Outlook 12/30: Stock futures are little changed after SP500 posts back-to-back losses. Investors sold off some of this year’s big tech winners, with artificial technology plays Nvidia dropping more than 1% and Palantir sliding 2.4%. Traders will be watching for home price data due at 9 a.m. ET. The Federal Reserve’s December meeting minutes are also expected, slated for a 2 p.m. release. Looking ahead, the public markets will be closed Thursday for New Year’s Day.
ESH26 (Mar2026): YVAH 6959 YPOC 6956 YVAL 6945 GAP 6954
/ES Plan: Last session market closed balanced, and overnight session continues on that way, moving within previous value, so these're the opening and initial balance options for current session:
A) If market moves above HVE 6954 with bullish internals/delta, buy towards GAP 6978 and PBTs 7006-7015 magnets.
B) If market remains below HVE 6954 with bearish internals/delta, sell towards HVEs 6930-6910 and GAP 6980 magnet
Note: Market opens inside value. Don't be too anxious. Stay patient. Volume is extremely lower. You don’t have to be the first. Bad trades occur when you force setups. On holidays weeks less is more. Avoiding a losing trade is almost as valuable as a winning one.
