Bloomberg Radio reported, earlier, a White House statement that added an "unless" to the proposed steel/alum tariffs, concerning NAFTA partners Mexico and Canada.

These tariffs would affect those countries, UNLESS they renegotiate the NAFTA treaty. That is very different from a flat statement.

Can't confirm this, but if true that would represent a serious "walkback" of the prior U.S. position, and would be a cause of market joy.

I am looking at a double bottom at 12:26 and 2:20 with a high between them at 1:15 at ES 2721. So I am waiting to see if I get a double top, or a bullish move on up. Either way this thing has fallen asleep. :)

Bulls need QQQ, IWM, MDY, XLF etal to push thru to new HODs here, or we may be seeing the terminus of this second strong upthrust (Fri aft being the first).

yes, i think the markets see it as "pending" TRADE WARS
as in: wait-and-see
(too obvious?)

NorthmanTrader.com posted on Feb 27th another way to look at the year to date tech rally (using Stockcharts charts). If you liked a small group of stocks moving the index up last year then you should really like the way it is an even smaller group with negative divergences.

I admit I do not "get'" Tesla and Netflix and I am not talking about their product. Why does Netflix take off when they say yes we have to borrow 5 billion a year in a rising rate environment to keep the product pipeline going. After watching America On Line blow up I just get a cold shudder when ever anyone starts talking about eyeballs when it isn't clear where they turn into massive profits. I hope I am wrong this time, but I doubt it.

This last up move has been so quiet I didn't get a single buy signal from my oscillator ( it generates about 30 signals a day).
So far it is still short of that spike high.

Oy, I can barely handle six signals, using TSI [bottom panel] for momentum on 2minutes, smalls, intraday

1500 Tick ES
1500 Tick ES
Most of those signals are filtered out. Those four sells went nowhere. The gold ADX line in the second box was falling and the blue +DI never got below 15. The third box is the DI system but with each part shown as Rate Of Change.

Anyway, as noisy as that oscillator is I was surprised to see no buy signals on this leg, especially since the DI system had a clear signal around ES 2719 with a rising ADX, rising +DI and the -DI dropping below 15.

Of course the big signal will be taking out Thursday's spike high, if it happens! :)

Ha, that is a double top to close the day, pausing the bounce between a 50 % and a 61.8% retracement of the drop. Overnight action will be very interesting, looking for a gap open for sure, just clueless about the direction! :lol:
