…Transition from Cycle Day 3 to Cycle Day 1
Transition into Cycle Day 1: The Average Decline 5880 was fulfilled during CD3 on the early morning weakness. BTFD bulls responded timely absorbing the weak sellers, driving price higher and consolidation gains through the remainder of the session.
Post NVDA earnings after hours dip buyers remain active, buying the weakness at now key support 5915.
Bulls will be gunning to extend this rally above the 5945 – 5950 zone.
Bears will need to convert 5915 lower and press for 5885 (prior CD1 Low).
Battle Lines are drawn….
So with this in mind, our “game-play” will remain true to our discipline in maintaining positioning that is aligned with market forces which continue to serve us well, so stay the course.
As such, scenarios to consider for today’s trading.
Bull Scenario: Price sustains a bid above 5915, initially targets 5955 – 5960 zone.
Bear Scenario: Price sustains an offer below 5915, initially targets 5895 – 5885 zone.
