Almost reach 16000 and immediately return

As I stated yesterday, the market turn side near 16000. Upcoming the market will be swinging in short range. Hard to trade in short range.


However, I believe there aren't big retracement in this month. The big adjustment will be happened around the time US release the stress test result of the Financial institute next month. Then we better wait for next buying time. However need more time to prove my thinking

Good luck
