Not the trending day setup was influential and produced fresh noon hour lows, which reinforced its reliability. That reinforcement has gone on to produce even more sharply lower lows. Friday…
The A.M. renewed bias-down never produced a fresh post-10:15 low. It was also never rejected, and until then, the pattern remains vulnerable to producing fresh lows. Which it’s just now…
