We assign a technical rating of 1 out of 10 to XLU. XLU has been an average performer in the overall market. Also recent evolutions are not that positive: both the medium and short term time frames give negative signs.
XLU has a poor technical rating and the quality of the setup is also only medium at the moment. Price movement has been a little bit too volatile to find a nice entry and exit point. It is probably a good idea to wait for a consolidation first.
