As fears subsided and cooler minds prevailed, markets found a firm bid and rallied sharply in prior session recovering nearly half of the sell-down last week. So as the initial shock wave effects diminish, price will find a natural balance zone. Volatility is anticipated to remain elevated which should provide ample profitable trading opportunities for the disciplined trader.
Today begins a new Cycle Day 1 (CD1)…Projected Cycle Rally Target (2041.00) has been achieved as outlined in prior DTS Report 6.28.16. Residual bullish momentum may continue before the next cycle decline begins. As price is near the 50% retracement level, be on high alert for signs of price weakness in current swing up.

Today’s Hypotheses: June (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: Price is currently above PH (2029.00) and has reached 2041.00 Cycle Target. Price momentum will need to continue into cash session to keep current rally intact.
Scenario 2: Failure to convert 2041 to upper support and/or violation of PH (2029.00) opens door for possible reversal and shift in current bullish swing dynamics. Key Support zone is marked between 2022.50 – 2013.50 3 Day Central Pivot 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
