Through the prior close…
Wednesday morning’s drop to 2375.50 only briefly probed under the recent range’s 2378.50 “lower prior highs.” The dip met both the morning’s 2378.00 bias-down target and Monday’s “unfinished business below” at 2377.25. Bouncing greeted the afternoon’s FOMC policy statement at 2381.00. Simultaneously oversold RSIs at the low didn’t prevent a knee-jerk reaction up, but only briefly and relatively shallowly to  2384.00. Simultaneously oversold RSIs at the low also didn’t prevent twice probing higher highs up to 2386.00, both times reacting back down under 2384.00.

Overnight action’s new info…
Blipping-down only momentarily at the Globex open was soon recovered to retest Wednesday’s late 2386.00 high. Ranging there narrowly into and out of Europe’s opens has now broken higher to attack 2391.00, reportedly in anticipation of repealing Obamacare today.

If, then…
Is the overnight rally’s catalyst the anticipation for repealing Obamacare today. This was reported already yesterday afternoon, so it’s as much responsible for inhibiting a retest of the morning’s low. There were two paths to recovery Wednesday afternoon. One would have trended up to close above 2388.00. The other path higher would have first retested the morning’s low. In their absence, gapping up above 2388.00 Thursday would still be credible for extending higher, if not also above Monday’s 2390.75 high. Overnight action is trying, and could be well-rewarded by resuming the rally to new highs. Alternatively, not maintaining a probe above 2388.00-2390.75 would be vulnerable to launching a retest of oversold RSIs at Wednesday’s low.

First Trade…
[Click here to view the Bias parameters] Exiting the open at 9:45 above 2391.00 would be likely to trigger the 2388.00 bias-up signal at 10:15. Exiting the open under 2384.00 would be unlikely to trigger bias-up.

