July has been a great month for the <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3cQWUuE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">S&amp;P500<\/a> since the lows of the GFC in 2009. Whereas August has not been so good, with 7 of the last 12 being negative months.<\/p><p>Q2 year over year earnings in 2021 are expected to be up 89.8%. Of the 296 companies in the S&amp;P 500 that have reported earnings to date for 21Q2, 88.5% have reported earnings above analyst estimates. With good earnings should come better stock prices. However, the markets are future looking, and the narrative currently is that companies are doing well, though there is an issue with supply chains, bottlenecks, not enough employees, and the Coronavirus variants, which are all going to make it harder to do business the longer this carries on.<\/p><p>The amount of money that has flowed into the stock markets from the <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3wIwSRV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">US Treasury<\/a> is massive and around the corner a further $500bln of new money is being proposed in the $1trln Infrastructure Bill. This fiscal spending is also going to help the stock market\u2019s overall as the US economy grows. What we need to keep an eye on is how much the new US Administration takes out of the economy through new taxation or cancelling of fiscal programmes. If what they take out doesn\u2019t amount to more than they are looking to spend, I see the S&amp;P500 etc. rising further.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section

If you draw a box around the candles that form in this period, you have a range where most of the trading volume is done for the day. You also have a gauge to whether the new day is above, below or within the previous days range. From the chart above it is easy to see that the market is trending sideways and that a floor is being made for the Nasdaq around 14,800 with a ceiling around 15,100. Until price escapes beyond either of those levels the chances are the trading will be range bound, which is great for mean reversion strategies but terrible for breakouts and trend following strategies.

Today\u2019s IB formed after the ADP figure and the US Markit\/ISM PMI data. It also encompasses Fed Clarida\u2019s speech which means there is little more news today that may affect the Nasdaq or S&amp;P500, so with that in mind, if we haven\u2019t been able to breakout of the IB with all that data, there is little probability that today is a trending day.<\/p><p>To further help you decide on whether to buy a breakout or sell a breakdown of the IB rather than fade it back to the midline, plenty of traders and investors have done statistical analysis on the probabilities of a trending move following on from a breakout of the IB.<\/p><p>As an example, over a period of 2,823 trading days, 95.36% of the time the IB High or IB Low was broken during the regular trading hours (RTH). The RTH is the US session. There was a 60% of the breakout reaching 50% of the IB range above or below the breakout line, within the days RTH. With 30% of those breakouts making a measured move higher or lower during the RTH.\u00a0<\/p><p>If you were to conduct your own analysis on the last years\u2019 worth of trading, you may find that these stats still remain relevant, and I certainly used the notion that if I were to trade the breakout that I aimed for at least 50% of the IB range and didn\u2019t put too much expectancy on getting a measured move.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-c7f4b40 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"c7f4b40\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-0fd76c5\" data-id=\"0fd76c5\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-66d18b5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"66d18b5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3vFKHQ2\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"544\" src=\"https:\/\/youtrading.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Measured-Move.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-13117\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-54ef31c7 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"54ef31c7\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-13c746e2\" data-id=\"13c746e2\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6d1ad34 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6d1ad34\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3vFKHQ2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">See real-time quotes<\/a> provided by our partner.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-2b48264 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"2b48264\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-5023f9d\" data-id=\"5023f9d\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e706c13 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e706c13\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>Using today on the <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3vFKHQ2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nasdaq <\/a>as an example, the trend over the last few months has been for the Nasdaq to trade higher. I have already described the current action as being sideways, so any breakouts to the upside are most likely to get faded back to the mean.
