…Transition from Cycle Day 1 to Cycle Day 2
Transition into Cycle Day 2: Market on Close Buy Imbalance $1.962 billion helped in-part stabilize price into the closing bell.
Goal for this session is continued absorption / stabilization of the prior day’s liquidation. As noted in prior briefings, PTG continues to view the recent bounce from the 10% decline as corrective / reactionary. High anticipation of persistent selling pressures mounting on bounces until there is clarity of the upcoming April 2nd Tariff “liberation day.”
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 5745+-, initially targets 5765 – 5770 zone.
Bear Scenario: Price sustains an offer below 5745+-, initially targets 5725 – 5720 zone.
PVA High Edge = 5802 PVA Low Edge = 5743 Prior POC = 5782
