 06/17/2017...Daily, weekly and monthly

Channeling for 1 1/2 years...IF the techs are leading us down and IF the others follow 

then I'd suspect their respective lower channels would provide support.

Differing Fibonacci retracements are shown IF they drop from here.

NQ leading followed by the ES while the YM lags

09/17/2016

 

09/03/2016

Preping for a break out or looking like a double top near ATH's ??? 

We're not near a major bottom...('Course my bullish bias always sees postive P/A)

I think we are  exiting Phase B and closing in on Phase C &D:

Stalled narrow ranges for the past several weeks and Long lower tails suggest accumulation 
is happening. Stochastics are 'HOOKING" on the dailies... but I expect we'll see more retesting
 and/or another selling climax before they run.

09/02/2016 -- Weekly and dailies

07/23/2016 -- Continuous contract back to 2010

All are showing BatWing "W" consolidation patterns in long term up trends...
The ES and YM breaking out while the NQ lags a bit. 

07/11/2016...Brexit - discounted...moving on - ATH territory

06/24/2016...BREXIT moving markets...

A half a session has encompassed the entire past 3 month's price range. 

BREXIT . . . about time Great Britain... 
Which EURO members are better off after joining than before? 
At least the Brits recognize their mistake. 
Got it goin on...

06/14/2016 Continuous Contract

6 month daily

Weekly 2+ years

 Weekly 7+ years

05/24/2016

ES breaking out of a 3 wave down channel, NQ breaking up from its recent range but the YM still in its 3 wave channel.

Big percentage moves on  'normal' volume...the H&S patterns looking like they may still be in play.

05/17/2016 BEAR FOOD

 05/14/2016...Dailies

After a new ATH for the ES in early April the markets have been moving down.

04/01/2016...End of 1st Quarter Dailies 

A perfect ES double bottom reversal  pattern.

The Nasdaq 100 has been lagging since February's lows. 

March 13, 2016...Rally to the Brach Zone

The little guys are lagging the big boys

February 19, 2016...Channel Breaks...

5-Wave channel break on the session chart and an MT SLING off of a 2B Dragon pattern on the daily...

Headed towards the Brach Zone retrace area of the down trend...stochastic is very over-bought so there will be some fighting from here.

February 14, 2016... daily and 4 hour...new patterns

The dailies are approaching O/S and double bottoms have formed...5-wave up moves followed by 5-wave down moves...

February 6, 2016... daily and 4 hour-per-candle YTD

One week later and the bullish ascending triangles turned into bearish wedges ...

January 28, 2016 daily and 4 hour-per-candle YTD

Bullish ascending triangles on the 4 hour, MAC Trend crossing up but Stochastic rising into O/B on the dailies

January 20, 2016 weekly and daily

Just a look at the current +10% pullback from the all time highs and a projected 20% pullback.

December 18, 2015 daily and 5 session

A roller coaster week for the 4 horsemen closing below last Friday's levels. 

Perhaps the FED announcement of a 1/4 point rate increase is finally sinking in.

December 4, 2015 daily and weekly 

An event driven week with the FED minutes starting a big drop Wednesday, culminating with a blow-out volume plunge...
 for Thursday...Don't fight the FED...

 "Good" employment figures released on Friday is the "reason" the media spouts for today's complete reversal ...
for Friday...Forget the FED...

Seems we'rel going to continue climbing the bull market wall of worry.

Continuous Contract Weekly

November 24, 2015 daily and weekly outlook

Remember, my T/A is nearly always biased to the upside, I don't see or know bear signals even
half as well as I pretend to know bull-stuff. Disclaimers aside, here goes: 

We have already reached a near perfect double top on the daily (July-November) 

and the continuous contract weekly fell out of it's multi year channel but has almost recovered it all back. 

Troubling is the stochastic into over-bought on both charts and hooking down on the longer term...(bearish) 

The shorter term chart has the trend (MACD EMAs) crossed down and dropping (bearish) 

while the longer term has them crossed up and rising (bullish). 

In my T/A book, the MACD trends cancel each other out which leaves us with the two negative stochastic signals. 

Being much shorter term signals they can only turn things short term..although they can turn on a dime and give change. 

So I'm going with the weekly longer term chart, new highs and all that... I think we still have many months of up left. 

It may be years before something goes so terribly wrong that there will be 

no way that ANYBODY can deny or excuse it away. 

 November 13, 2015 Daily and 5 sessions

A bad week at the salt mines, down every day. With the MACD EMAs crossing and the stochastic not yet oversold

 it looks like more of the same to come...

October 21, 2015 Daily and 5 sessions

This thing could go either way...so what else is new?

