Well, if you didn’t know it, I can confirm the Australian market has been in the doldrums for four months:

Just drifting at sea.

There is still no sign of direction in the daily chart. Nor do we see any trend emerging on the weekly or monthly charts:

The monthly chart is maybe giving a hint of a double top. If it breaks through, the sky is the limit but if it does not, then we could be staring down a cliff edge.


The Financial sector – our major sector - gives us a little positive sign in that we could see completion of a wave five pattern as it moves higher to complete a wave five high. Albeit a small one

The only major sector where I see some possible major movement is Materials:

But as this is a weekly chart it could take some time to play out – several months perhaps.

So, you may as well just extend your holiday!




Enjoy the ride