Again, not reviewed or edited in any way, which can be equally confusing and humorous.] hey good morning and welcome it is Thursday it’s time for Thursday’s morning market tour okay we’ve got to really easy setup here this morning either Extenze higher or collapses collapses at least back to fill in a gap to yesterday’s clothes but really if that ladies going to play out if we’re going to take a 23 essentially 2391 is centrally opening test or at least overnight test on his priority and not extend it from this base oversold are a size that the low yesterday closed in negative territory after neutralizing its attraction back to Tuesdays close if overnight rallying the list seems somewhat Relentless rally we did show up here but didn’t pull back or shallow correction or a time-based correction if all of that isn’t going to be met by new sponsorship at the open to push price spot price Drive price higher above this prior I then not only do we face we testing yesterday afternoon’s lower prior house which is 2384 2384 being the initial reaction up on the fomc statement that was probed retraced probed again retraced Natalie feeling Natalie testing the lower prayer has filling the Gap back yesterday’s clothes that essentially being the cash Station close 8350 actually even lower 83 basically futures but also all of that reaction down vulnerable to if not likely to extend all the way back yesterday was which was the risk yesterday afternoon we’re over sold all right size require retest there is only yesterday afternoon and this is basically the first thing out of your presents support when tested here’s an instance that similar to what I’m about to describe there’s a pro buyer back down to lower price in the immediate next time in window no other complexity above to develop to attract price higher and what happens after those little prize or influential that give away so somewhat similarly hear you have 2391 attack or tests and other case 2388 being the bias of signal that extended higher do the open attraction back down there has likely to produce some of it but more likely just a delay before collapsing back down where any other lower price of already been used their support meeting with prior Lowe’s yesterday afternoon not likely to do anything more if at all produce a obligatory bounce temporary before extending down to retest yes a slow the bottom oversold are a size optimistically short of 7574 and 7115 potential it’s not likely Hood get out of here the upside and by the way the overnight again they’re only ranging fluctuating through into and out of Europe’s opens basically flip side of that actually it’s being attempted lowering buyers at the moment is already growling up to attack 9075 break that basically that downtrend from last week so I not just the distance but it’s last touch look at the anchor in the connector the connector here at 2390 75 or cover that the relevant window by proxy the high of the entire sequence with being play break that and the entire rally already underway which already requires a resolution from whatever level back up to more chance I could get under way again the one more time hold that 2391 attack or test the likelihood is at least to fill the Gap at yesterday’s clothes and probably also to probe yesterday’s aloe and then find a better bottom and then find the bottom find the buyers the sponsorship that has been lacking since last week’s opening search basically put them on pause if that’s alright 2328 2391 to the open all day otherwise I think the market is not offensive Euro still but that’s not finally probably did not close lower or Pro blower inter day yesterday opening potential for a fresh load today that also doesn’t close negative that also closes at least above yesterday’s range not just above Tuesday’s Lowe’s or I’ll try within range of it to actually there’s a possibility so long as 1236 the most bullish that’s not to say about him is forming that’s at the say a recovery is close at hand just not abortion area silver which kind of what’s been guiding this as far as relentlessly trending down and informing the up/down crash set up and not triggering the down crash portion of the set up under 1680 which is targeting a quick move data 15 1995 extending down so basically this week goes away cuz it’s not being exploited closing immediately about 1705 would invalidate it that’s outlier and just interesting to note long blonde which didn’t extend her yesterday so that help since on Monday the target was met the long-standing target of this break lower was met would have hampered its recovery by immediately triggering the bicycle so yes he’s restrained optimism Health in that regard and that dipping overnight bag down to would have been the bounce limit so now we can Institute a Buy Signal and actually lower this inflection point it is based on holding this pull back them up at the 208 intraday I’m sorry holding it to the clothes I can be probed intraday but recovered through the clothes at the very least we don’t need to close positive don’t need to close above yesterday’s high or after yesterday’s don’t need to close but yes to be bullish today at least there’s enough to pull back limit at least close above 150 to 1718 that would be the minimum inflection point closing positive wouldn’t detract from that it wouldn’t be too much optimism taking this negative overnight probe of the have been balance limit and recovering the close above yesterday’s highs or even Tuesday size that wouldn’t be very shy either that wouldn’t be excessive optimism the excessive optimism the one set up that would be great other than closing back under 152 la which isn’t that’s really good it would only have maybe a longer and more protracted bottom is for me but the only Bears really Bears setup for the bond would be to prove Tuesday’s highs or I’m sorry Wednesday is probably 130 3071 5308 intraday and failed to close above it that’s the really big scenario for the long one trying and failing to prove Wednesday close above it I think that’s not close to 18 approaching the door to another back up above higher price but it’s just at this point is Harlow’s 4740 that too close back of us would be a bottoming setup reversal set up we’ll talk about it if it develops and then natural gas greeting the eia report today from a position of weakness having broken already now couple times and confirmed once under 321 bounce 2 created distributive pattern and then yesterday bouncing so loading up on more week and as long as what would make this bullish if the reaction to eat I ate today were above prioritize 3:27 to 3:30 and maintained that’s the only thing that would make this a bullet set up otherwise were headed to 311 and lower all right here any questions go and post them and I will see you there before the open okay good luck today

Proper context can start the day with a solid win and make all the difference.

Then, meet in the chaRTroom here by 9:15 ET for updates and Q&A

Through the prior close…
Tuesday’s gap up to test 2388.00 wasted little time before reversing down, plunging to test 2382.00. Bouncing back up to touch 2388.00 wasted a lot of time while reversing back down to barely attack 2382.00. Yet another bounce barely attacked 2388.00. The series of lower highs interrupted by a higher low formed a Symmetrical Triangle, and the close dipped down to its apex. The morning’s bias left outstanding “unfinished business above” at 2391.00.

Overnight action’s new info…
Tuesday’s last dip immediately extended into the Globex open, piercing Tuesday afternoon’s last low to attack 2382.00 more closely. Quickly bouncing to 2385.00 eventually started resolving back down, to fresh lows at 2381.00.

