For weeks I've been showing our Day Trading Mastery Program members how powerful watching key market relationships can be. Below is the list of some of the recent rules / tactics we're looking at for knowing when the intra-day trend is likely to continue or reverse:

1. Currently, the IWM’s best represent the direction of the day
2. If EURUSD is moving significantly - stocks will follow
3. If TLT is up on fear – stocks will fall

Yesterday markets gapped higher, and the the DIA broke out of its multi-day range to new multi-year highs, but when it rolled over it was clear that there was big risk of the market topping out. As the market began to sell-off, everything was in gear for a big down day.

Look at the charts below and note how as DIA rolled over from the high of the day, the other 3 markets where already well ahead of it in moving in their respective directions that indicated the market was not ready. The lines on the chart represent the 30-minute opening ranges.
