good morning now today is Wednesday September
4th and we're about 30 minutes to open Bell in an hour away from the JOLTS job report so as
always I like to start my day looking at the dollar and seeing what's happening here because a
lot of things are affected by what the dollar is doing so right now it looks like we possibly
may have hit a turn on a higher time frame which measures me a which measures turning points on a
monthly chart if so after making a higher high, higher low I'm looking to see if we will
also come in at a higher low again but we're still in the kill zone so we were to
need to look at a lower time frame and see what's actually happening here. underneath the
128 time frame is a 32-minute time frame which is divided into quarters or fourths of the
above time frame and you'll start noticing that all these cycles and the Cycles
themselves are all cut into fourths. So looking at the 32 minute we see that we
in fact did make a higher high higher low structure which is kind of this break of Market
structure is sort of characteristics of higher time frame turning points which is price
inside of this Arc we call the Kill Zone. You should expect extreme volatility in these
times where Market structures seems to break down. Right now below 32 as a clue looks
like we did hit a turning point around 50% time and looks like we are dropping now
if we break below this turning point two area here price were to break down below
here then I would expect this to have been a turn and we should be dropping for the
rest of the day and holding this high of 101. 38 and this would be the clue that this Wick
probably came up only to fill this little fair value Gap and will be dropping down. So knowing
that we will take a look at the markets that we actually do trade. Starting again with the
NASDAQ we see on the high highest time frames we are dropping off a lower high Turning Point
9 which is below seven here nine is below seven and we made a lower low already with this price
action so looking at time frames above a month we are in a downtrend and I think we may be in a
downtrend in even higher time frames I can share a weekly chart later to kind of show you what I
mean however we do have to understand that market structure does give a big clue onto what's
happening especially day-to-day charts after dropping of one of the biggest drops I've seen in
a while from Asia's High uh Asia's close yesterday we came down four and a 4.3% even but we did look
like we got a rebound around 18.8 for the NASDAQ hitting our turning point for Target here and as
we're turning upward we know that turning point5 does come in the middle of our cycle so I'm
looking to see what the lower time frames are telling me to try to get a clue on what's going to
happen because as I mentioned we do have a large job report at 10:00 as well as some news around
9:45 but that's Canada's um new interest rates so looking at that time at about between 9:52 to
10:30 we actually have a Target to the upside now even though we did discuss earlier that all the
higher time frames are screaming down we have to be aware that patience does pay off is a virtue
that does actually pay because you do not want to be in the market too early to put too much
heat on any um short entries because there's a lot of liquidity to take out for anyone who has
been you know shorting the market over the last day so looking at that we could we
could close and get above this second Arc remember here's the Kill Zone
actually let me scale this a little better yeah once we actually close this
next 32-minute candle in 12 minutes we're looking to see how we react and get
above this first Arc and then looking at Targets maybe around this second
Arc here either the first or second around $19,037 and $19,013 somewhere
in between this range I'll mark out here we do have a possibility of putting in
an early turning point5 here this target was marking downside in case we do actually drop
down I could see that as well but as of now on Lower time frames we're making higher lows
and higher highs with three being with Target point four being above three and then after we
came up we have already Passover three so this tells me that the 8 Minute time frame which is
this one we have actually turned up and because we know turning point five usually happens in
this area this target here for time or even when London closes is all within the proper
Market spacing and turning point spacing for where we're looking for a high Target so as I
said I do see Confluence for a turn around 19 ,000 and maybe upper end 19,035 bucks which
would correspond with this upper Target here on the above time frame at $1 9,037 so if
anything that's where I'm looking for um the again the smart plays always trade in Trend
if you look over here on the OverWatch on the right side of my screen upper right side
you can tell that we are in down transitions on a lot of above time frames and downtrends but
we are currently going up so again I would be a little patient before holding any type of intraday
