To me when Da Boyz were in control every round of overnight selling was met with determined buying before the traditional open. So when I see the small caps go straight up for 10 points on no good news with no red bars I assume someone(s) with a big account needs a green or close to it open. I also am thinking that since the January jobs report (the big one) is more seasonal adjustment than raw number this month because of the usual post Christmas layoffs, it could be hard to predict. Second, I assume poor is good, adding teeth to the Dudley comments, but bad would be bad (Fed losing control) and good would be bad,(Fed rate hike back on track). So if I am trying to liquidate without crashing the market (like most of the Hedge Funds are) maybe today is my last best chance to unload, with a bonus day tomorrow if jobs is only poor. I mean how many more times can they use the Reuters cattle prod on the oil shorts before they stop covering and the whole market joins High Yield credit and banking?

I see. the market up move looks a bit sketchy in my book, since USD being duped during last couple of session. I would need to see whether there will be good set up today. but again, if USD turns around then we might have a very strong bull.

ES stopped 0.5 short of overnight high of 1922.25. Sticking to my story that Jobs report needs to be goldilocks (just right) or this is Umpels kiss good by.

good mornin, aany time on those 2 ellipse moves?
Red arrows were the entry points. For selling check SPX resistance at 1927 (kiss) and at 1945/50. A break of 1945/50 is very unlikely. But should 1945/50 break there would be a huge, huge squeeze.
