PTG Market Recap – Wednesday September 17, 2025
Cycle Day 2 – In a single day fulfilled the decrease TZ 6655–6650 with a purchase response.
Line within the Sand: 6675 held as the important thing battleground all day, appearing like “insect repellent” for bulls.
Morning Session:
Quiet chop pre-FOMC.
Manny reminded: “FOMC day is just not for heroes. Half measurement.”
RSPR/white dot discussions stored the classroom buzzing whereas merchants sat tight.
FOMC Fireworks (2 PM):
Fed delivered anticipated reduce; dissent from Miran who wished 50 bps.
Projections: one other 50 bps in 2025, 25 in 2026, 25 in 2027.
Preliminary bull goal zone 6685–6695 tagged, then a pointy flush again to CD2 violation low 6641 earlier than rebounding.
Quick tape triggered reminders: SOH = Sitting on Palms for these not synced with rhythm.
Afternoon Session:
Presser turbulence—“JPOW dropping the PR battle.”
Nachos and “Clear Air Turbulence” analogies stored spirits gentle.
Bulls struggled with the 6675 LIS, by no means absolutely reclaiming with conviction.
MOC confirmed a $1.1B purchase imbalance, fueling a late squeeze try.
Ultimate Notes:
A real “Wild Experience Clyde” FOMC day.
Merchants joked about T-shirts: “I Survived the Fed.”
Again to regular rhythms tomorrow.
