***Written Tuesday evening for Wednesday’s trading for contribution to MrTopStep’s “The Opening Print” publication.
Prior Session was Cycle Day 3 (CD3): Three-Day Cycle Statistic was fulfilled as price traded above the CD1 Low (4132.50). It was a “Wild Ride Clyde” session as JPOW’s speech gave the markets a roller coaster ride, ultimately closing near highs of the day. Prior range was 90 handles on 2.122M contracts exchanged.
…Transition from Cycle Day 3 to Cycle Day 1
This leads us into Cycle Day 1 (CD1): Average Decline measures 4130.50 for this cycle day. Current momentum favors the bulls, though “trading winds” seem to shift by the minute throughout the session, so stay nimble. As such, scenarios to consider for today’s trading.
Bull Scenario: Price sustains a bid above 4175, initially targets 4195 – 4200 zone.
Bear Scenario: Price sustains an offer below 4175, initially targets 4155 – 4150 zone.
PVA High Edge = 4153 PVA Low Edge = 4100 Prior POC = 4168
*****The 3 Day Cycle has a 91% probability of fulfilling Positive Cycle Statistics covering 12 years of recorded tracking history.
