US30 Closing first red day on the NFP dayHello traders and thanks for reading and supporting my idea!
US30 is actually building an interesting template and today it could complete a weekly pump and dump template. But to understand better the logic behind this template, let's analyse day by day what happened this week.
Monday, sets up the opening range of the week, the high low of the week is now in place and overall it was a dumping day as you can see during NY session time.
Tuesday expanded the range to the downside, closing back inside the range at the end of the day. That's our box of the week, money are lying above and below these extremes.
Wednesday nothing really interesting happened, considering that the price stayed inside the range almost all the day, slightly retesting the HOW just before the end of the day, closing the day in breakout, which is very important because now, breakout traders long are in the market and potentially driving this move.
Thursday consolidated almost all the day up high into the HOW, every attempt to break higher failed, eventually trapping the traders long in the wrong direction, stopping them out at the end of the day, closing the market as first red day and with breakout short traders involved.
Today, Friday, I can see the market placing a lower low into the low of day, which potentially reinforce the weakness of this market, and it's currently consolidating/coiling just below the closing price.
Overall, we are inside the previous weekly high low range, so I will be targeting the current LOW if the short scenario is identified.
As always, the template can give a thesis but a setup can drive the move, the following notes will explain better both the scenarios.

OIL: Day 3, market in breakoutLooking at this chart, I can see a great potential to complete a 2 weeks dump and pump scenario, which it can end up today with the OIL major red new on calendar at 10:30am NYT.
But let's analyse this market, trying to understand what and why specific moves can happen.
Starting from the last week, Monday was a dump day and Tuesday slightly expanded the range to the downside.
Most of the week just consolidated down low without achieving to push the price lower, and Friday it was the first time in the week where we could see the market pushing higher, breaking the high of day. It doesn't necessary mean that something was going to change in the market, but for sure now also long breakout traders are involved.
Friday as well, closed in breakout short, placing the new low of week.
Monday starts the new week and we could see the price retesting the LOW, is now important to understand the behaviour of price once the market reaches levels of interests and this double bottom formation into the previous LOW it may locks the low for the entire week.
Tuesday typically expands the range, which it happened and closed in breakout long.
Today, the market looks like coiling into the current high of day/how of week and I won't be surprise to see a parabolic move!
I currently have a better long thesis pushing up back into the previous HOW, however, I cannot guess how the market will behave during the NY session.
I cannot exclude that price can break down starting a reversal process during Thursday and Friday.
For the long view I would like to see the market coiling into once of these level marked
For the short view I would like to see a market breaking down, pumping back up into the HOD during NY session for a short scalp trade.
I will update the post during the day :)
Have a good trade and for any question feel free to ask!

4. THESIS:
Long: this is my main scenario at the moment, but let's review the current template to have a better understanding!
Monday triggered weekly breakout traders, placing a higher high on top of the high of the week, before starting dumping down into the previous opening range high (which is Monday's high of day)
Tuesday, the market mostly consolidated into the current low of week, attempting to push lower, failing and closing as a first greed day.
Today, the high of day and other time frames are triggered in the market, with major red new at 10am NYT this market can keep going parabolic, or eventually starting a 2/3 days of dump and pump to complete by the end of the next week the weekly dump and pump template.
Short: right now, a part for a potential 3 session scalp, I do not see any further down move for the day, it does not mean that during the week it won't build a short template. For better clarification, I will be updating this post in a daily basis.

4. THESIS:
Long: This is currently my primary view, Monday placed the opening range of the week, dumping down into the previous LOW, closing as well out of balance. Tuesday consolidated below the LOW, until it started breaking higher at the end of the day, placing a peak formation low in Asia session of Wed, which printed as well a higher high into the Tue high of day. Potentially this market is staring now the frontside move, and in this specific moment, the low of Asia, or closing price are the level I will be looking for a buy low, if a setup is presented after 8:30am CPI news release.
Short: I'm not really interested at the moment in shorting this market, however, the current high of Asia can be a level of reaction for a short scalp

4. THESIS:
Long: this is currently my main thesis at the moment, the market itself is still inside the previous weekly range, but in the new week is pumping higher making constantly higher highs and higher lows. Day 3 breakout traders long is a signal that depending on the template can explode in the direction of the trend or reversal. However, yesterday the market closed out of balance and today it can still keep going higher targeting the previous HOW, completing then 2 weeks of dump and pump template. Today, Asia placed a higher high into the yesterday HOD and is currently retesting the most recent low. FOMC and other news are in schedule for the day, but if the price will consolidated around the current level, I would be willing to take this long opportunity for 100+ pip.
Short: at the moment I'm not interested in the short scenario, unless the market will pump back up into the closing price of yesterday, consolidating for a short trade opportunity which I will consider only a scalp, eventually back into the current LOD.

