Active traders that observe the price action should be familiar with the Algos behavior. The machines need a kick and direction. That usually news related impulses.
Today's fading was simply risky. But next week could be a different story. One can see from the chart that the market is trying to undo the last week weakness. It is forming a V-reversal indicating that sentiment has changed 180 degree. The momentum indicators are flashing overbought condition though. One need to wait for a sell signal first to confirm that the party is over.
