Today's report on StockCharts is short because the full report can be found at my new website, TrendInvestorPro.com. More details below. For now, I will leave you with the Core Emerging Markets ETF (IEMG) as its technical picture improves. The chart for IEMG looks similar to the Russell 2000 ETF in the US. Both surged from December to April and then declined the last five months. The trend since April remains down, but IEMG is challenging resistance from the September high and channel trendline.
Notice that there are two corrections on the chart and both overshot the 61.8% retracement lines. These retracement levels are not exact levels, but rather zones in which to increase awareness for a reversal. IEMG broke out with a surge in January and then overshot the 61.8% retracement again with this correction. The ETF is making noise again as it challenges resistance and a breakout would signal a continuation of the prior advance.
