DrStool Posted Thursday at 01:20 PM Report Posted Thursday at 01:20 PM The ES 24 hour S&P futures are trying to come out of a 5 day cycle low. So far, they have little to show for the effort, but the day is young. Clearing 5915 would be the first sign of a successful turn. But then they would face a bigger challenge at 5930. Clearing that would create a nice base breakout that would have a conventional measured move target of 5975. Trend spport is around 5900 this morning, rising to around 5905 at the end of regular NY trading. If that doesn't hold then a test of the low would be in order. With today being early in a 5 day cycle up phase I wouldn't expect a breakdown today, but by Friday, and the fake jobs report, anything goes.
