emini analysis 9th April 2018 – pre-open from Chartprofit
Last Wednesday the 8month poc migrated lower to 2582. Bulls would want to see this Support hold. Significant Buying (green) marked above this level would be a positive. Major Resistance is at the 2725 poc.
Dayframe: The 1month poc is at 2611. Price relative to this level may be useful to monitor at the start of this week re ST strength/weakness.
Market Charts: Nyse and U.K. remained negative; Nasdaq turned negative; R2000 remained neutral.
Stocks>50dyma numbers: Nyse 34%, Nasdaq 34%, R2000 39%, UK 36%. Numbers >50 are supportive.
Sentiment: My version of the Rydex Assets Ratio ended the week at 18.2. The Rydex traders did not register any measurable fear in March as the market fell. As I said in the video two weeks ago “the retail investor may have learned the lesson that every dip should be bought” and therefore they remain complacent. In the LT that would be concerning. The Ratio fell to 10.94 during February’s sell-off, a four month low.
Bonds: TLT – closed on Friday above 119.00, the maj poc. There is little difference between the pocs at 119 and 121 in terms of time, so I would want to seee TLT printing time above 121 to confirm strength and before assuming a change of trend higher.
Dollar Index: the 6mn poc is at 89.98. The Index is today printing at that level. There is Support at 87.25 which is the 1/2R off 2008 low.
Gold – GLD: is printing above 125.23, the 4mn poc, which keeps it in a strong price location.
Oil: USO – on 01/25 the chart reached its highest level since November 2015. Chart equalled that high on 03/23. Chart is in a strong LT price location as long as it prints above 11.41.
GBPUSD: has again probed 1.4212, the major Value Area High. In January a probe into the VAH was rejected but price acceptance would be bullish. Last week the Support at 1.3965 (6mn poc) held. Price above this level is strong location.
EURUSD: the 6mn poc is at 1.2322, and the chart currently prints just below that level.
USDJPY: two failed probes into the 113.70 maj poc Resistance in December and has been printing below 111.30, the 2yr poc, in a weak price location since then. The 4mn has migrated to 106.17 and currently the chart is printing above that level in a ST stronger price location.
