ES updateWell, I had to take mom to teh airport so I missed all teh fun.
I said yesterday that today would be a pump and dump, only they left out the pump, lol. MFI almost oversold, RSI not there yet. Of course they can do the same thing they did this Monday....
No idea which way the market goes Monday, hoping it goes oversold and I'll buy some calls. Staying cash, there's no play here, too late to do anything.
RTY Daily Range Looking For Long IdeaThe RTY daily time frame is in a large sideways
movement. The market hit resistance price point
2302.4 and is now falling towards support price
point 2113.3. It will be a good idea to look for a
bullish U-turn the closer the market gets to
the daily support price point 2113.3.
I plan on turning to the one hour time frame
and looking for a bullish trend to form near the
daily support.
Futures Levels | Week Ahead Sept 19 (ES, YM, NQ, RTY, ZN, GC)Yoooo Speculators - let's look at some levels in the futures stock indices following a telegraphed week of selling into last Friday's quad witching.
Overall, the markets have cooperated with our most recent analysis that suggested shorts in the NQ and ZB. Now, I'm gonna go out on a pretty firm limb (you know, since markets never go down), and say that we're probably close to the end of the selling in this cycle.

Trade Like You Mean It!
ES UpdateDoesn't show up well on the 3 hr chart because it reversed so sharply but MFI did hit overbought. I mentioned it on my RTY post yesterday and if you look at the RTY1! chart, it clearly goes overbought, so did YM. RSI having trouble holding above 50 like I mentioned earlier this week.
Tomorrow is Ponzi Friday plus quad witching. Expect the gap to close and big whipsaw regardless of which way the market gaps.
Indicators now neutral so hard to say which way this goes tomorrow. Will update only if I see anything. Not feeling very bullish or bearish today at this point.
RTY: One Hour time frame BullishThe RTY one hour time frame is in an up channel.
The market hit the bottom of the channel and
showing signs of pushing bullish towards the top
of the channel.
Entry: Counter trend line break bullish above
the bottom of the channel.
STOP: 2201.8
LIMIT: 2325.00
As long as the market stays above the bottom of
the channel. It will be a good idea to turn to the
five minute time frame and to look for tunnel
trader long / destination trader long opportunities.
ES Pre-Weekend UpdateRSI never made it over 50 and it looks to me like MFI needs to go oversold before we get a bounce.
More than likely hits my bottom trendline or comes close to it like last time. Not sure if the drop happens Mon or Tuesday.
i don;t like to carry a position over the weekend, but I am shorting a few foreign indices.
Tutorial | How To Use RSI To Find Turning Points ... or NOT!Hey Speculators - Happy Friday - welcome to another video tutorial, and thanks again to the @TradingView Editors for featuring my last post, which I've linked here, and is related to the topic on hand for today. That topic is how, and when, to not fight a trend.
I'd suspect many traders are familiar with the Relative Strength Indicator (RSI), used to measure overbought and oversold conditions. In this video, I discuss what I look for when using RSI to filter trade signals and identify when strong is REALLY strong. The inverse would hold true as well (you know, weak, or really WEAK), but we all know markets never go down. :)

Futures Levels | Look Ahead For The Week of Aug 22The VIX popped and dropped last week making the selling again a very short term event. The S&P ES1! is right back on trend after holding the 55EMA on the daily. Gold GC1! is in balance and crude CL1! continues to look like it wants lower prints.
