with regards to my last trade, it took 1050 Delta Values to bring down price from A to B, and just a few to bring up from B to C with almost the same ticks. This a sign that in this leg shorts were not interested and longs could take control of the PA.

Also, on the 12R chart the market perfectly reversed on the TL

6E IB is clearly on the down side, no trades for pullbacks unless market pickup at midpoint, rather interesting short setup on the break of the IB's low with target on the Lower 1 band
