News Flash: The Market Is Up

Our diary is going to be short tonight. Almost as short as the days are getting.  Hello late October!

The major news flash to report is that the market was up today.  Cough!

Jobs report gap up launched higher and turned bait at 7:30 and R3 for a HOD print.  And our rule is to watch the hell out as reversals, at these floor trader pivot levels can really pack a punch. Especially rare are R3 touches in the 1st place!

And right on cue the liquidation to range lows printed.  The kicker was that it printed a stop running excess tail, minor low of A period. Oh those minor lows!

On cue, the buyers came back in at the minor low and ground it higher back to near range highs.  If it were not a raging bull market, a morning mechanical rejection at R3 would have most likely killed the market today.
