PTG Trading
S&P e-mini continues to slip lower in overnight trade down to projected 2321.50 possible cycle low. Also on tap for today during cash session will be a big test of 2330 50 day SMA. Cycle Range low is measured to 2315 and deep extreme to 2312- 2310 zone.
Today is Cycle Day 3 (CD3)…Unless price can rally back to 2339.25 sometime during session this would notch a 2nd consecutive failed 3 Day Rally which is statistically rare.

Today’s Hypotheses: June 2017 (M) Contract
*****The levels outlined below are more general framework within a larger range…They are to be used are reference prices from which to consider trade opportunities, not hard trade levels.
Scenario 1: Bulls need some help this morning to fend off any additional weakness to get them back into prior session range above 2332 which has been support. IF successful, THEN 2338 would be next objective for a positive 3 day rally.
Scenario 2: Bears have control and it is theirs to lose…Continue push for lower targeting 2315 – 2312 zone.
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
