Good Tuesday morning!
Call remains hang on for the ride!!! The markets started off yesterday with some very choppy, range bound action as expected until Minneapolis FED President Neel Kashkari made some comments about the FED's balance sheet, and he also said there is huge uncertainty about where the FED Funds rate is located, and the markets sold off very quickly on those statements.
Things seemed to have swung to the bears, especially after losing the key levels of 5777 - 5772, and the low of the day was 5734.25. Once again the levels are important. This morning however, price has moved back up above yesterday's 1/2 back @ 5761 so this will be of the most utmost importance today as well as the single print range I have listed in the profile pic below!
If the buyers can keep price above 5761 then they may wrestle back control from the short term edge the bears took yesterday. Also the top of the single prints is @ 5766.50 so further exploration above that is more bullish and then we would be looking for POC and upper targets.
Any move below 5761 then bottom of the single prints @ 5756.50, then we will look for more downside action and lower targets as sellers step up their operations. At the time of this writing, futures are trading @ 5766.
VPOC Update: Finally! That new VPOC which was just added below @ 5744.25 was taken out on that sell off so we are now back to 23 untested Points of Control below with still none above.
