Emini Futures Trading Analysis- 16Dec2019

Posted on by

Hello Folks, the S&P500 futures are currently at 3190.00
Today’s Range (so far): 3177.00 – 3191.25

The futures have moved up on positive news regarding US-China trade deal. However, the futures are now in overbought zone, and we can see quick 20-30 point correction on any negative news. The resistance at 3180 has been crossed but really tested, so the current setup does not have a clean trade. So there is no new General Trade currently. We have to wait and watch.

The S&P500 trend is clearly up, and buying on correction is the profitable S&P500 futures trading strategy, while the futures are above 3000. The immediate support is at 3120-3140 level, and upside target is 3220, which is 30 points above current price of 3190. The S&P500 futures are facing stalling momentum, and they may try to test 3150-3160 levels by next week.

Traders with 10+ contracts: Here is an Optional Trade with 1-2 contracts.
“Buy at 3190 for Target 3210 with Stop loss 3170”
This trade has 50-50 chance of success and its not suitable for all traders.

At the start of year 2019, when the futures were near 2500, we had given our yearly target as 3000, which came long ago, and we have made good gains this year using 3000 as constant upside target, buying all corrections towards 2800. Now, we should remain cautious at current level of 3190. Thanks.

The S&P500 futures are currently at 3117 at the time of market closing, which is a good recover from day low of 3103 levels. As mentioned in earlier posts, the futures will be bullish above 3100. And sharp bounces from near 3100 indicate buying strength.

The futures will tend to become safe above 3130, but there is also a strong resistance at 3140, so we want to see how the futures navigate the 3140 level. Above 3150, the next major targets are 3180 and 3200.

Our Emini Futures Trading Strategy for Dec 2018, is to stay long, because the S&P500 index is in strong uptrend.

Here’s a Bonus Trade for our website visitors:

The S&P500 futures today at 3103.90, after an intraday correction till 3091.70, and recovery from there to close above 3100. This indicates buying strength because the futures were able to pull back up and close above 3100.

As described in the above chart, the main support is at 3075-3080 level, and the futures bounced back from that level several times before making the upmove above 3100. Below 3070, the futures will face major selling pressure and immediate downside target of 3010-3000 level.

The S&P500 trend is clearly up and we must only think of long trades. Our S&P500 Emini Futures Trading Strategy is to stay long above 3080 for target 3120 and 3130.

[Bonus Trade] We are seeing a major resistance at 3140, so a fresh long trade will be possible above 3150 level, for target 3200.

The S&P500 Emini futures are currently at 3131 in pre-market trading, up 10 points from yesterday’s closing of 3121.

Yesterday (Monday) was looking like a bearish setup during the day but the S&P500 Emini futures pulled up into green by the end of the day, and created a doji like candle, which indicated that the selling pressure was met with equal buying demand. Today’s pre-market upmove to 3131 indicates that we have some more bullish upmove potential, till 3150. However, if the futures start trading below 3110, which is below the low of yesterday, then selling pressure can increase rapidly and 3080 can be retested by end of Friday. So the market range is from 3080 to 3150.

[Bonus Trade] Buy at 3122 for Target 3145 with Stop loss 3110.
Yesterday’s low was 3111.25, so 3110 is a very suitable stop loss for this trade.

The weekly chart S&P500 futures is showing stalling of momentum, which indicates that we are probably near the top end of this rally now, and we may see a red weekly candle within the next 1-2 weeks, if not this week itself.

The daily chart of S&P500 futuresis showing reducing momentum in the latest part of this rally, compared to previous rally, so that is an indication of stalling in the price upmove in the near future, maybe in 3-5 days.

The hourly chart of S&P500 futures is showing strong momentum, which is supporting the current upmove from 3100 to 3131. But this hourly momentum can rapidly swing to downside once any strong selling comes, so we have to give more important to daily and weekly charts for understanding the market trend. The hourly chart will help us take a few tactical trades. For example, a long trade from 3100 to 3130 has been completed.

The S&P500 Emini futures are currently at 3121, at the time of closing for the day.
The futures fell sharply intraday to 3111 but managed to bounced back by the end of the day to 3121, thereby showing that there is still enough buying strength in this market, and even a bearish looking setup was rapidly avoided and used for adding long positions by the buyers.

We have a doji like candle today, and therefore, tomorrow’s price action will be very important, and it can create a big 25-30 point move either on the upside or downside. Today’s high was 3127.50, so the futures will become bullish above 3128 for at least 20 points more gain, so 3150 will be immediate target above 3128. On the other hand, the futures will become bearish below today’s low of 3111, and 3080 will become the immediate downside target. So we now have a market which can move rapidly between 3080 and 3150.

The S&P500 index is in strong uptrend above 3000 level. The S&P500 futures have come up above 3100 after testing the 3070-3080 support level for a many days, so that support level is strongly in place.

Our Emini Futures Trading Strategy is to stay long, and keep buying on corrections, as long as the futures are above 3080.

[Bonus Trade] Buy at 3121 for Target 3145 with Stop loss 3110.
Today’s low is 3111, so 3110 is an ideal stop loss for this trade.
