Cycle Day 3 — Wild-Card Unleashed 🎲

🧭 Macro + Morning Setup

  • Futures opened flat amid event uncertainty (JOLTS postponed / NFP off the table).

  • Heavy gamma above 7000 → magnet early, trap later.

  • Key Gamma Strike: 7000 (ES ~7025)

  • Cycle Day 3 declared: Targets fulfilled → expect volatility & reversals.


🎯 Key Levels (Live-Fire Zones)

  • LIS: 7015

  • Active Sandbox: 6995 – 7015

  • Vol Trigger: 6985

  • 3D CPZ: 6964

  • Cycle Projections:

    • First wave: 6995 → 6975 (fulfilled)

    • Extension: 6954 → 6939 (both tagged)


🔴 Breakdown Phase — “Ice Gets Slippery”

  • Failure to reclaim 7015 flipped the script.

  • Sellers pressed cleanly through:

    • 6985 ✔

    • 6975 ✔

    • 6954 ✔

    • 6939 ✔

  • Bulls gave back the entire prior rally.

  • Tone shift: Implosion, Falling Knife, Crypto Crush (#MSTR).

“The market does not give a F*** what I think.”

Correct. And it showed.


🔁 Midday → Afternoon Transition

  • Price stabilized into 2-way trade.

  • Big back-test of CD1 Low (6917.50) held.

  • 60-min FVGs respected → structure stopped bleeding.

  • OPR Shorts paid cleanly; runners managed.

  • Late session Bull Flag triggered off FVG support.


🧮 Closing Tape

  • MOC Buy Imbalance: ~$2.5B 💰

  • Strong afternoon recovery, but damage remains.

  • Bulls need serious follow-through — no victory laps yet.
