Heavy Start to the Week
by Tony Rago
New week, fresh opportunities — but the tape is coming in heavy again as we trade back into that 6,733 zone on ES and the big 25,000 round number on NQ. These are meaningful areas where buyers have stepped in before, so the open will tell us a lot about intent. If 6,733 can hold on ES, I’ll be watching for a push toward 6,762/6,764 to test whether bulls can regain momentum and reclaim the weekly open. Same story on NQ — 25K needs to hold or we risk another leg lower with sellers pressing the advantage.
No need to force anything on a Monday. Let it open, let the structure build, and then let price confirm whether buyers are actually defending or just slowing the bleed. Staying patient at these levels is what keeps traders aligned with direction instead of fighting it. Let’s see how we open and start the week off right.
