emini analysis 20th July 2017 – pre-open from Chartprofit
Please read previous comments. ES reached a new all-time-high on Wednesday and Aggressive Buying (green-at-top) was marked again. As long as ES holds above 2436.50, the 6wk poc, it is in a strong LT price location. First sign of minor dayframe weakness would be a Value Area printed below 2456.50, the minor (9day) poc.
First Level Support = 2436.50 (6wk poc)
Second Level Support = 2384 (5mn poc)
Sentiment: My version of the Rydex Assets Ratio was almost unchanged at 8.30, a 38day low. On 06/30 the ratio reached 15.21, the highest in the database. The ratio reaching a new high has historically been a warning for the market but currently the ratio is close to a 5 month low which is at 7.75. The market has rallied strongly for six days to a new high but the ratio has fallen, in the ST that is usually bullish.
