Chris,
impulsive bid; rather than (just) breaking the level, sellers hitting the strength and a fake move thru that level
relative size and context
a break of the level i sited would alter a cuple things
all "things" are my perspective
the first thing is the context is not just an hourly or moment by moment play, rather, against the daily downtrend, the weekly downtrend, a cyclical downtrend in commodities, a probable monthly and quarterly downtrend in metals...another component maybe total liquidity, if participation is low it doesnt necessarily bode well for either side of the liquidity game (buy-side liquidity or sell-side liquidity and these two things are unknown to me, so, given the weekly context, i wanna be pdq at altering my opinion when i'm long)
so if we're to see a swing north of any significance there should be a distinct traffic in one direction at distinct levels where STO's are forced to cover and BTO's are pressing the game and in the scheme of things 1107 to 1075 is a pretty small range and deep pockets arent going to frig around playing subtle.....
so relatively speaking we should be looking like someone pressed the panic button on the way up like it was on the way down with specific levels that are going to be markers...in a decent upswing the impulsive moves have sellers in them with old emotive logic, this gang is opening small STO's and some players getting out at best available price...but they get consumed like tony montana snorting his final line...
but, like russian dolls and games within games and all that stuff, there are some levels that scream if-you-take-me-out-i'm-a-cheap-date
we havent done that......yet...working in both camps favour is that now we're in an inside game, building pressure
....and it;s a game that should be considered thus: if youre wrong GTFO !!

what's clear in my noggin is probably like mud in yours, so, prompt away....everything's a learning curve
