The Yellow Flag Is Out

I’ve unfurled the yellow flag, since the E-Mini S&Ps died Thursday a tad shy of a Hidden Pivot rally target I’d drum-rolled at 2171.75. A feeble rally overnight missed hitting this minor benchmark by just 1.75 points, but that’s significant considering how clear the target was. Adding to the bearishness of the short-term picture is the agonizing, five-day struggle of buyers to make their way toward an ostensibly easy target.
