Trading Update: Monday July 1, 2024
S&P Emini pre-open market analysis
Emini daily chart
- Last Friday, founder sellers went above the June high and reversed down, forming an outside down day. The odds favor a second leg down and test of the moving average over the next several days.
- The bears are hopeful that last Friday is the start of a strong selloff. However, the odds are against today, forming a strong follow-through bar.
- Outside bars are trading range bars, which increases the odds of buyers below last Friday’s low.
- The bulls will try and create an inside bar today as an attempt at a failed breakout.
- Last Friday’s outside down bar is strong enough that the odds favor a second leg down, even if the Bears get a brief pullback first.
- The moving average is a logical target to reach, which is near 5,500, and the market will probably reach both sometime soon.
- Traders should expect today to be a disappointing bar for the bears and not a strong bear trend bar.
