S&P 500
Prior Session was Cycle Day 1: This cycle’s low was established early GLOBEX Session, with an RTH open hole greater that by no means appeared again. It’s notable to level out that on Cycle Day 1 (CD1), when value gaps greater, the day sometimes will lead to a “trend-day” with cycle targets fulfilling. As was the case, the Three-Day Cycle goal 5822 was achieved into the closing bell.
As well as, as outlined in prior DTS Briefing 11.4.24 the Bulls goal to “reclaim” Clear and Convert (CnC) prior broken levels was important to reverse the negative selling momentum and orchestrate a “short-squeeze”. Well, that is EXACTLY what unfolded this session. (see chart image below).

…Transition from Cycle Day 1 to Cycle Day 2
Transition into Cycle Day 2: We will place the DTS’ usual market prognosis on the back burner for this report, given the elevated potential for price volatility swings as the Election Results begin to be released throughout the night.
Normal “game-play’ continues to favor the bull-camp they have regained total ball-control by reclaiming previous broken levels. Further upside would target the Scene of the Crime (SoC) 5840 – 5845 zone. In terms of levels below to reference on any sharp decline…5810 – 5800…5785 – 5775 zonal areas.
We’ll continue to remain true to our discipline in maintaining positioning that is aligned with market forces which continues to serve us well, so stay the course.
As such, scenarios to consider for today’s trading.
Bull Scenario: Price sustains a bid above 5820, initially targets 5840 – 5845 zone.
Bear Scenario: Price sustains an offer below 5820, initially targets 5805 – 5795 zone.
PVA High Edge = 5811 PVA Low Edge = 5783 Prior POC = 5801
