The S&P futures opened near Monday’s low on Tuesday, looked just a few tickes below the overnight low at 1826.50 and short covered straight up 30 points to the exact overnight high at 1856.75, obvious short covering vs. new buying coming into the market because of the size of the pullback, 20 points back into Monday’s range, and the exactness of the reference points. If it was anything more than just short covering price would not have retraced so quickly or drastically.

Most of the morning’s early gains were subsequently retraced but developing value for the day remained overlapping to higher, along with a prominent point of control not migrating lower. Price later rallied to 1863.75, just two points away from the Friday’s selloff low, but immediately sold off again to re-enter and close back within Monday’s trading range.

The ‘rally’ also failed to get back into the previous 5 day trading range at 1964.25.

The wide POC at 1839.25, along with developing value should be main reference points for Wednesday. Expect more volatility.
