Bag Up to 1000 Ticks Profits on the Short E-Mini S&P 500 Trade: Here's How

Published 05/01/2024, 05:03 AM
  • Emini S&P June futures shorts at strong resistance at 5145/55 worked perfectly as the index crashed 100 points yesterday.
  • Emini Nasdaq collapsed from just below my resistance at 18050/18150.
  • Emini S&P has recovered all the losses and bounced 100 points to 5134.S&P 500 Price Chart

    • Shorts at strong resistance at 5145/55 worked perfectly with a high for the day exactly here before the index crashed to my targets: 5130, 5110, 5090 and even 5050 !!
    • A great call!!
    • We should have support at 5050/5040 (with a low for the day almost exactly here yesterday) and longs need stops below 5025.
      Targets: 5080, 5100, 5110.
    • If we see a very strong bounce we should meet strong resistance again at 5145/55.
    • A break lower is a sell signal and sees 5035/45 act as resistance to target  5020 and 5010/05.
    • A break below 5000 is the next sell signal targeting 4985 and even 4970/65 is possible.

    Nasdaq June futures caught me out as we shot higher to 17717.

    • We headed lower as expected but unfortunately could not quite reach strong resistance at 18050/18150 although targets of 17850, 17750, 17650 were all hit.
    • Holding below strong resistance at 17570/630 keeps the pressure on for 17330/300, perhaps as far as 17150.
    • Shorts at 17570/630 stop above 17680.
