Last night's non-farm payroll data was hyped up quite a bit, but it didn't make much of a splash. The market just went through a "flash crash" type bottoming process, now lying low and gasping for air, oscillating with small steps forward and backward. Daily chart: Yesterday closed with a large bullish candle, like a bubble emerging from dead water, but the overall trend of the river still flows downward, unchanged.
MACD hourly chart: DIF and DEA lines are both below zero (negative), and DIF is below DEA, indicating that short-term bears are still in control.
MACD daily chart: Bearish momentum (green bars) has slightly shrunk, but don't get excited—it's still far from a "counterattack signal."
RSI on the hourly chart is at 54.7, neither hot nor cold; the daily just slightly lifted its head, still weak. The 7-period moving average on the hourly chart is barely supporting the price; but on the daily level, the 120-day mountain is still far above, pressing down.
Don't be fooled by the bullish daily candle into "bottom fishing." Before the market chooses a direction, the safest strategy is to "draw a line in the sand."
