Let's learn about flats.good evening,
in preparation for my next few bear posts,
i'd like to talk about the three different types of flats in the markets.
the main reason why i'm bringing this up right now,
is because the USA Indexes are displaying all three of these patterns currently,
so it's important to familiarize yourself with these fractals, for future references.
feel free to share this with your peoples if you find it helpful.

regular flats :
• A corrective 3 waves move labelled as ABC
• Subdivision of wave A and B is in 3 waves
• Subdivision of wave C is in 5 waves impulse / diagonal
• Subdivision of wave A and B can be in any corrective 3 waves structure including zigzag, flat, double three, triple three
• Wave B terminates near the start of wave A
• Wave C generally terminates slightly beyond the end of wave A
• Wave C needs to have momentum divergence
Fibonacci Ratio Relationship
• Wave B = 90% of wave A
• Wave C = 61.8%, 100%, or 123.6% of wave AB

expanded flats
• A corrective 3 waves move labelled as ABC
• Subdivision of wave A and B is in 3 waves
• Subdivision of wave C is in 5 waves impulse / diagonal
• Subdivision of wave A and B can be in any corrective 3 waves structure including zigzag, flat, double three, triple three
• Wave B of the 3-3-5 pattern terminates beyond the starting level of wave A
• Wave C ends substantially beyond the ending level of wave A
• Wave C needs to have momentum divergence
Fibonacci Ratio Relationship
• Wave B = 123.6% of wave A
• Wave C = 123.6% – 161.8% of wave AB

running flats
• A corrective 3 waves move labelled as ABC
• Subdivision of wave A and B is in 3 waves
• Subdivision of wave C is in 5 waves impulse / diagonal
• Subdivision of wave A and B can be in any corrective 3 waves structure including zigzag, flat, double three, triple three
• Wave B of the 3-3-5 pattern terminates substantially beyond the starting level of wave A as in an expanded flat
• Wave C fails travel the full distance, falling short of the level where wave A ended
• Wave C needs to have momentum divergence
Fibonacci Ratio Relationship
• Wave B = 123.6% of wave A
• Wave C = 61.8% – 100% of wave AB

Rty1
RTY is at 200MA max resitance level is from 1900-19005Should not get above 1905 on any test for much lower numbers to be seen next year.
If it holds, might get below 1500 early next year.
Will short 1900-02 zone with a 10-15 points stop.
ideally we see a good move down to at minimum revisit pre CPI day close
RTY Daily MFI overboughtSomething I noticed while flipping through some charts, RTY1! daily MFI is overbought along with GM, PCAR, YM1! (Dow futures), Dow components like WMT, CAT, YNH, etc along with XLF (financial ETF).
Definitely not chasing a Fed pump even if my 3 hr indicators show oversold. My favorite stocks are overbought, that's a signal to take a pause. Will be shorting when 3 hr indicators go overbought.
Russell1806 Target Achieved..New Pattern DevelopingTechnical & Trade View
Russell 2000 (e-mini futures contract)
Bias: Intraday Bullish Above Bearish below 1785
1806 Target Achieved..New Pattern Developing
Technicals
Intraday 1785 is primary support
Primary upside objective is 1882/92
Failure below 1780 opens a test of 1760 H4 Value Area High
20 Day VWAP bullish, 5 Day VWAP bullish
RTY UpdateWound up being a 4 day short squeeze after all, like I said last week, I changed my focus to bankrupt companies and snagged W puts this morning. Closed out my winners and losers (from last week) and put the profits into W puts at a lower strike. Just some light trading in this weird market.
I think we could get a bounce here because ES and RTY MFI are oversold. Yields are exploding again and FDAX looks bearish so we may get a gap down tomorrow anyways.
TSLA earnings tonight. Focus should be on bankrupt companies, not gonna play the bigger companies.
RTY1! - Weekly Market Update, 10/17The indices had a rather wild week, the technicals are approaching being oversold. A bounce from here would not be unexpected as there is some consolidation occurring as price is currently hovering around the June low's area.
I'd like to see the market cycle back to an area of being overbought and finding a low risk confirmed area to short from. At this time I'm looking for thing's to setup again for a desirable entry.
I've adjusted support and resistance structures accordingly.
RTY1!HELLO GUYS THIS MY IDEA 💡ABOUT RTY1! is nice to see strong volume area....
Where is lot of contract accumulated..
I thing that the Seller from this area will be defend this SHORT position..
and when the price come back to this area, strong SELLER will be push down the market again..
DOWNTREND + Support from the past + Strong volume area is my mainly reason for this short trade..
IF you like my work please like share and follow thanks

RTY - Reason Why I didn't short yesterdayFirst of all, I should've known EUro PMI was coming out, oops.
Anyways, I didn't short yesterday because RSI was touching oversold and this drop was already the same size as the previous drop. (Two red arrows) The fact that the drop is accelerating is bad news.
RTY Daily in up channelThe RTY daily time frame is in an up channel. The
market is near the bottom of the channel. If
support holds. It is expected the market to push
bullish towards the top of the channel price point
2076.3 about +2,840 ticks above the market. It
will be a good idea to turn to the one hour time
frame and to look for low prices in the buy zone.
