What is your target on the downside here short term after this failed breakout.
thanks
should be larger than the tinted area, I think.
Hi Cobra,
Does your logic for this particular tinted area stem from looking at past down moves? It seems you are gauging how strong the market can sell (intraday) before Bulls fight back? Thanks in advance - I'm curious!
Yes, generally, in an uptrend, the push up gets weaker and weaker, while pullback gets stronger and stronger, so you can use the previous pullback size as reference. The same applies to downtrend. This is my theory, Cobra's law, maybe number 2. The number 1 Cobra's low is, well, some know and I'll say this later when it applies.
Well done Cobra - tinted area target just hit by my measure.
I never been so bullish short term, this looks more like a shake out before a big run up, anyways, so long 5dma holds I am still thinking that bulls got something under his sleeves. sneaky bulls, I can smell some blood I hope it's not turn out to be my own.

Might be a scheme to initiate shorts today and to push index up later on - either tonight or tomorrow in order to break overhead resistance - but that's a wild guess. Overhead resistance is really strong and hard to crack..

Interesting that we're down, despite the dollar's trashing. Imagine if it weren't being suppressed. This market would be diving deep into the pond, along with Cobra's golden frog.
