12pm update - ultimate uncertainty

From a trading perspective, Mr Market is trading in no mans land... too low to short.. but too risky to go long, with threat of much lower levels at next Tuesday's open. Considering it is opex, and with a 3 day weekend ahead, it is surely a case of sitting it out.. and keeping things simple.

Summary

The 60min equity chart is the 'best bounce' scenario.. which were one to occur, would now drag out into FOMC week.

However, it should be clear.. with the market remaining broadly weak, there is LOW confidence in such an outlook... not least as the bigger weekly/monthly cycles are both suggestive of the 1700s in the near term.

.. and yes, I'd accept that is a sit on the fence viewpoint.
