E-mini ES 2019/01/18

Bull gap, above HOY, 1W, W1P, fL2, H2, DB, DT, 1tF BT, bear CH, L2

there were probably sellers in the ETH at the 12/13 gap price, the magenta line (also the 50% retrace of the bear move from the ATH)
RTH opens above the gap price and those sellers probably bought back their shorts

daily chart
Always In Long (AIL) since 01/04
more up, but close just below the high of the Entry Bar (12/13) from the 12/12 LH,
classic location for sellers (Entry Bar highs and lows are support and resistance as well – 1tF EB), check out the numerous examples on the 5min chart

E-mini ES 2019/01/17

Bear gap, below LOY, fBO, T1B, XT, SC, 1tF BT, H2, 1CHBO, mW, fL3, BP

bears short and bulls take profit again at a re-test of the L1=L2 MM (2626) from the daily chart, but the move is smaller and weaker compared to yesterday’s move

daily chart
Always In Long (AIL) since 01/04
buyers at and below the bull trend line
the bear RVB failed
a gap close with 12/13 (we missed it by two points today) is also a 50% PB of the down move from the ATH
