Is the Downtrend Nearing its End?
Last Friday, on October 13th, a significant white candle with exceptionally high volume was observed, possibly driven by two catalysts:
– Escalating geopolitical conflicts.
– A decrease in CPI, leading to market expectations of a potential halt in rate increases by the Fed.
Trend
– A large white candle with exceptionally high volume touched the upper boundary of the downtrend channel.
– Let's observe if the market can sustain its bullish momentum next week and breach the downtrend channel.
Symmetrical Projection: Breaking the Downtrend “N” Pattern
– The 100% price projection from the initial swing starting at the 2nd lower high has been achieved.
– Furthermore, the price has already surpassed the 100% projection of the pullback, indicating the possible termination of the downtrend pattern.
– After this breach, we can expect either a reversal in the trend or a sideways movement.
Conclusion
– An uptrend is more likely to occur based on the two situations mentioned just now:
Preparation for the Possible Uptrend Scenario
– Instead of simply jumping into the breakout, I will be waiting for a retest before getting on board.
– Potential retest levels: Some key Fibonacci retracement levels from the lowest low (A) to the previous high (B) (assuming the previous high is the initial target price of the upward move).
