S&P 500

Prior session was Cycle Day 1 (CD1): Textbook CD1 unfolded, as price continued its decline down to Violation Levels. Range was 49 handles on 1.469M contracts exchanged.

 …Transition from Cycle Day 1 to Cycle Day 2

This leads us into Cycle Day 2 (CD2): Normal for CD2 is for some ‘back n fill’ price to absorb recent activity. Overnight price stalled at P-VAH (4470) and is currently trading near 5-day POC (4454). As such, there are two estimated scenarios to consider for today’s trading.

1.) Price sustains a bid above 4454, initially targets 4470 – 4475 zone. 

2.) Price sustains an offer below 4454, initially targets 4440 – 4435 zone.

*****3 Day Cycle has a 91% probability of fulfilling Positive Cycle Statistic covering 12 years of recorded tracking history.
