go long here?

bit lower as it came off too quick to stick a limit order in front, so waited for some buying to enter, rvols looked ok, some tick div, but bit too early - shld know by now, dbl bottom and new LL was likely - I was tempted due to the big push away from the initital low up to 62 though.

...whilst vols are so thin on bid/offer and prices just getting driven through.

No place for a 1.5pt stop!

...price has moved down from ATHs, I have been having all sorts of problems up there - probably unrelated, and more to do with me coupled with low volumes, but glad to see it move back into previous price structure.

...hopefully it builds a little value base above the 47s so can do a scalp long back up, or fade short if it pushes into 52-53 level.

Nothing that obvious though.

i bought bit lower @55s and took 1.5pt loss.

ES loves sticking the LL in then reversing, was tempting to fade but the tick div was awful, the level is great though, and this ticks 3 of my parameters - good PA - dbl bottom & into prev resistance/now support, great confluence of levels, >ADR....hmm.

Also 47-49 gd levels so wasnt sure....wldnt be surprised if this gets tested at some point tonight.

looking to short at 61 21 ma and vwap

i faded 59.50 cos of:

Very small tick div, but price stalled which was key
Y_lo
OR_low
S1
PA1 - Push into an inverted V from an hour ago
PA2 - pnf chart.....



Most are random lines, but theres enough of them.

My target was just above SD-1, in fact got out bit early. +4pts. Had slightly wider stop just cos Vwap above - which i have @60.25.

This time will wait for a LL before fading these down moves.
