Back to Neutral

ES futures ended their overnight rise about where we indicated in the prior post (see the ES 2-Hr chart). They then tried to make a lower overall low today, couldn't, and got down to within 90% of the prior daily low. But, when a new low was not to be had, they rallied back to neutral - the 18-day average of closes, or "the line in the sand" in what is technically an outside day up because although a new low was not made over two days ago, it was made versus just yesterday's low. This is still whippy market behavior and is not trending at this time.

ES Futures - Daily - Back to the 18-day SMA

The daily Bollinger Bands are beginning to curve in on price, and the daily slow stochastic is neutral to positive. A reminder that if the low of an outside day up is taken out within the next two trading sessions it would be termed a trap for the bulls.

Have an excellent start to the evening.
