S&P Emini market analysis
Emini daily chart
- The Emini closed as a bull bar yesterday and above the 5,900 round number.
- The market is close enough to 6,000 that it may be unable to escape the gravitational pull of it.
- Because 6,000 is such an obvious magnet, there may be sellers before the market reaches the round number. This means the Emini may have to pull back before reaching the 6,000-round number.
- The market rallied about 100 points above the August 26th high and is getting near that same distance above the September 26th high. This increases the odds that there will be sellers near yesterday’s high due to traders expecting a test of the September 26th breakout point high.
- Overall, the bulls have done a great job with the rally. However, as stated above, because the market is getting near resistance, traders will likely begin to take profits between yesterday’s high and the 6,000-round number.
Emini 5-minute chart and what to expect today
- The Emini opened with a small gap up on the start of the U.S. Session which was likely to close within the first hour.
- The market has formed a tight trading range with the first 6 bars. This increases the odds that today will have a lot of trading range price action today.
- Traders should pay attention to yesterday’s high as it will likely be a magnet.
- Today is likely to disappoint the bulls and not be another strong bull trend day. This means that traders should expect today to possibly close below the open or form a weak bull doji bar.
- The bulls want the opposite and for today to form other strong bull bars and get close to the 6,000 round number.
