THU 3.21.2019 after Closing
8amET ECB News was not really moving price until 8:40amET after I saw a 'stop-run' @2813.75 as LOD on 30 Second Chart (yep, first time testing that time frame after seeing other members using it--don't think I would be using it LIVE though).
'Buying Spree' continued ALL day to new high @2866 but still less than 10 points from previous High--not really impress even though it's 52 points up from LOD.
What's really bother me was the 240M Chart that updated before closing. Why?
Price was moving up but WHERE was the Volume? Especially BUYING Volume; plus RSI was about at OB level.
Therefore, IF not breaking out of that RED Rectangle Range THEN expecting a "Fake-out" potential.
Feeling like a Trap because the new High was getting too close to the BIG Short!
Nothing else to do but to put on a SafeShort (remember how to do that, huh?); also taking profit from addSwingL2766 but still keeping rollSwingL2730.
P.S.
Lady Crude was hitting BIG target over $60 since 10amET but just playing 'ping-pong' in narrow range all day. VIX completed the Rollover, about to bust-out from consolidation at low.

WlyOpEX after Full Moon & FOMC Day
Wild Swing! Anything Goes! Train wreck! Nothing but 'explanation point' at the end.
Not that I haven't seen this type of moves before but the problem is WHEN? I can't remember--blame it on aging with short-term memory.
Nevertheless, it's opposite of yesterday with Pop2Sell through out the day at key levels.
Furthermore, quietly GMO.GetMeOut Selling since NYSE Open with a "Fake Signal' LTOD.LowTickOfDay -855. Why? Can't even break out above the ZERO line within the first hour.
As soon as 10amET @2831.50 Open broke to the downside, somewhat expected that 'go ES go' to the final target near T200%2804 of beABC triangle that formed since NYSE Open.
What about Volume? Hmmm, over 1 Million in NYSE session alone.
The next question is will the BO point @2803.25 be retested by SUN reOpen? There are obvious Setups with Targets on downside as well as upside.
What's NEXT? Ah, wait for next posting!

Nope, no finalized new version of Algos Setup Summary for the week...
Fairly new in using EverNote so I made a mistake when editing; poofs, 90% of the file disappeared in nano second.
Lucky me, I took a picture of a draft version... so using JING to edit as final version.
However, I am not holding accountable for TUE's section--such a mess!

Bigger & Better Trade was the beABC triangle @4amET hit T200%; then another beABC triangle in NYSE session hit T200% on the same day, FRIDAY
Pay attention to SUN/MON reOpen for trend, either direction; aim for higher or lower targets on ALL Charts due to WED T+3 EOM.WindowBreaking/Dressing; FRI BREXIT Deal/No Deal? plus GC cJUN Rollover, next week.

... after Closing
Neither side has given up yet; but selling were last week and buying were yesterday... Wednesday could be the "D" day if not decide by Tuesday.
Once break out, then there is usually no chance to Swing for a decent price level without being stop-out.
Multi setups were there, including my favorite; so just take your 'poison' on either side.
Is there downside target? Oh, yeah... would love to see a retest of @2767 'Switched2BullsLIS' break out point.
