Settling Unfinished Business

Sellers gained quite a bit of confidence yesterday.  The day started with responsive selling into the overnight strength which morphed into initiating selling for the rest of the day.  The session ended up printing a new swing low and solidified the seller control on the intermediate term timeframe.

The long term timeframe is still buyer controlled in the NASDAQ composite even through this selling.  This can be seen as a series of higher highs and lows on the weekly chart.  We are watching the market follow through this week on an outside candle print two weeks back.  The outside candle print often occurs near inflection points.

The intermediate term is seller controlled.  I had to rebuild my volume profile back to November 25^th to get all the data needed for a proper composite profile representation.  I have highlighted some key levels and observations on the following intermediate term volume profile chart:

The short term auction is seller controlled.  Value is being pushed lower and prices are testing lower into areas of unfinished business (naked VPOCs).  I have highlighted the key levels I will be watching today, as well as a few scenarios on the following market profile chart:
