 …Transition from Cycle Day 3 to Cycle Day 1

Transition into Cycle Day 1: Having closed near high of the day, spill-over momentum may push price higher before this cycle’s decline begins. We’ll be mindful of a possible “Whiplash” Trade Setup should any rally extension fail to hold bid and reverse.

Upside extension levels measure: 6015…6020…6025

Downside retracement levels measure: 5995…5985…5980

Risk of sharp pullback/decline is now elevated given impactful news events (Election…FOMC) are now in the rearview mirror. Profit-taking becomes a real possibility should the FOMO rally buyers decide to step-back. 

So with this in mind, our “game-play” will remain true to our discipline in maintaining positioning that is aligned with market forces which 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 5995, initially targets 6015 – 6020 zone. 

Bear Scenario: Price sustains an offer below 5995, initially targets 5985 – 5980 zone.

PVA High Edge = 6008     PVA Low Edge = 5985         Prior POC = 5995
