Emini and Forex Trading Update:
Monday April 15, 2019<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I will update again at the end of the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pre-Open market analysis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Emini gapped above the 2900 resistance level on Friday. However, Friday closed near its open and formed a doji bar. That hesitation increases the chance of a failed breakout. The bears prefer a bear body for a sell signal bar. They therefore want today to close near its low.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If today or any day this week gaps down, Friday’s gap up will have created an island top. Island tops and bottoms are typically minor reversals. However, the Emini is at resistance and in a buy climax on the daily and weekly charts. That increases the chance of a reversal down. But, without the bears creating several bear bars closing below their midpoints, the odds favor a test of the all-time high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When there is a gap above resistance, the Emini often goes sideways for a few days. At that point, it decides whether to resume up or reverse down. With Friday being a doji bar, there is a 50% chance of mostly sideways trading again today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buy climax on 60 minute chart<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The 60 minute chart has rallied in a tight bull channel for 3 weeks. That is unusually long and therefore a buy climax. Consequently, the bull channel will likely evolve into a trading range this week. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is typically a pullback that is about twice as big as the biggest pullback in the tight bull channel. Therefore, there will probably be a 50 point selloff at some point this week. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It could begin any day. The Emini might have to form a micro double top on the 60 minute chart first. If so, there would have to be at least one sideways day to create that top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overnight Emini Globex trading <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Emini is unchanged in the Globex session. Today is important because the bulls need to hold above 2900 to increase the chance of a new high within a month. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, this week is important because the bulls want follow-through buying on the weekly chart. If instead this week has a bear body on the weekly chart, it will increase the chance of a pullback next week. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If this week has a big bear body and it closes on its low, the weekly chart will have a small wedge top. That would increase the chance of at least 2 – 3 weeks of pulling back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because there is a buy climax on the 60 minute chart, day traders will look for a top on the 5 and 60 minute charts this week. They expect a 50 point selloff this week or next week. That would probably require 2 – 3 days down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, there have been many selloffs on the 5 minute chart over the past 3 weeks. Every one reversed up and led to a new high. If a 50 point sell is to start this week, it will probably begin with an unusually strong bear breakout on the 5 minute chart. That can be an extremely big bear bar or 2 – 3 very big bear bars. If traders see a strong bear breakout, they will be more eager to sell small rallies, expecting at least 2 – 3 days of lower prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Friday’s setups<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Emini<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Here are several reasonable stop entry setups from Friday. I show each buy entry with a green rectangle and each sell entry with a red rectangle. I rarely also show limit order entries and entries on the close of bars. 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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EURUSD Forex market trading strategies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"EURUSD<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The EURUSD daily Forex chart broke above a bear flag on Friday. Today is important because the bulls need follow-through. If today is a bull bar, it will increase the probability of at least a small 2nd leg up. If it is a big bull bar closing on its high, the rally will probably continue to the top of the 5 month range. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The day is small so far after both the Asian and European sessions. It will therefore probably not get much bigger. That makes strong follow-through buying unlikely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bears always want the opposite. At a minimum, they want today to have a bear body. That would reduce to probability of significantly higher prices. Instead, it will make some sideways days likely. If today closes on its low, tomorrow will probably trade below today’s low. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If today has a relatively big bear body and closes on its low, Friday’s breakout will likely fail. Traders would then look for several days down this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overnight EURUSD Forex trading<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The EURUSD 5 minute Forex chart has been in a 20 pip range overnight. That is so small that it is even difficult for day traders to make a 10 pip scalp. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key price today is the 1.1306 open. Whenever today is above that price, the bears will sell reversals down. This is because they want a bear body on the daily chart. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But, whenever the EURUSD Forex market is below today’s open, the bulls will buy it. This is because a bull bar on the daily chart today increases the chance of higher prices this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While there always can be a big breakout up or down at any time, that is unlikely today. The range has been small all day and the chart is back in the middle of its 5 month range. That is a neutral zone and it reduces the incentive for traders to move it violently higher or lower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Summary of today’s S&P Emini futures price action and what to expect tomorrow<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Emini<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Here are several reasonable stop entry setups for today. I show each buy entry with a green rectangle and each sell entry with a red rectangle. I rarely also show limit order entries and entries on the close of bars. 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.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

End of day summary<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Emini sold off early and reversed up. It has done that many times over the past 3 weeks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 60 minute chart is in a Small Pullback Bull Trend. Since that is a buy climax, it will probably transition into a trading range this week. Traders will look for a pullback that is about twice as big as the pullbacks in the bull channel. Therefore, they will look for about 50 points down from the high.

Friday’s gap might be a measuring gap on the 60 minute chart. Therefore, the Emini might have to rally to around 2920 before beginning a 50 point selloff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
