S&P 500
Prior Session was Cycle Day 1 (CD1): Normal Cycle Day 1 as price declined to establish a low at 3723.75. Prior range was 82 handles on 1.838M contracts exchanged.
…Transition from Cycle Day 1 to Cycle Day 2
This leads us into Cycle Day 2 (CD2): Price is currently trading near two-day Point of Control (3808) which we’ll mark as today’s Line-in-the-Sand (LIS). Bulls will need to “power-through” this key level to continue this cycle’s rally to reverse this week’s selling pressures. As such, estimated scenarios to consider for today’s trading.
Bull Scenario: Price sustains a bid above 3808, initially targets 3823 – 3826 zone.
Bear Scenario: Price sustains an offer below 3808, initially targets 3790 – 3785 zone.
*****3 Day Cycle has a 91% probability of fulfilling Positive Cycle Statistics covering 12 years of recorded tracking history.
PVA High Edge = 3800 PVA Low Edge = 3748 Prior POC = 3790

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
