“A rule of thumb for trading is that major support lines normally hold while minor support levels usually break. What that means for EWG is uncertainty: a jump back to recent highs or a fall off a cliff.” — Sara Nunnally

Baltimore – (TFN): The iShares MSCI Germany ETF (EWG) will make a lot of people a lot of money in the next 12 weeks… but not everyone.
This chart shows EWG trading at a critical support level. A rule of thumb for trading is that major support lines normally hold while minor support levels usually break. What that means for EWG is uncertainty: a jump back to recent highs or a fall off a cliff.
I’m biased towards a fall off the cliff. Just look at momentum getting ready to turn negative like Karl Rove in a presidential campaign.
Not to mention that manufacturing numbers show a fall of 2.4% when economists expected a rise of 0.3%. Read on to find a chart of EWG’s performance and learn more.
