{quote} hawkish FOMC Meeting Minutes today will likely result in a test of the high near 125.2 {image}
Agreed. Not expecting much from it though. The run up we had before was PRE FOMC, so with little follow through afterwards, I don't see it going that far on minutes. I could be wrong though, but the hike was expected thus the early run up, and then we had FED testimony, so I think we may have all the news already.

According to what i see, bear train has started moving! No further upside move except possible fake out move during FOMC minutes (which i really doubt)
So no fake up move by Fomc so I can bet we are starting wave down, but I could be wrong too, this pin bar can mix something buy Im hoping not, cheers!
Edit By now this H4 candle doesnt look good but we have one more hour to change this

We just hit the resistance set by the FOMC minutes pin. I don't think we will break that level yet though. Tomorrow we have important news in the morning. I believe we will range until it comes out then revisit the top of this range before moving down. If we break it before the news however things will be interesting to say the least. Novice bulls are still out there. You know those of us who second guess the trend until it is almost over then try to wish it higher? (We have all been there I think). I will be watching the minutes before the news to see where price runs to and will counter it. IMO we need a stop hunt to the top before we move down. Let's see.

Wave 2 was long and flat, so if the rules are followed this wave (4) should be sharp. As long as we don't bump this lower high off that 125 this is a classic Wave B of a wave 4 ABC. IMO that is..

Looking good so far. Unemployment news had little effect. FOMC even less. As long as this lower high is held we are within perfect pattern ranges. I am fading the wave B off of what I believe to be the termination of a wave 3. Wave 4 is usually an ABC formation. An ABC formation ends below the A level when Bearish and above it when bullish. Areas to watch for possible consolidation or additional trades circled.
