23-23.50 looks like it might be resistance as its where we have the volume spike from the morning.


Yes, this rally has stalled around the 1023-1024 area. Lots of confluence of resistance here:
YDay's lo 1023
Gap fill 1024.5
7am(PST) selloff started at around 1024 area.


wow, TICK spiked up to +1500 !! That was how much supply was in the 1024 area. That should be support now, looking for longs at 1023


out +1 tick on that long. That TICK= +1500 could be a sign of exhaustion, not taking any chances.... waiting for the next setup

some serious buying, TICK hit +1300 on that latest impulse move
Bonds have broken below support level 128.01. Things are looking good for a 1022.5 target

update of jul1 bottom


Ok, here's the ABCD projection: AB=1007-1017, CD = 1012 - 1022

That big red line in the chart is a downtrend line starting from YDay's hi 1044. We've broken that. I think the bottom is in.

I plan to buy any pullback that approaches 1017-1018 for another 10pt measured move to 1027.
I think 1017 should act as support now (O/N low, and swing low from this morning)


Long 1017, out 1018.25
nice scalp. I was short 24 covered at 18.5. You scared me with your supply and Tick but i thought to much resistance up there.

I actually went short at 23.5 and covered at 26.25 but re shorted at 24 because i felt i got juked on that false breakout. Lately there has been a lot of false breakouts in the afternoon.

I wanted to hold this longer and possible catch a huge afternoon selloff as we been having huge trends late in the day. But the 18 area looks like a level where price will fluctuate around.

1017 is a big line in the sand for me, good luck w/ your short
o i covered that at 18. no runners. but thanks!

i reshorted just now at 1022
covered at 18.50. 18 seems like a magnet.
Look how price cant close above 23.5 the high volume bar from the morning session.
Here is the chart I was looking at for the afternoon.
