The bulls keep the market above the moving average, which is a sign of strength for the bulls and increases the probability of an upside breakout.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The bulls want a breakout above the triangle and a test of the August 26<sup>th<\/sup> high, which was the start of a bear channel.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>With the market having four consecutive bull bars, the odds slightly favor the upside breakout. However, it is important to remember that if the bulls had a high probability, the market would be racing up to resistance (August 26<sup>th<\/sup> high) and not stalling in a tight trading range.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>This means that the bears must have a credible argument, or the market would not go sideways.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The bears want any upside breakout of the current triangle to fail and reverse down. Next, they want a selloff down to 4,000 and the January 30<sup>th<\/sup> low, bottom of the third leg in a wedge top.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Traders that want high probability should wait for a credible breakout up or down of the triangle. Until there is a clear breakout, traders should assume that the probability is close to 50% for both the bulls and the bears.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Overall, the market is in a triangle, which is a breakout mode pattern. Traders should assume that the probability is close to neutral.<\/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 50 points in the overnight Globex session.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The Emini sold off in a tight bear channel for most of the overnight Globex session.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The bulls want the tight bear channel to be a bull flag and lead to an upside breakout, and the bears want to get a downside breakout of the bear flag.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>As always, traders should assume the U.S. session will have a lot of trading range trading and go mostly sideways for the first 6-12 bars.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Traders should consider not trading the first 6-12 bars unless they are comfortable with limit order trading.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Most traders should try and catch a swing trade on the open. It is common for one to form before the end of the second hour after forming a double top\/bottom or a wedge top\/bottom.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The most crucial thing to remember on the open is patience. There is plenty of time in the day to find a few good trades, even if one does not trade the first 6 bars of the day.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If a trader waits for 12 bars before trading, they will have more information and therefore have a higher probability of either the high or the low being set, compared to trading the first 1-3 bars of the day.<\/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 went sideways for the first 6 bars of the day.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The market stalled just under yesterday\u2019s low; however, with the first 2 bars of the day being bull bars, the odds favored a second leg and a close above yesterday\u2019s low.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The bulls formed a double bottom on bar 6, and the market has been in a buy-the-close rally since Bar 12 (7:30 AM PT).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>While the buy-the-close rally is good for the bulls, it has many overlapping bars, increasing the odds of the market going sideways at the moving average.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The gap down was large, and the odds favor an attempt at a second leg. This increases the odds of the market finding resistance soon. The bulls have an argument for a bull trend from the open, even though the first 6 bars went sideways.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It is unlikely this bull trend from bar 6 will last all day.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A large gap down is a sign of strength and a bear breakout. This means that it is possible the rally to bar 12 will make the market a trading range, and the bears will get a deep pullback back to the opening range of the past 6 bars.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The rally to bar 12 is strong enough for a second leg up, so the bulls will look to buy any pullback. Traders should expect sideways soon.<\/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\/02\/SP500-Emini-5-minute-Wedge-Bottom-Then-Broad-Bull-Channel.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"680\" height=\"383\" src=\"https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/SP500-Emini-5-minute-Wedge-Bottom-Then-Broad-Bull-Channel-680x383.png\" alt=\"SP500 Emini 5-minute Wedge Bottom Then Broad Bull Channel - forming triangle above moving average\" class=\"wp-image-170672\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/SP500-Emini-5-minute-Wedge-Bottom-Then-Broad-Bull-Channel-680x383.png 680w, https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/SP500-Emini-5-minute-Wedge-Bottom-Then-Broad-Bull-Channel-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/SP500-Emini-5-minute-Wedge-Bottom-Then-Broad-Bull-Channel-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/SP500-Emini-5-minute-Wedge-Bottom-Then-Broad-Bull-Channel-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/SP500-Emini-5-minute-Wedge-Bottom-Then-Broad-Bull-Channel.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em><em><em><em>Tim created the SP500 Emini chart from Al&#8217;s provided summar<\/em><\/em><\/em>y &amp; setups<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"caption\">Here are several reasonable stop entry setups from yesterday.