October 8, 2015 Daily and 2 hour

The markets continued last week's reversal on elevated volume although Friday's session closed with smallish spinners on very low volume. The big boys surpassed or matched last month's highs with the NQ and RUT lagging behind. 

The continuous contract weekly charts of the ES and YM still look very bearish.

October 2, 2015 Daily and session

Breaking out of down trends on the dailies...wild 24 hour sessions for Friday.

September 25, 2015 Weekly and daily

Continued sell off for this week...Daily and 5 session charts:

September 4, 2015 Weekly and daily

All have definitely fallen out of their respective 2 year up channels...

August 21, 2015

Rough week culminating with massive volume on Friday...After China's recent currency devaluations
 the perception is that they beat our FED to mark...

August 14, 2015

FUTs technicals are still looking positive to me. (My T/A bias is almost always bullish**) 

Here's some scribble-ings pointing out bullish stuff... and potential BZ targets. 

Daily and weekly charts of my 4 horsemen market proxies are included...The weeklies only show 1 1/2 years 

of the much longer term channel trends. The following obvious stuff is mainly based on the dailies. 

5-wave declining wedges on the DJIA and Russell 2000 e minis 'should' breakout and up... 

Both the MAC histo's and Stochastic show divergences with low-ish MAC ema trends to add support to my bullish view.

The Nasdaq 100 e mini has posted a 3-wave bull flag with stochastic divergence.

The S&P e mini pattern is not so clear as the others - 

Either a sloppy triangle or 3-wave channel but it's stochastic has divergence too...

** Bear in mind that I am a day trader and my long term guesses are mainly for amusement... 

With my methods, it matters little to me whether the overall markets are in bear or bull mode.

August 5, 2015

Good ranges but pretty much sideways month/month...

July 1...Ominous patterns on the weekly charts

All but the RUT have broken down and out of their rising wedges. 

June...06/19/2015 Weekly Rounded tops?

June...06/12/2015 EOW

Ominous rising wedges on the big boys closing the week with long legged spinners.

June...06/05/2015 EOW
The ES,YM and NQ closed lower week-over-week while the RUT went it's own way.

Ominous rising wedges on the weeklies...

May...05/29/2015 EOM
The ES and YM printed new all time highs mid-month but closed UNCH for the month.
The NQ and RUT closed slightly up month over month.

Daily and 5 session charts -
 The ES and YM are testing support at their respective lower wedge trend lines.
Not much change for the past 3 months.

 
 The NQ got turned away at resistance without breaking it's March high.
It closed the month out slightly above where it was 3 months ago.

The RUT's been going sideways, perhaps building a channel defined by March's low and April's high.

May...05/22/2015 EOW
Two week review...All up with the ES and YM printing ATH's with the NQ almost matching it's April highs.
The RUT was up nicely but seems to be lagging a bit, pausing at it's BZ retrace area of its swoon from April.

May...05/09/2015 EOW
Two week review...All down but the big big boys are back where they started...

...little guys have some catching up to do...

April...04/24/2015 EOW
NQ leadng back up, The YM and ES re-gaining all or most of their losses last week...the RUT is bringing up the rear.

April...04/17/2015 EOW

Friday's long candle down erases the week's gain.

April...04/04/2015 EOW

March 03/20/2015 EOW

Turn around at the lower wedge lines ...

Friday's close suggested a pop for Monday's open...

 6:00 pm Sunday - And it's off to the races...

March 03/06/2015 EOW

Seems that the highly anticipated turn has finally come...the ides of March are upon us.

February 02/27/2015 EOM

Trended up all month, printing ATH's.

ES over NQ 4 hour bars for the month

YM over RUT 4 hour bars for the month

ES and NQ daily

YM and RUT daily

February 02/13/2015 EOW

Solid gains all week...the NQ, the ES and RUT all in record high territory with the YM bringing up the rear...

January 01/23/2015 EOW

Another week, another reversal for the 3rd week...We had the ECB QE news before the majors opened Thursday.

January 01/16/2015 EOW
More interesting reversals for the 2nd week...this time down. The ES and the YM have broken out
of their rising wedges and retested those levels Friday. Also interesting is that all but the NQ's retrace BZ areas (Oct to Dec run up)
 co-inside closely with the Fibonacci extensions of the low to high runs of December.

January 01/09/2015 EOW
Interesting reversals for the 1st complete week of the year.
Session charts - the ES, YM and NQ had histogram divergences at the lows last Tuesday...the RUT did not.
On the dailies - all but the NQ rebounded 'perfectly' from their BZ retracements of December's High/Low runs...
The NQ overshot its BZ to print a divergent double bottom.
