Did ES really trade from 1145 to 1156.50 after hours?
I suspect that may have been a bad 46.50 Tick.
Anybody notice that. Yahoo was not 10 ES points good!

Today's NQ hope it's readable, the file I was trying to send was too large. Had to scale it down in snagit.

It was a bad tick @ 17:01 (one trade, 34 contarcts I believe) although there were a handful of trades that went off @ 1149-1150

>>>ES SPIKE

that 5PM spike is due to DELL raising guidance. not worth 10 points in the ES definitely.

just stops snowballing upon themselves. they'll probably break some trades i think.

I guess somebody is now paying it!
Who knew? CME is closed for dinner from 4:30 pm - 5:00 pm.
These prints are on at 4:31 - 32.
Something smells with these prints!

Yes, there was a monster short-covering rally before the announcement of YHOO earnings, although it wasn't all that "monster" just because the range today in the ES was kind of narrow, and like watching "paint dry". It just looked like it.

Dell increases revenue guidance by $200 million.
Stock is +.98 cents AH.

Current ES quote at 5:55PM EST:

1147.50

What were those 1156.50 Prints?
IB has no idea neither does TradeStation.
I guess somebody sold at 1156.50 and somebody bought!
