Emini Dow Jones June futures
- Emini Dow Jones longs at my buying opportunity at 42350/250 worked perfectly with a low for the day only 50 ticks lower & a 400 tick recovery.
- In fact we had 2 chances at this buying opportunity hitting 42550/590 for profit taking.

- A low for the session so far just 20 ticks above here.
- Minor resistance at 42200/42250 so above 42300 targets 42400/42450.
- A high for the morning is certainly possible here but shorts need stops above 42550.
- Further gains target 42700/750.
- A break below 41850 risks a slide to 41650, perhaps as far as 41350/300.
