S&P 500
Prior Session was Cycle Day 2 (CD2): Overall a quiet session as price tagged our initial target zone (4925 -4930) consolidating in typical Cycle 2 fashion, until the Bond Market closing. The Power Hour saw price break the “log-jam”, vaulting to 4950 handle, establishing yet a new all-time high. Prior range was 54 handles on 1.138M contracts exchanged.
…Transition from Cycle Day 2 to Cycle Day 3
This leads us into Cycle Day 3 (CD3): Minimum Three-Day Cycle Objectives are fulfilled, though with bullish momentum intact, final Cycle Target measures 4972.50. Our daily plan remains unchanged. Stay flexible and in-alignment with the primary intra-day forces. As such, scenarios to consider for today’s trading.
Bull Scenario: Price sustains a bid above 4950, initially targets 4970 – 4975 zone.
Bear Scenario: Price sustains an offer below 4950, initially targets 4935 – 4930 zone.
****IMPORTANT NOTE: It is good practice to review previous briefings as many times key levels noted then, come into play for the current session. PREPARATION = PROFITS