4. THESIS:
Long: that's my primary thesis, let's analyse the current market condition.
- Monday opened with a huge gap breaking through the previous low of week, establishing as well the high low of the new week (opening range).
- Tuesday, it almost consolidated the full day, not really interesting in terms of trading activity.
- Wednesday, the market performed the first breakout of the week, breaking the HOW, triggering long traders in the market and closing out of balance (an interesting signal)
- Thursday closed again out of balance, long traders are potentially driving this move.
- Today, Friday, the market has good chances to go reaching and targeting the closing price of last Friday, why ? because traders shorting the beginning of the week are still in profit and stops are placed above that level. After PMI 10am, if the market will setup for a buy low opportunity around the current level (yesterday HOD or London low), I will be willing to take this trade.
Short: at the moment not really into this scenario, but however, the market could retest the current high of day, failing for a reversal, day 3 longs in the market it can reverse for major move, but I repeat, the current setup is potentially long!

4. THESIS:
Long: this is my main scenario, I can potentially see a weekly dump and pump starting from Wednesday, day where the market broke through the low of week and started reversal. Yesterday, Thursday, we can see a coiling, closing the day as an inside day and first green day, a potential long signal. After the equity opening at 9:30am, I will be willing to take a long setup if presented.
Short: this is my secondary scenario, sometimes we can see the inside day acting as a trading range false break reversal if the market will setup for a short trade.

Long: secondary, although I'm not looking for any long setup at the moment, the market can still retest the current LOD (placed in London session), consolidate and reverse for a scalp eventually back inside the opening range.
Short: primary, the market is currently breaking down, placing a lower low during London session and pumped back up into the previous LOD. If the market will retest that level (high of session as well), I will be willing to take a short trade back into the current LOD and don't forget that on the bigger picture it can also perform a 4 weeks pump and dump.

4. THESIS:
Long: primary, considering the dump of few days ago and the consolidation around the LOW, this market leads me thinking about a potential long setup, as well the first green day can be a good clue about that. However, right now is still inside the previous high low, means that other time frames are not involved yet, as well 9:45am PMI is on schedule!
Short: secondary, the inside day, however, typically can setup for both the scenario, so I can't exclude the HOD failing (in case it will be triggered), for a short scalp back into the LOW.

Long: secondary, I won't exclude the possibility for this market to setup for a long trade, the market performed a higher high on the HOW and started dropping, currently consolidating.
Short: primary, Day 3 long breakout traders, HOW, is most of the time a reversal signal, but considering the overall level and behaviour of price, before NY session start I can see more a pump and dump. Price still on the frontside, so I won't be looking for a dump all the way down back to the LOW, unless news release at 10:30am NYT will be catalyst.

Long: Secondary, although my main thesis is short, day 3 long breakout traders in th market is not necessary a reversal signal, it can also keep going pushing higher, especially on Monday which setup the high low of the week. Depending on how it will setup after 9:30am NYT (equity opening), if a buy low is presented I can be willing to take a long trade.
Short: Primary, the market is out of balance, in breakout and is consolidating after an interesting pump performed on Friday during the NY session. London session of today placed a LL into the current LOD, and if it pumps back up in the closing price or any other relevant level, I will be shorting NAS back to at least the Friday LOD.

Long: primary, three days dump and pump starting from monday, day 3 shorts and first green are a potential bullish signal. This morning the market broke higher, started quickly dumping back into the yesterday closing price, eventually consolidating during the whole London session. After the news I will be looking for a buy low on the CP or current LOD, targeting the HOW

After the HH, the market dump and currently consolidating below the closing price. Watching for buy low if it holds till NYO 9:30am

Short: primary, considering the overall template, although is Monday and typically not really volatile, I can see this market (if setup), keep going lower back into the previous LOW. The lower low (LL) with the further intraday pump could be a great clue of this movement.

Long: Primary, market reversing at the low of the week, day 3 short is a potential signal of reversing market. No setup yet has been identified, and don't forget that even if the reversal is possible, the market is still on the frontside down move, it can give a scalp, retesting the LOW for a better setup by the end of the week.
Short: Considering the current situation, I wouldn't exclude this market keep going lower if setups for that scenario. Eventually the market will place a HOD and locked it, I would be willing to short OIL after the news
