S&P Emini market analysis
Emini daily chart
- The Emini formed a bear bar yesterday, closing above its midpoint. This is a sign that bulls are beginning to take partial profits due to the risk of getting big.
- The odds favor a test down to the October 17th low. However, it may take several weeks for that to happen.
- The rally up to the November high is strong enough that the odds favor a 2nd leg up.
- While the bears have done a good job, they must do more. Ideally, they need to get a series of bar bars closing below their midpoints.
- The bears will see the rally from the November low as a buy climax late in a bull trend and hope the market will test down to the November low.
- The bears must add to the selling pressure to convince bulls to buy back shorts. This would cause more bears to sell with the bulls and increase the odds of a reversal down to the November low.
- Overall, traders should expect a trading range and the market to go sideways for several days.
Emini 5-minute chart and what to expect today
- The Emini opened with a little to no gap at the start of the U.S. Session. This increases the odds that there will be a lot of trading range price action today.
- Traders should consider not trading for the first 6-12 bars unless they can make quick decisions.
- There is an 80% chance of a trading range open, which means the odds favor the market, forming either a double top/bottom or a wedge top/bottom.
- Most traders should wait for the above-mentioned pattern to form and try to catch the opening swing that often begins before the end of the second hour.
- The most important thing on the open is to be patient and not in a rush. If one is confused and does not have a good feel for what the market is doing, it is better to step aside and wait.
- The bears formed a two-legged selloff down to yesterday’s bar, which was 45 buy signal bar high.
- The selloff down to bar 8 looks like a bear leg in what will become a trading range.
- As of bar 12, the bulls are trying to get a reversal up. They sell the selloff to bar 8 as a potential 2nd leg bear trap. Next, the Bulls want a rally up to the bar 3 high.
- The bulls need a strong bull breakout with follow-through before the market becomes high probability.

EURUSD Forex daily chart
- The bears formed another bear bar yesterday, closing near its midpoint and below the prior day’s low.
- The past three days have tails below the bar, which is a warning that the market will probably pull back soon as bears begin to take profits.
- The market is Always In Short, and at the moment, the bulls do not have a credible buy signal bar.
- The risk is getting big for the bears. This increases the odds that the market will likely pullback and get closer to the moving average over the next several bar.
