Wednesday's Micro-Blog Excerpt

 Noted here during Wed's auction
(highlighted in yellow)

  • Following the Stop clearing above the NY Initial Balance toward 56.80s, the Buyside response was key in confirmation/negation of the Buyside directional attempt.
  • Responsive sell programs (RSP) entered at/near 56.95s, developing a Structural Selling Tail, 57.20s-57s, as Net Sellside Delta reached new highs, implying the potential for price discovery lower back through the Balance. Ultimately, the market traded back toward 56s as two-sided rotation continued.
