Testing resistance, a breakout is a little more likely. Roller coaster show at 2 pm, I'll just watch today. So far looks like a range day, until the show of course. Just nowadays almost no surprise from Fed so not much show to see.

[JFR]

ES daily. Still edging up. Riding the EMA 20.

Quiet day. Did lots of work pre-open and in the first hour. Read the news and sports. Now for a real break. AFK for a while.

ES five minutes. Not really going anywhere.

Billionaire genius Ray Dalio:
Head of Bridgewater, the largest hedge fund, down 18.6% YTD, as of the end of August. This is the fund's worst losses in a decade.
Problems:
Sees $3.5 Billion In Redemptions during the first 7 months of the year.
Internal computer models misread the market (also known as the New York Fed model). 
Dalio losing an arbitration fight with ex-staffers.
Ongoing feuds with his co-cheif executive and has laid off "dozens" of employees.
[And possibly he has a Hubris problem].

Dalio took to TV on Tuesday and defended his fund: "...We have never had a significant downturn, all positive years, but we knew that there would come a day. We missed the pandemic going down and that is the reality."
What changes has Dalio made to adjust? Apparently none. “We are operating in the same way we have always operated,” he told Bloomberg TV. 
The firm's key issue, according to insiders, was that it adopted a risk off strategy in March while the market was tanking, and then failed to put risk back on despite the Federal Reserve guaranteeing it would backstop the market with unlimited QE.

So far it's a bull flag but please no more drop

IWM and RSP are strong today so bulls should be OK.

Banks are up today, but seriously, they are a mess

$TSLA didn't reach the weekly EMA20 as I hoped but the pullback did get bought which reflects perfectly you human's trading behavior. Now let's see whether bears can make a double top here which also is you human's typical trading behavior...

$GLD, still could be a descending triangle in the making which is a continuation pattern so in theory should breakout on the upside but personally the descending triangle is always bear biased to me
