 today. The following is a presentation of T F N N. The Traders Edge with Steve Rhodes. At 1 877-927-6648 or internationally at 727-873-7618. The Traders Edge. Now Steve Rhodes. And folks welcome to the April 22nd, the wonderful Wednesday edition of today's Traders Edge show. I'm Steve Perseverance Rhodes, who absolutely knows that each of us should always be pioneers of our future versus prisoners of our past. Hope everyone out there is having a great day. Let's make sure we have an extraordinary one and the easiest way to do that is to always remember that we're going to make that one little two by four shift. It means we can find the gift in every set of circumstance that life is going to toss at us. Now today you and I were going to go check on the circumstance of these markets. We're going to go figure out what those bulls and bears with those buyers and sellers are communicating to you and I just passed one o'clock in the afternoon. I want you to know that I'm absolutely grateful for your presence here, I'm here to serve you. So feel free to pick up that phone. You can dial in 877-927-6648 if you can't dial in. Well, we've got you covered there too. Go ahead, send me an email. Steve at tfnn.com inside the subject heading. Please put radio show question and of course our Tigers did. Well, any ping will do. So let's go ahead and get this show started on wonderful Wednesday. Of course, this is Tiger Financial News Network. I'm going to go ahead and get this show started. So we've got most of the indices in the green. The transports are the ones that are trading lower by about eight points. They're basically flat. The Dow is up 400 points. One and three 10th one and three quarters percent. S and P 54 2% to the upside Nasdaq 100 up 218 or 2.5% Russell's up 1% some eyes are up 4% they're trained out at 1656. They're trained out at 1657. You've got gold up 49 Buccarini 1736 of the print Silver's up 34 cents, two and three 10th percent to the upside trade out at 1522. You've got lights recruit up about three bucks natural gas up seven pennies 30 or Treasury down a little one tick and one point and nine 10 30 seconds out there right now trade out at 1829. So let's go to our first question that at the stage of the game is from Johnny and Athens and Johnny wants to take a look at Dunkin Donuts and Johnny is interested in I believe Johnny's interested in going short Dunkin Donuts maybe it's already short I can't tell for sure but the question is he's asking if we could confirm an A to B equal CD to the downside on the weekly chart. And so he's chosen so here is the weekly time frame chart and I believe I believe I grabbed the swing points that he's looking at now you've Johnny you've got the 7984 you didn't give me the dates and I can't really read the graphic that you sent in the chart there on my phone but I appreciate that. So what I'm grabbing here is assuming that you're using this swing point high this is the trading day of February 3rd or the week that began February 3rd so as your a point now the B chart are put in those are the lows from the week that began March 16th and that's 38 I've got 3851 you had 3863 so I again I don't know where our differences are my apology here but the question that he's asking is can I confirm that he's selected the proper swing points I believe you have so we have different values again for reasons I don't know out there but the question is and here's always the problem in the A to B equal CD pattern there is that C point so here's what we can say so Johnny to the extent that this is the pattern that you want to trade the beauty about the C point that you've selected which is the only C point that you would have out here for the A to B equal CD to the downside of the weekly basis which would be the high of the week of April the 6th out there the nice thing is is that you've got resistance at your back on that short trade so if you're going to use this and you had a hankering to go short of the C and K and then we can say that this made a point six one eight retracement are very close to it but you've also got the top of that weekly profile bear structured profile sixty one fifty three so if you've got that longer term view and that's all we're really taking a look at right here right now well when I say longer term view we'll call it an intermediate term view that being a weekly time frame then yeah I see it now we don't know if it's need to be equal CD to the downside price passes the actual B point or thirty eight fifty one or the low from March 16 there was a low thirty eight fifty two yeah it was March March 16th out there so here's what you do know from a weekly perspective as long as price doesn't close above sixty one fifty three bear a structure price will first work its way down to the center of its profile that's fifty three eighty six and in a close below that should or could set price down to test the bottom of that profile forty two thirty five you know you don't know I don't know where the price can actually move through that so now let's go take a look at Duncan Donuts a