. I see it going past 100, but don't have any estimations for how high it can go.
NFA ALWAYS!
Gearing up for all time high 2008 / 2014 / 2024 touching 90s each time. Currently monthly is holding my fast emas and right at support. Bullish for me until below slow emas / major pivot broken and retested. Flagging inside the ascending triangle. possible breakout to all time high and beyond.

Energy - which way are we headed?Energy does not look good right now. XLE+XOP has an inverse correlation to the gold/oil ratio. The two only move into neutral and positive correlations for brief periods before one of them changes direction. Additionally, when the gold/oil ratio crosses 30 we’ve seen energy prices begin to fall to more extreme lows.
The technicals above indicate gold is continuing higher . If we’re patient, this should lead to a very strong buying opportunity in energy.
Oil recently tested and rejected the 200SMA. This makes it more likely that we see another test of the green AVWAP tied to the covid low than a retest of the red one from the March 2022 high.
May Market Outlook, Sectors Rotation, Relative Strength AnalysisSince February, the commodities asset class has surged ahead, overshadowing the S&P 500's faltering performance. This notable shift in market dynamics underscores the resilience and strength exhibited by commodities during this period.
Of particular interest are the XLE and XLU sectors, which have emerged as frontrunners since early March. This transition coincided with the decline in momentum of previously dominant sectors like XLK and SMH (refer to Fig. 2). Notably, XLE and XLU, characterized as growth defensive sectors, have thrived amidst market downturns. Investing in commodities and energy/utility sectors during these phases could have yielded significant profits, with select energy stocks boasting returns exceeding 25%, while the S&P 500 experienced an approximate 10% decline.
Looking ahead to May, it's anticipated that XLE and XLU will maintain their market leadership, albeit with a slight loss in momentum. However, investors are advised to remain vigilant as these sectors may soon witness a change in dynamics. It's crucial to employ stop limit orders to safeguard profits in such volatile conditions.
Following the current trajectory, XLY, XLRE, and XLF are poised to emerge as significant players in the market cycle (refer to Fig. 3&4). However, it's important to note that these sectors are susceptible to rapid momentum shifts, particularly when XLK and XLC regain momentum.
Looking towards June, indications suggest that XLK and XLC will likely regain prominence in the market. For buy-and-hold investors, this presents an opportune moment to consider purchasing assets during market dips.
Considering these market dynamics, my top investment picks are (TSLA), (GOOG), (AAPL), (ORCL), and Cisco Systems, Inc. (CSCO). These companies demonstrate strong growth potential, especially when timed strategically to align with sector rotation leadership shifts.
