Emini S&P JUNE Futures

  • Emini S&P tested support at 6010/6000 and longs needed stops below 5990, which was tricky as we overran to 5988 before a 600 tick recovery.
  • Overnight, we collapsed to strong support at 5950/40, and longs needed stops below 5930.
  • We made a low for the overnight session so far at 5927.50, and of course, conditions are more volatile as the situation develops.
  • If we continue lower, look for a test of support at 5895/85.
  • Longs need stops below 5875.
  • We are likely to meet resistance at 5995/6005, but a break above 6010 suggests the panic is over.

Nasdaq June Futures

  • Emini Nasdaq made a low for the day at strong support at 21750/680 yesterday with an impressive recovery from 21713 to 21977.
  • The break lower overnight risks a slide to 21440/400 (a low at 21471 as I write) and perhaps as far as a buying opportunity at 21300/250.
  • Resistance at 21700/21800, but a break above 21900 suggests the panic is over.

Emini Dow Jones June Futures

  • Emini Dow Jones made a low for the day almost exactly at support at 42660/600 before we shot higher to 43000 for up to 350 ticks profit on the longs.
  • The break lower overnight hit my target and buying opportunity at 42350/250, and longs need stops below 42100.
  • Just be aware that a break below 42100 can target 42050/42000, perhaps as far as 41900/850.
  • Longs at 42350/250 can target 42400/450, perhaps as far as 42550/590 for profit-taking.
  • Further gains meet resistance at 42600/700, and shorts need stops above 42850.
