(Unpublished) EOD (Previous) thru Aug 2016

Short reviews of the day's market action after the majors close...
Posting daily and session charts to describe the action plus some others I found interesting...
 Reviewing my comments is entertaining - longer term guesses****are  occasionally (right) but usually proved (wrong) by the next day...
One of the benefits of my very short term trading style is that this fact does not matter in the least!
Trade charts are posted on my Sharpshorts Daily Trade Results blog. EOW and EOM charts are posted on a separate page.

Is that a stick sandwich after a pennant break pattern? Very rare...
...really really rare...so rare it doesn't ever happen...whatever it is, it formed on low volume.


ES up on the day

Very low volume and narrow range today...Friday was an indecisive spinner (at the 4:00 pm close)... 
and those two candles following Thursday's rush to get long in ATH territory... 
I believe we got us a bona-fide bullish pennant on a pole...

Just after the major markets closed...
Big drop in the remaining minutes of the session...totally erasing yesterday's gains.

 Most of the moves came in the overnight session...MMO players couldn't make up their minds...

Three white soldiers...





-------------07/11/2016 Monday-------------

-------------06/21/2016 Tuesday-------------
Spinners





-------------06/20/2016 Monday-------------
Jitters in the financial community - for Wednesday's session open margin requirement will increase due to
  "uncertainty of the United Kingdom European Union membership referendum" .

Wide ranges again, closing up on lower volume...Strong overnight session into the MMO 
then trending down to the MM close...
After the majors closed @4 pm the minis rebounded back up to the overnight session levels...






-------------06/17/2016 Friday-------------

Another high volume WR candle down...no hints its over yet.




-------------06/10/2016 Friday-------------

-------------06/03/2016 Friday -------------
WR outside day, long lower tails again but closing down. Volume up a notch from yesterday.








-------------06/03/2016 Friday pre-MMO-------------
Reminiscent of a fat-finger rouge trader or a FED minutes announcement:..




-------------06/02/2016 Thursday-------------
WR and long tails again but closing up nicely, near their highs.











-------------06/01/2016 Wednesday-------------
