Up one week and down the next. After getting into the ASX 200 cfd position US Fed Chair Jerome Powell put a dampener on things saying there were heftier rate rises to come in the US and markets tanked…for one day. That was enough to be stopped out of our position at the time. This four-hour chart shows the drop and slow climb back.

The ASX 200 on the daily chart.

The price of gold has been showing some sign of strength and closing off the lows

Jumbo has moved above the downtrend line

Pilbara Minerals is in a consolidation type pattern

Nickel Industries may have put in a low for now

Evolution has been trading at 5 year lows and an ABC type pattern could provide a nice entry point. We bought a small parcel for the educational portfolio today.

QBE looks to be on the cusp of breaking higher

A longer term look at QBE.

Perenti could move a lot higher from here

Could former high flyer Avita Medical be forming a bottom?
