Trade Signals on July 6, 2026
Monday the market gapped up significantly. Often times we can see the market rally or melt up around holidays. The melt up can happen before or after the holiday. Sometimes during the less liquid holiday half day, when the stock market is closed, the bullish operators go to work to move the futures higher.
We saw the majority of the rally happen on Friday, July 3rd, the holiday half day. Last night the lows of the overnight session returned to last Thursday's close before going sideways.
Monday's session was a bit sloppy and lackluster but most of the stock index portfolios captured some gains.
