Executive View
Our view last week
XLU consolidating within the NTZ, supported by long-term green signal; daily momentum shows fading weakness while weekly remains bearish. Awaiting confirmation on breakout from compression limits remains the priority for any operational entry.
This week's view by AiTrading67.com
The scenario is interesting in the short term, with daily MACD showing strong bullish strength and price awaiting confirmation. A break above immediate resistance would trigger the long setup; below the lower threshold would activate the short setup. Caution warranted while compression persists.
