Equities are staging a recovery in spite of weak and deflationary economic news (German ZEW survey, EU industrial production, UK CPI). There’s no US economic data due today. Crude oil is lower as there’s been no talk from OPEC about a production cut in the face of weak demand / economic growth. Soybeans are higher as wet weather delays the harvest, and background concerns about SA dryness around planting time.
Dec. eMini S&P Futures: It’s a Taylor Trading Technique Sell day- look for a rally, and we should likely anticipate a Sell Short day for Wednesday. There’s trend line resistance at the overnight high of 1881.00; the Fibonacci retracement level at 1884.75 would be next.
Dec. eMini Russell Futures: Another Taylor Trading Technique Sell day. Clearing MA resistance at 1060.10 would target yesterday’s high of 1064.50.
Dec. 10 Year T Notes: It’s an “exit breakout buys” day so a TTT Sell Short day is anticipated. Monday’s high of 127-12.5 is the SS day reference price. Treat shorts as a scalp only- the trend is up.
Dec. Euro: Consider shorting a break below the session low of 1.2645, looking for a downside breakout.
Dec. Canadian Dollar: Breakout setup (ID, NR7, doji). There was a downside breakout overnight; for the morning I would look to buy on a sustained move above 8891 (last Friday’s low).
Dec. Gold: It’s an “exit b.o. buys” / Taylor Trading Technique Sell Short day. 1238.00 is the reference price; last Thursday’s high of 1234.00 is a pivot point for extending a selloff.
March Sugar: Breakout setup. On the upside watch for a move above 16.79 (overnight high) and 16.86 (Fib level). On the downside use 16.52 as a reference price.
Dec. Cotton: Treat today as a breakout setup with the session high (65.50) and low (64.84) as reference prices.
Nov. Natural Gas: It’s an “exit breakout buys” day; the Monday high of 3.927 is the reference price for a Sell Short day move.
Dec. Live Cattle: Another “exit b.o. buys” day; I would consider shorting if it break below yesterday’s low of 165.95.
Dec. Lean Hogs: Breakout setup, watch the Friday low of 94.12 as the reference price for a downside breakout.
Nov. Soybeans: TTT Sell day; watch last week’s swing high of 955-0 as a pivot point for trend today.’
