Bear flag or a bull flag

Pullback in a bull trend or a bear reversal
Monthly S&P500 Emini candle chart: Sell signal bar forming The monthly Emini candle chart is forming an ioi sell signal in an overbought bought bull trend, but there is still a lot of time before the bar closes and it could look bullish by the end of the month.

Intraday market update, March 12, 2015:
Oversold and at support
Posted 6:53 a.m. The Emini broke strongly above the 5 minute broad bull channel and had good follow-through on the breakout. The top of the 60 minute bear channel is around 2052, and that is an obvious target. With such a strong reversal up from such an oversold market, there is a 70% chance that […]

Trading range after the trend channel
Posted 6:54 a.m. Today opened with a doji within yesterday’s tight trading range.

Bear trend or a failed breakout
Posted 7:00 a.m. The Emini opened with a bull bar, but it had a tail on top. However, it was the 7th consecutive bull trend bar, and the Emini was always in long. Yesterday had a moving average gap bar at 11:15 a.m., and that usually is followed by a major trend reversal. Although the […]

Trading range and in breakout mode
Posted 6:50 a.m. The Emini had a big gap down, but reversed up again from the December high. Although the first several bars had bull bodies, they had prominent tails on top, which is a sign of a lack of conviction. When the market opens with a big gap and the reversal is not strong, […]

Head and shoulders top
Monthly S&P500 Emini candle chart: Bear ioi sell setup in buy climax The monthly Emini candle chart has a bear inside bar this month following last month’s outside up bar.

Trend reversal or a bull flag
Posted 7:05 a.m. Today opened with 3 consecutive bear bars, like the past 2 days, but it held above the moving average and reversed up in a bull opening reversal. The bulls want a leg 1 = leg 2 measured move up from yesterday’s rally. The bears want a failure at yesterday’s high. As I […]
