Maybe: Could be either way: mucus is a v-e-r-y nonspecific finding, i'm afraid it doesn't tell you anything for certain.

Have sex: Older women ovulate earlier and will see cervical mucus thinning and becoming copious earlier in the cycle. So, start early in the cycle having regular sex.

Mid cycle: This type of mucous is a function of estrogen levels and is called estrogenic mucous. It is most evident right around ovulation or in the middle of the cycle from days 14-18.

Is it possible for me to still have egg white cervical mucus and not ovulate?

Yes: Ewcm usually accompanies ovulation, but many women don't notice it at all. Mucus is a very "soft" non-specific way of detecting ovulation. If you have mostly regular periods each month, you are 99% ovulating during those cycles.
