S&P 500

Prior Session was Cycle Day 2 (CD2) Markets extended this cycle’s rally hitting 5100 and new All-Time Highs. What more can be said? Prior range was 92 handles on 1.658M contracts exchanged.

 …Transition from Cycle Day 2 to Cycle Day 3

This leads us into Cycle Day 3 (CD3): All cycle levels have been exceeded during this “ultra-strong” rally. We will mark today as a “wild-card”, with bullish momentum firmly intact, though given that today’s session is Friday, the potential exists for a “walk-away” trade. 

That said, our daily plan remains unchanged. Stay flexible and in-alignment with the primary intra-day forces. As such, scenarios to consider for today’s trading.

Bull Scenario: Price sustains a bid above 5095, initially targets 5105 – 5110 zone. 

Bear Scenario: Price sustains an offer below 5095, initially targets 5085 – 5080 zone.

PVA High Edge = 5107       PVA Low Edge = 5070        Prior POC = 5098

Trade Strategy: Our tactical trade strategy will simply remain unaltered…We’ll be flexible to trade both long and short side from Decision Pivot Levels. Continue to focus on Bull/Bear Stackers and Premium/Discounts. As always, remaining in alignment with dominant intra-day force increases probabilities of producing winning trades.

Stay Focused…Non-Biased…Disciplined  ALWAYS USE STOPS!

Good Trading…David
