the rally seemed to be backed by the market internals, at least up until I stopped watching them. I can't wait for Monday. Really, I was expecting to go bearsih with the jobs numbers, but I guess slightly worse than expected numbers were already priced in.

 

Something interesting I've noticed from jobs numbers reports, is that you tend to get a fast shot in price in the opposite direction from where price will close. When we quickly dropped six points on the ES at 8.30 I was thinking we might finish up.

Well, I like to make little videos, that way I can go back and hear myself later and think, what was I thinking then. I've found it very useful to my learning.

 

Here's my brief analysis of the ES, SPY, and why I decided to sit on my hands today on the Thai market. Tuesday seems like a good candidate for a down day. We've an evening star pattern right on prior resistance with declining volume, and we're hitting the 50% retracement zone.

 

Here's my video:

And last night we had a big hammer with the VIX continuing to bleed. Starting to look more and more bullish. The support is holding. I often find that after a fake out break out like we had last night that markets tend to break out for real in the other direction, or they stop halfway to their mark, turn back around again, and take out the same direction. We'll see.

I'm still bearish even with the candle on the SPX. Intraday on a thirty minute we had range extension to the down side, and failed range extension to the upside, plus a selling extreme. We also closed beneath the 775 support area and weren't able to challenge the low value area for the day. The TRIN spent most the day above 1, the down value was about three time that of the up volume, and BANK never filled its gap. Hard to find too much bullish there.

I'm sea sick.

 

 

 

Don't want to buy the low value area with internals being bearish, and don't want to sell at the low value area and so close to major support. Sitting around bored.

 

 

I could imagine a bounce up to the fifty fib from the last sell off.

I don't have my charts up but I would expect 700 to be some big resistance. Also I believe 740 was the fifty percent retracement from the last sell off, but again, I don't have my charts open. Personally, I'll look to short the ES at 699.25. I'll get a little sggressive.

Awesome bounce! Backed by market internals as well, I imagine they'll be some follow through. I'm closely watching 740 on the ES. If market internals turn bearish near there, I'll be looking for shorts.

    • Date: 26th November 2024. Trump’s tariff threats boosted Dollar; Peso, Loonie, Gold & Oil Lower. The Trump trade picked up steam as investors cheered his pick for Treasury Secretary, Scott Bessent. Beliefs he will be a steadying voice in the administration’s fiscal measures, while still following President-elect Trump’s tariff and tax commitments, underpinned. Asia & European Sessions:   Trump threatened on Monday to impose sweeping new tariffs on China, Canada and Mexico on his first day as US President to crack down on illegal immigration and drugs. He would impose a 25% tax on all products entering the country from Canada and Mexico, and an additional 10% tariff on goods from China as one of his first acts as president of the US. Bessent’s 3-3-3 plan aims to cut the deficit to 3% of GDP, boost growth to 3%, and increase oil production to 3 mln barrels. Treasury yields dove in a curve flattener, extending their drops through the session, on expectations inflation will decelerate. A strong 2-year auction also supported. The Dow led the charge, climbing 0.99% to 44,736, a new record peak as the rally broadens. The S&P500 climbed to 6020, a session peak, but finished with a 0.3% gain to 5987. The NASDAQ closed 0.27% higher. Today, stock markets in Europe are posting broad losses, with the DAX down -0.6%, the FTSE 100 0.4%, after a largely weaker close across Asia. ECB: Lane suggests ECB must be open-minded on speed of rate cuts. The ECB’s Chief Economist said in a speech on Monday evening that “remaining open-minded about the speed and scale of adjustments is in fact a valuable strategy across various environments, as different situations may necessitate distinct approaches.” This careful, step-by-step strategy enables us to observe the responses of the economy to our decisions and continuously refine our understanding of their impacts.” The comments leave the door open to a 50 bp move in December, but also tie in with our expectation that the central bank will deliver a 25 bp while tweaking the forward guidance and commit to additional moves. Financial Markets Performance: The USDIndex hit a session high of 107.50 and is currently lower at 106.85. Mexican peso and Canadian dollar slumped as the dollar is being viewed as a haven after the comments of President-elect Donald Trump on tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China. USDCAD spiked to 1.4177 and USDMXN rallied to 20.74. Oil and Gold lost ground, in part on cooling geopolitical risks, and on Trump trades. Oil dropped -3.03% to $69.09 per barrel, in part on the Trump trade and on talk of a potential cease fire between Israel and Hezbollah. Similarly, gold fell -3.26% to $2605 per ounce.
