Nikkei futures live eased to 38,220 as profit-taking kicked in after three consecutive days of gains. Analysts note resistance around the 38,600 level remains intact. The thing about CME futures gaps is that they tend to get filled. With the two largest cryptocurrencies currently trading higher, that means they both — at some point — are likely to drop back and retest those lower levels. The S&P 500 futures moved up 0.21%, while the Nasdaq 100 futures added 0.13% as of 7:27 a.m. Singapore time (7:27 p.m. ET Monday). Nikkei futures live slipped to 38,290 as investors trimmed exposure ahead of BOJ’s rate decision. Futures volatility expected to spike post-announcement.
