Summary
Sunday evening Globex open. ES opened at 5,382, slightly above Friday's close. No significant gap. Asian markets were mixed with Nikkei -0.3% and Hang Seng +0.4%. European futures pointing marginally higher. The overnight session is typically low volume -- no need to trade until the London session or US pre-market.
Trading Notes
Sunday overnight volume is approximately 15% of a normal session. Spreads are wide. Avoid limit orders that are too tight.
Monday's session will set the tone for the week. The first 30 minutes of RTH (9:30 AM ET) are critical.
Watch the 5,375 level closely. A sustained break below on volume would confirm the post-FOMC downtrend.
Bond yields (10Y at 4.52%) are pressuring equities. Any move above 4.55% could accelerate ES selling.
Prop Firm Warnings
Do not trade the Sunday overnight session on a prop firm account. The risk/reward is terrible with wide spreads and thin liquidity.
Monday pre-market: wait for RTH open at 9:30 AM ET. Most prop firm statistics show higher win rates during regular trading hours.
Check your firm's rules on overnight holding if you plan to enter Sunday evening. Many firms count the Globex open as a new trading day.
Suggested Strategy
No active trading recommended during Sunday Globex. Use this time to finalize your plan for the week. Set alerts at 5,375 (bearish trigger) and 5,415 (bullish trigger). Wait for Monday RTH to establish new positions.
