/ES futures are trading in the upper half of the previous value area. Resistance around 2694.25 has now become support. Upside risk is elevated, with 2694.25 a nice level to go long if it is tested again, barring any negative news catalyst.

/NG futures have fallen sharply since yesterday morning showing sellers are now in control. Contracts are trading below the previous market value in a sign that downside movement may continue. There is strong support between 1.75 and 1.76, and price would need to move strongly below this range to cause continued selling.

/6E futures are trading in a narrow range completely overlapping the previous value area. This indicates almost no conviction from buyers and sellers. Expect contracts to remain between 1.0858 and 1.09355.

Auction Profile:

Range bound


/6B futures are trending upward over the past few days, yet strong resistance still exists around 1.2446. Elevated upside risk is present, but a meaningful move above resistance is necessary.

 

FINAL THOUGHTS


Once again, /VX futures are above 40 indicating volatility remains elevated. Gamma continues to rise forecasting increased stickiness to /ES price action. DIX has risen further into the elevated range indicating that institutional investors increased buying activity yesterday. While elevated volatility remains, continue to use lower leverage and a stop loss.
