Prior Session was Cycle Day 3: Theme of the Day:
“Riding the 89 Train” – A Bullish Locomotive 🚂🐂
Cycle Day 3 delivered in full force, with early core targets already achieved before the RTH open. David marked it a wild-card session, but the market quickly clarified—this was a one-way trip north. Any attempt to fade strength was met with swift pain, while disciplined longs found themselves cruising first class.

…Transition from Cycle Day 3 to Cycle Day 1
Transition into Cycle Day 1: Today begins a new cycle with the average decline projection zone between (6731) and (6726).
Bulls continue marching to new all-time highs in the face of a looming Government shutdown. Que: BIG YAWN!
Bullish momentum keeps the “89 Train” barreling down (or is it up) the tracks, plowing over any shorts in its path.
We should be looking for a normal CD1 with potential pullback noted above.
Stay flexible to the various scenarios, but rigid in the execution of your trade plan.
