Daily charts for the Australian market have taken a small turn – with a new five wave impulse downward pattern emerging.
Nothing serious but let’s look at key indices charts:

So just short-term weakness, as I would expect after this tiny shakeout we will see attempts at a new high:

But it is a rather tempered move which may fail to meet the old 2007 high:

As I have mentioned a few times in recent months, this contrasts with many global markets which have already well and truly taken out the old highs – the S&P 500 is a case in point and has cruised past the old high with the greatest of ease:

So there may be some short term plays in the local Australian market in the coming weeks.


 

Enjoy the ride
