Trading Strategy
Weekend Headlines: Be prepared for anything related to the Iran/Israel situation. This news will dominate market reaction.
Adaptability is Key: Market conditions could change rapidly, prioritize flexibility and risk management.
Sunday Open: Focus on how the market opens and reacts to the news. Large gaps are possible in either direction.
Long Opportunities: Due to the high risk, only consider longs after the initial reaction and if a stable support zone forms. Potential bids at 5163, reclaiming 5155, or (depending on the open) reclaiming 5177. Emphasis on failed breakdowns.
Short Opportunities: Look for backtests of any breakdown levels if a strong sell-off occurs. Potentially 5177, 5219, or 5228 if those levels are reached.
Knife-Catch Mode: If necessary, use the knife-catch protocol for longs, with small size and emphasis on failed-breakdowns.
Bull Case
De-escalation: A move towards de-escalation or resolution of the Iran situation could lead to a sharp rebound.
Reclaiming 5177: If 5177 is reclaimed with acceptance above, bulls may drive a recovery towards targets of 5195, 5202, 5219.
Bear Case
Escalation of Conflict: Continued escalation of tensions could lead to a significant market sell-off.
Breakdown of 5163: A failure of 5163 opens up downside targets. Watch for a bounce/failed breakdown, then consider shorting for a move down the levels.
