As the holiday week unfolds, we wish you gifts of peace, goodwill, and perhaps another year where AI doesn’t claim all resources and leave humanity in the dust. Amen to that.

Now, onto the charts. In today’s hourly ES action—tracking the 24-hour S&P 500 futures—we’re watching a triangle forming between 5930 and 5950. This convergence is leading directly to the “Dick Trickle Memorial Point” around 5945 at 1 PM ET. A breakout from this pattern could drive a sharp move, though a slow trickle out is just as likely if conviction remains low.

Here’s what to watch:

  • Upside Breakout: If the triangle breaks topside, expect resistance around 5975-80. Clearing this zone could push the next resistance level to 6025.
  • Downside Breakdown: Should the triangle break down, 5923 will be the key support. A failure at this level opens the door for a potential drop to last week’s lows.

Markets can be unpredictable, but this pattern offers clear markers to guide your strategy.
