1) I discuss risk management techniques and how we will know soon if we're wrong on our thesis,

2) a specific ratio that is a coincident and, often times, a leading indicator for US Stocks, and

3) how we identify specific trade ideas using the top/down approach, with 2 ideas in particular that we want to take advantage of today.

Thank you to everyone who responded to this week's mystery chart.

There were a lot of people on the right track in guessing what it was...but nobody got it exactly, which serves you right for guessing.

In any case, most of you are taking a neutral or bullish approach to the chart and agreed that a potential trend reversal is in the works.

Let's take a look.

In May we wrote a post for premium members titled "Technology Issues Continue", speaking about a failed breakout and general lack of trend in Indian Technology stocks.

Our conclusion then was to be avoiding the sector on the long side and that its weakness was a drag on the broader market given its 10% weighting in the Nifty 500.

Today, not much has changed, in fact, it's arguably getting worse.

Let's take a look.

If you look at a list of the best-performing stock markets in the world this year and over the last few, you'll see New Zealand towards the top of that list in both local currency and US Dollar terms.

With that said, today's Chart of The Week is focused on another New Zealand chart that's NOT equities.

Don't worry, we'll talk equities too for you non-currency traders.

What I always like to say is that Technical Analysis doesn't give us all the answers, but it certainly goes a long way in helping us ask the right questions. That's what this is all about.

Today I have 2 questions I'm asking:

The Nifty 50 and Nifty 500 are back at the top of their multi-year range right as we're starting to see signs of exhaustion in various global markets.

Failed breakouts and bearish momentum divergences help us to identify potential reversals in the market and we're seeing a few of them occur in India and elsewhere.

Over the weekend I was running our "Weekend Momentum Report" for Institutional Clients and the message was very similar to last week, so I thought it was worth sharing.

With a new month come fresh monthly candles.

While we were going to write a comprehensive post on the most important monthly charts from November, we realized there are only two that matter to India's stock market right now.

Let's take a look.

Are you guys noticing how the new 52-week high list keeps getting longer, and not shorter?

I can't emphasize enough how the lies about weak market breadth have been just that: Lies, or myths, or whatever words you need to use that won't offend people. I stopped caring about that sort of thing a long time ago and just tell it like it is (someone has to). I'm just not seeing the weak breadth scenario playing out like they keep telling me. It's actually been quite the opposite. We've been seeing expansion in participation for months. So this is really nothing new.

The Value Line Index has been a helpful barometer of US Stock Market strength in the past, and today is no different.

In this week's Chart of The Week, we discussed the lackluster rally attempt in international stocks relative to the S&P 500.

We concluded that the trend of underperformance remains firmly intact, which brings us to this week's mystery chart reveal.

Let's take a look.
