numbers I'm using in the morning only

60.25

55 - 56

46 -49

38 - 39.50


33
this 38 - 39 is top dog as it was a volume area from Fridays trade and now the O/N low is down there. The market will trade to where the old and new volume is......so all these numbers are the old volume...we need to monitor the day session NEW volume to help us get the direction right.....


I'm looking to fade this low for at least the 42 area this morning....


Other old volume is way down at the 24 - 26 area and the only other line is that 33 VWAP line for me..hopefully we won't be going down there yet today
that 42 area is the low volume area from the O/N and the mid-range of the O/N session
seems like lots of Volume in this last 45 minutes before RTH...lets hope that translates into MUCH higher volume in Day session....
Just to confuse everyone here is 30min PRC with multiple fib projections.
