Thursday’s session opened sharply lower and an early probe up into First Level Resistance at 1965.25 (1/R off last year’s high) was rejected. The Value was generated below this level. Pre-open today ES has printed back up towards this level. Second Level Resistance = […]

Technical analysis – Market pre-open 6th January 2016 See yesterday’s highlighted comments. Tuesday generated a higher Value Area but overnight ES weakened again and as of thirty minutes pre-open has printed as low as 1971.25.

Price around 2067 may attract time. Dayframe: the minor (22day) poc is at 2052.00. Price relative to this level may be […]
