…Transition from Cycle Day 3 to Cycle Day 1
Transition into Cycle Day 1: Normal for CD1 is for decline with the average measuring 5588. Price is currently in a two-day consolidation following a 10% correction sell-down.
Market is in search of accepted balance and stabilization following ending the daily one-time framing down, which we will give the bulls a victory medal. They will need to continue to build a strong enough base to absorb any additional selling, otherwise and new down leg may unfold. How this week ends will be an important metric going forward.
Risk Meter will remain pegged to Maximum, so expectation is for continued wide ranging intra-day swings, so extra caution is warranted.
Of course, nothing changes for PTG…Simply follow your plan. Take only Triple A setups and manage the $risk. ALWAYS HAVE HARD STOP-LOSSES in-place on the exchange.
PTG’s Primary Directive (PD) is to ALWAYS STAY IN ALIGNMENT with the DOMINANT FORCE.
As such, scenarios to consider for today’s trading.
Bull Scenario: Price sustains a bid above 5610+-, initially targets 5640 – 5650 zone.
Bear Scenario: Price sustains an offer below 5610+-, initially targets 5590 – 5580 zone.
PVA High Edge = 5627 PVA Low Edge = 5590 Prior POC = 5605
