Good Tuesday morning!



It looks like the sellers are finally stepping up their operations as all major indices closed in the red yesterday, and there is actually follow through as futures are down sharply this morning. We have been warning of this for some time now and it looks like the overbought market needs a breather!


In the profile pic below, I have highlighted the key levels for today. Basically there is a very important range around 5275 - 5270 and if that gets taken out to the downside, look for 5263, then 5245 - 5240 would be next downside targets! There is a VPOC at 5239.75!


As of this writing, futures are at or close to overnight lows and we are outside Monday's range. Overnight inventory almost 100% net short so there might be some short covering at the open to balance out the inventory. The hardest thing to do is to try to short a large gap down as there is usually a counter move first. I am not guaranteeing this will happen but I have seen it many times. Wait for a bounce first then look to short! If it does go straight down, use target levels above!


A huge key today will be if we stay outside of yesterday's range. If we don't get back above 5282 then this is a great sign for the bears!


VPOC Update: No new VPOC's yesterday. We still 23 untested points of control below current price but this looks like it will most likely change today with this big move lower.
