ES Friday 20/Jan/2012


Here's what I've got for my ES MAP of PASR ZONES using a 30min chart of 20 days of data coming into Friday's trading. The Red lines are potential significant levels with Magenta lines as semi-significant. The White dashed lines are the Weekly Pivots (kind of a background thing to have on the chart). The Light Blue Volume Profile of the past "rolling" 20 days is displayed on the right vertical axis. Btw, price lines that are CLOSE together (within a couple of points), should be taken as an overall ZONE. The Gray background shows non-RTH price activity. Hope, as always, that this is helpful to some as a "MAP."

Would love to see an open in the 05 area to sell 07.50-08.25


Good luck to all!
What is there in the 7.5-8.25 area BigMike ? I see the O/N POC and O/N peak volume in the area, is that why you mentioned it ? Just trying to incorporate some of these MP concepts/strategies into my trading.

Thank you in advance

tough day to trade.
Ayn, instead of using O/N mid-point, I use O/N VA and related numbers, such as O/N POC (I use volume) and O/N HVA and LVA. I see many times HVA and LVA used for turn-around points by RTH traders. Today, I am doing nothing while we are in O/N VA area.
Below is my chart. Hope it is useful.

vasuki,

This is more lazy than Christmas days. No market at all, but Dow is mixed with SP500.
On the O/N chart above, green line is TPO VA, orange - volume VA
no clue as I have never followed those markets...sorry!
