ES Thurs 06-23-11

Rare indeed double islands. Islands by themselves are rare and rarely last for long, but right now this, a double island set is something else.

for today, Thurs 6-23-11, if price opens in a gap below 75.75, then the market has created double islands one above and below.

The gap that remains open for both is 75.75 to 77.50 (and I would expect it to be filled sometime today)

price is testing 50% of the prior week's range (1269.75), this is a likely bounce zone, (short-term intraday) but can easily be retested RTH. if there is a lift from the current 50% of last week's range, and then a retracement (would prefer to see retracement undercut whatever L is established now by 1 tick), the pattern I look for is a 1-2-3 buy (AFter some sort of a lift and retracement.)

this might be my only comment of the day

long from 61.5, right above s3 and with resistance both at ym and nq, so worth a shot for a small scalp...unwinding all of it at 63.25 here...will be a bigger buyer down at 59 if they take it there

trying agin from 58.75...

one minute air fills at 60.50......gheesh!!

Fyi...housing in 3 minutes

too fast for my posts to have meaning..will go back later....runners will try for 62.50 high volume

wow, that was fast...long from the 59 level i mentioned before, flat here at 62...59 was the 4.236 fib projection both on my 30 min and 15 min chart, it was a stretch number and it was a pitbull number as well...nq at s3 at the time

I was going to mention that.....eventually...LOL....the minus 8 - 10 pitbull zone use to be a big zone in the first 90 minutes when volatility was higher....now we don't get there till later usually...today it happened in the first 30 minutes....anyway that was why I took that once i saw the one minute air pocket......nice trading apk......
