To grasp the methodology utilized in developing the target EM Nation ETF Particular person Technical Rankings go to the mc’s technical indicators web page at www.themarketscompass.com and choose “em nation etfs”. What follows is a Cliff Notes model* of the complete rationalization of the methodology I take advantage of…
*The technical rating system is a quantitative method that makes use of a number of technical issues that embrace however should not restricted to development, momentum, measurements of accumulation/distribution and relative energy of every particular person 20 EM Nation ETFs that may vary between 0 and 50. The Whole EM Technical Rating or “TEMTR” is the sum of the twenty particular person TRs and will be considered as an overbought / oversold indicator in addition to a affirmation / non-confirmation indicator. There’s additionally a Whole Rating for every geographic area that may be considered as a relative measurement on per week over week foundation.
This previous week The Whole EM Technical Rating or “TEMTR” fell -8.48% to 669.5 from 731.5 the earlier week which was up barely from the 728 studying three weeks in the past for the week ending 2/13. The Whole Asia-Pacific Rating fell probably the most within the three geographic areas, down -13.1% to 269 from 310 the week earlier than. The Whole EMEA EM Rating fell -5.3% to 203.5 from 215. The Whole Lat AM EM Rating fell -4.8% to 196.5 from 206.5 the earlier week.
4 of the twenty EM Nation ETFs I observe in these pages registered a acquire of their Technical Rankings or TRs over the previous week; 4 had been unchanged and twelve had TRs that fell, of which two fell double digits. The iShares MSCI India Index Fund ETF (INDA) and the International X MSCI Columbia ETF (COLO) TRs fell -13 and -11 respectively. Final week ten TRs had been within the “inexperienced zone” (TRs between 34.5 and 50), seven had been within the “blue zone” (TRs between 15.5 and 34), and three had been within the “purple zone” (TRs between 0 and 15). The earlier week, fourteen of the EM Nation ETF TRs ended the week within the “inexperienced zone”, 5 had been within the “blue zone”, and one was within the “purple zone” marking a technical deterioration in EM. The typical TR loss was -3.11 vs a median TR acquire the earlier week of +0.18.
*To grasp the development the of The Technical Situation Elements go to the Market’s Compass web site www.themarketscompass.com and go to the mc’s technical indicators web page and choose “em nation etfs”.
A brief model of the how the Technical Situation Elements are calculated follows…
There are eight Technical Situation Elements (“TCFs”) which can be a summation of the twenty ETFs TRs technical situation of every TCF query. The eight Technical Situation Elements don’t ask the identical variety of questions. That’s the reason it’s calculated as a share. If a TCF particular person studying is 100% that may imply that each one Twenty ETFs fullfilled that specific TCF criterior.
This previous week a studying of 37.86% was registered within the Each day Momentum Technical Situation Issue (”DMTCF”) or 53 out of a potential complete of 140 optimistic factors.
As a affirmation instrument, if all eight TCFs enhance on a week-over-week foundation, extra of the 20 ETFs are enhancing internally on a technical foundation, confirming a broader market transfer increased (consider an advance/decline calculation). Conversely if all eight TCFs fall on a week-over-week foundation it confirms a broader market transfer decrease. Final week, just one TCF rose, and 7 fell.
The Relative Rotation Graph, generally known as RRGs had been developed in 2004-2005 by Julius de Kempenaer. These charts are a singular visualization instrument for relative energy evaluation. Chartists can use RRGs to investigate the relative energy traits of a number of securities towards a standard benchmark, (on this case the EEM) and towards one another over any given time interval (within the case under, every day) over the previous three weeks. The facility of RRG is its potential to plot relative efficiency on one graph and present true rotation. All RRGs charts use 4 quadrants to outline the 4 phases of a relative development. The Optuma RRG charts makes use of, From Main (in inexperienced) to Weakening (in yellow) to Lagging (in pink) to Bettering (in blue) and again to Main (in inexperienced). True rotations will be seen as securities transfer from one quadrant to the opposite over time. That is solely a quick rationalization of find out how to interpret RRG charts. To study extra, see the put up scripts and hyperlinks on the finish of this Weblog.
Not all 20 ETFs are plotted on this RRG Chart. I’ve executed this for readability functions. These which I imagine are of upper technical curiosity stay.
