Please read previous highlighted comments. In Thursday’s session a probe into the 5mn poc at 2063 was rejected and ES sold off. The Value Area was generated entirely below that level which is an indication of weakness and Aggressive Selling was marked. These red-at-bottom lows are tested 80% of the time within a day (or two).
Key Charts: Momentum, although positive, is down for all four major stock index ETFs. Key chart IWM closed below 115.35, its maj poc.
First Level Resistance = 2063.00 (5mn poc)
Stocks>50dyma numbers: Nyse 51% (from 61%), Nasdaq 52% (from 58%), R2000 54% (from 60%). Numbers >50 are supportive.
