The market gave us a nice pullback on the opening drive, but the 74 target held rock solid for the rest of the day.
I had hoped for a bit more to the downside for better odds for the buy side, but it was not to be.
The rainline was tagged, then the consolidation came until lunch when we had an awkward buy program that was goosed by the Boyz and targeted the ATH like a laser.
For traders who had a good week, today was icing on the cake.
Beginning of month bias continues.
I lost about 6 videos today, sound stopped. Most of them were detailing moving stops up as long as 78 remained intact, longs were good until the double top and timing said get paid.
We suggested 87.5 to 88 as resistance stop for the late contra.
Step by Step ow.ly/rbzS30gkobO day trading is easier if we know OTF agenda DT4$
DT4$ shorts advised paid 74 t1 at 73.5 longs using 72 support ow.ly/MirZ30gkXd6 longs advised trail 78.25+ and PFS 82.5 to 83.75
