PTG Trading

S&P remains in a low volatility rut as 10-day Average True Range is stuck near 13.75…Intra-day trade opportunities are illusive as price has pulled back testing the 2368 breakout level.

Today is Cycle Day 3 (CD3)…Price is currently trading below CD1 Low (2378.00) and will need to trade above to notch a Positive 3 Day Cycle. Bulls still need to shift price above 2382 – 2383 which is now the 3 Day Central Pivot Zone.

Range Projections and Key Levels

HOD  ATR Range Projection: 2382.50; LOD ATR Range Projection: 2367.00; Cycle Day 1 Low: 2378.00; 3 Day Central Pivot: 2383.00; 3 Day Cycle Target: 2401.45; 10 Day Average True Range: 13.75

Today’s Hypotheses: March 2017 (H) Contract

*****The levels outlined below are more general framework within a larger range…They are to be used are reference prices from which to consider trade opportunities, not hard trade levels.

Scenario 1:  Bulls need to hold above 2368 handle and convert 2378 back to upper support. IF successful, THEN next objective will be to push for 2382 – 2384 zone. Cycle Range High measures 2391.00.

Scenario 2:  Bears have an opening if price can remain below 2378..2382 – 84 zone and push for a conversion below 2368 handle. Cycle Range Low measures 2358.48.

Trade Strategy: Our tactical trade strategy will simply remain unaltered…We’ll be flexible to trade both long and short side from Decision Pivot Levels. Continue to focus on Bull/Bear Stackers and Premium/Discounts. As always, remaining in alignment with dominant intra-day force increases probabilities of producing winning trades.

Stay Focused…Non-Biased…Disciplined  ALWAYS USE STOPS!

Good Trading…David
