The Precise Take – Minor shakeout or end of trend?

Medium Term Analysis:  Overnight, the ES fell to just below the weekly pivot at 1113.75 (actual low 1113.00), and has bounced to VWAP as we write.  Respect of the weekly pivot combined with the EuroYen rally overnight suggests this may just be a minor shakeout.  A close in the ES below 1113.75, however, would negate this.  As we wrote earlier in the week, next week’s news calendar features ISM Manufacturing first thing Monday, with nothing major until Friday’s Employment Situation. 

Trading Today:  We’ll play the projected range today, which is the overnight low and the weekly pivot (1113.00 to 1113.75) on the lower end to yesterday’s low and close (1120.50 to 1121.75) on the upper end.  Today’s value area is…

    I’m watching it too. Gut feeling is that we will test the ~1125 area again by next Wed. and possibly have new nominal high before beginning the real down leg. First few days of the new year have a very bullish seasonality.
