“Peek-a-Boo” PKB (a.k.a. Look Above/Below and Fail Reversal) Long Structure set the session’s rhythm to rally, fulfilling the upper 6045 – 6050 target zone as outlined in the DTS Briefing 6.12.25, with ULTRA PRECISION.
The remainder of the day was consolidative, with a final Market on Close Sell Imbalance that got easily absorbed like a Bounty Paper Towel. “The Quicker Picker-Upper!”

…Transition from Cycle Day 2 to Cycle Day 3
Transition into Cycle Day 3: Price is safely above the CD1 Low (6006.25) which will satisfy the Positive 3-Day Cycle Statistic, that has an 90.32% historical performance track record.
Market is currently in a upper quartile of this week’s distribution, so with bulls in dominant control, it will be theirs to lose.
We’ll mark this day as “Capital Preservation Friday!”
IF you have had a solid trading week, then there is no reason to over-trade and if you struggled, there is no reason to attempt to play catch-up. The market is an abundant river of opportunities, so trade smartly.
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 6040+-, initially targets 6050 – 6055 zone.
Bear Scenario: Price sustains an offer below 6040+-, initially targets 6030 – 6025 zone.
