Wednesday's Auction
via The Daily

As noted in Wed's analysis, focus into Thu's auction on response to 56s-55.70s, was key as buying interest emerged there, resulting in short covering inventory adjustment and rotation back through the multi-day Balance, 55.70s-58.70s. Focus into Fri's auction on response to Thu's Upper Trade Cluster, 58.60-57.40s.

(highlighted in yellow) 

  • Buying interest off the NY open auctioning up to challenge the Globex High, 56.80s. 
  • Initiative buy programs (IBP) entered at/near 56.70s-56.75s, as buying volume interest continued at the High, implying potential for price discovery higher. 
  • Key Upside Reference Levels including the Avg Daily Range High (58.07s), Overhead Selling Tail (58.45s-58.63s), and the Daily 1st Std Dev High (58.62s). Ultimately, the market auctioned higher to 58.41s, within the Key Overhead Supply Cluster before responsive selling halted the buyside auction.
