Energy stocks dominating the watchlist again tonight, with multiple moving to new high today, and continuing to be the strongest groups in the market currently. The other group theme was gold miners appearing again.

S&P 500 with a gap opening at the top of the range on the intraday 2 hour timeframe.
So little test for you:
1. What Stage is it in on this timeframe?
2. What Wyckoff Phase of the base structure is it?
$BROS continuing it's bounce, and now through the 50 day MA, with a potential move into Phase D of the intraday base structure.
Watching to see how it reacts on the pullback within the base. i.e. will it hold the 50 day MA. As a move back below could flip it short term short.
Ethereum getting some follow through from Mondays potential Selling Climax (SC)
S&P 500 hitting resistance at the 200 day MA ahead of the fed meeting later.
I decided to go short after the fed announcement on $AFRM. Got in at 58.83 and looking for a test of Mondays low.
It is making some quick progress. So have moved my stop loss to breakeven incase we get a sudden reversal.
Update:
Covered it 55.87
This was the first new trade I'd done since going to cash on the 5th January in the short term account. A good quick 5%+ performance booster type trade.
$LCID finally breaking down too after a weak bounce from Mondays low.

Different kind of watchlist again tonight with the volatility from the Fed today
$TSLA had earnings after the bell and holding up so far despite an initial negative reaction after hours. So will be watching for it to recapture the 1000 level and move back into the range. Failure to do so, would a make me consider it on the short side.
$KSS - another stock in two minds with a double top pattern at the highs of the range after Mondays big gap move on news. Looks to be faltering, so potential for a gap fill.
If it can hold then would be looking for reversal back through the November high.
$MATX a new one for the watchlist with a Stage 2 continuation breakout attempt in Phase D of the base structure. Failure to follow through and drop back into the base could flip it to a UTAD.
$MDRX Highlighted in the watchlist yesterday, but held up well today with a tight range and only closing down -1%. So watching for a fishhook pattern (i.e. reversal higher)
$CF I did a video yesterday explaining the fact that the breakout attempt from the intraday base was early and hence might be an upthrust. So pullback to the support level today puts it in a better position now. Needs to hold above the 50 day MA and tighten up.
$CF here's the updated 2 hour chart with the Upthrust (UT) from today's price action added. Note how it closed at the Volume Point of Control (VPOC) on heavy volume. Want to see it hold that level ideally if considering long or could turn into a short.
$AVT from the watchlist with an earnings gap Significant Bar developing
$LCID continuing the breakdown move. A test of the 200 day MA looks a possibility.
Energy, Consumer Staples and Materials sectors leading in the early trade today
$MDRX from the watchlist attempting the fishhook pattern in the early trade.
$TSLA testing Mondays low and 200 day MA test looks a possibility.
$FNGD FANG -3x etf firming up
$BLL with an Earnings Gap Significant Bar today back through the 50 day MA potentially forming Phase C of the base structure after a terminal shakeout prior to earnings.
$BLL the weekly chart shows the bigger base structure which is Stage 3 or Stage 1. But either way within 5% or so of the Stage 2 continuation breakout level.
Markets attempting to firm up going into the final hour. Noticing treasuries starting to breakdown from the range it's been in intraday.
$AAPL initial move in the after hours following earnings is to the upside. Up around 3% to 165 ish

AAPL with earnings after the close. Initial reaction has been positive and gapping slightly above the top of the range in the after hours trade. But watching to see where it opens tomorrow as it is a significant stock for the market.
$CF showing good RS versus the market and testing the near term resistance at the 70 level
Update: [10:21 EST]
Trying this one on the long side at 69.60
S&P 500 intraday range. Chance of a Phase C developing, with higher low, local spring.
$MDRX from the watchlist holding up in the upper half of the Significant Bar range so far.
$GSL potential weekly engulfing candle if it can close near the highs today.
Marine Transportation has been one of this wks leading sectors with multiple stocks up over 10% and with around 1/3 with an RS rating in the top 10% of the market. $DAC is one of the strongest in the group, but currently in double top range. So be watching for a backup to develop.
$FICO is a new one for the watchlist today with large earnings surprise of $3.70 EPS vs $2.66 EPS estimate. So is putting in a Earnings Gap Significant Bar on strong relative volume.
$MA and $V with Earnings Gap Significant Bars (SB) today. MA showing better RS as it is already through its 200 day MA, but both moving into resistance zones. So I will be watching how they develop around the SB in the coming days.
$ZIM also in Marine Transportation group with the strongest RS overall. At potential double top resistance. So might need to back and fill a bit. But not extended as under the +2x ATR level. So room to move higher within the normal range still. Bullish engulfing candle on weekly.
$CNXC double bottom breakout attempt. But stopping at prior resistance, so could need to back up and tighten up a bit.
If the todays market move does get some follow through next week. Then beaten down growth stocks at Undercut & Rally areas like $AFRM could have strong reaction moves back towards resistance and short term MAs.
