SHORT-TERM: COULD PULLBACK TOMORROW, BUT HIGHER HIGH AHEAD

The market has chosen to go Bear Flag or Rising Wedge, so let’s see if it could decisively breakout the green line in the chart below.

Two conclusions:

  1. Most likely red tomorrow.
  2. More up ahead especially if red tomorrow without higher high first.

The chart below should prove why most likely a red tomorrow: NYMO is way too high, there’s only 1 exception in the chart the next day was green.

NYMO

Tow charts below are arguing more up ahead. They basically are the law of inertia, a strong push up like we had in the past 2 days seldom fail right away.
