06/06/11 TradeStalker's E-Mini Futures Support and Resistance Updates

.................................................
TradeStalker's
Support and Resistance Update
6 / 6 / 2011
(Published Since 1996)
...............................................

Dateline: 6:06 pm eastern time, 6/6/2011

The ES opened flat on Monday and after a bounce to 1298.25
was reversed about 15 minutes into the trading day, it
dropped to test the 1290.50 support. A bounce off 1390.00
failed at 1294.00, and then another drop stopped at 1290.25
and turned up. A rally began but after getting to 1296.25,
the upside stalled and a rejection of 1296.00 made a small
double top and the market rolled over again. The 1288.25-
1287.75 zone was tested and a bounce followed, but it formed
a wedge pattern and a drop to 1283.25 occurred by 3 pm. A
bounce to 1288.50 turned pivotal, and unable to clear that
level the market sold off into the close.

As stated in last night's update the internal gauges have
reached a deep oversold condition. There was another closing
Trin above 3.00 as the internals on Monday were horrible
again. The only thing missing from a solid oversold status
is the Vix not giving sell signals. A "turn-around Tuesday"
is possible, but if the market cannot mount a decent rally
from these conditions, then a bigger bear move is underway
and the downside could gather momentum.

On Tuesday look for early weakness to be reversed to set up
a quick trade on the long side, especially if there is a gap
down open and the 1279.25-1278.50 area on the ES is defended
and quickly reversed back up in the first 30 minutes or so.
If that doesn't play out early then just wait for a bounce
to sell in to when it stalls out. However, if that kind of
early action does play out, look for the bounce to fail
around the 1288.75-1289.75 area on the ES if the market is
going to stay in weak hands. It will take a move back over
that area, that then holds at/above it on a dip, to dent the
downside momentum. Any trades on the long side should still
be quick scalp trades, because if this market doesn't have
the strength to get over the 1288.75-1289.75 area and stick,
then it still has another day of downside action before a
relief rally finally occurs.
