E-mini Dow Jones Industrial Average (YM) Futures Technical Analysis – Reaction to 22524 – 23571 Sets the Tone
June E-mini Dow Jones Industrial Average futures finished higher on Monday after following through to the upside after last week’s record performance. Last week the blue chip average posted its biggest weekly percentage gain since 1938. Helping to boost the Dow was a record $2.2 trillion aid package and massive policy easing from the Federal Reserve. Investors seemed to shrug off President Trump’s extension of stay-at-home guidelines and a rising curve of new cases of the coronavirus.
On Monday, June E-mini Dow Jones Industrial Average futures settled at 22167, up 730 or +3.29%.

Short-Term Outlook
The key area to focus on this week is 22524 to 23571. Since the main trend is down, sellers are likely to come in on a test of this zone. They are going to try to form a potentially bearish secondary lower top. This could lead to an eventual test of 20316 to 19789.
Taking out 23571 will indicate the buying is getting stronger. This won’t change the trend to up, but it could trigger enough upside momentum to eventually challenge the main top at 26962.
If the selling is strong enough to stop a rally at 22524 to 23571 then look for an eventual pullback into 20316 to 19789. Aggressive counter-trend buyers could come in on a test of this zone. They are going to try to form a secondary higher bottom.
If 19789 fails as support then look for an acceleration to the downside. This could lead to a retest of the main bottom at 18086.
