The Wagner Daily ETF Report For December 19

The Wagner Daily ETF Report For December 19

The stock market responded favorably to Wednesday's Fed meeting, as the major averages ripped higher in the afternoon session and posted significant gains (1% or more) across the board.

The strong price action was confirmed by heavy volume on both exchanges (NYSE +32% volume increase and NASDAQ +20%). The combination of strong price and volume action produced a very bullish session, which could spark the next wave up in the market.

With an explosive afternoon session, our long position in Direxion Financial Bull 3x ETF ($FAS) closed at a new high for the year on big volume. We remain long from our $78.70 entry on November 14 (9.7% unrealized price gain).

The PowerShares Private Equity ETF ($PSP), which we pointed out in yesterday's ETF commentary, triggered for buy entry and also closed at a new 52-week high.

Like many stocks and ETFs, iShares Hong Kong ETF ($EWH) put in a bullish reversal candle yesterday. After undercutting the low of December 11, $EWH then reversed back up to close above the 50-day MA. Volume was strong as well, coming in at 50% above the 50-day moving average of volume:



On the weekly chart below, notice $EWH is poised to breakout from a seven-month long consolidation. Notice that the price action has formed a tight range over the past two months just below the high of last May:



If $EWH can clear the highs of 2013, then it should have a clear path to $24, where there is resistance from the prior high of 2007:



Based on the bullish reversal pattern of $EWH, this ETF has been added to today's watchlist.
