I am not going to say a whole lot because there hasn’t been a big enough change in indices from the weekend to warrant another post. The Semiconductor Index is working a bullish bounce in technicals, despite doing little with price. There was a return in bullish technicals with CCI, +DI/-DI, Stochastics and Relative Strength all showing ’buy’ triggers. Only the MACD remains on a ’sell’ trigger, and when it switches, technicals will become net bullish.

The Semiconductor Index is playing out a sideways pattern in price. Monday’s doji will have barely registered on anyone’s radar, but with the return above moving averages, it only leaves peak highs to break.SOX-Daily Chart

Bitcoin managed to break through its moving averages in a modest 1% gain on low volume, with only all-time highs to challenge. This looks like an early phase rally with a buy-in opportunity still available here.BTC/USD-Daily Chart

I didn’t mention the Dow Jones Industrial Average ($DJIA) over the weekend, but it is offering a decent risk:reward on the long side with risk defined on a loss of 45K. Technicals are net bullish, further confirmation for a long trade.Dow Jones-Daily Chart

For the rest of the week, continue to play on the long side where the risk:reward remains favorable (as there is no overhead resistance).
