Technical analysis – Market pre-open 1st December
ES has been consolidating for seven days having stalled at the 2094 maj poc. Bulls would want to see price above this level and the likely volatility we’ll see later in the week with the ECB decision and U.S. jobs data, could resolve the matter.
Potential area of S/R is 2087.00 (5mn poc) to 2094.00 (maj poc)
Second Level Support = 1971.00 = 1/2R off this year’s high
Stocks>50dyma numbers: Nyse 63% (from 64%), Nasdaq 63% (unch), R2000 66% (from 67%). Numbers >50 are supportive.
Sentiment: My version of the Rydex Assets Ratio was higher at 8.38, close to the ratio on 11/11, at 8.41 which was a 57day high.
