this was a perfect normal distribution day, a late excursion to the lows at “k” period was followed with a movement to the center of the range in responsive action. After a day like this we can expect more indecision for the next one or a more directional day. As we were in a short term uptrend, August 31 could be the end of the up movement and start some lower trading.
The complete profile for today activity(sep 31) was a double distribution day:

The market created value at the highs during the first half of the day. Then, the sentiment changed and market moved lower, market formed value in the lows accepting the new levels.
As the jobs data will be released tomorrow longer term investors don’t want to keep their long positions in front of it so they close them making the market trade lower.