second what's going on on the other time frames out here now on the monthly basis prices below support that would have been the bottom of its profile that was seventy one fifty so that's not helping us or it's at least helping us from the standpoint the prices below support so this goes along the theory that Johnny has about trying to take Duncan on the short side when we look at the daily time frame chart right now we can see that price has been consolidating for approximately last five out of six days in between its daily profile there was one hit wonder which was the trading session of April 17th price closed above to remember when we see price close above resistance or below support we like to have confirmation the confirmation unfortunately is not the first candle we like to see two sessions consecutive sessions in a row to tell us that the move was not a false move now is there magic in the second session for me that's follow through doesn't mean that it works 100% of time and price doesn't come back no I can't control price but what I do know is these one hit wonder so to speak where they break resistance or break support out here they don't follow through on the second session it was a false breakout and that's really what Duncan Donuts have was a false breakout out here now what you do have Johnny is you have a bullish structured profile for the daily time frame the reason is because the center at 5598 is closer to the bottom at 5405 versus the top at 5985 out here so because price is up towards resistance you take a look at that weekly if you've got a hankering to go short Duncan Donuts and go for it out there but close out that trade if you well certainly if you have two bars that close above 5985 the top of the daily profile but really you're also looking at 6153 the top of the weekly will this turn into an a to b equal cd to the downside that I don't know now there was or there appears to have been a a to b equal cd to the upside which could be the Gartley sell pattern so let's go take a look at it so the a pattern here let's start with it it's going to be the low of the swing point but it looks like that's probably let's not do probably it's either March 19 that low is 3851 and we had 3852 yeah so it's going to be that low the day of March 19 that's your a point let's mark this thing here there you go your b point out here looks like might be the same price 5673 no it was the trading session of March 25 and your c point out here was April the third there's your one to one there's your Gartley sell pattern you know the problem that I have with that is well here's your confirmation of that it was this little gap right here the trading day of April 21st so you've got to confirm Gartley sell in Dunkin Donuts but you've got to crack 5405 we'll be right back if you're not currently using the Taz profile scanner when looking at setting up your trading

question this one coming in from HD HD says I took a long position in NGD this morning do you think you could make a run to the buck area the dollar area so NGD is a new gold ink out here trading out at 82 cents as we speak we take a look at the daily time frame chart out here we're going to see that the first A to B equals CD pattern there's really a couple of them that you could draw there's two A to B equals CD patterns that you could draw out here so let's take a look at the first one the first one out here HD comes off of the March 16th low 39 cents that moves up into resistance bear a structured profile out there that's on the trading session of March 19 that was at 67 cents and then price pulls back to where the bottom of the profile so here's the consolidation zone that it was in and your C point was March 23rd so the 1 to 1 level takes you to 77 cents price in essence hit 77 cents on April 13th or the following day so on April 13th you had a wide-ranging bar the very next day you had an even higher move out there that actually made it to the 1 to 1.272 and it did it with what kind of volume I don't know let's see it did it with 16 million shares and you're trading into that today HD with 3.5 million shares so this is going to struggle to perhaps struggle to get through this level but your question is can it make it to the 1 to 1 or want to make it to the dollar level well first with regard to this Gertley sell pattern it has not been confirmed what do you mean Stevo okay so one of the very first patterns that I learned was the A to B equal CD pattern so I appreciate the earlier question by Johnny about the A to B equal CD pattern out there cool pattern absolutely and then once I thought that I learned that pattern because I had the software to draw the A to B equal CDs out there I started taking I started selling every D point and buying every D point out there and was trading everything currencies that way just everything and then as the account balance started going down I had to say to myself wait a minute here this is a great pattern was taught by great individual you know him Larry Pesavento out there really was the one that taught me the Gertley patterns