Weekly Outlook

▸A full reversal week, structurally. Weekly High (4,220.56) is literally last week's WOR High, set before the mid-week breakdown. Weekly Low (3,958.07) printed during Thursday's expansion. Close (4,081.42) landed lower-middle of the 262-pip range — net bearish, but the back half showed real recovery character.

▸Weekly Low and MEQ4 are now the same level. 1.09 pips apart — a weekly-tier number and a monthly-tier number landing on top of each other. The single most important structural fact heading into next week.

▸Last week's EQ1/2/3 expansion grid is retired. That cycle tracked the break of the prior Weekly Low and closed at this Friday bell. MEQ4/5/6 carries forward unchanged — monthly structure isn't reset by a weekly close.

▸This week corrected the methodology, not just the levels. Price action now leads, the PD Stack Rule measures consistently from PDM/PDC (no more cherry-picking the tightest extreme), and M15 zone reading is back alongside EMA-equipped H1/H4 charts.

▸COT meaningfully stale. Still shows data "as of June 9," unchanged since last check. Two weekly releases appear missing entirely. Weekly bias conflict stays unresolved for a second straight week.

▸Weekly budget resets: 0/2. Monday watch-only. First live entry Tuesday with the full corrected methodology — and the Weekly Low/MEQ4 confluence — in play from day one.

No Signal Yet — Monday Watch Only

▸Monday forms the WOR (Weekly Opening Range) — no entries per standing rule. WOR High/Low/Mid lock at Monday's close, frozen for the week alongside the new quartiles.

▸First live signal fires Tuesday, built off Monday's EOD numbers + full chart set (M15 with zones, H1/H4 with EMAs), under this week's corrected methodology — price action first, quartiles pin the entry, PD levels confirm.

▸Level to watch: 3,958–3,959 — new Weekly Low and standing MEQ4 are now essentially the same number. If price revisits this area, weekly and monthly structure agree.

▸Weekly budget: 0/2 — resets fresh for the week of June 29.

Trading week note: Friday July 3 is a full US market holiday (July 4 falls on Saturday). NFP shifts to Thursday per standard BLS practice when the first Friday of the month is a holiday — meaning the week's biggest data point lands the day before the close, not the usual first Friday. Effectively a 4-day trading week.
