these are both the same updated 5 minute QQQ charts, one with a bunch of annotations and two opposing scenarios, the other a “clean” version in which to show how prices stopped cold at resistance earlier today, pulled back and have since formed a text-book bull-flag pattern.  the big question is will that pattern play out to it’s expected measurement (60.30ish area) or will prove to be a bull-trap, breaking to the upside to draw in more longs & stop out more shorts before reversing?  obviously, we won’t know the answer until tomorrow but something to keep on eye on.
