​Stock Market Analysis Aug 24 2016

Major indexes move up yesterday. It quickly reverse down a bit. That is normal since there will be some who are selling when the major indexes reach a previous high.

​What is good is that major indexes have follow through to the bullish patterns in the 60 min charts which I mentioned in my past stock market analysis. Those of you who have been following my journey would have known it and we are all anticipating the breakouts.

Today is Wednesday and there are 2 more days till Janet Yellen's speech. Speeches by the Fed Chair can have a big impact on the markets and can trigger a gap down.

  • Oil is neutral in the 60 min charts. The presence of a large bullish bar in the 60 min may help oil to consolidate and form a box. Breakout above box will resume uptrend while breakdown will be bearish.
