Rty!
RTY Daily +2,000 Tick potential moveThe RTY daily time frame has created a consolidation range. The market is at the bottom of the range showing signs of pushing bullish towards the top of the range. If support can hold and the market pushes towards the top of the range. The research shows a +2,000 Tick bullish push opportunity.
NQ - Micros, as Indicated BR/VG throw-over attempt is a SELLThe ALGOs are attached themselves to this Draw for Fills @ .618 off Lows or
the -.382.
There has been one toss over which has traded, there will be another simply
to run all Retail SELLERs out of the SELL.
This happened in 2020, it is happening again.
Although Breadth expanded among smaller Caps and AAPLs Gamma Squeeze
failed at the new ATH and top of the range - BR/VG continue to CONfuse Sellers
with these prop house retracements.
Volumes dried up at lows during Globex as the chasers pressed off the ledge and
continued pressing until - a sharp reversal took Price to implied Targets above.
Never discount their ability to FORCE a FILL. N E V E R.
They always get it, it is purely axiomatic.
This imbues the Dippers to reconsider their recent mistakes of chasing ATHs, but
make no mistake... this MESS will drop so quickly, most heads will spin... it's setting up.
ROCs to the downside will gain momentum as Wall Street gets its fill.
Follow them, we do. It is how we traders win.
They have the inside line on looming Geopolitical RISK.
NQ - Sell Entries for Larger Decline (DX shows the way)Levels are for THIS Weekly Closing. .382 is the likely Level... unless
BR goes full tilt Friday... tough move for them as it puts them out of balance.
VG & BR played cat and mouse until 3:45PM EST this go around
and then unleashed the afterburners expected early at 2:45PM EST.
We'll take it as it shows the longer pattern of Distribution has come
to a decided end.
AS Liquidity dries up into Friday, they'll need to buy it... or it plunges.
14502 is our next primary Target as 2Day everything broke.
Uncle Buck wants 94.65 - it will get there.
TSLA couldn't save the ES, let alone itself as it tried and tried to
break 696, Sellers said nope, screw you.
4441 ES pivot is now gone, adios... 4003 or so, 200SMA decline
has begun, it's going to be sporty, so we've moved 1/2 positions
out to December on ES and NQ - YM Losing 35K was an important
footnote on the Day as it can RT.
RUT = DOA, never able to recapture 2335.
The initial leg has another 8% with ease prior to a whipsaw.
CONfidence in Dipping is ending. Fear and cautionary tones setting
in today. Ever gullible... changed their tunes as well @ 4:02PM EST.
Only the Kinky Meme's are hanging in there, the usual suspects
AMC< GME< TSLA (yes Tesla is a Meme imho)
As Opex unfolds on an ill-liquid Friday, any large Volume profit
taking will see a 3% down day without breaking a sweat.
We repeatedly warned of this decline setup, although our higher
Fills were not tagged, we're good with that, there is plenty more,
a great deal more where today came from.
Larger downside targets were all confirmed today, there isn't much
out of DC or NYC that can reverse what is now in motion.
Trust and Confidence were broken this week.
Buckle up, it's going to be a nasty ride South for another 400 ES
handles.
NQ - DECWell that was fun, 157 Handies off DEC.
Closed 2 on break of TGT Lows.
Looking like much more to come.
Closed ES @ 4410 from 4441.
Closed YM @ 35101 from 35488
Closed CL @ 66.56 from 67.54
Closed VX @ 21.00 from 19.80
IN/OUT Burger on SOXS 2x for 37 ticks x 35K avepos.
Closed RTY @ 2164 from 2199
TESLA - why bother, a very large percentage win.
AMC - bag holding 10K in profit took off 4K for $8.3K.
Ugly out there, Jerome said so.
Today comes to an end, to those traders who followed - Congrats.
We took da opposers $ all day. Doesn't happen often, but a solid win for team
J.
VIX - Defends with a Front Run on SEP CT - Aggressive BID comingProtection is being bid again in a larger than usual front run of
Gap Fills below for the September Contract.
Don Jerome Pablo Escobar Gavaria Powell made certain yesterday's
close was another barn burner after announcing September would
see the taper arrive.
Thinking about thinking about thinking about thinking has concluded.
All the signs were there, and... ya can't say the BOG @ the FED did not
warn as Voting Member after Voting Member made it clear - it is time.
And.... Corona Babona is Back Baby!
How do you solve the Rental Crisis? With another crisis, of course :)
No such luck today it would appear as FEAR is gaining further traction.
RTY is leading the decline, ES NQ YM obliging the setup.
Hopefully we see one more throw over for additional entries.
Macro Data continues to confirm the Global choke hold as Growth
is gone going.
The Globex Gap down is ripe for continuation.
Correction gains in probability as the chasers of the Likes of Tesla,
Amazon and Semi-Conductors are being lit up repeatedly.
Rarely, if ever, does the BTD and Hubris peak in a level of sheer
silliness without cause in horrific Economic Circumstance.
The Fanbois were smoked for 7% in 2 days.
The APES pray to the Squeeze, the Gamers will need new consoles
for the next big things and Nokia will head to $120.
"They got a contract on the Moon Bro!"
Ok, good luck.
We'll take the hard fade on this every time.
Enjoy the show.
