Interesting. I missed that one. Here is an interesting Support level coming up on the YM.

Cluster of weekly piv, S1, and 2 day 61.8% fib retracement.



Note: The swing low on the fib is using a 9:30am EST open and not a 24hr timeframe.

Happened a few months back on the ES - someone put in a pre-market order for 15,000 cars.....and the trade wasn't busted by the CME.

Soultrader that second one was easy to explain - CPI Tuesday! Keep your eye on those economic numbers. ZN and ZB acted as predictably as always.