Three weeks in the past the iShares MSCI South Korea Index Fund ETF (EWY) started to hook increased within the Weakening Quadrant and the next week to began to assemble a tempo and entered the Main Quadrant with enhancing upside Relative Power Momentum and on the finish of final week the EWY registered the most effective Relative Ratio vs. the EEM at 107.59 (see the Tabulation Desk under). The iShares MSCI Thailand Market Index Fund ETF (THD) rolled over within the Main Quadrant two weeks in the past and has been shedding Relative Power Momentum since and is one or two days from slipping into the Weakening Quadrant. The iShares MSCI Brazil Index Fund ETF (EWZ) fell into the weakening Quadrant three weeks in the past and has continued to trace decrease shedding Relative Power. The VanEck Vectors Vietnam ETF (VNM) has been gaining Relative Power Momentum for 3 weeks and entered the Bettering Quadrant leaving the Lagging Quadrant behind.
The “Tabulation Desk” under marks the Relative Power and Relative Power Momentum readings vs. the iShares MSCI Rising Markets Index ETF or EEM. It begins with the readings on the finish of final week adopted by the trailing three weeks that features the readings from the final Examine for the week ending 1/16. If there was an enchancment in both the Relative Power Ratio or the Relative Power Momentum studying on a week-over-week foundation I’ve highlighted it in inexperienced. If there was a contraction in both, it’s highlighted in purple and an unchanged studying in both will stay black. The colour-coding system serves as a warmth map over the previous 4 Friday’s readings highlighting both the continued enchancment, deterioration, or stasis vs. the benchmark, the EEM. The ETFs which can be displayed on the RRG chart above are highlighted in blue.
*The “TEMTR” is the sum of the 20 Particular person Goal EM ETF Technical Rankings. It serves as an overbought or oversold in addition to a affirmation / non-confirmation indicator.
The sub-title of this week’s Examine is “IMO Somethings Gotta Give. The technical cause for that secondary title will be seen on the chart above. The Whole Em ETF Rating or TEMTR fell under the 13-Week Exponential Shifting common (purple line) to a sub-700 studying final week whereas EEM rose to a brand new Weekly closing excessive. The Shifting common has begun to roll over. That is notable divergence as costs rallied to new highs. As can be seen on the shorter-term Weekly and Each day chart there are extra technical options that recommend that the EEM is stretched and due for a bigger pullback in worth.
*The “ATR” just like the “TEMTR” serves as an overbought or oversold in addition to a affirmation / non-confirmation indicator.
As can be seen on the Each day chart that follows these feedback on the Weekly chart, on Friday the EEM initially spiked increased overtaking the Higher Parallel (stable gold line) of the Schiff Modified Pitchfork (gold P1-P3) on the Weekly chart above however by the top of the day it returned to the confines of the Pitchfork. The Rising Markets Whole Situation Issue Oscillator has fallen over the previous 5 weeks in a divergence from the current intra-week highs at 65.90. The 8-Week Stochastic Momentum Index (middle panel) has begun to roll over from a overbought excessive and the Common EM Technical Rating has additionally rolled over and is teetering on Shifting Common help.

Extra on the technical situation of the EEM in Ideas on the Brief-Time period Technical Situation of the EEM however first…
*Doesn’t embrace dividends if any.
Seven of the twenty EM Nation ETFs had been up on an absolute foundation final week and 13 traded decrease over the week. Seven of the EM ETFs outperformed the +0.38% acquire within the EEM on a relative foundation and 13 underperformed. The typical five-day absolute acquire within the EM ETFs was 0.00% vs. a 0.38% acquire within the EEM. The earlier week the common absolute acquire was +2.00%.
The Each day chart above reveals aforementioned Friday’s intra-day spike increased by means of the Higher Parallel (stable purple line) of the shorter-term Schiff Modified Pitchfork (purple P1-P3) and the following reversal that adopted with a break under the Median Line. The Stochastic Momentum Index has rolled over from overbought territory by means of its sign line. Probably the most regarding short-term technical characteristic is displayed within the decrease panel. The EM Nation ETF Each day Momentum / Breadth Oscillator has turned decrease once more at a decrease excessive (yellow dotted line) and has fallen under each transferring averages in a non-confirmation of final week’s new worth highs. All of those technical factors recommend {that a} correction of a bigger diploma is within the playing cards.
