Are Regional Banks Turning Higher?
Regional banks had a big surge in late 2023. Now, after a period of consolidation, some traders may expect further gains.
The first pattern on today’s chart of the SPDR S&P Regional Banking ETF is the falling trendline along the highs of January and early March. KRE is trying to clear that resistance, which may suggest a breakout is starting.
Second, price action has been very tight. Bollinger Bandwidth shows a potential volatility squeeze. Also notice how the 50- and 100-day simple moving averages (SMAs) are less than 1 percent away from each other. Will this narrow range of movement give way to a period of price expansion?
Third, the 200-day SMA has been rising since late December. That may reflect incipient bullishness over the longer term.
Next, the 8-day exponential moving average (EMA) has crossed above the 21-day EMA. That may reflect bullishness over the shorter term.
Finally, the low in early February represented a 50 percent retracement of the move between October 27 and December 14. Holding that area may confirm direction is turning upward.
