Trading System Signals on 07/16/2025

The market continues to aggressively support very narrow dips but quickly moves into narrow "dead range" price action as soon as the market is placed back to the prices from which it started selling. We have been very range bound all month in ranges similar to the summer of 2019. It is a flash back to pre-pandemic days so far this month which seems very "random" based on where we have been so far this year. The last seven days have been more and more rangebound.


Yesterday, the market seemed ripe for a technical pullback but the dramatic news cycle surrounding the Fed Chair changed the tone into a fast sell off and then fast recovery mode, pushing away any normal price action based on technical factors.


The V-Reversal did a good job on the short and long side but the market did not extend far enough and long enough to hit the profit target on the trailing stop loss version. The long side was profitable as well but exited at the end of the day with very little follow through to the upside.
