An interesting week in the ES. Last Tuesday, the first day back from a long weekend in the US and Europe, the ES broke above an intermediate resistance zone. Despite high buy volume, price failed to take out the prior day’s high that had less volume. Being a Friday, not too many people wanted to have open interest in the market lest they get caught on the wrong...

After a concerted move down yesterday, the ES! tried to reverse the downturn overnight on reducing volume. It has mainly trade above the VWAP however, the overnight POC has been below yesterday’s. This could mean that price needs to come back and test the overnight POC or low before continuing up. After yesterday’s move, the price could just oscillate within...

A very interesting week last week for the ES! (E-Mini S&P 500) What with the tweets, corporate earnings and the continued trade war! Uncertainty still prevails. This should be another interesting week. A lot of opportunity and I am expecting a considerable amount of volatility. There is much in the way of scheduled news events. Sunday open could be either be a...

Overnight price action was within yesterday’s value area. Overnight high tested Wednesday’s VPOC and price came down and has taken out Asian low. With overnight VPOC just above yesterday’s. Economic figures out earlier were worse than expected, however had little effect on price. The main driver is the US-China trade decision. All things being equal price is...

Price action played out as anticipated. It was an inside day. Overnight session appear to have just been a continuation of price action that had been disrupted by the tweets thereby creating some obfuscation of intent. Overnight the downward action continued on good volume of about 330k contracts. VPOC established below yesterday and Tuesday’s. I am expecting...

Today I believe it’s going to be a balanced profile day as market awaits Sino-US trade talks outcome. Overnight price traded within yesterday’s value area. I believe price will come down to test yesterday’s lows before going up to test overnight VPOC or try to take out overnight high before falling back within the range -baring any unexpected news of course.

Basically price /market has rejected everything that occurred on Friday. I did point out that smart money was balancing their books. They did that beautifully. A long of longs got trapped and accounts blown! One rule of thumb – too many speeches on the day, obfuscate price action. Add Trump tweets and China-US trade war and it being Friday. Note how the drop came...

Price open above yesterday’s value area. There wasn’t much movement in price overnight and the volume was extremely thin. That’s probably due to the NFP and speeches. It will be a volatile session. Difficult to trade as it’s bound to be choppy. However, price will come down to test overnight lows and yesterday’s lows. Much will depend on the various speeches...

After an eventful price action yesterday, price calmed down overnight with a slow grind pullback. Today I am expecting the price to retest the top of the value area high and take out the overnight highs before coming back down and taking the lows of yesterday. If the lows are taken expecting price to test the weekly VPOC.

Yesterday’s price action was a bit unexpected due to earnings outcome. However, while price went up, it was not very convincing, due to the pace and low volume. Divergence remains. Overnight session remained within the value area low of the previous session. Towards market open, price pierced yesterday’s POC and pulled back to the bottom of value area high. Based...

An interesting week ahead. China trade relations raising it’s head. October highs stealthily taken out overnight, on low volume. More earnings reports out this week. Beware of traps! I think the market with try to establish value at Friday’s POC before deciding whether to retest the overnight high or continue to the downside. Wait and see what the initial...

Overnight price has been confined below yesterday's POC, around the value area low. Price rejected the low pricing. During London morning session, price still undecided. Positive GDP figures pushed up price. I am expecting price to test overnight highs and lows, and possible yesterday’s low, before going up to take out the weekly high. A couple of figures still...

Another day of earnings and uncertainty. Nasdaq made higher highs after earnings reports after market close. Dow lost some of the gains made on Tuesday. This has left S&P a bit flustered. There is no clear directional bias on intra-day. Overnight price action, particularly during London, held in a very narrow range. Maybe those in the know, know something retail...

An interesting day, price-action wise, yesterday. Today, more Q1 earnings reports – may put spanner in the works. Overnight, price coiled around the highs of yesterday. Price is above yesterday’s POC and has tested yesterday’s high several times. My take is that price will shoot through the October highs. As to whether it continues, that’s down to earnings...

The first day back from a long weekend. Yesterday's trading volume was rather low as expected, since most of Europe was on holiday. Today, Tuesday, overnight session trading was confined to a narrow range of 6pts within the highs of yesterday's NY session. On open, I am expecting the price to test yesterday's highs. Note this week heavy on Q1 earnings. Rather...

Overnight price continued to the downside as noted yesterday. It took out last week Friday's low. In overnight session, it has taken out Asian highs. Today I expect the price to be on upside. Note last trading day of the week, so everyone should be flat by end of the day as you never know what will happen during the long weekend.
