Emini Daily Update: Churning Volume

The Emini closed up 5.50 points at 1,517.25 on Friday. Leading into the long weekend, volume was light at only 0.9 million contracts traded.
The chart above shows a 45 minute chart of the Emini with volume and volume patterns added. Thursday's trading ended with Stopping Volume followed by a high Churn bar. This appears to have stopped the last downward swing and coincides with an upturn in cycle-based oscillators (Hilbert Sine Wave).
We're short from 1,529 and took profits on half the position at 1,519 (10 point profit target). When trade resumes next week, I expect the Emini to test the 1,512 to 1,515 level before starting another upswing move. In any case, a break above 1,519 would signal the beginning of the next upswing. Like this article? Sign up for Free Email Updates or subscribe to the RSS Feed.