Tom teaches the A to B equal CD as well so really just putting those two together and what I have learned in my life maybe you've learned in your life as well as I end up learning more from failure than I do from success now that doesn't mean that I'm a good loser because I will I've got several little sayings that I don't always express them all to you but I will say this one you show me a good loser I'll show you a real loser out there so I don't like to lose out there but that just means I persevere I just get back up it's not how you get knocked down it is how you get back up so you can learn more from your losses so I then spend time going through and taking a look at why did the A to B CD pattern didn't work why couldn't I sell the D point I mean the market does 75% of the work for you does the A to B to see out there and then what I learned was Japanese candlesticks because that is how the market squawks walks and talks to Stevo out here because you take a look at a chart a blank chart and you see prices moving up and it gets past the one to one level or the 0.618 retracement or 0.786 or you name it whatever it is the reality is price is going to continue to move up until you see the cavalry until you see sellers how do you know if there's sellers out there well the easy way is they can't disguise themselves they leave a signature out there and so what we can say on NGD is there is no bearish reversal candle so the way that we can answer HD's question is even though price may be struggling to get through this little next swing point out here of April 14 because of the volume that it had there are 16.3 million shares and you're attacking it with much lighter volume today but still without any bearish reversal candle what we would say to HD is hey the 1 to 1.618 A to B equals CD gets you to 95 cents and the 1 to 2 would get you to a buck 5 and so the way that I would answer this question is until you see a bearish reversal candle those upside levels are in play out there so I hope that helps you out with regard to NGD now let's also take a look at for HD other resistance that he needs to concern himself with so we already know that volume today is very light moving into a prior swing point we can also see clear resistance on both the daily and the monthly time frames so in order for HD to get to the dollar level we can see that it's going to have to clear the weekly the weekly TAS market profile in the financial ointment last week was a test and rejection of the bullish structured weekly profile and it failed to close over that so what you really need to see this week got a couple more days is you really want to see price close back above the bottom of that profile it's 83 cents and we're trading at what about 83 cents so we're really we're basically right there you need to close above that level and watch 86 cents because that's where a counter trend rally could end when you get below the bottom of a bullish structured profile where you're looking to consider taking the short position here I know you're long but we're looking to take consider taking the short positions between the bottom and then the center of that profile out there you've got resistance at 89 cents so now you know yet no bearish reversal signal but you're late in the entry on this I believe and you're really running right up into some resistance levels out there so I hope that that helps you out with regard to NGD, Stevie and the A to B CD patterns look Japanese candlesticks the A to B CD pattern is I won't call it useless but it doesn't you don't have the full use of it unless you understand Japanese candlesticks now there's a lot of stuff on the internet and there's plenty of books out there on Japanese candlesticks a lot of it is wrong a lot of it is just dead freaking wrong out there it is amazing how much poor or bad fake information there is on the internet no no no that's not really the case out there and so if you really want to learn these what I like to do is I like to take decades worth of information and just boil it down into what you really need to know look there's 30 some odd Japanese candlesticks out there you don't need to know all 30 of them you might like that just for some kind of education but all 30 of them they're not all useful there's seven there's seven bullish and seven bearish candlesticks in fact if you learn one it's the opposite so I make that real easy I've got workshops I believe on my members page out there that'll teach you how to do that if you want and the thing is just like I say the A to B equal CD pattern is you don't have the real power of it unless you combine it with the market communicating to you with the bullish and bearish reversal candles understanding the bullish and bearish reversal candles won't do you a whole lot of good without having patterns to recognize could be the Chapman wave patterns could be wave number four D could be wave number seven the one that Stevie loves out there with Basil X to call the rogue wave could be my erodesment and indicator don't spend any time with that if you're not