June Crude [CLM9>CLM9], on the Momentum 5 and Pullbacks From Highs Lists, closed well today and appears to be pivoting out of its pullback (a). Look for a buying opportunity here as the long term trend remains up.

The June Canadian Dollar [CDM9>CDM9], mentioned last Friday night as a Trend Knock Out (see archive), is still on both the Momentum 5 and Pullbacks From Highs Lists. Continue to look for a buying opportunity as the long term trend remains up.
Volatility Watch
As you know, historical volatility is based on the closing prices only. Notice that the June Japanese Yen [JYM9>JYM9] has had very little change on a closing basis over the past 5 days. This action (or lack thereof) keeps it on the Volatility Explosions-Multiple Days List. Continue to watch for a larger than normal move (in either direction) as volatility reverts back to its mean.
Best of luck with your trading on Tuesday!
