S&P "Bull Trap" Negated As Sellers Lose Momentum
It's not exactly textbook, but whenever bears are able to punish markets they are quickly undone, often by a single day of strong buying.
Peak "Black Candlesticks" Again Offer Cause For Concern
With junior traders likely to be still holding the reigns after the long weekend it was worrisome to see 'black' candlesticks pop into the charts of the Nasdaq and S&P.

Friday offered itself as a solid day for bulls, the only thing it lacked was volume.

A bright start for bulls on the back of positive NVDA earnings wasn't enough to generate a day of meaningful gains. However, it did help stall the losses of the last couple of days.

It wasn't a great day for indices, particularly as volume ranked as confirmed distribution for the S&P and Nasdaq, with daily volume traded higher than any prior buying day.
Narrow Action For Markets Does Everthing But Breakout
There really wasn't much wiggle room for markets without delivering breakouts for the Nasdaq and S&P, but yet, markers managed to find them. The Nasdaq delivered a narrow day at resistance, but still no breakout.
Nasdaq And S&P Launch Another Attack At Resistance As Russell 2000 Struggles.
For the last couple of months, when buyers have had control of the Nasdaq, they have done so on bullish accumulation, but when bears have had the edge they haven't been able to control the story.

The Nasdaq was interesting in that selling didn't register as distribution, although it had already experienced 'sell' triggers in the MACD and On-Balance-Volume, with the ADX joining the 'sell' triggers.
