Good Tuesday morning!




As we enter the first trading day with a new president, futures are higher across the board and even though the markets were closed yesterday, the futures were very active! You can see I put a box around the Monday session in the profile pic below. At this moment, S&P futures are up about 30 handles, the DOW futures are up around 185 points and the NASDAQ futures are higher by almost 125 points.



Today there is not much on the economic calendar but we are still just getting into the busy earnings season with many more companies reporting this week and next. Today after the close NFLX will report earnings as well as Capital One Financial and United Airlines. All eyes of course will be on the top tech firms and AI leaders like NVDA, but they won't report until February 26th.



For today, as you can see in the profile pic and key target levels below, futures are trading over Friday's high and into the Monday trading session, which again, even though the markets were closed, futures were very, very active . Point being is that as long as we stay above Friday's high of 6051.50 and in the Monday trading range, then the bulls remain in control and look for upper targets . By the way, the upper targets were already hit in the overnight session, however, we need to see if they get hit during the regular trading hours as well. Now, if Friday's high is lost and futures break below 6051.50, then look for the Point of Control at 6033.50, and then anything below that, look for lower targets of 6000 to 5990! Futures are trading @ 6063 at the time of this writing.





VPOC Update: A new VPOC was added on Friday @ 5985.75, so we still have 4 above and now 28 below. 6100 is the closest above and could be in play in the very near future and 5985.75 is now the closest below.
