E-Mini S&P (1243.75)

In restrained selling Sunday evening, the futures looked bound for 1214.00, about 18 points below where they are trading now. Night owls should look to short near the 1240.75 midpoint if DaBoyz squeeze ’em that high Sunday night. Otherwise, you can bottom-fish with a 1214.25 bid, stop 1212.75. Caution is advised, since volatility could explode on the opening following a deceptively placid Sunday night. _______ UPDATE Using an initial stop-loss as tight as two ticks, the short would have triggered at 2:30 a.m. EDT and produced a gain of as much as $250 per contract, provided you’d exited on the subsequent low, 1235.50, 50 minutes later.
