well had some time on my hands and did a lil research on XLU
i compared some stocks from that sector aginst XLU and ended
up with the strongest and weakest stock ive found.

some observations...

it appears that both are on a springboard , if so will a resolve of the pot. springboard situation propell XLU out of the hinge? what do you guys think?

Oil is still within the hinge. There isn't much to do until the price leaves it.

Why not, trading inside of it is one of the most certain easiest trading out there.

 

Trade.Fighter,

You are right. If one has a plan to trade within the the hinge then who am I to object.

Oil lives in the hinge, is in its nature. Nice chart!

 

Technology, although in an uptrend is showing some signs of reduced demand. Price has been hovering around the mean (grey dotted line) for some time and mostly on the lower side of it. Now price is falling below the previous swing high. It's not a sign to go into panic mode but something to keep an eye on. A lot of other indexes are seemingly transitioning from purely uptrend to perhaps rest mode. We'll need more evidence before we're clear whether demand or supply holds the upper hand.

Price for now is finding it difficult to stay above 32.

Google is in a trading range. It's coming down to test the lower end of this range. It's interesting to note that price wasn't able to reach the up end of this range before turning down. It's a sign of a bit of weakness in my opinion. Whether the bottom of this TR is breached is another matter altogether.

Above we had the technology index slowing down. Here we have one of the tech leaders range bound. Until the range is exited I would leave this stock aside.