+600 Tick Idea on RTY One HourRTY one hour time frame is in an up channel. The market is at the bottom of the channel. If the market can give a counter trend line break bullish while staying above the bottom of the channel. The research shows there is a strong history the market could increase +600 ticks towards the top of the channel.
ES - Chopping @ HighsES SPY SPX preparing for a substantial Drop.
We are anticipating 2 thrusts lower towards the 200SMA.
It's been well over one year since we've seen a test of this
level.
For now, we are simply seeing further distribution on low volumes.
A number of Divergences will complete this week after trading into the
UTL (Upper Trend Line) and bring about the correction.
Trading to and through the 50SMA will confirm the larger trade lower.
Complacency is at higher than usual levels.
The BULLs don't see this going down, not believing it can drop.
The BEARs lose hope as they have been repeatedly beaten.
Perfect environment... for those of us waiting for Fills at out levels.
Empire State Manufacturing simply confirms what we have suggested
for some time - Global Economic Activity is collapsing.
There should be a dramatic drop soon, followed by a reversal to
New All Time Highs.
May profits be yours, they are here for the taking.
Patience, it's here.
3588 is the must hold level, 3798 is our preferred level.
roughly 3600-3800 is the desired Target Range.

NQ - How many Taps @ 15170 are requiredTECH is a messy trade, the APEs, Fanbios and Degenerate Gamblers
fail to see the structure, instead preferring to tout ATH after ATH.
Irrelevant with respect to the larger picture which has clearly formed.
The TECH Equities operate on Balance, TSLA is attempting to force a fill
that requires the 780s to trade.
Overlapping rotation from high to low end of balance.
Consolidation range for break is the Market Depth, there are subtle
nuances which clearly show the structure of the Distribution.
It does not indicate CONfidence nor steady... tight ranges of push/pull
demonstrate a LACK of CONFidence.
TSLA remains a prime example of what's wrong with Market Structure.
How is Tesla making new highs?
Traders are choosing to ignore placing the wrong trade at the wrong time.
Decisions are being made the Level is Long and yet the majority of the Volume
is symmetric and small.
The Profile is Long for a breakout.
The Balance is leading to excess.
It is as plain as day, right in the charts and OBV.
Tesla is simply exhibiting exactly the same setup as the NQ.
When the strafing begins, the Targets are always the opposing measured move
back to balance.
"The Markets will keep going up until the FED does something absolute."
Potentially, but not always.
This is what the Market Structure is exhibiting.
Momentum Buyers chasing big green bars...
This never ends well. Sellers are not running out of Bullets, they are patiently
buying time to participate in the reversal of VOL CRUSH.
This has happened time and again prior to key moves in prior quick, dramatic
corrections.
A look above, a head fake and fail.
The Potential is extreme.
D I S T R I B U T I O N
IWM - Get in gear DG's and bid this JUNK up.As Independent Producers are failing one by one....
The Gamblers continue to BID the Russell 2000.
When this fails, it will lead.
The declines in the RTY will outpace all other Instruments
including the distant 2nd, the NQ.
Patience, HUGE Trade setting up here.
$3.5 Trillion in "Build Back Better" No sooner had the $1.5 Trillion Infrastructure in free cheese been passed for the Kleptocrats
and they begin shoving another $3.5 Trillion Green Agenda.
Adding to Inflation worries while Global Supplies of the "Things we need" as coming up well
short.
Bonds - Perhaps the CPI is peaking here at 5%
Equities - Inflation isn't Transitory
Metals - We don't get fooled again, yet you did
Energy - The best thing to ever happen to Crude Oil, the Biden Admin
Here's the clue - Inflation trade is OUTPERFORMING.
NQ - One Enormous Range / ES YM RTY VIX Inversions.TECH continues to hold for now.
Large Divergences on the Daily TF have yet to take hold.
The Apex of the ascending wedge completes @ ~ 15323 inching
its way towards our PO @ 15363.
Equities outside of TECH can rise due to financial components
and favorable rate environments for Banks. NQ Bank a solid
indicator. ES RTY and YM are finding footing into higher targets
for YM - 35,900 and 36,700.
NQ would underperform.
The VIX Is quickly moving to its lower boundaries down to
12.30 - 15.47 on the Daily. Lots of naysayers to this, yet here
we are.
Interesting times, trade safe.
rty idea. not a trade I'm placing. just idea.Here is an example of a trade I find appealing to take because price has shown me several times that it is going to stop at the area below. It might not do it again now that it highly evident, but I like this type of thing a lot better than trying to predict the support areas. Price has clearly shown in the past that it will receive some buyer support at the 2226 mark. Why not play nice?
Non- Farm Payroll Front RunAAII Bullish sentiment Indicator @ All Time Highs.
ROC irrational optimism abounds - while sentiment remains
extremely negative @ 38%.
Housing Prices remain in an extraordinary Bubble with the 10yr
approaching 1% from YCC.
The ES SPY SPX Trend SLOPE is increasing.
USDX appears to be supportive ~ 92. A weak US DX will shove
assets higher within the Negative DX Trend.
A clear structure of the resumption of Down Trend as the Long
DX Trade which Specs chased is failing.
FX Pairs have clear bias to Higher DX, outsized, but not extreme.
Technical Structures across FX remain DX Bearish.
Yields are telling us Equities would move higher and yet the expectations
for the move higher was not met.

We remain Neutral into NFP.
