Friday 2/12/16

Price yesterday made a lower high, lower low and lower close versus Wednesday as we continued on the downside of the multi-week cycle.   Price thus far today has opened above its daily pivot and eclipsed yesterday's high. This is behavior indicative of being on the upside of the multi-day cycle, but it remains to be seen whether yesterday's low marked the MW low and price is now on the upside of the MW cycle.  If so, price will be able to trade above MD MA resistance and turn that average higher as price searches for its MW high projected for 2/23.  If we need another MD cycle before the MW low is seen, then price will find resistance here at the MD MA and take out yesterday's low within the next few days.
 

 
The hourly chart shows price falling sharply in pre-market trading yesterday and making its 24Hr low before the NY open.  Price whipsawed violently throughout the day, but was finally able to trade above the 24Hr MA in afterhours trading.  Price found frequent support at the daily pivot in overnight trading, indicating that yesterday was a multi-day low.
 
We are overdue for price to see a 24Hr high- in fact we are in the timeframe for the 24Hr low to be seen.  It is possible that a 24Hr high and low were seen in overnight trading (note the brief downturn in the Session MA), in which case price would be expected to rise throughout the day, but I will work on the assumption that price will make its overdue 24Hr high at MD MA resistance and fall into a late morning 24Hr low before rallying into the close.  Support for this low should be found at the 24Hr MA or daily pivot. Failure to find support at these levels will indicate that price is likely still on the downside of the MW cycle and lower lows would be expected by Monday.
