This increases the risk that bulls will become disappointed and that the market will need a deeper pullback after the rally from the November low.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The 7,000 round number is still a logical magnet for the market to reach, and the market may try to get there before the end of the year.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Even if the market fails to reach the 7,000 round number before the end of the year, the odds favor the market reaching the magnet over the next several weeks to months.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The Bulls still see the rally up to November 28th to be strong enough for a second leg up. Even if the market gets a deep pullback, bulls will still look for a higher low above the November 21<sup>st<\/sup> low.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Overall, the Bulls are trying to get above the all-time high and reach the 7,000 round number. The bulls are doing a good job; however, the market is approaching resistance, which increases the odds of a sideways move. Because the round number of 7,000 is important, the odds favor the market reaching it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">E-mini 5-minute chart and what to expect today<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Today gapped up on the open and rallied up to bar 9. While the breakout was strong and likely to get a second leg up, it formed a parabolic wedge top, which increased the odds of a reversal and the formation of a trading range.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The bears managed to get a strong downside breakout with bars 17 and 18, and the market sold off, testing the low of bar 3, the low of the day.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The sell-off to BAR 27 is good for the bears; however, it has a lot of overlap, and it&#8217;s parabolic. Given all the trading-range price action today, the odds are the market will find buyers around the 3-low and probably have to bounce back to the midpoint of the day&#8217;s range.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bulls who bought the nine close and scaled in lower, such as below the three lows, will probably be able to avoid a loss. Because of this, the odds are that the market will bounce.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The reversal up on bar 28 is a strong enough reversal bar that bears will probably look to exit and wait to sell after a couple of legs to see what the bulls can get.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Because today is Friday, weekly support and resistance are important. Traders should be prepared for the possibility of a surprise breakout, up or down, late in the day as the market decides the close of the weekly chart.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Because of all the trading range price action that today has had, traders should assume that the rest of the day will have a lot of trading range price action as well.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Yesterday&#8217;s E-mini setups<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/SP500-E-mini-5-Min-Small-Gap-Up-Sell-Climax-Then-Trading-Range-Day.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"680\" height=\"383\" src=\"https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/SP500-E-mini-5-Min-Small-Gap-Up-Sell-Climax-Then-Trading-Range-Day-680x383.jpg\" alt=\"SP500 E-mini 5-Min Small Gap Up Sell Climax Then Trading Range Day\" class=\"wp-image-256817\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/SP500-E-mini-5-Min-Small-Gap-Up-Sell-Climax-Then-Trading-Range-Day-680x383.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/SP500-E-mini-5-Min-Small-Gap-Up-Sell-Climax-Then-Trading-Range-Day-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/SP500-E-mini-5-Min-Small-Gap-Up-Sell-Climax-Then-Trading-Range-Day-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/SP500-E-mini-5-Min-Small-Gap-Up-Sell-Climax-Then-Trading-Range-Day.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Richard created the SP500 E-mini chart.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"caption\">Here are reasonable stop entry setups from yesterday.
