The Wagner Daily ETF Report For July 30

The Wagner Daily ETF Report For July 30

The recent post-earnings post-earnings gap up action in Under Armour ($UA) and Facebook ($FB), two individual stocks showing signs of fresh leadership, is a bullish sign for the market, even if the market remains range-bound for another week or two to digest recent gains. It indicates institutions remain in buy mode, even as the broad market chops around in a range.

Guggenheim Solar ETF ($TAN) continues to show relative strength to the broad market, but has been struggling with the $28.50 level (top of the range) over the past 10 sessions. Because of this, $TAN may need to visit the lower end of the range (around $27) to shake out some of the "weak hands." This would absorb overhead supply and enable $TAN to breakout more easily. We expect the price action to hold the $26.50 - $27 level, minus a shakeout day or two, as there is also support from the rising 20-day exponential moving average:



The First Trust ISE Revere Natural Gas ETF ($FCG), which tracks a basket of natural gas stocks (not the actual commodity), hasn't done much at this year other than chop around in a tight range. However, looking at the long-term monthly chart below, we see that the current consolidation is just below the monthly downtrend line:



Notice how the price range has tightened up nicely in 2013. While $FCG is currently not an actionable setup, it is something to keep an eye on for a potential trend reversal breakout above $18. If that occurs, we will be sure to give subscribers a heads-up to a potential swing trade buy entry.

Overall, our nightly ETF scans did not produce much in the way of presently actionable swing trade setups. Our $EWJ buy stop order remains live, but the price action broke down below the 50-day MA yesterday. Hopefully $EWJ can climb back above the 50-day MA by the end of the week. Pullback buy setups in $USO and $GSG remain in play as well (Wagner Daily subscribers should note our exact buy trigger and stop prices for these setups on today's watchlist).
