Today’s airless dirge has gotten the futures within a single tick of a minor, 1263.25 midpoint resistance tied to a seemingly equally boring ‘D’ target at 1267.00 (1-minute chart, A=1256.25 at 9:37, B=1264.00, and C=1259.25 at 10:55 a.m.). These numbers may sound insignificant for trading purposes. However, the reason such in-between-the-holidays slop could be worth the dilgent camouflageur’s attention is that a print exceeding 1269.25 would surpass two major peaks on the daily chart — one internal, one external. This could conceivably set in motion a chain-reaction with the potential to terrorize shorts for the remainder of 2011. It could also provide a rampaging start to 2012.
