emini analysis 6th April 2017 – pre-open from Chartprofit
Wednesday’s session represented a rejected probe above 2367 (which was the 2month poc). The poc (now 3month) has migrated to 2360.00 and this is now the important level to monitor. This is the poc of a distribution that began in February. The Value Area Low (VAL) of that distribution is currently at 2342.00 (dashed line). If the distribution is still current and developing, we could expect Support around that level – overnight it has been tested. However, if price prints time below 2342 then it would indicate a new development is taking place. Either way, if price is below the 2360 poc it is in a weak price location. Breadth numbers weakened again, see below, Bulls would want to see these numbers back above 50.
Resistance = 2360.00 (3month poc)
