Soybean Chart Analysis

traderdannorcini.blogspot.com / Dan Norcini / 
Ever since that last USDA report, wherein the agency surprised the market with a big jump in planted acreage, the beans have been on the defensive. That report, plus the continuation of very good growing conditions changed the dynamic completely in the beans. Prior to the report, the focus of many traders was the continued tightness in old crop carryover. Simply put, the market was of a mind to ration demand so as not to run out of available bean supply prior to this year’s harvest. 

It was that old crop carryover tightness that had been the driving factor particularly in the July and to some extent, the August bean contracts. New crop November had been yanked, tugged, pulled and generally distorted by the buying in those former mentioned contracts.

To review Qihoo’s stock, please take a look at the 1-year chart of QIHU (Qihoo 360 Technology Co. Ltd.) below with my added notations:

After selling off in March and April, QIHU has formed a trend line of support (purple) since its May bottom. Always remember that any (2) points can start a trend line, but it’s the 3rd test and beyond that confirm its relevance. As you can see, the market deems QIHU’s trendline to be very important. In addition, the stock also has a key level of support at $75 (green).

The Tale of the Tape: QIHU has a trend line support and a lower $75 support. A long position could be entered on a pullback down to the trendline, which currently sits near $92. A short position could be entered if QIHU were to break below the trendline with an expectation of a fall back down to $75.

kingworldnews.com / July 9, 2014
With global stock markets recently hitting new and in some cases all-time highs, KWN is pleased to share a chart which exposes the nightmare of bullish sentiment that the Fed has created.  The spread between the bulls and bears is now solidly in the danger zone as the astonishing chart below illustrates. 
Here is the latest Investors Intelligence report along with the all-important sentiment chart:  Markets started the long July 4 weekend with the main indexes all at highs. Indicators also strengthened over the week, with most oscillators overbought and at their prior top levels. A few newsletter editors noted the strong action and shifted back to bullish, including some changes after yesterday’s modest decline. The result was a resumption of the overly optimistic expectations recently shown. Again they signal potential danger ahead for the market.
