Here is how the price structure of the S&P 500 could look like if the low in May 2022 marked the market bottom without the market capitulation based on Wyckoff trading method and market breadth.

The bullish setup vs. bearish setup is 441 vs 35 from the screenshot of my stock screener below. This is a significant change from last week where lots of the stocks participated the rebound.

For trading tactics, aggressive traders could look for deeply oversold technology stocks or the leadership stocks in the oil and gas industry group. Bear in mind that a counter-trend rally is generally risky not to mention about the elevated volatility in both direction, which could whipsaw the bull and the bear.

EUR/USD regains momentum and trades with modest gains around 1.1370 ahead of the opening bell in Asia. The pair sets aside three daily declines in a row and picks up pace on the back of the lacklustre performance of the US Dollar, particularly after US data failed to reinforce Fed rate hike bets.

Gold reverses part of its recent weakness on Thursday, managing to reclaim the area just above the $4,000 mark per troy ounce.

Bitcoin (BTC) hovers around $62,000 on Thursday, recovering from a brief dip below $60,000 the previous day.

Micron prints perfect, and now the chart has to answer

Memory’s biggest name just delivered the cleanest quarter of its life, and the most interesting thing about it is that the stock isn’t sure what to do with it. Micron closed out fiscal Q3 with revenue of $41.5 billion, up 346% on the year, a fifth straight record. Gross margin came in at 84.9%, up from 39% the same quarter a year ago. Earnings landed at $25.11 against a Street sitting near $20.49.

Regime change: Inside Kevin Warsh's first move to make the Fed unreadable on purpose

The rate did not move. That was the least interesting thing about Kevin Warsh's first meeting in charge of the Fed. The FOMC held its benchmark at 3.50%-3.75% for the fourth straight meeting, exactly as priced, and then the new chair used his first press conference to dismantle the machinery the market has leaned on for a decade.
