On February 18, 2025, this is what I posted on MPTrader about KWEB (Chinese Internet ETF) that alerted traders to a potentially explosive setup that should keep KWEB on our radar screens going forward :
My attached Daily Chart shows that KWEB is attempting to emerge from a huge, three-year rounded base-accumulation setup that projects much higher prices as the price structure climbs the "recovery wall of worry" in the aftermath of the relentless bear phase from the February 2021 ATH at 104.94 to the October 2022 low at 17.22... Last is 35.60...
This past Friday (8/22/25), KWEB recorded a post-market final trade of 38.58, above its 11-month down trendline, pushing up against a multi-year resistance zone between 38.80 and 39.40 that, if (when?) hurdled and sustained, will trigger much higher intermediate-term price potential (See my attached Daily Chart).
Although the underlying reasons for the pent-up price strength are debatable, such as reduced perceived trade tensions between the U.S. and China, Chinese Government policy support, Chinese breakthroughs in AI technology, and relatively attractive valuations compared to U.S. big tech companies, there is less debate that, technically, the 3+ year base-accumulation period is telling us something very positive is brewing in the Chinese tech sector.
In any case, next week in particular, with NVDA reporting Earnings on Wednesday evening, should be extremely telling for KWEB as well.

On January 2, 2026, this is what I posted about CAVA (Cava Group Casual Mediterranean Cuisine) to MPTrader members:After CAVA's meteoric climb from 29.00 in October 2023 to an ATH at 172.65 in November 2024, the stock rolled over into a relentless decline that hit its low at 43.
On the morning of April 9, 2026, this is what I posted about SMR (NuScale Power Corp) to our Discussion Room for MPTrader members:SMR (Nuscale Power Corp)-- Three views of this beleaguered, former high-flying modular nuclear power producer that has been in the grasp of a relentless six-month, 84% bear phase:-- From the perspective of my 4-hour Chart, SMR has the right look of nearing the completion of the downleg that started at the Jan. 2026 recovery rally high of 22.
On the morning of April 7, 2026, this is what I posted for MPTrader members about my interpretation of the near-term technical setup exhibited by META:My preferred technical scenario for META argues that the stock established a significant near-term low at 520.00 on 3/27/26 that resides within an August 2025 to March 2026, incomplete larger corrective process.
Thirty minutes after the opening bell on November 24, 2025, I posted the following heads-up to MPTrader members about the technical setup in META:META has the right technical look of a significant U-Turn to the upside after completing a 27% August-November correction from 796.25 (8/15/25) to 580.32 (11/21/25)... To gain more powerful upside traction, META needs to climb and sustain above nearest-term resistance at 614.70 to 616.50, which if (when) taken out, will open a higher price pathway to the 670 area to challenge the down-sloping 200 DMA... Last is 609.27...
Last Friday morning, to calm frazzled nerves amid a 1% pre-market plunge that was threatening to complete a 100% give back of the prior week's 3.
