Big Fish on the 1751s

The last two weeks have offered some amazing moves in the market, even for a day like today, which saw tons of back and forth action within a range that accounted for just 66% of average.

In particular, the ES stood out today in the footprint, as it became evident that a large passive seller (or sellers) was absorbing bids at 1751, which led to three consecutive late-day sell-offs, despite a mountain of buy imbalances. This could be very telling about future price direction, as some big fish seem to be building short positions.

Check out the footprint chart below, which explains the second reversal off 1751, and also be sure to watch the video below, which details each of the three reversals through the lens of the footprint.
