XLE, bullish divergence?1 month ago, i warned that if price failed to regain above ~88.70 it might mean a potential wave 5. And indeed it happened with a gap down passing by the bear flag and previous support of 82.05. My short entry triggered at 88.06 and i exited fully at 75.45. Once that little black gap is filled, i humbly tell myself that the OPEC created wave 5 is completed, plus the bullish divergence in MACD & RSI. Two days before the black gap, there is a BULLISH ENGULFING candlestick pattern on 28th & 31st Dec 2012 with massive volume. And this ~71.34 level also have 2 confluence supporting lines extended previously. Any price between 70-75 is a good average buy for me :-) Projection/Speculation for the next few months is formation of inverted H&S to fill that wave 4-5 GAP Apologize for complicating lines

Wave 5 brewing for XLE?Channel B is a typical health uptrend. But things get out of control and went euphoric producing a Head & Shoulder at extended Channel A. Price fell back to Channel B and launched another break out but failed due to double resistance of neckline which is also Channel B resistance. Subsequently, it was a one sided affair from the bears hitting price straight below channel B and culminated momentarily at downtrend channel bottom. Using the simplest EW wave analysis i understand, i am seeing the maturing of wave 4. As highlighted in the blue resistance region, which arises from confluence of downtrend channel top + Channel B bottom + horizontal resistance. If there is a break out and price go higher, 200ema will be a good rejection point. If blue resistance is very strong, once price started to head lower.. i would consider wave 4 completed. Essentially i am anticipating a final wave 5 to be in play which could be leveled around 77 or lower, by then we would have a lower low in price and higher low in both indicator to give a stronger signal to long.

Energy Select Sector SPDR (ETF) (NYSEARCA:XLE) Is LeadingToday the markets are seeing some ugly declines and to the average investor, there seems to be no bottom in sight. Everyone is looking at Ebola as the culprit for spooking the markets. While this might be true, I am looking at Energy Select Sector SPDR (ETF) (NYSEARCA:XLE) as the reason this market has seen a dramatic fall recently. I wrote an article a couple months ago as seen here, discussing how the Energy Select Sector SPDR (ETF) (NYSEARCA:XLE) had diverged from the overall market and was talking to us. While this market might have some more downside to it, I am looking at the weekly chart of Energy Select Sector SPDR (ETF) (NYSEARCA:XLE), as you can see, we are into a very good support area here around $77.25. In my opinion, it is the XLE chart that will dictate the market direction, not Ebola.

Energy Sector, Temporary Bottom?In feb, when DJIA triggered a massive long signal, this energy XLE sector was brought along for half a year. However, when the price hit the top, there wasn't any MACD & RSI divergence signals at all. End of July saw the break of short-term uptrend line twice, which trigger a sell signal. Subsequently the price has engaged in the downtrend channel nicely. On friday's close, it was another bearish candle with the fact that crude oil futures drop below $90 and close at 89.71. But i am doing a little big of contrarian long again here due to: 1. the downtrend channel seems to be well respected upper and lower 2. RSI has no bullish divergence level, but it is way way OVERSOLD! 3. Bullish divergence happen in CCI, although CCI gives randomly reliable signal 4. two rejection below 88 5. the volume for last three trading day looks like climatic selling (while Funds are climatic buying?) and this volume is comparable to the temporary bottom back in Feb. 1st target will be around 92 which coincide with the resistance of downtrend channel and slight around 200ema. Anything more bullish can see it test 94.88 again.

Market Rally Is Lacking Energy Select Sector SPDR (ETF) (NYSEARCThe S&P 500 made a low of 1904.78 on August 7, and has basically gone straight up since that day. If you look at the chart, it has formed a perfect "V" and is looking to challenge its all time high of 1991.39. The Nasdaq has definitely lead the charge higher, crossing the 4500 mark for the first time in 14 years! While the markets have moved higher, I notice that the energy sector (as represented by the Energy Select Sector SPDR (ETF) (NYSEARCA:XLE) has not participated in this rise. The Energy Select Sector SPDR (ETF) (NYSEARCA:XLE) is a very key sector and was one of the market leaders when the S&P 500 was making new all time highs on a daily basis. The reason for the under performance by this group has primarily been due in large part to the declining price of crude oil, which has fallen by 12% since mid June. This under performance could be foretelling of something that smart investors are not looking at right now. So is this energy weakness a buying opportunity? I have included a chart below showing the weekly chart for the Energy Select Sector SPDR (ETF) (NYSEARCA:XLE). As you can see, it is nowhere near its high watermark of $101.52, which was set back on June 23. Does this mean that the sector will play catch up to the broader indexes? Well with summer winding down and the end of the "driving season" fast approaching, I would suspect further downside could be in the tank. The chart is telling us all this, as it is currently forming a bearish pattern. While these markets have had this impressive rally off the lows, this chart clearly shows it could be lacking the needed "energy" to keep it going.

Oil investors bewarehello all, while scanning the broader market I recently stumbled upon the energy sector's ETF (XLE) and the message I got was startling to say the least. Energy itself has been on quite a run of late but it appears as though that rally may have run out of steam. Indeed, the Double top registered through late July looks rather solid and support levels look a long way away from current levels. For those that missed the original topping even, I could see a nice rally off the 38.2 Fib ('1st stop' target) back up into resistance. The OTE (short) zone at the moment coincides with both the down trend line off the top and some gaps that ought to be filled. If I wasn't short now, I would use that counter trend rally (OTE short sweet spot 99.30) to get short and risk against that double top high (101.52). Targets remain the 50% level (91.65) and ultimately the OTE (long) zone and its sweet spot near 87.00. Cheers all and hope my simple analysis is of benefit Brian aka CRInvestor
