sectors



With these mixed sectors its hard to gain traction for the ES

Cum Delta -30k but no traction to the downside for now

Perhaps the three stooges Curley, Larry and Moe (KLM) clean this up

NQ was moving down
ES had problems to move down with its mixed moving sectors
What we saw in the ES was a look below multi-day-balance and fail
I am running a bit under EV at the moment but this will change for sure

Objectives
On friday we closed higher but with a p shape
Today we come in with a huge gap down and open in the middle of the multi-day-balance area
Overnight inventory is short an we open at the bottom of the onr

Thoughts
If we see continuation the target would be the low of the balance area
However, i do not follow large gaps early
I will watch if we get some counter move to balance overnight inventory
Could be choppy in the fat part of the profile

The market had good opportunity to liquidate but it just does not
My execution was not smooth yesterday. I can do that better

I expect to be not in the market for the rest of the week because of private appointments

We come in with a gap up after nfp the gap is a pile on on the trendday + the last 2 sessions Short term inventory gets longer and longer. Does it mean that inventory has to balance? No, of course not, it can continue to grind up as long as it wants On the weekly profile we see, that we have poor structure not only below but also above There is a gap above us that perhaps wants to get filled If we see a bigger liquidation then the virgin volume poc could be a target I hope the gap gets large. Then it would be easier to navigate for me. I do not follow large gaps early ...

Are you able to share this TPO --- also, on days when contracts roll over like today -- how do you have a unified look for the NQ TPO and not the massive gap up that occurs?

I have some TPO's of my own I am willing to share if you are interested - but they are not as clean as yours.
