The NASDAQ 100 continues to lead US stocks during the consolidation phase; consolidation is defined by sentiment and & VIX models (see Matrix). Disciplined traders following energy wouldn't be surprised to see 2019 mimic recent history. We're watching DI & DI2. Anticipating what will happen is impossible. Reacting to what's happening, understanding it's bearish and bullish implication is not. Please follow these trends in the Matrix.
