Sort-of as promised, the algo's are having their way with this wave as U.S. equity prices, as measured by the daily ES E-mini futures failed to make a new high today and, in fact, headed back to the 18-day SMA, often the neutral point on the chart, to figure out what to do next. The daily chart is below. Note that intraday, the highs of each of the possible upward first waves were overlapped downward today. Also observe the daily slow stochastic is only in over-bought territory and is not embedded.
The new blue trend lines are tentative only and I think they will be adjusted later. There 'might' be a triangle in the making but with lower odds. Why? See the chart below which is the 4-hr chart.
Notice that twice in the last two days, price bumped up against the 90% level. And, while possible, it is not common for triangles to do. So, a triangle bucks the odds a bit even though the trading is whippy as all get-out.
Rather the better odds at the moment are for a Flat wave if prices keep heading lower. For now let's see what prices do at the 18-day SMA. If they close below it again, it would likely tilt the daily bias to down. Then we'll go from there.
Have an excellent start to the evening,
