“Markets Never Sleep… and Today They Barely Blinked.”
Overnight Session – The Ninja Reversal
While the rest of the world counted sheep, NQ pulled a full-range Fed Day exorcism, reversing the entire move and drilling straight into Cycle Day 1 projected target 6818.45 AND the D-Level at 6820.25. Textbook BTFD zone — the kind that politely hands you profits with a bow.
Cash Open – The Resistance Games
The line-in-the-sand was stamped loud and clear: 6875.
Price back-tested it early and said: “Yeah… nah.”
Two-way rotations established the 6855–6875 battleground, and players took their turns fencing with varying grace.
Open Range Plays – Across the Board Precision
-
NQ OR Short — ALL targets fulfilled.
-
ES OR Short — ALL targets fulfilled.
-
CL OR Short — ALL targets fulfilled.
Let’s just say, today was an OR trader’s rebate program.
Mid-Session – Insanity or Opportunity?
Price action turned brittle enough to snap a plastic spoon.
Traders debated:
“Is the PA insane?”
PTGDavid: “IF the PA is insane… THEN we are all crazy.”
Consensus: 1000%.
Some traders sat on their hands. Others stared at charts like they were magic-eye puzzles. Both approaches were valid.
Bull Flag Break – “Noon Balloon” Liftoff
The bull flag consolidation completed, back-tested beautifully…
…and buyers teleported in.
Next leg up activated.
“Range Runner Rhythms” engaged.
Afternoon Session – The Highs, the Rejects, the Punches
Price retested the Fed Day High.
Initially accepted → then rejected harder than a Tinder bio with no profile pic.
Dropped ~10 handles into the final 30 min.
Then came the MOC Buy Imbalance: $3.7B.
Absorbed like it was nothing.
Into the close:
Highs of the day. Strong finish. Curtain drop.
