The bottom line, the short-term trend is down, not confirmed though. I closed the intraday short and longed before the close for speculation play only – betting the normally reversal of reversal of reversal.
Chart pattern wise, could be a Bullish Falling Wedge in the forming, so at least we could see some strength tomorrow morning (may test today’s low first though). On the other hand, bears finally get a lower low (well, barely), the question is: will it get a lower high to confirm a 1-2-3 Trend Change? That’s we’re going to find out for the rest of the week. Until then, the game is still, well, you know…
