That was a good call to step out early. I wish I could tell you how I knew, but some things are just from experience. The 618, to me, is a strong area if you know when to expect it to be effective.
Can you help answer these questions from other members on futures io?

This post may be controversial, but just for fun watch this zone for a reversal. This is a 30 minute chart. We just took out the stops of the long day traders from earlier this morning, which suggests the short traders are celebrating a big victory. They may not want to let go of their profits...

It's hard to know where the market will go initially. It is much easier to tell how it may react after it has already made a move.

Regarding the "zone" earlier (I know, it is a wide area), we are at a "maybe" regarding volume. Wait for confirmation of a reversal. Do not even think about freight-training this market.

I am now stepping my take up a notch from a "maybe" to a reversal watch.
