XLU trade ideas
Market "Risk Off" indicators warranting attentionThe long-term stock market trend unquestionably continues to be an upward one. However, there are seasonal and other factors (such as market breadth, etc) that may be pointing towards a potential pause or reversal.
Since no single indicator is fool-proof, a "weight of the evidence" approach is always warranted. Such an approach ideally includes a variety of indicators that could offer an advance signal of a switch from "risk on" to "risk off" environments. One such measure to consider in your toolbox is how defensive equities such as Utilities (typically sought out for their yield) are faring against the broader equity market. The accompanying relative strength measure plotting $XLU against $SPY has broken trend and reversing upward for the last several weeks. Again, not overwhelming by itself, but when coupled with other indicators (such as previously posted JNK or XLP updates) it warrants continued monitoring in the coming weeks.
Short term upswingNo fundamental support.
Just technicals and hopes.
Don't follow my idea without doing your research.
XLU, Immediate term trade and trend [08OCT2021]XLU went strong bearish. I love to add this to short side of my portfolio, but my broker doesn't unfortunately allow it.
Then why do I track it? well, The code tracks sectors and ETFs to give a current weather of the market.
From what I can see so far, we are headed to another liquidity rush. Where, Equities make new all time highs.
If you can add it to the short side, I would suggest also adding XLF to the long side, along with a small XLK position too.
Let's see how this plays out

XLU at the bottom of the channelThis has traded within a channel for over a year. No reason to think it won't continue.
XLU looking for Fibonacci extension.Utilities keeps pushing higher and is looking to be chasing for the extension to the 1.272 fib. This is a long term play that I have been looking at for a while now.
XLUInvestors appear to be taking risk off as they move into Utilities. XLU continues to move higher; weekly RSI is approaching 61.8 level. This level provided strong resistance over the past year or so. Therefore, a move past that level would be significant.
XLU short at 66.18Staying short Weekly heading down been taking profits on way down look lower highs
Utilities love both quads 3 and 4Given that is where we are headed (quad 3 or 4), I 'll be looking to build a position here. I'll specifically be looking for a momentum swing on the oscillator as a signal the regime turn is happening, or in fact in.
