emini analysis 23rd January 2017 – pre-open from Chartprofit
The four month poc at 2265.00 continues to attract time, see chart. Price relative to this level is important to monitor and could be Support or Resistance intraday today – pre-open today ES prints just below that level. There has been no significant Buying (green) or Selling (red) marked for twelve days and this lack of directional commitment has resulted in overlapping Value Areas, see chart. If ES is printing above 2265.00 it is in a strong price location. Significant Selling marked below that point would be a negative.
First Level Support/Resistance = 2265.00 (4 month poc)
Second Level Support = 2159.50 (6month poc)
Sentiment: My version of the Rydex Assets Ratio ended the week at 10.74. On 01/03 the ratio reached 11.83, the highest ratio since June 2015.
