Bouhmidi-Bands and Overnight Session - Name of the Game The overnight range was the name of the game today. As mentioned earlier, we were looking for a potential break in either direction. After establishing the initial balance, we saw a test of the overnight session low (5019), which was successfully defended. Subsequently, buyers entered the market, leading to a push higher in $ES. This move broke the high of the overnight session (5036), confirming bullish momentum and surpassing the previous day high (5058) & upper #BouhmidiBand, reaching a peak at 1.3s BB (5074). In the last 1.5 hours, NYSE:ES retraced back within the Bouhmidi-Bands.

DAX - Bouhmidi-Reversal next targets After a nervous start and breaking through the previous day's low (17716) and the lower Bouhmidi bands (17678), a relaxation in the form of a reversal towards the range of the previous day is emerging around noon. This is initially a positive sign! The next intraday targets are:
If defending the previous day's low: 17761/17863/17996
If falling below the previous day's low: 17678/17598/17519..
S&P 500 - Recovery at Bouhmidi-BandsS&P 500 fell below the important level of 5200 and below the lower BB as well as the previous day's low after higher inflation data then expected. Now right after initial balance, we see a reversal towards the bandwidth. If the level is not reclaimed, the downward trend could continue today. The next targets would then be at BB (5148/5128).

SPX - A day in a life of a short trader Even if we had the FED meeting today - It was a clear and visible that selling pressure will lead the way.

Right after intial balance we broke wit lower Bouhmidi-Band indicating more selling pressure to come.

At the end we close below of 2 sigma Bouhmidi-Band. SPX lost 1,6% at the end.
