S&P Emini market analysis

Emini daily chart

  • The Emini is beginning to go sideways in a tight trading range over the past two days. Yesterday formed a weak Low 1 signal bar for the bears. Because the bar is weak, buyers are probably below, and the market will likely bounce today or tomorrow.
  • Since yesterday was a bad stop-entry sale, there is an increased risk that yesterday’s Low 1 will not trigger. This means buyers are probably above yesterday’s low, front-running the entry.
  • The daily chart is getting climactic, which increases the odds of a pullback and a test closer to the moving average.
  • The channel down is tight, increasing the odds that the bulls will have to make the market go sideways first before getting a pullback.
  • Overall, the market is down 10%, and the risk for bears is getting high. This increases the odds that the Emini will bounce for several legs.

Emini 5-minute chart and what to expect today

  • Today’s open sold off forming a downside breakout down to bar 6. While this is good for the bears, the odds are that there would be buyers not far below, and the market would reverse up. This is because of what I mentioned on the daily chart.
  • The reversal up to bar 12 was good for the bulls; however, the bars were small, and there was an increased risk of a deep pullback due to the opening selloff.
  • The bulls are hopeful that bar 14 will lead to a two-legged pullback following the rally to bar 11, and the bulls will get a 2nd leg up
  • Today, we will probably try to close above the opening of the day and form a bull bar. This means the odds are against today, creating a strong bear trend day, closing below yesterday’s low.
  • The bulls need to form a credible higher low major trend reversal. This would increase the odds of the Bulls getting a rally later today.

Yesterday’s Emini setups

Al created the SP500 Emini charts.

Here are reasonable stop entry setups from yesterday. I show each buy entry bar with a green arrow and each sell entry bar with a red arrow. Buyers of both the Brooks Trading Course and Encyclopedia of Chart Patterns have access to a near 4-year library of more detailed explanations of swing trade setups (see Online Course/BTC Daily Setups). Encyclopedia members get current daily charts added to Encyclopedia.

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.

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.

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.

EURUSD Forex market analysis

EURUSD Forex daily chart

  • The EURUSD formed a strong bull breakout over the past several days. While the bulls have done a great job, the risk is getting big, and the stop is far away. This increases the odds of a pullback and bulls looking to buy below bull bars rather than above bars.
  • The bears are hopeful that they will be able to form an endless pullback; however, this is not likely. The odds are that buyers will be below, and the daily chart will get a second leg up.
  • The bears must form more than two consecutive bear bars closing below their midpoints to undo the recent upside breakout.
  • Because the rally is climactic and the daily chart is in a trading range, the riks of the bulls are getting a deeper pullback than what seems likely.
