He used the 200 day moving average as his measure of how <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/market-analysis\/emini-weekend-update-april-3-2015-monthly-sell-signal-bar\/\" target=\"_blank\">extremely overbought the Emini is<\/a>. He also used the 1987 crash as an example of a time when the market was above the moving average for a comparably long time. He correctly did not say that the current market is in any other way like that crash, but he did say that he expects a 10% correction. <\/p>\n<p>Since the Emini has an 80% chance of getting back to the moving average this year and it is more than 10% below today&#8217;s close, I think that 10% is the minimum objective and that it might also test below the October low.<\/p>\n<h2>Weekly S&#038;P500 Emini futures candlestick chart: Breakout mode<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/0-esw.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/0-esw-600x279.png\" alt=\"S&amp;P Emini futures market analysis weekly report for May 8, 2015 for the weekly chart has a tight range for day traders trading the price action\" width=\"600\" height=\"279\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-38852\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/0-esw-600x279.png 600w, https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/0-esw-300x140.png 300w, https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/0-esw.png 1324w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"caption\">The weekly S&#038;P500 Emini futures candlestick chart closed the week with a doji candlestick pattern within a 3 month tight trading range. <\/p>\n<p>The weekly S&#038;P500 Emini futures candlestick chart continues in its 13 week tight trading range.

Bears are shorting this rally with a tight stop above the all-time high, betting that the Emini will begin to form a series of lower highs and then have s strong bear breakout. Whenever a stop is tight, the probability of success has to be low because there has to be a reason for an institution to take the other side of the trade. If the bears get great risk:reward, the bulls get higher <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/how-to-trade-manual\/traders-equation\/#probability\" target=\"_blank\">probability<\/a>. The candlestick pattern is an ascending triangle, and the probability is that it will have a bull breakout. However, a triangle forming late in a bull trend usually becomes the final bull flag before a correction.<\/p>\n<h2>Best Forex trading strategies<\/h2>\n<p>The dollar is oversold on the daily chart and has formed a wedge bull flag over the past month. For those trading Forex for a living, look for a bounce in the dollar over the next couple of weeks. The dollar rally was so climactic that this trend resumption, should it occur, will probably be within a developing trading range on the daily chart. This means that sideways for at least another month is likely.<\/p>\n<p>The EURUSD rally has been strong on the daily chart, but the EURUSD began to turn down yesterday after a new high in a month long bull micro channel. Traders learning how to trade Forex markets should expect t trading range or pullback lasting at least a week. The rally was strong enough so that Forex price action traders expect that any selloff will form a higher low, and then a 2nd leg up. Less likely, this rally is forming a double top with the February high, and the selloff will fall below the neckline (March low) for a measured move down.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p class=\"caption\">Traders can see the end of the day <a href=\"http:\/\/www.brookspriceaction.com\/profile.php?mode=profil&#038;sub=profile_prefer&#038;mod=0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">bar-by-bar price action report by signing up<\/a> for free at BrooksPriceAction.com.
