The Anatomy of a Reversal & Today's Closing Sentiment

Recommended Posts

At almost exactly 4 hours into today's session and after a significan move straight up the market reversed itself.

 

The first chart below is a daily chart with the nite session's trade in read overlaid by the day session in blue. Followers of price action can see that from the high price came almost all the way back to the open near the low - a key reversal.

 

At 1031 PST, at the high, the second chart down, in the middle sub-graph shows a buying exhaustion threshold and that the indicator passed the threshold and indicated an exhaustion in the buying. The bottome sub-graph shows our calculation of net new commercial trade and you can see that during the last 2 hours of the session NNT went from a positive 64,000 contracts to a negative number.

 

In the third chart down and also at exactly 1031 PST you can see a spike in the intensity of commercial selling which compliments the indication of a top as indicated by the exhaustion described above.

 

The fourth chart down shows the closing sentiment of the market on the HUD

Soooo... of what use is all that?

 

It demonstrates different methods for determining the formation of local and/or session extremes from the presence of buying or selling exhaustion and inntense opposing commercial activity.

 

The HUD displays the degree to which the commercial spec traders are present in the market and their degree and direction of bias. This is time of day normalized data.

 

The HUD also reflects the amount in contracts and the percentage of buying and selling within the most recent blocks of trade.

 

Also present are 2 pie charts reflecting the percentage of buy bias, sell bias and caution bias in the ES and the ES & NQ combined.

 

Precise Buy, Sell, Scalp and Stop or No Trade prices are given for 7 intra-session time/volume frames.

 

All of this information including prices is updated on a tick by tick basis.

 

For price action only traders it is not worth much at all. For those who trade from order flow or the balance of trade this information might be of value.

 

cheers

Aaaah... I was trying to elicit an answer from you such as.. "I will be shorting all day today"!!.. but you gave the answer one that has been in the market would/should know.. All analysis is merely "helpful" and nothing else... Sorry... battle scarred lately.. in a battle with myself.

 

Interesting though.. so much data out there. Ultmately you place a trade and get kicked out and money flows out of or into your account.

The HUD was designed to support trade in time frames much shorter than "I will be shorting all day" and includes very specific entry, scalp and stop prices for each of 7 intra session time frames - the longest of which is roughly equivalent to 5 minute bars.

"For price action only traders it is not worth much at all." - UB

 

I think this says it all. If you are a price action trader then UB does something different.

Soooo... I took your research to heart and shorted the open... You owe me.. <gggg>... More than most of my account, these indexes have relieved me of any belief in anything.. Any amount of data can simply be ignored the next day.. like Today.. There are people that move these markets and their lives are quite easy in the slow Summer trading.. Me thinks they intentionally create bottoming or topping candles JUST to negate them the next day. The scalper is king!

 

That'll be $13,599...

You took a view from yesterday that was posted at a delay and only for the next 5 minutes at the most and traded it a day later?

    • Dear B4 #42, I heard you can't get out of bed and decided you were going celibate and shaved your head and “reconsidered” having children.  If it took Trump getting elected to get you to stop fkn every Dum, Harry, and Dick you meet, we’ll take it.  thx Sincerely just sayin’ zdo PS To all the other girls I loved B4 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVq0ONrSH-Q 😚

    • Date: 12th November 2024. Market Buzz: Trump Trade Impact! “Trump trade” has boosted the US Dollar and US stocks, but Trump’s policies may have less favorable effects on global assets. Trump’s plan to raise tariffs is expected to negatively impact economies worldwide, especially exporters like China. Asia & European Sessions:   Bitcoin Surge! Bitcoin broke $90K, driven by Trump trade once again. Bitcoin is up roughly 110% in 2024, helped by robust demand for dedicated US ETFs, interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve and Trump’s cryptofriendly agenda. Crypto market capitalization has exceeded its pandemic-era peak, reaching $3.1 trillion. Traders are betting on Bitcoin reaching $100,000 by year-end, according to data from the Deribit exchange. Open interest — or outstanding contracts — for CME Group Inc. futures for Bitcoin and second-ranked Ether (ETHUSD) scaled records on Monday, a sign of growing engagement by US institutional investors. Asian shares dropped, alongside European and US equity futures, as traders evaluated the implications of President-elect Donald Trump’s policy agenda and potential cabinet choices. The MSCI Asia Pacific Index fell for a third consecutive day, driven by rising Treasury yields amid concerns that Trump’s proposed tax cuts could increase inflation. There are also reports that Trump is considering two individuals for prominent roles in his administration with track records of criticizing China. DAX and FTSE100 are down -1.1% and -0.5% respectively, after a pickup in German HICP inflation and higher than expected UK wage growth dampened easing expectations. Investors await the US CPI report for insights into the Fed’s easing path, as Trump’s inflationary policies may lead to fewer rate cuts. Financial Markets Performance:   The USDIndex continues to rise and is currently at 105.75. It hit a 1-year high. EURUSD drifts to 1.0620 and GBPUSD is in a sell off, currently at 1.2800. Oil prices fell after their biggest 2-week decline, amid a weak demand outlook from China, a stronger US Dollar, and concerns over a potential oversupply. Crude oil has traded within a narrow range since mid-last month, influenced by Middle East tensions, the US election, and OPEC+ output decisions. Gold remains under pressure and is currently at just $2604.36 per ounce. It hit a one-month low, down 5% since Trump’s election victory, as a strong dollar and US equity rotation pressured the metal. Gold’s decline was also technical, breaking below the 50-day moving average, causing funds to cover long positions. Despite recent drops, gold remains up 25% for the year, supported by central bank purchases and geopolitical risks. Always trade with strict risk management.
