They've kept it symmetric O/N ahead of the 8:30 a.m. reports. So the center of the range will be important,,,basically the 51.25 - 52.50 area. Below we have 39 - 40 and above we 59 - 60 which I thought would have printed Yesterday. Further up we have 65 - 67.50.

If you look closely at this chart you will notice the pullback into 3:30. Now look at the bottom of the chart which shows the cumulative delta for the day. It was decidedly negative at the start of things and got better as the day went on. When the breakout occurred just after 2:15 it went positive. Prices kept moving up and ask's kept getting hit increasing the delta. On the pullback we can see delta retreated mildly and at this point VWAP was climbing indicating volume above the average entering the market. A good tell prices weren't done going up.

hello and welcome...see the running the triples thread but in general the triples are 3 , 5 minute bars in a row.....they formed today right at yesterdays Vwap and POC and they come back to test vwap and POC often when broken....I also had that price I was watching from yesterday which was 51.25 so I had plenty of reasons for a Possible retest......there was also an air pocket on the one minute down there.....so adding was a bit agressive but justifyable...hope that helps