swing trade or a longer or a longer day trade but if you are looking to long because you have
another schedule to kind of get to I would just be scalping and that's probably what I would be doing
in the meantime just just seeing money and taking money right now on the 302 time
frame is kind of where I get a clue on what's bubbling underneath
we are currently in a retrace right now sitting above the. 236 we could
drop below this current level down to 18,878 maybe the next 9 minutes or so to 3 minutes and then begin our move
back upwards heading into the open Bell yeah but I think the smart trade will be to
wait till after the JOLTS job report at 10 o'clock and then short this Market let's see moving go to
crude oil we kind of see a similar story our time frames look like they are still screaming down
I put turning point 8 in here here but it's not necessarily having he not necessarily completely
set because we have not confirmed a Kill Zone we haven't made a higher high on the lower time frame
I doubt we would because of how high you know how high we' have to actually travel we'd have to
go up 7% so that won't be the clue here so we'll have to rely on some of these time targets like
possibly in 16 hours hours or six hours towards the end of the day we may actually be able to get
a little high above this Wick to put in turning point 5 if it's not already in we at the lower
time frame we need a turning point 3 here because turning point 3 typically happens in the last half
of the first quadrant and the front half of the second quadrant now definitely go into more detail
about cycles and the appropriate turning points another in another video you see we came up passed
through these arcs confirmed the Kill Zone made a higher high above turn point1 and right where it
says 21 that's a cube root calculation for time of a turn and we did hit that and then we passed
down and caught a little engulfing candle around 13 bars but only a lower time frame can confirm
if we already headed up I have two Targets on the 2 minute which is again a fourth of the 8 minute
I'm looking to see if we did turn at this first Target in 25 minutes ago if so that may start
building the higher low higher high structure we need to actually long back into this if if we
are to believe that the 32 minute is not in yet so I'm going to go ahead and look at the lower time
frame on the 30 second came down hit this area right here which is in between 32 bars at 50%
time I'm going to mark that as Turning Point 6 came up hit 25 bars here and this is the beauty of
the system because it really helps you understand where these pivot Points and turns are happening
so you don't have to guess which is the higher low which is the higher high that you should actually
be looking for um that actually controls the price action so we hit 7 here and looks like we're
dropping down to 8 for this uptrend to actually survive anything we will have to come up and
again close and move above turning point7 here so I'm not going to jump into any trades yet
because if we are still going up I'm not going to I'm not going to take what looks like a cheap
long here until I see some more confirmation because if we are going down which we could be
if we break below turning point 2 that would tell me that turning point 5 is in and we are
continuing down just show this we really could still be going down for maybe another day into
the 5th of September that's where the next Target is so as far as oil goes it's currently a no man's
land for trading in my opinion until we see a higher low on this chart here if the 30 second
makes a higher low I'll look at opening some scalps and riding this up but again so being so
close to the open Bell I still think it's smart just to wait because oh looks like we're breaking
down a little bit the oscillator starting to turn at the top of the screen again if turning
point six breaks here that means turning point 4 is not going to hold itself and we could
continue to drop a little lower before we go up that means the higher time frame
trends of the day and the weak are still going down so shorts are where the
smart money is and right now we saw four minutes before we can kind of confirm
the NASDAQ Direction at this time but looks like we are trying to bottom out here
close that .236 retrace from the morning low and if so I'm thinking we can go up yep go up for
about another 39 minutes to 39 bars which is 13 plus 26 here which I'm starting to see a lot of
Confluence for targets again all this changes if we break below 18,855 but as of right now I like
the higher highs we've made on all the lower time frames but I'm not going to be holding any longer
term trades on the long side right now for the NASDAQ and closing just want to let you
know no matter what it is that you're currently facing in your life for those who
wish to be liberated from all afflictions should really contemplate on contentment
the way of contentment is where Fortune happiness and peace reside so moving
into the markets try to keep that in a meditative heart stay humble stay patient
and let the profits come to you cheers