If, then…
Despite already probing yesterday’s range, today faces the same global liquidity constraints that inhibited trending yesterday. Trending can be attempted, but it’s unlikely to get very far, for very long, without being retraced very much. Post-close AAPL earnings also constrained trending yesterday, as much as the actual earnings are enabling it overnight. Closing again under 2388.00 had kept the door open to at least probing fresh lows. It can still extend down to unfinished business below at 2377.52, and probably also to 2374.00 or 2371.50. All in the name of satisfying selling pressure reflected by yesterday’s Symmetrical Triangle, stretching the rubber band so the rally can resume.

First Trade…
[Click here to view the Bias parameters] Exiting the open at 9:45 under 2381.00 would be likely to trigger the 2383.50 bias-down signal at 10:15. Exiting the open above 2386.00 would be unlikely to trigger bias-down.

Through the prior close…
Monday’s gap up to 2386.00 was reversed immediately to fill the gap back down to Friday’s 2381.00 close. But no lower, despite having put into play an offsetting test of the morning’s 2377.25 bias-down signal. Recovering back to the 2387.50 overnight highs was later extended to attack 2391.00, after absorbing a knee-jerk reaction down on headlines. It wasn’t too late for a third reaction down, or for that reaction’s break back under 2388.00 to prevent a close above it that would otherwise have been bullish.

Overnight action’s new info…
An extremely narrow and flat 2-3 point range held one test of 2388.00, and has since been bouncing repeatedly off of 2384.25.

If, then…
Gapping up above 2391.00 Tuesday would suggest last week’s rally is resuming. That’s not indicated, and neither pre-open economic report is capable of triggering that. Quarterly earnings are still coming, but the positive surprises aren’t registering in the market. The door to fresh lows remains every bit open as the two prior sessions — not required, but likely to be recovered.

First Trade…
[Click here to view the Bias parameters] Exiting the open at 9:45 under 2381.00 would be likely to trigger the 2383.25 bias-down signal at 10:15. Exiting the open under 2385.75 would be unlikely to trigger the 2388.00 bias-up signal.

Then, meet in the chaRTroom here by 9:15 ET for updates and Q&A

Through the prior close…
2388.00 had held overnight and pre-open tests, and Friday’s open quickly began sliding 9 points. The afternoon bias environment’s attack on 2378.00 was only a couple of points under the morning bias environment’s low. No capitulative leg formed, but neither was there an attempt to recover from the lows.

Overnight action’s new info…
Initially dipping to fresh lows at 2377.00 stopped even more quickly. The balance of the night has trended up relentlessly, eventually testing this morning’s 2385.75 bias-up signal. The overnight strength’s motivation is presumably the US government funding deal that was reportedly reached near the open.

If, then…
A capitulative break lower was never required, but neither was it rejected. At least, it wasn’t rejected through Friday’s close. Overnight action is threatening to reject the capitulation setup, by proxy of gapping up above Friday’s morning bias environment. One challenge to a recovery is extending higher post-open. But, first, two other challenges — relentless one-way overnight trending is often reversed at the open, especially when that overnight action greets the new week. Gapping up and extending higher anyway would still face its ultimate challenge at 2388.00 resistance, whose recovery would target new highs. Resuming the decline by capitulation or otherwise would next target 2374.00 and 2371.50.

First Trade…
[Click here to view the Bias parameters] Exiting the open at 9:45 above 2388.00 would be likely also to trigger this morning’s 2385.75 bias-up signal at 10:15. Exiting the open under 2383.50 would be unlikely to trigger bias-up.

Through the prior close…
Thursday morning’s dip to 2379.00 neutralized the minimum attractions below. The pullback could have extended, and the alternative to extending wasn’t necessarily to recover, let alone recover to fresh session highs. But the pullback recovered to fresh session highs anyway, triggering bias-up and then fulfilling its 2388.75 target. The balance of the session retraced to 2383.00, before recovering almost entirely into the close.

Overnight action’s new info…
Similar behavior to the prior two nights is different in one way that suggests optimism remains very much intact. Narrow ranging is breaking higher, but earlier and earlier. Tuesday night had ranged narrowly before trending at Wednesday’s open. Wednesday night’s narrow range broke higher a couple of hours before the open. And now last night’s narrow range already broke higher several hours ago. Trending up since Europe’s opens has recovered from the 2383.50 overnight low back up to yesterday afternoon’s 2388.75 high.

