Tuesday's Micro-Blog Excerpt

Noted here during Tue's NY auction
(highlighted in yellow)

  • Following the Globex sellside auction to 51.27s, stops were cleared in early in the NY auction  below the Globex Low where responsive buying interest absorbed Supply.
  • Short covering developed off the Globex Low, encountering no new selling activity following the uptick.
  • Initiative buy programs (IBP) entered at/near 51.65s, implying the potential for price discovery higher.
  • Key upside reference levels included the 53s (Overhead Low Usage Resistance). The market traded to 53s before ultimately driving price higher to 54.13s, toward our Daily 1st Std Dev High Expectation.