going to understand bullish or bearish reversal candles because you will get your arse handed to you just like I believe you will it's no different if you just buy every D point of an A to B CD or sell it on the way up there wait for the cavalry to arrive okay enough about that let's go I don't think there's any other questions at this stage here so let's go take a look at what the markets are doing let's try to understand let's try to interpret what the message of the market is right now we're going to do that we get back from this breakout here even though I think there's a few other questions that have come in but we'll first get to the overall market we'll do that for a few minutes or what have we have an hour long it takes and then we'll go to Wayne so just one question I guess Wayne's got a

We're actually going to go to Wayne's question next because everything in life happens for us. Well, our discussion prior to that break on the A to B equals CD pattern really fits right into taking a look at Shopify, SHOP. So let me actually read Wayne's question is, is shop a sale or sell, I suppose, or a buy at this level? What's the range out here? So let's take a look at Shopify in its daily time frame. And here's the A to B equals CD pattern that has a form. The A point out here is the low from April 18th, makes a run all the way right up into the top of its profile out there. That was on the trading day of March 26th and then pulls back. Price gets below that profile on April the second. That was a bullish structured profile, but Price was able to get back into it a couple of days later out here. But in any event, that marks the C point of the A to B equals CD. Now, as that B point was being passed, that was March 26th. That had volume of about 3.1 million shares. It was passed with 3.7 million shares. So we like to call that around these these parts out here a confirmed A to B equals CD pattern out here. Now, what we can see is Price was able to move through that move through the 1.272 level. Again, you're seeing all these green body candle. No, look, it doesn't matter. A green body candle does not necessarily mean it's bullish. And a red body candle does not necessarily mean it's bearish. That just tells us where the open and the close was so that we can visually see that here. But we can see or I can share with you that along the way higher all the way up until yesterday we had nothing but bullish candles. Now this made a 1 to 2 A to B equals CD. So for those of you that are going to sign up for Tom's workshop and you should, and you're going to get a autograph copy, I believe, of the art of timing the trade out here, I don't know the page, but there's a page out there that will tell you that when you do a 1 to 2 A to B equals CD wane, typically the market's going to do something else. Okay, so what is that something else? Well in this case here, yesterday was a bearish engulfing candle. It was a key reversal session out here. So you've got your bearish reversal candles. Your question is, is this a sale or a buy? It is definitely not a buy, right? Now, would you short it? You've got to take a look at the reward risk out here and take a look at other things, other signals. Is there some other resistance out here? Not that it's not going to pull back, but would you actually go ahead and short it or if you were long, would you prepare for retracement out here? If we take a look at the weekly and the monthly time frames, they're above all kinds of profiles out here, so they're above resistance. So now we need to bring over Stevie's other charts to see what else we have out here. So when we take a look at Shopify, we can also see that yesterday, so not only was it a butterfly sell pattern and a butterfly sell just, I won't go into it, but let me just simply call it the sell the D point of the A to B equals CD was also bar number nine of a TD nine count. Now, we can also see that Stevie's red line turned green about a half a dozen sessions ago and we know when that takes place, there's a phenomena that takes place and that is that price net line are going to catch up to each other. It doesn't tell us how, meaning price could move sideways. The oscillator change line just simply keeps moving higher price could pull back. It could be any number of situations, but the reality is the buy on this would take place on a retracement back to support. Support would be Stevie's green line out here. Now, this is trading at 624. And as you know, we've had very large moves out here. And the question is, if you're in this, it depends where you're in this, do you want to stomach the potential of 100 point decline? Right now, it would be 100 point move to come all the way back to Stevie's green line out there. And that is basically the range. So Wayne, would I sell it? If I was long, I would most certainly make sure that I had a trailing stop out here. The trailing stop, well, this has an average true range of 48 bucks. It's really 47 84. That's your average daily movement out here. And your stop, well, when you start to get to a sell point, you