The Wagner Daily ETF Report For July 10

Stocks bounced off Tuesday's lows, closing with modest gains across the board. The only index that is no longer in a strong uptrend is the small cap Russell 2000, which broke a short-term uptrend line and the 20-day EMA this week.

Given the recent stalling action at the highs and sharp selloff, the odds now favor the Russell chopping around for a few weeks to digest the last wave up.

The daily chart of Russell 2000 ETF ($IWM) below details the resistance from the prior highs and broken uptrend line. As long as $IWM holds above the 50-day MA, then the consolidation should eventually lead to new 52-week highs:



On the stock side, we added two A-rated stocks to the model portfolio of The Wagner Daily this week in Tesla Motors ($TSLA) and Michael Kors ($KORS). $TSLA was purchased yesterday above Tuesday's bullish reversal candle.

Restoration Hardware ($RH) is another A-rated stock, but it is extended in the short-term after a big volume breakout to new all-time highs a few weeks ago. We are monitoring the price action for a pullback to the rising 10-week MA, which should catch up quickly to the price action over the next few weeks.



We have one new setup on today's swing trading watchlist in Tower Semiconductor ($TSEM), which has pulled back to the original breakout level at $9.50. There is quite a bit of support from moving averages on the daily and weekly chart above $9, so this pullback should hold if all is well.

On the ETF side, we have one new setup in real estate ETF ($IYR), which has formed a tight-ranged consolidation while holding above the rising 10-week moving average. Volume has declined during the base which is a good sign. A move above the downtrend line and last week's high should generate some buying interest.
