06/14/11 TradeStalker's E-Mini Futures Support and Resistance Updates

.................................................
TradeStalker's
Support and Resistance Update
6 / 14 / 2011
(Published Since 1996)
...............................................

Dateline: 10:11 pm eastern time, 6/14/2011

The ES gapped up almost 12 points on Tuesday and pushed
through all listed resistance by reaching 1283.75 before
pulling back. A dip held 1280.50 and a trend up move to
1286.50 followed. A small dip held the 1283 new support and
made another push higher. The ES made a slightly higher high
at 1287.00 while the Dow cash made a double top, and a 6.00
point drop to 1281.00 (just over 1280.50 key support)
followed and then the futures firmed up and settled over
fair value.

The market didn't like it around the 1287 area on Tuesday,
which is just under the June 6th bounce high which preceded
the drop to 1259.50 last week. On the other side of the
coin, the decent pullbacks are getting buyers stepping to
the plate the past few days. The technical gauges are mostly
neutral except for my RBI Oscillator, which is in sell
territory at Tuesday's close. This is a buy negater unless
there is a good set-up to get long at lower prices. A drop
back to the 1277.00-1276.50 area on the ES would need to be
reversed or a move to fill the gap on the daily charts could
be in the cards. To nullify the bearish outlook, the ES
needs to get over 1288.50 and hold over that area.

So, look for early strength to set up a shorting opportunity
on Wednesday. If that plays out, the 1281.00-1280.50 area is
the first support to defend. If it's is not defended, then
the 1277.00-1276.50 area is likely in the cards before a
bounce occurs. If that 1280.50 is reversed instead, then a
move to test or slightly exceed the 1287 high from Tuesday
is possible.
