The September S&P contract has fired 90-10 Low Continuation & Reversal and Momentum Pinball Buy signals for today's trading. The 90-10 Low Continuation & Reversal signal tells us to look for morning follow through on the weak close, but to expect a likely reversal once the initial move has bottomed. The Momentum Pinball Buy signal suggests that we'd want to consider longs if price is strong enough to break the first hour high. Cycle Indicators (chart at right) are moving into a region where short term cyclical lows often form, but the more immediate trend is to lower prices. Odds favor continued downside in today's early trading. Look for an opportunity to sell the break of yesterday's 1654.25 low, or even earlier if price demonstrates weakness below the 1664.00 level of the Daily Pivot. But stand prepared to exit or even reverse if we get appropriate price reversal patterns and/or Oscillator Divergence near important support levels. Our Normal Low Range Projection level of 1641.75 or the Extended Low Range Projection level of 1631.25 would be likely areas for such a reversal to take place, as would a test and failure of yesterday's low. The Momentum Pinball Buy signal tells us we can consider the long side even sooner if the first hour's high happens to be broken to the upside. NOTE: September Dow Jones, Nasdaq 100, and Russell 2000 e-mini contracts have all fired the same Pattern Signals as the ES. This means that they can all be traded in very similar fashion.

The September S&P contract has fired 2 Day ROC Buy, Wide Range Upside Reversal, 90-10 High Continuation, and Momentum Pinball Sell signals for today's trading. The 2 Day ROC Buy signal implies that today's principal trade direction should be to the upside. The Wide Range Upside Reversal signal tells us that yesterday's action likely marked a significant intermediate term turning point with more upside to follow. The 90-10 High Continuation signal tells us that yesterday's late day move higher is likely to continue on into today. The Momentum Pinball Sell signal suggests that IF the first hour's low happens to be broken, the market is telling us something completely different than originally assessed, and we'd want to consider a short position. Cycle Indicators (chart at right) have moved into a region where short term cyclical tops often form, but both the larger and more immediate trends are to higher prices. Odds favor further upside in today's early trading. Look for an opportunity to buy the break of yesterday's 1633.50 high with a stop just under the 1618.75 level of today's Daily Pivot. Price strength above the DP may provide clues for earlier entry. The Momentum Pinball Sell signal, on the other hand, suggests we consider the short side if the first hour's low happens to be broken to the downside. NOTE: September Dow Jones, Nasdaq 100, and Russell 2000 e-mini contracts have all fired very similar Pattern Signals. This means that they can all be traded in very similar fashion.

The August Lean Hogs contract has fired 2 Day ROC Buy and 90-10 High Continuation & Reversal signals for today's trading. The 2 Day ROC Buy signal implies that today's principal trade direction should be to the upside. The 90-10 High Continuation & Reversal signal tells us to look for morning follow through on yesterday's strong close, but to expect a likely reversal once the initial move has topped. Cycle Indicators (chart at right) have moved into a region where short term cyclical tops often form, but both the larger and more immediate trends are to higher prices. Odds favor continued upside in today's early trading. Look for an opportunity to buy the break of yesterday's 93.950 high, or even earlier if price demonstrates strength above the 93.550 level of the Daily Pivot. But stand prepared to exit or even reverse if we get appropriate price reversal patterns and/or Oscillator Divergence near important resistance levels. Our Normal High Range Projection level of 94.475 or the Extended High Range Projection level of 94.925 would be likely areas for such a reversal to take place.

The June T-Bond contract has fired 90-10 High Continuation and Momentum Pinball Sell signals for today's trading. The 90-10 High Continuation signal is fired when the day's trading closes within the top 10% of the day's range. It tells us that yesterday's late day move higher is likely to continue on into today. The Momentum Pinball Sell signal suggests that IF the first hour's low happens to be broken, the market is telling us something completely different than originally assessed, and we'd want to consider a short position. Cycle Indicators (chart at right) appear as if a short term cyclical low has recently been marked. Odds favor further upside in early morning trade. Look for an opportunity to buy the break of yesterday's 145-18 high with a stop just below the 144-31 level of the Daily Pivot. Price strength above the Daily Pivot may provide clues for earlier entry. The Momentum Pinball Sell signal, on the other hand, suggests we consider the short side if the first hour's low happens to be broken to the downside.

The June Live Cattle contract has fired 90-10 Low Continuation and Momentum Pinball Buy signals for today's trading. The 90-10 Low Continuation signal is fired when the day's trading closes within the bottom 10% of the day's range.

Price weakness below the DP may provide clues for earlier entry. The Momentum Pinball Buy signal, however, tells us to change our bias to the upside if the day's first hour high happens to be taken out. To learn how to trade these setups every day Click Here!
