The bulls are hopeful that this rally will lead to two legs up at a minimum.<\/li><li>As Al said last week, two important things are currently not known.<\/li><li>First is, will last week be the final low in the two-month correction, or will there be a bounce followed by a second leg down.<\/li><li>The second is once the selloff ends, will the bull trend resume, or will the Emini go sideways for several months or possibly a year.<\/li><li>Since the market is still in a trading range, it is still very possible the market has to fall below last week&#8217;s low and test the 4,000 big round number, which would also be very close to a 20% correction of 3,846 (based on the March contract).<\/li><li>As Al said last week, there is only a 30% chance of this selloff continuing down and testing the pre-pandemic high back from February 2020, which would be around a 30% correction.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Emini 5-minute chart and what to expect today<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Emini is down 50 points in the overnight Globex session.<\/li><li>The market had a large 80 point gap down on the Globex open yesterday evening and formed a double bottom.<\/li><li>Since last night, the market has been in a bull trend; however, the rally has started to develop selling pressure on the 5-minute chart.<\/li><li>Since the day session will likely gap down around 50 points from Friday&#8217;s close, traders should expect a trading range open.<\/li><li>In a new bull trend, the bulls will see this gap down as a higher low. They will want a series of higher lows and higher highs, confirming the bull trend.<\/li><li>The bears will see this gap down as a reversal attempt. The bears hope that it will be followed by at least a trading range and a series of lower highs and lower lows (bear trend) that will take the market below last week&#8217;s low.<\/li><li>Overall, traders should expect a trading range open and wait for a credible stop entry or a strong breakout with follow-through.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Friday&#8217;s Emini setups<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Emini-bull-trend-from-the-open-then-trading-range-and-20-gap-bar-buy-signal.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"680\" height=\"383\" src=\"https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Emini-bull-trend-from-the-open-then-trading-range-and-20-gap-bar-buy-signal-680x383.png\" alt=\"Emini bull trend from the open then trading range and 20-gap bar buy signal.
