AS I SEE IT: The E-mini S&P Futures opened a little lower this morning and after two attempts to close the opening gap in the first two hours it started selling off. It sold off to support in the 1370 area filling the opening gap left last Thursday. Volume was still light but a little better than the last couple days. Our short term trading strategies are long while the intermediate and long term strategies are short.
Yesterday I talked about my concern that the market would have a difficult time advancing with Oil prices rising and that did affect the market today. The May Oil Futures traded up to 119.90 today before going off the board at 119.37.
For me, short term resistance in the June E-mini S&P is in the 1394.00 area with support in the 1370.00 area.
I HOPE YOU MADE MONEY TODAY!
Have as much fun trading as I do!
