/ES Plan: Yesterday market closed bullish, and overnight continues on that way, moving a above Yesterday's range, so these're the opening and initial balance options for today:
A) If market remains above HVE 4446 with bullish internals, buy towards ONH 4453.75 and HVEs 4464-4483.
B) If market moves below HVE 4446 with bearish internals, sell towards YVAH 4435 GAP 4431 and HVE 4423.
Note: Market opens above previous value area and it's a clearly bullish signal. But, if market begins to trade within value with volume increasing, 'Value Area Rule (VAR)' comes into play.