can tighten up your stop, just realize anything less than 47 84 is kind of dangerous because that's just the average daily movement out there. And you want to be stopped out by something that's average. So if you can't take the heat of $47.84 cents, I would back my profits now. And then I would wait for price, see if it pulls back, if it can test Stevie's green line, because a test and rejection of Stevie's green line is price pulling back to support. And that would be your next buy area into Shopify. So Wayne, thanks for the question. It kind of was nice because it fit right into the scenario there of the A to B equals CD pattern. So now let's go get to the market here. And I think this is going to answer really Eric's question. So let me read Eric's question, and then we'll go to the charts to help him out. He says, Hi, Steve, I'm in TQQ at 5425. Can you give me your thoughts on where you'd put a stop? So that's going to be pretty easy. We're going to answer that one. But then we'll go take a look at the NASDAQ itself and try to get a feel for where it is headed to. But TQQQ, come on, work with me, folks, we're on the air, not you, not YQQQ, TQQQ. And that is the long triple for the NASDAQ 100 out here. Your average true range on TQQQ over the last 10 days is $5.78. And you asked me the question, where would I put a stop? It would be, you're in at 54 bucks, okay, so you've got some room out here. But it would basically be 578 times either depends whether how aggressive, how conservative of a trader, I'll give you the conservative approach, $5.78 times 1.272, less wherever the close is today. That way you're giving it some room if you really want to give it room because you've got a belief that the NASDAQ is going to continue to move higher than what I would do is I'd use a 1.618. Now I don't know what 578 times 1.618 is off the top of my head, it's probably around 10 something as a guess, 10 to 11 bucks. So let's say at 11 bucks, minus 62 where we're trading right now, you'd have a stop around $51. That doesn't really work for you, does it? Because you're in at 54.25. So what do you do in that situation? Well, in that situation, it is what it is. In that situation, you either tighten up a stop, go to 1.272, you put your stop at break even at 54.25, but you're asking me where would I put a stop? Again, it's so important to understand what the last, I use 10 days, some people use maybe 14 or 15 trading sessions, whatever, whatever, find something that works for you. I like the average of the last two weeks out there to understand the average true range. Now let's go take a look at TQQ, let's go take a look at the Qs itself. Well, of course, let's begin that process by taking a look at really all of the equity profile, all the equity futures contracts out there to see where they are trading the relationship to their task market profile. So let's focus in on the NQ first. And here's what we can see. Yesterday, when we talked about, we were taking a look at some instruments and yesterday, we saw a close below support, the support of its bullish structured profile out here inside the NQ, the only one that broke through support yesterday. But that so far is a one hit wonder because today, now I don't know where the close is today, Eric, but if the close is above 85.61, that could suggest staying with your long TQQ, I say suggest staying with it. The real problem is on a bullish structured profile, when price does break it, if a counter trend rally is going to stop, where it's going to stop is somewhere between the bottom of that profile or the center of that bullish structured profile. So you've got to keep an eye on 86.62. That's only 30 points away from where we're trading right now. That could be the end of it. If price can close above that, well, then what you could see is move up to the top of that box out there. And that's 88.65. So Eric, you're in a situation out here. If this was just a short term trade, if I don't see the NQ close above 86.62 today, I'd be hard pressed to tell you to hang on overnight because of that average true range and the stop that you need to put in place. But you make the decision, and I hope that helps you out. See you both with TF&M. If you're in the CD market and looking for a secure investment, the Tiger First mortgage program may work for you. The security for these first mortgages are building lots in the tax opportunity zone in St. Petersburg, Florida. The Tax Act of 2018 set up tax-free zones across the country where you can build and hold for 10 years and pay no tax on the profits, which makes these lots valuable. The investment is anywhere from $30,000 to $75,000. The interest paid is 7% yearly paid on a monthly basis. According to BankRake.com, the best rate for a four-year CD in the country as of February 20th is 3.1%. A $50,000 investment at a normal four-year CD rate of 3.1% would give you income of $1,550 per year or $6,200 over the four-year period. That same $50,000 investment in the Tiger First mortgage program would give you $3,500 per year or $14,000 over the four years.

