Australia  (ASX)
The trend on the All Ords is still strong, closing at 3285 .
 

 
Banks & Finance
The Banks & Finance index appears to be weakening after a strong run, the MACD has crossed to below its signal line.
 

 




Conclusion
Entries this late in the trend are higher risk. Make sure that stops can be set within a limit of 2% on short-term trades.
Long-term trades: Wait for a correction on the secondary cycle.
