The bulls want a strong bull close in order to disappoint the bears. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The market is now back at the close of last year and will probably go sideways soon around this price level (3,895.75).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Last week\u2019s bear breakout was strong enough to increase the odds of another leg down.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The bulls want last week to be a 2<sup>nd<\/sup> leg trap and lead to a reversal. While this is possible, the bulls will likely need to develop more selling pressure first.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Traders should expect a pullback lasting a few days as bears begin to take partial profits. This means today will probably be disappointing for the bears. However, this does not mean the bulls will get a strong reversal up today.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>There are obvious breakout points above, such as the March 2<sup>nd<\/sup> low. Bulls likely bought this low, anticipating the selloff being a pullback from the March 2<sup>nd<\/sup> and March 3<sup>rd<\/sup> bull breakout.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>These bulls got trapped during the past two trading days and will likely use a test back to the March 2<sup>nd<\/sup> low to exit longs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>While the bulls can argue that this is the early stage of forming a 2<sup>nd<\/sup> leg trap, with the first leg ending on March 2<sup>nd<\/sup>, most traders will need to see more buying pressure in order to conclude this. At a minimum, the bulls will probably need a micro double bottom or two \u2013 three strong bull trend bars.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Even if the bulls can get a successful 2<sup>nd<\/sup> leg trap, there will probably be sellers around the high of March 6<sup>th<\/sup> or before it gets there. Since the bears see last week\u2019s selloff as a surprise, they will sell the pullback. This increases the risk of sideways trading for several bars.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Overall, last Thursday and Friday were strong enough breakouts to get a 2<sup>nd<\/sup> leg down, probably. This means traders will look to sell a pullback. However, the market may need to form a credible Low 2 short before the bears get their 2<sup>nd<\/sup> leg down.<\/li>\n<\/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\">\n<li>Emini is down 40 points in the overnight Globex session.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The Globex Market rallied yesterday and reversed sharply in the overnight trading hours.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The bears want another strong bear close today on the daily chart. However, today will probably be disappointing for both the bulls and the bears.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The market will likely have a gap down today. Since a gap down is the same as a bear breakout, traders should expect a 2nd leg down. Any reversal up on the open will likely fail to create a bull trend without the market at least forming a double bottom.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>As I often say, traders should expect a trading range open and consider not trading for the first 6-12 bars. This will help prevent a trader from getting trapped betting on breakouts in a limit order market.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Most traders should focus on trying to catch the opening swing trade. It is common for a swing trade to begin after the formation of a double top\/bottom or a wedge top\/bottom. This means that a trader can often wait for one of the above patterns to form and have a reasonable chance of catching the opening swing trade.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Overall, today will probably not be another bear-trend solid day. The market will probably try and get a bull close; this means that the open of the day will be an essential magnet. If the market is below the open, especially if not far from the open, traders will look for reversals up.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Emini intraday market update<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The Emini gapped down and rallied during bars 4 \u2013 8. The rally was strong enough to make the market Always In Long and increase the odds of a 2<sup>nd<\/sup> leg up.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The market went sideways for over an hour before getting a breakout and 2<sup>nd<\/sup> leg up on bar 18 (8:00 AM PT).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Because of the hour-long trading range and the continuing trading range price action on Friday\u2019s close, the market will likely continue sideways for some time.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The bulls want an upside breakout above Friday\u2019s Lower high at 12:00 PM PT.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The 60-minute moving average (RTH\/ES.D Chart) is not far above and the market may have to reach it sometime today.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>At the moment, the odds are that today will close above the open of the day. This means traders will look to buy selloffs, especially selloffs that are 2<sup>nd<\/sup> legs down or wedge bottoms. &nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The bulls are forming open gaps, which increases the risk of a bull trend day. Traders should be mindful of these gaps. Open gaps trap counter trend traders, which increases the buying pressure. <\/li>\n<\/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\/2023\/03\/SP500-Emini-5-minute-Chart-Sell-Climax-Reversal-Failed-Wedge-Top-and-Reversal-Down.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"680\" height=\"383\" src=\"https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/SP500-Emini-5-minute-Chart-Sell-Climax-Reversal-Failed-Wedge-Top-and-Reversal-Down-680x383.png\" alt=\"SP500 Emini 5-minute Chart Sell Climax Reversal Failed Wedge Top and Reversal Down\" class=\"wp-image-173416\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/SP500-Emini-5-minute-Chart-Sell-Climax-Reversal-Failed-Wedge-Top-and-Reversal-Down-680x383.png 680w, https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/SP500-Emini-5-minute-Chart-Sell-Climax-Reversal-Failed-Wedge-Top-and-Reversal-Down-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/SP500-Emini-5-minute-Chart-Sell-Climax-Reversal-Failed-Wedge-Top-and-Reversal-Down-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/SP500-Emini-5-minute-Chart-Sell-Climax-Reversal-Failed-Wedge-Top-and-Reversal-Down-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/SP500-Emini-5-minute-Chart-Sell-Climax-Reversal-Failed-Wedge-Top-and-Reversal-Down.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Al created the SP500 Emini charts.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"caption\">Here are several reasonable stop entry setups from Friday.

These therefore are swing entries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"caption\">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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"caption\">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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">EURUSD Forex market trading strategies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">EURUSD Forex daily chart<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/EURUSD-Daily-Bulls-want-Close-above-Moving-Average.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"680\" height=\"383\" src=\"https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/EURUSD-Daily-Bulls-want-Close-above-Moving-Average-680x383.jpg\" alt=\"EURUSD Daily: Bulls want Close above Moving Average\" class=\"wp-image-173559\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/EURUSD-Daily-Bulls-want-Close-above-Moving-Average-680x383.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/EURUSD-Daily-Bulls-want-Close-above-Moving-Average-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/EURUSD-Daily-Bulls-want-Close-above-Moving-Average-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/EURUSD-Daily-Bulls-want-Close-above-Moving-Average.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The EURUSD is trying to get a close above the exponential moving average (blue line) and damage the argument of a bear trend.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The market has had 24 out of 25 closes below the moving average, which is a sign of strong selling pressure.
