🔍 Market Overview & Key Inflection Points
After last week’s momentum, the market remains in a bullish posture heading into today’s session. The open pivots suggest that as long as buyers defend key levels, we could see continued upside movement. However, if buyers fail, we could be looking at a deeper retracement before any further rally attempts.
📊 Open Pivots:
🔹 $ES: 6155
🔹 $NQ: 22305
A sustained open above these pivots suggests a bullish day ahead. However, we need to see whether buyers continue pressing higher or if sellers step in to take profits.
🚀 Trading Plan & Key Levels to Watch
1️⃣ Upside Potential – What Buyers Need to Maintain Control
🔹 6128-6144 ($ES) & 22160 ($NQ) – Key Support Zones
This is the area where buyers should step in to continue the rally.
If buyers defend these levels, we could see an extension higher into:
6180-6200 ($ES)
22400+ ($NQ)
🔹 Daily Close Confirmation:
A daily close above 22300 ($NQ) would indicate strong bullish continuation potential for the coming sessions.
If price holds above 22160 today, it supports a strong move toward new highs.
2️⃣ Downside Risks – What Sellers Need to Take Control
🔻 Failure to hold 6128-6144 ($ES) & 22160 ($NQ)
This would shift momentum in favor of sellers.
Target 1: 6095 ($ES) & 21971 ($NQ) – First downside targets if buyers fail.
Target 2: A close below these levels could open the door for further downside later this week.
