5min intraday timeframe, SPY and QQQ are below the 20period MA for the first time since they crossed above yest afternoon.

An excellent low-risk place to put in a feeler short, with a natural stop just above the earlier high of the morning. (Should one be bearishly inclined.)

SPX 5m, mind the inter day gap at 1948ish, = 50% retrace of the pullback from the all time highs 20d @1953ish 50d @1956ish

2 hour.

Quite an odd little flashcrash there in the Brazil stock market. Caused perturbation in all broad Latin Am funds, as well as EWZ and the Bovespa Index.

Brazil presidential candidate presumed dead in plane crash

Price recovered rapidly. Perhaps "presumed" turned out to be rumored? (Otherwise why the sharp reversal to near prior price levels...)

He did not have a chance of getting elected anyways, so they probably realized there was no reason to sell.

consolidation not always favors bulls, a prior strong uptrend leading to the pattern is a must.

failed breakout, as long as the lower blue line holds, bulls are fine.
