You appear to regard ES as made up of bulls and bears in the traditional sense of technical trading from days gone by.
It is as though all bulls are equal and therefore lumped together and the same applies for the bears.
Why not try to see the two groups as "those inside the loop" and "those outside the loop" and then decide who you want to team up with.
There is a slope divg in TICK right now with TICK sloping up while ES is almost flat, could lead to downside later once TICK turns. And it gets trickier since price is within the developing POC of a very elongated profile. :eek:
