Trading System Signals on 04-01-2026

My biggest disappointment today was that there was no short signal in the afternoon on V-Reversal to capture the strong reversal lower. The reversal pattern was stealth enough to fly under the radar of a short signal that would have been beneficial. V-Reversal had only one trade today.


In the previous 4 days we have seen afternoon extensions while today, the market initially looked as if it would continue to rally, had a strong reversal going into the President's 8pm speech tonight.


The speech didn't provide any real new information or specific details and re-iterated general uncertain goals without knowing the oppositions objectives or clear agreements. Crude Oil surged 4% since the beginning of the speech and equity indexes are off about 1%.


Its the type of market where the Nasdaq could be off 1000 before the holiday weekend or up 1000 by the close. Friday is the Good Friday holiday so tomorrow is the last trading day of the week for our strategies.
