Inverted hammer could be viewed as bullish, daily MACD trying to turn still. But why do they need so many days to turn 

the market ? Consolidations usually resolve in the direction of trend.

Every bull is banking on that inv. H&S pattern to pay off, what happens if it fails ?

Last week printed a new sell, seems like with MACD turning down at zero, need a new low at least first like in 2016.

I'll never understand why what happened today was necessary if the goal is to take the market higher, I mean why one more down ?
