S&P Emini market analysis

Emini daily chart

  • The Emini is forming a tight trading range on the daily chart that has gone on for six trading days. This is a breakout mode pattern on the daily chart.
  • The bulls are hopeful that the tight trading range is a pullback in the bull trend that will lead to an upside breakout.
  • The bears want the tight trading range to become a final flag leading to a reversal.
  • The Bears have done a good job making the market go sideways over the past two weeks, adding to the selling pressure. Next, the bears need to start getting bear closes below the moving average.
  • Because the market is in a bull trend on the daily chart, there is an increased risk that the bulls will get a breakout above the December 6th high. The bears need to limit the breakout’s strength if they will get a reversal down.

Emini 5-minute chart and what to expect today

  • The Emini gapped up on the open and formed a second leg up to bar 6.
  • The bulls are hopeful that the current bull trend from the open will lead to a trend lasting all day.
  •  However, the bar 7 rally is at last Friday’s high, which is resistance. This increases the risk of the market going sideways around that High.
  • The Bear formed an opening reversal with bar 8 and has now formed a 3-bar bear micro channel down to bar 10.
  • This increases the odds of a second leg down and a possible measured move down based on the opening range.
  • The bulls formed a reversal up with bar 11. This led to an upside breakout on bar 12. While the reversal up on bar 12 is strong, it is following 3 consecutive bear bars in a bear microchannel. This increases the odds of sellers above the bar 8 high.

Friday’s Emini setups

SP500 Emini 5-Min Chart Bear Trend From Open Then a Trading Range

Al created the SP500 Emini charts.

Here are reasonable stop entry setups from Friday. I show each buy entry bar with a green arrow and each sell entry bar with a red arrow. Buyers of both the Brooks Trading Course and Encyclopedia of Chart Patterns have access to a near 4-year library of more detailed explanations of swing trade setups (see Online Course/BTC Daily Setups). Encyclopedia members get current daily charts added to Encyclopedia.

My goal with these charts is to present an Always In perspective. If a trader was trying to be Always In or nearly Always In a position all day, and he was not currently in the market, these entries would be logical times for him to enter. These therefore are swing entries.

It is important to understand that most swing setups do not lead to swing trades. As soon as traders are disappointed, many exit. Those who exit prefer to get out with a small profit (scalp), but often have to exit with a small loss.

If the risk is too big for your account, you should wait for trades with less risk or trade an alternative market like the Micro Emini.
