Prior Session was Cycle Day 2: Morning market activity was subdued as MATD rhythms dominated with relatively light volumes and range, as traders awaited the FED Presser. In typical fashion, JPOW leaned to the “dovish” side but overall non-committal.

Market reaction was positive as price rallied to 3 Day Cycle Target 5126 handle, at which time price reversed direction and when all was said and done, price was back at the day’s starting point. We classify this day type as a “Range-Runner.” Range was 89 handles on 1.899M contracts exchanged.

This leads us into Cycle Day 3Cycle Target (5126) has been fulfilled, so we’ll mark today as a “wild-card” as the battle for control appears to be stalemated. Core range (100 handles) is outlined between 5050 – 5150. We’ll continue to defer to Mr. Market to guide us to VOLATUNITY.

As always, our tactical trade plan remains unchanged…Stay in alignment with dominant intra-day forces. As such, scenarios to consider for today’s trading.
