Emini S&P September futures

Crashed through support at 5545/35 for a sell signal & hit 5462.
Minor resistance at 5500/05 could see a high for the morning but the best sell opportunity for the day is at 5520/25 & shorts need stops above 5535.
Targets: 5505, 5490, 5470

A break above 5535 is a buy signal targeting 5545 & 5560.

A break below 5458 is a sell signal targeting 5425 & an excellent buying opportunity at 5410/00.
Longs need stops below 5385.

Nasdaq September futures

Emini Nasdaq shorts at resistance at 20030/080 worked perfectly hitting all targets as far as 19600 for a quick & easy potential 450 tick profit

However longs at the buying opportunity at 19530/470 were stopped below 19400 giving back around 100 ticks of the profit on the day.

There is minor support in the 19200/100 area but I do not feel confident that it will holding as downside momentum builds.
If you fancy the gamble, stop below 19,000.

Further losses can target strong support at 18830/730.
Longs need stops below 18600.
