If the market attempts to break through the lower level and fails, a move to the other end of the range is possible and even likely.
The last couple weeks of every year are fairly quiet and this year was no exception. As we move into the new year we need to be ready for volume to pick back up and for backed up orders to flow in and move the market. We don’t know where the market will go. We just need to be aware that it has the potential to move.
Remember all that fundamental stuff above? Understand it and then promptly forget it. Be agnostic about market direction and focus on reacting to changes in price and volatility. What happens next is anyone’s guess.
