Japan’s Nikkei 225 Index is retreating from its 2010 high of 11500 on the monthly chart. Reversal below 11000 would suggest a correction to 10000. Respect of support, however, would indicate a fresh primary advance.

China’s Shanghai Composite Index was closed last week for Chinese New Year.
Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index re-opened Thursday, finding support at 23000. Breakout above 24000 would test the 2010 high of 25000. Troughs high above the zero line on 13-week Twiggs Money Flow indicate buying pressure. Reversal below 23000 is unlikely but would warn of a correction.
