emini 8th August 2019
During Wednesday’s session the 15mn Resistance at 2887 was tested. Pre-open today ES is printing just above that level. The low for this decline came on Monday and that was an Aggressive Selling day, so I call that a weak low because it is rare that a low of any significance occurs on a red day. The odds would favour a retest but Significant Buying (green) marked above 2887 would be a positive sign and negate that view.
Dayframe: a minor (7day) poc has emerged at 2855. Any dip in the ST should hold that Support if the market is heading higher.
Stocks>50dyma numbers: Nyse 36% (from 35%), Nasdaq 39% (from 38%), R2000 38% (from 39%). Numbers >50 are supportive.
