Tel Aviv Stock Exchange: 3 Falling Peaks into a 3 Line StrikeBeyond just the implications of the war, the technical setup on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange looks very Bearish as if it's ready to collapse to new lows, as it has confirmed 3 Falling Peaks and will confirm a 3 Line Strike on the Monthly Timeframe in just 14 hours.
I expect that the exchange and all 15 of its Foreign and Domestic owners will be negatively affected in the process. Which mostly consist of Israeli Banks and Holdings Companies but also consist of Foreign banks such as UBS, BCS, HSBC, Citigroup, and Merrill Lynch International, which is owned by Bank of America, to name a few.

IWM: Breaking Down From A Bear Flag Visible on the MonthlyThe Russell 2000 has broken down from a Bear Flag that is visible on the monthly timeframe; at the same time, the RSI is breaking below trend and the MACD has flipped Bearish. If this goes like last time, it will result in a deep bearish retrace, perhaps all the way down to the $70s or even the $50s. One thing to keep in mind is that the Russell is heavily linked to Finacial Stocks and Banks, so this Bearish Setup here is likely more indicative of what's to come for the financial sector, including Banks, REITs, and other Services, than anything else.
Berkshire Hathaway: Bearish Gartley Hinting at a 40-60% DeclineBerkshire Hathaway is currently trading at the HOP level of a Bearish Gartley and at this HOP level, upon close, will likely confirm a Bearish PPO Confirmation Arrow as the PPO Oscillator itself gets closer and closer to breaking below a well established trend line.
Along with that, we have some Bearish Divergence on the MACD and the price action we got at the HOP resulted in a green Shooting Star Candlestick Reversal Pattern that we are working on confirming via a Weekly Bearish Engulfing.
If all goes as expected, I would think that the shares of Berkshire Hathaway will first pull back 27% which would put at the 2022 lows but after that I think it will likely pullback around 40%-60% to fill an unresolved gap at $314,850.00
Hilltop Holdings Bank: Bearish Cypher w/Double PPO ConfirmationHilltop Holdings has formed a W-shape, which I thought would complete an 0.886 and become a Bearish Shark, but it has since given 2-3 PPO Confirmation Circles around the 0.786 retrace instead. In addition, it has confirmed a lot of RSI Bearish Divergence within this zone; for that reason, I see a strong possibility that this ends up being a Bearish Cypher instead of a Bearish Shark and given that it is a bank, it will probably end up performing dramatically.
I will likely be looking into FAZ soon (The inverse ETF for the Financials sector) as it's sitting at the PCZ of a Bullish Gartley but just hasn't given any form of confirmation yet.
