XLI trade ideas
Industrials XLI to keep moving upSector ETFs are great ways to make long term plays and gain more than just buying the broader market.
We like industrials on several factors including re-opening.
However, we can't emphasize enough that our system is more based on Reward to Risk Ratios and having the right Stop-losses on swing trades
as well as long term investments.
Industrials and Basic Materials have a decent outlook to continue forward especially on a longer term basis.
XLI -- Watch for 2.1.21Setting up to start working back up to the 90 level.
Might be a nice swing next week. (2.1.21).
1) Volume is picking up over the last few days
2) RSI is looking higher. Still be low 50, but a move across the 50 line might signal a move back up.
3) MACD contracting toward bullish, might be a signal more bullish movements might be coming soon as people
rotate out of GME and into other things.
Will be watching this one into early next week.
Best of Luck,

Institutional Sneak Attack on XLII spotted some very high volumes coming in right at the end of market close and during after hours trading on XLI. Massive volumes = institutional traffic. However, price levels didn't actually move much until late into AH trading, when a tiny amount of volume (orders totaling 102 only) did a gap up in price to $63.88. This suggests a gap up breakout could occur, but this also feels heavily manipulated, so be careful here. I wanted to raise awareness of this movement and will be closely monitoring XLI on Monday.
Sector Watch: IndustrialsGood: 2012 monthly upward channel in tact. Upward pressure building in weekly chart for breakout to higher RSI and upper part of channel if the trade truce happens, which is likely.
Neutral: If no break out above $80 resistance then range bound building pressure to break in direction of trade truce.
Bad: Is it too late for the global economy or can all the liquidity blunt the downside and create a soft bottom and recovery?
Expectations: Trade truce happens and industrials run on hope, then get cautious until recession gets real, which seems unavoidable.
You should keep an eye on the Industrial ETFNote the Rectangle Pattern on the daily Timeframe :
The price heading toward the Supply line (Resistance) for the 3rd attempt.
Note the Volume Pick on the Demand line Reaction (Support), note also the 2 Bottoms that formed before the last Rally,
The price is still above the MUT (Major Trend Line), and the overall picture is positive.
In a case of Rectangle Up Penetration, Im looking for long above the resistance of 80.07.
