emini analysis 20th April 2017 – pre-open from Chartprofit
Please read previous comments. During Wednesday’s session the three month poc migrated lower to 2341 (from 2353). Unless ES rallies back above that level it is in a weak price location. Overnight (I am writing this five hous pre-open) ES prints close to that level. At current levels I would want to see Significant Buying (green) marked above 2341 before considering the long side. Note: we have been monitoring 2334 as the 3month VAL; this level is no longer valid.
Sentiment: My version of the Rydex Assets Ratio was higher at 10.16 (from 9.26). On 1st March the ratio reached 14.02, the second highest ratio in the database.
Stocks>50dyma numbers: Nyse 46% (unch), Nasdaq 43% (from 40%), R2000 45% (from 43%). Numbers >50 are supportive.
