ASX Australia
The All Ordinaries closed down 11 points at 3037 on higher

indicate the state of the October/November rally.
The primary trend will reverse (up) if the index rises above 3150.
The Slow Stochastic (20,3,3) is above its signal line; MACD (26,12,9) is above; Twiggs money flow signals accumulation.

QBE Insurance [QBE]
After a sharp fall in 2001, QBE has formed an ascending triangle with the upper border at 8.15. Relative strength (price ratio: xao) is rising, as are Twiggs money flow and MACD.

On the equivolume chart the long shadow and fairly heavy volume
at [13] indicates selling pressure. The subsequent low at [14],
lower than the previous low at [12], also indicates trend
weakness. Volume on the subsequent rally is strong but gains
are small and it may take several more swings before there is a
re-test of resistance at 8.15.
If there is a breakout, the target is 10.25 (8.15 + 8.15 - 6.05).
