Tuesday's Auction
As noted in Tue's analysis, focus on potential for a pullback toward the Structural Breakout Point/Prior Resistance, 94s-93.50s, was key in Wed's auction as price discovery lower to the Avg Daily Range Low/Key Support Area did occur on the "bearish" EIA narrative. Balance trade developed through the FOMC's largely redundant and unchanged policy guidance. Focus on response to Key Support following the pullback into Thu's auction.
