Tuesday’s Session was Cycle Day 1 (CD1): Price rallied during the Globex Session fulfilling 3 Day Cycle Objective 3747.50, before declining to Average Range Decline 3720. Range was 33.25 handles on 972k contracts exchanged.
…Transition from Cycle Day 1 to Cycle Day 2
This leads us into Cycle Day 2 (CD2): Cycle Low is in-place (3714.50) as Bulls will need to keep bid above this level heading into year end. Santa Claus Rally trade is still in full force, so as Danny Riley (Dboy) says: “Thin To Win”. There are two estimated scenarios to consider for today’s trading.
1.) Price sustains a bid above 3720, initially targets 3730 – 3735 zone.
2.) Price sustains an offer below 3720, initially targets 3705 – 3700 zone.
*****3 Day Cycle has a 91% probability of fulfilling Positive Statistic covering 12 years of recorded tracking history.