Distributor, foresight fund services, LLC. 421 and let's go out to Robert in Overland Park, Kansas. Robert, thanks for calling. Thanks for holding. How are you today? Great. Thank you, Steve, for taking my call. I was inquiring about GDX and I wonder if you look at GDX and normally you kind of look at the gold contract, but I wonder if you could just kind of stick to the equities and I'd like to get your thought on what would it take for you to change your position on GDX? I know that you've been bearish. What would it take you to change your position to more of a bullish or not on an intraday or daily, but kind of more of a I'll say, you know, the next two, three weeks, maybe intermediate time, right? So, but let's just let's just stick with the GDX picture out here, which in essence you asked me to do. And then what we'll do is at the very end we'll go take a look at gold that way. That'll help the folks that are looking for gold out here. So first with regard to GDX out here, what you need to see is you need to see a close above the candle session from April the 14th out there. And that high, Robert, is $32.27 and you're trading at $32.34. So watch today's action. Now the reason why I use that bar is price needs to close above that in order to maintain its bullish posture would be because a bearish pattern would have failed. And that was the TD nine count pattern. So bar number eight. And all we really saw here was kind of a, so you're either going to see when you get to the TD nine count, you're either going to see a change in trend, a little bit of a hiccup, which typically is one or two bars down and then a move higher, or you're going to see some kind of sideways-ish type move out there. And so this has been doing the hiccup sideways move. And if price can close above the high of April 14th, that would then suggest that it would go and continue to move higher. Now let me take a, that's a daily timeframe. Let's take a look at the weekly, see what we can figure out here on the weekly timeframe. What you're looking for is a close above the week of, let me get this out here. You're looking for a close above the week of February 28th. Now that had confirmed a nice big old rose momentum indicator top out there and price pulled back well beyond actual support out here. But if price can close above that this week, now that high is going to be 3184. I don't remember if that was the last one or not, but 3184 out there. Well then from the, then you will have had another bearish pattern or bearish resistance level fail out here. So that's what I would be watching for inside the GDX on a monthly timeframe. Let me take a look at it. Price now on a monthly timeframe, well it's continuing to move higher and do so with less relative energy out here. But I don't see until the next bearish reversal candle forms and really be more focused on the weekly and daily patterns out there. But this is just a caution sign with regard to the GDX. So that's what I see. Now you might be asking where would be the price projection out here on a move higher if price is able to take out that, that recent high. So let's go take a look at the A to B equal CD pattern out here. For the A point, we're going to start down here. This is the, it's a daily timeframe we're on. That's going to be the March 16th low. The B point we're going to use because this is where the next high forms before price really pulls back, and that's going to be March 26th. And then the C point is going to be the low of April 1st. So your one to one price projection is going to be 3403. So price is able to close above those resistance points. Then you know that the next price target area is 3403. There's no bearish reversal candle that forms as price up heads up that level. Then what you'd be looking at is the 1.272 expansion or 3703. So just sticking with GDX, does that help you out or help you understand what to be looking for and observe? Absolutely. That was very helpful. Okay. All right. So now let's go back to our gold question out here. And inside of gold, let's start off by taking a look at gold by seeing how is gold trading in all the major currencies out here. Today it's trading higher in all major currencies. And so that is helpful. Where is resistance on the daily time frame? Now, what I want to do here is I'm going to switch over from this set of charts, because this is using my synthetic version of the contract. And sometimes the prices are different or the profile levels are different. But this is so that I can incorporate a lot of data out here. Data is important, but we can switch over and take a look at the June contract. That's what I'm going to do right now. And I'm going to put up the daily profiles out here. So give me a second to just get that indicator going. Here we go. And as we take a look at it right now, so what gold did, what gold has been doing, it's been able to pierce, not pierce, but close below the bottom of that profile, which is 17.0660. What it hasn't been able to do, Robert, it hasn't been able to do it for two sessions in a row out here, because you close below it on April 17, then the very next day you close above it. Then yesterday you closed below it. Well, today it looks like we're going to close above it. So where price is trading into right now is 17.39. And that could be a resistance level. This is where both buyers and sellers believe that there's fair value inside of gold. So then what I need to do is or what I will