If, then…
Yesterday’s pullback was anticipated, but it could have probed deeper. It still might. The two prior narrow overnight ranges tried resolving up, and were punished for the effort. Yesterday’s pullback did produce at least the minimum, so trying to resolve up again today may succeed. But the open may be a recovery’s only chance to gain traction. Friday Factors could exacerbate its success and rally sharply to attack 2400.00, or else punish its failure by probing back under yesterday’s lows to at least test 2375.00.

First Trade…
[Click here to view the Bias parameters] Exiting the open at 9:45 under 2388.00 would be unlikely to trigger the 2389.75 bias-up signal at 10:15. Exiting the open above 2383.25 would be unlikely to trigger the 2379.00 bias-down signal.

[NEW! Unreviewed voice-to-text real-time dictation of the Market Tour recording. Again, not reviewed or edited in any way, which can be equally confusing and humorous.] good morning and welcome it is Friday at Stanford Fridays Morning Market or a quick reminder at the top we have a Saturday review tomorrow morning 9:30 a.m. eastern so hope to see you there are lots of interesting stock action with earnings and earnings reactions so aunt and mornings coming if you want to look at those and see where they’re being greeted if they’re being created from a position of strength or weakness profile announcements this week which is interesting we’re going to go over this tomorrow which is how this quarter was anticipated or approach that should say and how it is being squeezed basically right now this concept is clear because it could have on today that is gradual Improvement interrupted yesterday the other way effectually optimistic sort of by only testing resistance but not ever doing anything with it not closing above it opening at it probably it but not recovering it through element window and here’s the point is I think this template coming into Friday with the Friday Factor cutting both way either way that two days of impending illiquidity if there is an attempt to resume the rally and then attempt to resume the rally fails whether or not 1895 I was tested and held or testing I-75 and then reverse back down under 88 through the open that would be pretty bad if the initial buying pressure is failing that finding new sponsorship retracting his sponsorship then the same optimism that led to such a shallow pull back yesterday as the fighting for the extent of the full-back that same shell and it puts them the reaction down in real close proximity to breaking out of your so where you say is stop short it may not be done there may be more to come so the difference will be I think and weather buy a sub triggers are not if we have it triggered by especially if I step is tested and not triggered not only will we be looking at sliding probably through the morning maybe not the more they fighted I mean there’s so much optimism that they might fight it for the morning and then capitulate in the afternoon but down for the day anyway if there’s any attempt to rally and it fails from 88 rate 9:35 or be if there’s even not an attempt to Rally I just hovering here and waiting too late to try rolling anyway so there’s that too likely scenarios for today and important note being we haven’t ended up just because it’s minimum objective as hell then responded reactive alright keep coming Qualcomm falling 4.2% pre market app reviews on dispute surprising on revenues and earnings alright probably not minimum is fulfilled but I’d still like to see some more backing and filling up rolling lower but I’ll take seriously recovery if it starts getting in the way but I’ll be late to that one as opposed to waiting for those first so probably not going to get before extending higher so this continuation pattern already resolving up and up so I don’t want to buy a dip at this point now it as weakness which also Smoke Filled its minimum objective which was to probe under prior Lowe’s buy still though with the NAFTA unknown renegotiation unknown the u.s. pull out or not no no probably not probably at some point probably has a little more weakness or probing lower than its really closing lowers you can say but again that’s probably going to pull out of NAFTA which I say based on one thing alone and that is big news like that are unlikely I’ll say another thing to its probably going to go shooting to threaten it so at that point or if that’s the case or even a possibility we want to note that the Looney has completed its pull back or its reversal actually so no requirement it’s a little premature at this moment alright is not really needing to retest it’s high but doesn’t have a lot of traction up here I think the risk of one more clothes so not really willing to front of that here alright see if it seemed that way at all but this is probably not going to produce and immediate recovery that’s better there isn’t any requirement that probably
