Update 12:26 EST: More new lows for ES emini without confirmation by $Tick that it could be intermediate term low. ES is currently in no mans land inside of the gap with all trend charts pointing down.
Euro looks like a bear flag, yet is right above 1.3348 ambush long from the recent lows.

Update 10:48am EST: ES trading up to 827.5 short ambush, watch for break above 828.5 to consider trend change
Update 10:43am EST: euro traded in 1.3387-1.304 fib confluence zone and found support, if that should fail watch 1.3348 level as 50% retracement and previous resistance that should become support.

Good Morning Traders,
some wild trading overnight, yet pretty predictable. After gapping up over long term daily trendline ES emini could not hold and pulled back to 833.75 ambush where it tagged it to a tick and bounced for 13 points, and then it started rolling over into US open.
Looks like we have H&S forming on smaller time frame, so watch for retracement to back to the ambush zone to complete the right shoulder:

The target of this formation is Gap fill and 50% retracement from Wednesday’s lows at 810.75 to the tick.
gapfill
If this does start to play out expect some support at 823 on the downside:

Good Luck and Good Trading this week