do is let's go over and take a look at gold and its primary trading ranges. The primary trading ranges, folks, this is a tool that I was taught by Bud Rawls. Now I use my tool differently because I've been able to automate this. And so these lines here are all automated. The green lines represent weekly time frames. It is a weekly time frame chart we're looking at. And the red lines represent monthly levels. These are horizontal trading ranges. My system goes out and it takes look at as much data as I give it. And it does is identifies the largest area of co-located opens or closes. It doesn't matter whether it's an open or close. And then it looks for the second highest level. And from there we get our trading range boundary line. So what you and I know right now is that gold is trading with inside a range. And that range is the weekly horizontal trading ranges. The top of the range is 17.62. We saw price spike above that last week, but it closed below it. And it moved all the way down. So it tested the top of the range, 17.62. And it tested the bottom of the range, 16.95. Now what price is doing, it's traded right into 17.40. That's a resistance level. That's your monthly horizontal trading range. If price can't get above it. So you now know you're at resistance in gold. The center of that daily profile and the monthly horizontal trading range level out there. But if price can get above both of those areas, then what we'll be looking at is move back to that 17.62. To the downside, if you see a close in gold on a weekly basis, we'll have to call them two weeks, two close blows, 16.95. Then that tells you that last week's high was the high. And that we will likely see gold heading lower through the end of the year. That's my take on gold. Does that help you out? That was super fantastic. Thank you so much. I like super fantastic. So glad to help you. So you got the GDX. Now you know we're taking a look at the gold. Which of the two are going to be the drivers out here? I don't know. I don't know. But you got to keep your eyes on both of them. You know what also is nice to hear is you sound like you're fully recovered and you're doing well now. I have. I'd like to get a test, any blood work test, just to confirm whether I actually had the symptoms. So that's for sure. Although my toes didn't turn blue. I saw some doctor yesterday said, you know, if your toes turn blue, that's a pretty good indication that you had it. But you know, the testing isn't widely available for somebody like myself right now. That doesn't have the symptoms. So yeah, I know about the give blood thing. Mr. Bill, and I've been looking around for that ban to consider that. But Robert, yeah, I'm back to normal no matter what. So, hey, we're going to a heartbreak here. Thanks so much for calling. Hope all that helped. And I look forward to speaking to you again soon. All right, thank you. You bet. That was a 450 S&P 62. We'll be right back.

Back up folks. So one of our dinners wanted to take a look at Square. SQ is the ticker symbol out here. It has a confirmed A to B equal CD to the upside. Your one-to-one price projection would be $69, $1 to $1.272, $76.57 out there. You're running into some sideways action and it was really started here even though price got above the profile. This little shooting star that formed on the trading session of April 9th and then a couple days later we had this little bullish structured profile that formed. So you've got resistance at 62, 68. You don't because it's a bullish structured profile whoever had requested this. You don't want to see a close below $55.90. Below $55.90, that's a problem. We've got a new weekly profile that formed. It's above price. That's bearish. And so just be careful out here. You've got that confirmed A to B equal CD to the upside. You're in a little bit of a congestion zone out there. And inside the den asked about where's the price target for the ES mini. If we take a look at it, here's your rogement of indicator bottom patterns that were formed. Those lows held throughout the day yesterday. And so the upside price target is your major resistance level. That major resistance level for me is $2807.75. That is where on a 30 minute basis the ES mini had broken down. Price can't get through that. If you are able to get through one level, you go to the next level. That next level will be $28.52. Although I would switch over to the 60 minute time frame chart to understand where resistance is. Why is it that price may be able to get up there? Well, one of those reasons would be let's go take a look at the spot follow utility index. And right now it is trading below its 50 day exponential moving average. That is priced at $4,280. The spot mix is at $4,179. Watch the close there. The spot fix index can regain and close back above that 50 day number. Again, that is $4,280. Then this would suggest that today's action was just a countertrend rally. It still is a countertrend out here. But if it closes below, it could have more upside move. Where would the upside move be to? Well, inside the ES mini, it could be up to $28.46. Inside the Dow, $23,967. And in the Russell, $12.65. I'm not saying that's where price is headed. Price has to take out resistance levels first. And we took a look at the one for the 30 minute timeframe. Folks, thanks so much for being here. Stay tuned. Two more great hours left, and I look forward to seeing you on thirsty Thursday. Have a great day. Be safe out there.
