Surprisingly interesting action on SPX/ES today and the possible 2017 highs on SPX and NDX that Stan and I are looking for in the next three or four days may already be in. Intraday Video – Update on ES, NQ and TF:

Santa With Some Reservations
Looking at the shorter term charts there are some signs that we might see a retracement, though with Fed tomorrow any retracement may need to wait until then. There is a possible case for NQ to backtest the weekly pivot at 6344. Intraday Video – Update on ES, NQ and TF:
Winter Is Here
A modest storm by US standards is passing over the UK. We have enough snow for a modest selection of snowballs, and I’m planning a quiet weekend in, relaxing while doing no more than an absolute maximum of seventy charts and three videos before Monday. I might light a nice coal fire if the snow lasts.

When The Going Gets Tough
I’ve been struggling to get my morning posts out in recent months, and that’s because my workload at theartofchart.net is substantial and still growing. Every morning before the open I update and publish charts on nineteen different futures and forex instruments and record a premarket video looking at all of those. This must be my main priority.
A possible solution I am looking at is to clip the equity indices section from that premarket video, and post that with a chart or two before or near the open. This should allow me to get back to doing these free posts on indices every morning which I’d like. Trying that out today. Tell me what you think.
SPX is approaching channel support now in the 2621 area and that is a match with rising support on ES. I’d be surprised if that wasn’t tested and that could break at that test, though I’d prefer to see it hold. SPX 60min chart: (more…)
December Begins
After the spike up at the start of the week I noted the clear break over the previous wedge resistance on SPX, and mentioned that the next decent candidate trendline was in the 2650 area. That was a slightly low estimate as that trendline was tested at the high yesterday at 2657.74, rather sooner than I was expected. At the first test SPX has rejected from it. SPX daily chart:
