Putting the XOI charts led me to revisit the weekly charts of these 4 MLPS...and in spite of the daily charts which may not be the prettiest...i have had the feeling that they have been basing. The weekly charts of these 4 MLPS look like they are on the verge of breaking out. It has been very encouraging during this energy sell-off that MLPS at least so far have not dropped as hard as they did in November-December....volume the last few days has been quite light. There has been a push and pull feel to the tape the last several days.

Meanwhile unlike last quarter...no stock sales at least so far. Perhaps these companies are done issuing more shares at least for now.
