A third attempt to recover the June losses, perhaps the beginings of a more sustainable advance from a higher low?
As we saw recently, there is a major 'pivot' in the 3900 area which may well need some more working off, but strength above this area should unleash considerable buying power and the possibility of another attempt on 4175.

The T volume oscillator 1 made a strong Buy Signal in the days after the June low, with a 'w' pattern and a movement in the oscillator upwards through a steep cash build up line 2.
It looks like we are seeing a similar phenomenon since the reversal low on 14 July with a new small T, suggesting that there is a larger structure under construction.
Given the bearish price action of the last few months, we should look for the market to take out the previous high with strength.
When that occurs we should see a significant lasting move back higher.
We are therefore prepared for a recovery but still mindful of the potential for lower prices from this level.
1 The T volume oscillator is an indication of Buying Power within the market as a whole
2 The cash build-up line is a declining line drawn above a series of lower highs made in the oscillator.

The weekly chart shows the market attempting to hold support at the breakout level 3580-3620.
Further strength would suggest that we may now be seeing a final low and that there is a larger T under construction.

The monthly chart continues to show the collapse from the Large structures which extended the Mega Structure into 2022. Not much to go on but holding up above the June close of 3785 is a good sign with 4000 an important area to proceed beyond if the bull market is to resume.
…
2022 continues with price dropping sharply from the top of a range that has become increasingly expansive since the move above 2500. With price below the extremely volatile range from 4100-4600 we can only assume that this expansive price action will continue – in both directions – and that the important 2020 highs around 3385 and 3500 may still become the target. This is a Brave New World and we should trade accordingly.

Regardless of whether the market can move higher or whether significant lows are ahead of us, the simplicity of the proprietary price based S/T Signalling System will continue to keep us on the correct side of the market, currently indicating a Buy Signal since 15 July at 3828.
