Then, meet in the chaRTroom here by 9:15 ET for updates and Q&A
Through the prior close…
[This paragraph’s levels are all basis Jun.] Not for lack of trying, but for trying too little. We knew at Tuesday’s close that not gapping up Wednesday above 2434.25-2435.50would likely extend the decline to at least 2424.25. Wednesday’s 3-point gap up from Tuesday’s 2428.75 cash session close extended to test Tuesday morning’s 2434.25 highs. The prior highs held, and the noon hour collapsed to 2424.00. The balance of the session rallied back to the morning’s high, and almost formed a Pivot Reversal except for not maintaining its fresh high.
Overnight action’s new info…
[This paragraph’s levels are all basis Jun.] Globex action initially hugged Thursday’s last-minute reaction down to 2430.50 but never even pierced it. Firming greeted Europe’s opens back up at Thursday’s last-minute 2435.00 high. Fresh highs eventually developed, now probing Tuesday’s late high by 1 point.
If, then…
[At this morning’s open, the front-month rolls forward in ES to Sep to Jun. Going forward, all levels are quoted basis Sep, trading at a 2.00-2.50 discount.] Forming all but the last element of a setup can have the opposite resolution. So, missing Wednesday’s chance at a Pivot Reversal had a chance to resolve today as bearishly as it could have been bullish. Market Wrap addressed why that might not be a problem today — the late reaction down wasn’t too late to be credible, but it was too shallow to prevent resuming the rally overnight. And it seems the rally has, in fact, resumed overnight, targeting “unfinished business above at 2436.00, 2437.75, and at least one more new trend high close. Pre-open ECB headlines must still be navigated, and then ex-FBI director Comey’s Senate committee hearing. Regardless of the catalyst, failing to gap up would put yesterday’s late failure back in control, with potential down to 2419.25.
First Trade…
[Click here to view the Bias parameters, now available basis Sep] Exiting the open at 9:45 above 2435.25 would be likely to trigger the 2433.25 bias-up signal at 10:15. Exiting the open under 2431.25 would be unlikely to trigger bias-up.
Phonetic dictation…
