Technical recap
It has now been almost two months since ES broke out of its inverted head and shoulders pattern on the daily chart. Price has surged 8% since then and continues to rise. Volume has decreased and is something bulls should take note of, but there is little to no case for bears. Let’s take a look at some technicals on the chart we can keep in mind moving forward.
Technical analysis
Volume profile: In the chart below, there is a pink and a green rectangle over the price action. The pink shows high-volume nodes, where there is a lot more liquidity, than the green square, which shows low-volume nodes and low liquidity. Price tends to move quickly through low-volume nodes because the liquidity is thin and finds support or resistance at high-volume nodes when the liquidity is thicker. ES has been rallying with power through the low volume and is on its way toward testing all-time highs of $4,809.
Volume: The volume is decreasing on average.
50 MA over 100 MA: The 50 moving average is clearly above the 100 moving average and has been since January of this year.
