Emini Futures Trading / Low Volume Inside Day
E-Mini S&P 500: an inside day with a failure to penetrate resistance!
The E-Mini S&P 500 failed to make any records today as it stayed in a 8.25 range! There is major resistance at $1337.50 that may be the deal breaker. A tight little range like this surely indicates that a larger move is on the horizon, but we are near to the highs. Even the days mergers and acquisitions could not cause the slightest rally today. Positive sentiment is usually created by the mergers. The energies are still pointed higher as Libya, Yemen and Bahrain were in turmoil over the leadership within their countries. Gabon stopped oil production in Africa as a strike ceased production of some 240,000 barrels a day. The energies appear to be taking center stage as of late. Thursday, the European Central Banks policy meeting, the Euro Zone is expected to hike rates. Our Federal Reserve is still set on the 600 billion for our QE2 as “adequate” and fixes to remain there. Recovery is on course, yet volume is still light. The E-Mini S&P 500 needs confident bulls to soar through $1337.50. If the market keeps failing to penetrate that resistance, we may find a retracement in store!
Today, there were no major US Reports due out.
Tuesday, we look forward to US ISM Non-manufacturing Index at 9:00 AM CST.
BETWEEN the LINES
Tuesday, what to expect! We are technically still in buy mode, but we are stuck in a tight range! For some reason, it seemed as though the fund activity had been sidelined for the moment. Allocations can support some more substantial swings in the market. We anticipate this market to have an inside to higher day on Tuesday! Today’s range was $1332.75 - $1324.50. The market settled at $1329.25. Our comfort zone or point of control for this market appears to be $1328.50. Our anticipated potential range for tomorrow’s trading may be $1320.50 - $1338.50. The market stays bullish above $1313.00.
