Condition 1

down

Condition 0
open 1% higher but in range

Thoughts
We see coverings, but they are very small in this downmove
Sellers seem to absorb them
Do not expect a larger covering, wait until one happens

yesterdays value is clean higher

market could be in waiting mode today
or it could get a news trigger

Do not commit to bigger ideas
Trade small scallps

Condition 1
5 day balance

Condition 0
open with big gap up

Thoughts
Market was not able to push lower and now consequently sees some covering
As always, anythign can happen
1) more covering
2) sellers respond to higher prices
3) balance

Condition 1
yesterday we broke out of balance

Condition 0
open with small gap up

Is the low in?
We donīt know. One day does not make a market, but for now the daily is up
I would see change not before we see acceptance back in the balance area

Condition 1
Yesterdays break brings the daily back in balance

Condition 0
we spent eth in the lower distibution
we open bnear y low

Thoughts
For me this is no clear inflection on the daily
If it would be we should sell off stronger and continue in eth
Which does not mean that we do not continue down
It just means i have no bias
