ES1! is setting up for another gap and crap session if it opens near the overnight high of 6171. If it opens lower, we may first test that high before pulling back.
Yesterday's daily volume was one of the lowest since the 2024 Christmas. Bulls don't want to see this happening here at the potential double top zone. This is a confirming sign that the market may be forming a double top.
On Tuesday, ES printed a session high at our resistance level of 6160, then gradually drifted lower, posting a low of 6130 in the afternoon. In the overnight session, it printed a high of 6171. The index may or may not test this high again during the morning session, but we're likely to see a larger pullback today, as yesterday's vapor volume implies there's no strong bid during the RTH sessions.
I expect at least a retest of 6130, and we may see the next support zone around 6110 ±5 get tested if weakness starts from the open.
I'll be looking to short NQ1! somewhere above the overnight high. On the other hand, if ES tests the 6110 area, especially during the first half of the session, it sets up as a low-risk long opportunity.
