Technical Analysis

iShares MSCI Emerging Markets / Technical Analysis

Chartonics weekly Monday 30 May 2016Squeeze ripples - trade the fadeWe did get the touted S&amp;P induced short squeeze in Europe and EM’s while re positioning for this rise. Our long US/short EM and Europe positioning stands while adding to our Euro bank short and adjusting Asian shorts. Emerging markets remain the top short bet and weakest region followed by Europe(relative uptick to fade).DXY nudging above 95.40 is constructive butneeds to clear 95.60 minor trendline to be able to challenge 96.50 MT inflection resistance. Pullback support comes in at 94.40-60. We remain dollar bullish after a rest. Upcoming NFP will add fuel to this rise?Brent 49.30 short squared at 48.94 for push toward 52 to re set short. Bull momentum fading. RTS short squared for a 5.66% gain and will re set short at 950/Brent 50.95/52.50. Plan to re set CAD short near 1.2830.S&amp;P long position yet to fade and pushing for the danger zone above 2,100 where previous tops have unfolded. US equities are favored over Europe and EM’s. DJI reverse from underperform for uptick.  Looking to re set relative tech short on strength.Europe – Squared CAC long and rolling back into Euro banks short (average at SX7E 107.90).EEM squeeze (RSI broke above 40) risk to 33.50, followed by a test on EEM 30.50 pivot support. EEM 31 is where we look to cover our short. Break below 30.50 would induce a secondary down leg to short. Letting the dust settle before shorting Turkey near 80k resistance.Asia shorts – Short HK property as a key theme (Shanghai due to break lower thus looking to short 2823 once this push fades), Singapore with bias to lock in gains (DBS 15.26 short needs adjusting out), Korea 242 pivot and Australia is not turning down. Taiwan average short at 8,363 and under scrutiny.China – Shanghai flat pattern set to break lower for a fast slide to test 2,650 - to inflect Australia?Asia longs – India long added to on May 25 and is the top long bet. HK long hedge from HSI 20,300 and added HSCEI on Friday. Asia for the most part is likely to pop  higher and fade.Cycles – June 1-4 is the next important timeline linked to turns in oil, stocks and FX, and falls in line with the NFP release. USD rest or explode higher?
