Higher High, Lower Close

Nothing too serious. It looks like the bars up from the recent low are a five-wave-sequence. It was possible to count it that way. But the retrace was quite shallow, so far.

ES Futures - Daily - Higher High & Lower Close


The measured retrace from the high is not even 23.6%. The daily slow stochastic is in over-bought territory. The monthly payroll report is tomorrow morning. It could be a market mover, so we'll just post-pone discussion until we see more in those results.

Have an excellent start to the evening,

  2. ES/SPY (CFD) from the intraday wave-counting-screen. Possibility of three-down into the 5 am hour, then three-up to a new high on the Payroll report, and possibly five-down as an expanded flat 'b' wave.

    2. ..overnight low exceeded lower; now the 'minimum' expanded flat objective has been reached, but can go farther to make a deeper 'b' wave than 23.6%. TJ.

  4. ES/SPY (CFD) 30-min: now a break of the Wednesday low, and extension of the downward correction. Maybe a double-zigzag for a 'b' wave lower; or more.

    1. ...'minimum' double zigzag target reached (parallel). Can go lower if it wants.

      Caution, there's nothing currently bullish on the intraday until/unless price gets back above the 18-per SMA, as price is also below the 18-day SMA, too.

    2. Now three consecutive closes below the lower band, dropping the odds to 3 - 6% of the next close outside of the lower band.

  6. ES/SPY (CFD) 30-min: now four consecutive closes below the lower band, dropping the odds to 2 - 5% of the next close below the band (again, not impossible, just lower odds).
