Bulls need follow-through buying.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The bears have the argument of a wedge top and want the bad follow-through to continue today.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The odds favor a second leg up after last Friday. However, the risk of a wedge bottom is real. This means the bears have a credible chance of forming another bear bar today.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If the bears can get 2-3 bear bars closing on their lows, traders will begin to conclude that the market is forming a wedge top.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The bulls need to get follow-through buying today and trap the bears who are selling.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>There are trapped bears who sold on May 25<sup>th,<\/sup> betting on a second leg down after the May 24<sup>th<\/sup> selloff. These bears are disappointed and will likely be interested in exiting the trade break-even. However, if the bears can develop more selling pressure, those trapped bears may consider staying short and betting on a wedge top.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Overall, traders will pay close attention to the next few days to see how determined the bulls are to get a second leg up.<\/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 21 points in the overnight Globex session.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The Globex Market has gone sideways during the overnight Globex session.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Traders should be open to anything today for the reasons stated above. The bulls want follow-through buying, and the bears want another bear trend bar to disappoint the bulls on the daily chart.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Traders should assume the day will have a lot of trading range price action until proven otherwise.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>As I often say, most traders should assume the day will have a lot of trading range price action over the first hour. This means that most traders should consider not trading during the first hour of the day.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Most traders should wait for the opening swing trade to develop and look for a credible stop entry. It is common for the opening swing to form after a credible double top\/bottom or wedge top\/bottom before the end of the second hour.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Today is the final trading day of the month. This means that traders should be mindful of a surprise breakout in the afternoon as traders decide on the closing price of the monthly chart.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lastly, traders should pay close attention to the open of the day as that will likely be an important price level, especially if the day has a lot of trading range price action.<\/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 sold off from a bear trend from the open for the first 12 bars.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>While the bear selloff from bars 4-13 was strong, there was a 60% chance the market would evolve into a trading range.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>As of bar 45, the market has been going sideways for the past 3 hours and is deciding on trend resumption or trend reversal.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>While the odds slightly favor the bears getting trend resumption, the probability is close to 50% for both the bulls and the bears.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Traders should be prepared for a breakout up or down, which may happen late in the day.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>With the rally on the first 4 bars of the day, traders should be prepared for a possible breakout back to the day&#8217;s open. &nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Yesterday&#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\/05\/SP500-Emini-5-Min-Baer-Channel-with-Late-Reversal-Up.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"680\" height=\"383\" src=\"https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/SP500-Emini-5-Min-Baer-Channel-with-Late-Reversal-Up-680x383.png\" alt=\"SP500 Emini 5-Min Baer Channel with Late Reversal Up.

Encyclopedia members get current daily charts added to Encyclopedia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"caption\">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.<\/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\/05\/EURUSD-Daily-Sideways-to-up-Likely.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"680\" height=\"383\" src=\"https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/EURUSD-Daily-Sideways-to-up-Likely-680x383.jpg\" alt=\"EURUSD Daily Chart Sideways to Up LIkely\" class=\"wp-image-179644\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/EURUSD-Daily-Sideways-to-up-Likely-680x383.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/EURUSD-Daily-Sideways-to-up-Likely-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/EURUSD-Daily-Sideways-to-up-Likely-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/EURUSD-Daily-Sideways-to-up-Likely.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The EURUSD has been in a tight bear channel for the past month.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The market is getting close to support, which increases the odds of a bounce and a couple of legs sideways to up.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bears got trapped selling around the March 17<sup>th<\/sup> high, and the market is currently testing that same price level.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Traders will wonder if the market will rally from this same price level as it did around March 17<sup>th<\/sup>.

The bears will be cautious about selling at the same price level (March 17<sup>th<\/sup>).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The bulls hope that the market is forming a parabolic wedge bottom. However, most parabolic wedges are minor reversals. This means that the best the bulls can hope for is sideways to up.&nbsp; It\u2019s possible that the market will get a strong reversal up. However, it is not likely.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The bulls need a decent trendline break of the tight bear channel and a retest of the May low. That would create a more credible bottom.
