Emini S&P December futures

  • Emini S&P still holding strong resistance at 5980/90 & shorts need stops above 6000 this week.

  • A break higher is a buy signal targeting 6006/6009 & we should struggle here but a break higher can target 6025.

  • Minor support at 5960/55 did not work on Friday,

  • I think we should have support at 5950/45 & longs need stops below 5940.

Nasdaq December futures

  • Resistance at 20960/990. Shorts need stops above 21090.

  • A break higher targets 21140 & 21190.

  • The best support for this week again at 20420/380 & longs need stops below 20300.

  • Just note that the last 4 daily candles have long lower wicks so it's obviously buyers are ready to jump in aggressively on weakness.

Emini Dow Jones December futures

  • A low for the day only 18 ticks above support at 43800/700 before we shot higher to my target of 44300/310 & 4 month trend line resistance at 44450/490,

  • A high for the day exactly here,

  • A break higher retests the all time high at 44625.
