Friday 9/11/2015

The daily chart shows price yesterday making a lower high, lower low, but higher close versus Wednesday's candle, with price again finding soft support on the weekly pivot and MD MA. Price thus far today has had an inside day and is trading little-changed from yesterday's close.

The consolidation pattern continues to unfold in the market, once again making cycle peaks and troughs difficult to discern as price whipsaws through moving averages and pivots. As mentioned yesterday, there are many possible scenarios that would explain why price is behaving as it is -some of these scenarios are bullish but more are bearish. Thus, unless price offers more proof to one of the bullish scenarios, it makes no sense to be long as this pattern unfolds.





The hourly chart shows price yesterday making an early 24Hr low near the weekly pivot, a possibility that was mentioned in yesterday's commentary.  Price rebounded to make what appears to have been an extremely early 24Hr high yesterday afternoon, followed by a lower Session high in overnight trading.  We are in the timeframe to see a 24Hr low being made, and price appears to be finding support at the 1940 area, just above the weekly pivot.  Should price trade above the Session MA and turn that average upward, it would indicate that the 24Hr low has been seen and price should trade higher for the day.  Given that the consolidation pattern which has affected the longer timeframe cycles appears to now be impacting the 24Hr cycle as well, I am more hesitant than normal to daytrade on the upside of this 24Hr cycle.
