emini futures 8th October 2018 – pre-open from Chartprofit
ES spent the first three days last week above 2927, the 1mn poc, see last Monday’s highlighted comments. Wednesday’s session opened below that level and there was a quick decline. Thursday and Friday generated Value Areas below that level.
Support/Resistance levels have also migrated due to price action at the end of the week. The 2mn poc is now at 2906 and that is First Level Resistance. The 3mn is at 2858.50 and that is Support. Price printing time below that level would be a further indication of weakness.
First Level Resistance = 2906.0
First Level Support = 2858.5
