Futures Trading Levels and Markets Schedule for November 24th 2010

Busy day ahead tomorrow with significant reports through out the day. Markets are closed Thursday in observance of Thanksgiving and then open half day on Friday.

Overnight news from N Korea and Europe definitely had much bigger on the markets than any technical chart formations…but “looking forward” we sometimes have to look back in trying to project price action.

Levels for your review on the daily mini SP 500 chart below. 1151 is first major support in case declines continues.

Recent Rally of Futures Trading Causes Short Term Sell Off, November 19th, 2010

As we asked many times before….is this bounce just a correction from the short term sell off we had over the last few days OR was the sell off of the last few days just a correction from the recent rally of last few weeks???

I wish I could tell you, but what I can share is that in situation like this one, it is wise to wait for market reaction, price behavior around key areas of support and resistance and perhaps look at a few time frames, i.e. look at 15 minute chart, an hourly chart and a daily chart…

Below you will see the hourly Mini SP chart and below that the mini SP Daily chart for your review along with key levels.
