Big week ahead and sadly I will not be in front of the screens as I will be on vacation for a few weeks. My internet access will be limited so my usual updates will be sparse.
Please like and share if you appreciate my work. Thank you.

Comment:
Here is a look at the bullish harmonic I mentioned in the post. I am not likely to take this as a trade. I pay attention to it however, as it reminds me that a bullish reversal is possible in the green zone despite all the negative news. Also worth noting that a break below the red box would be very bearish. Harmonics that fail often lead to trend continuation well past the X point.
