A nice day for futures. Solid winners in the ES and NQ Opening range plays and then a loser and a winner that netted small gains on the ES. The markets gapped down after the news that Turkey had shot down a Russian jet. We gave a weak bounce, then made new lows, then came back up and filled the gaps over lunch and closed at highs on 1.7 billion shares.
Net ticks: +1.5 ticks.
As usual, let’s start by taking a look at the ES and NQ with our market directional lines, VWAP, and Comber on the 5-minute chart from today’s session:
