CME_MINI:ES1!   S&P 500 E-mini Futures
Description:

An analysis for the week ahead.

Points of Interest:

4-Day Island; Thursday Liquidation; Balance Area Below S&P 500 $2,975; Friday Corrective Action.

Technical:

Risk-off sentiment after equity indices erased an earlier gap that occurred on hopeful economic data. The island of balance left behind will offer resistance on any correction higher. If the market trades through that area, then sentiment has changed and the initiative activity that drove prices lower is no longer present.

Recapping last week’s action, Monday overnight traded to a low-volume area from Friday creating a ledge at $3,211 that the market later moved through, into the close. Prices above the ledge were rejected after Tuesday's overnight auctioned below the breakout point, down to resting liquidity at $3,190.

Wednesday's FOMC meeting officially ended the move higher as volatility increased and the market closed lower. Thursday displayed a rush from risk as selling was persistent and strong into the close.

Friday failed to generate continued selling below $3,000, closing above a prior balance area and VWAP.

Putting everything together, the picture points to the potential for a correction up to the coming Friday option expiration. If liquidation continues into the coming week and value moves lower, then the near-term bullish narrative is no longer intact.
