 …Transition from Cycle Day 2 to Cycle Day 3

Transition into Cycle Day 3: Positive 3-Day Cycle (92.68%) is expected to be satisfied as price is trading securely above the CD1 Low (5801).

We’ll be monitoring closely how today trades and the week’s closing sentiment. The current pullback does no damage to the larger bullish uptrend structure. 

Bulls objective is to defend prior session’s 5825 – 5830 zone, and push for a move above 5865 – 5870 zone to close the week strong. 

Bears are diametrically opposed and clearly are looking to force a break below 5825 for a retest of the 5800 handle.

Our discipline of maintaining positioning that is aligned with market forces continues to serve us well, so stay the course.

As such, scenarios to consider for today’s trading. 

Bull Scenario: Price sustains a bid above 5850, initially targets 5865 – 5870 zone. 

Bear Scenario: Price sustains an offer below 5850, initially targets 5830 – 5825 zone.

PVA High Edge = 5853     PVA Low Edge = 5841         Prior POC = 5856
