Trading Room RECAP 9.25.25

Overview

Cycle Day 2 delivered a heavy-handed bear session dominated by long liquidation pressure. Overnight, bulls failed their mission to reclaim the 6700–6705 resistance zone, teeing up short plays right from the open. A textbook Head & Shoulders setup on the 60-minute chart gave bears the edge, with the neckline at 6678 serving as the tripwire for downside momentum.


Key Market Structure

  • 6650–6655 was the battlefield of the day, a confluence of Fib Cluster, Zero Gamma, Money Box, and Target Master levels. Once cracked, it unleashed a continuation break toward 6647–6646, confirming bear control.

  • Cycle Day 2 Violation levels and AB=CD symmetry reinforced the downside path, driving price toward the 6625 Dynamic D-Level, which aligned perfectly with Manny’s afternoon low timing window (2 pm).

  • Recovery attempts were shallow. Bulls needed a 6660+ reclaim to regain traction but were consistently capped under resistance.


Trading Flow & Timing Windows

  • Morning Session: Bears pressed hard off the neckline, with multiple target zones achieved quickly.

  • Midday: A weak bounce attempt around Manny’s 11:30 clock window was rejected, leaving supply in control.

  • Afternoon: The 2 pm low aligned precisely with clock studies and D-Level support at 6625. This was the best opportunity for tactical longs, though many in the room opted to lock profits rather than press further risk.

  • Last Hour: Price carved out a higher low, reclaiming into the Mid-VWAP zone by the close, setting up for potential Friday stabilization.


Room Takeaways

  • Process over Profits was the mantra — preparation, patience, and disciplined execution won the day.

  • Manny’s Clock Studies gave surgical precision, with intraday pivots aligning almost to the minute.

  • Automation and consistent journaling were highlighted as powerful tools to fight trading fatigue and emotional decision-making.


Closing Notes

Despite a heavy liquidation tone, the market respected defined levels and clock pivots, rewarding traders who trusted structure and timing. With price closing mid-VWAP, Friday sets up as a Capital Preservation session ahead of the weekend.
