Emini S&P December futures

Emini S&P support at 6050/45 is obviously key to direction again this week.
Longs here can target 6057, 6066, 6070, perhaps as far as 6081/83. (all targets were hit yesterday)
Just be aware that a break below 6040 can target a buying opportunity at 6020/10 & longs need stops below 6000.
On a break above 6112 we can target 6126/31 & eventually 6170/75 is possible.

Nasdaq December futures

The break above 21840 targets 21920 (hit), perhaps as far as 22200/250 this week.
On further gains look for 22290/299.
First support at 21920/820 & longs need stops below 21750.

Emini Dow Jones December futures

We broke support at 44580/520 to target support at 43930/850 as predicted & longs here were stopped below 43750.
A break lower tests the 50 day moving average at 43590/550.
If we continue lower we meet the 4 month ascending trend line at 43300/250.
Resistance at 44000/100 could see a high for the day but shorts need stops above 44200.
