Pivot Pressure — Decision Day
by Tony Rago
Overnight we tested the weekly pivot and saw a slight rejection off the level — nothing dramatic, but enough to show it’s being respected. The weekly pivot often acts as a tone-setter for the entire week, and when price holds above it while defending the weekly open, it signals buyers are willing to lean in. Yesterday we saw a good amount of selling get absorbed — meaning offers were hitting the tape but price wasn’t breaking down aggressively. That type of absorption can quietly build a base, but it still needs confirmation. If bulls can hold the weekly open and reclaim momentum above the pivot, they have a path to string together a constructive session.
I’ll be focused on the prior day’s highs early. Acceptance above them keeps pressure on shorts and opens the door for continuation. But if we fail there and slip back inside yesterday’s range, that’s when we shift into range-day expectations — rotations both ways, less trend, more patience required. This is one of those sessions where structure matters more than speed. Let the levels guide you, stay disciplined, and don’t force it. 💪
