2. Not triggering either bias signal at 10:15 would be "no-bias," and the bias signals should define the bias environment''s range.
-- A test of the opposite bias signal would be targeted if one bias signal was tested before triggering no-bias.
3. Touching the bias signal within 3 minutes either way of 10:15 would invoke a grace period through 10:30 to trigger a late signal.
-- "Late" signals don''t require testing the opposite bias signal, but it''s still likely.
4. Still testing the bias signal at 10:30 after invoking the grace period would trigger "noN-bias," with no bias influence.

Proper context can start the day with a solid win and make all the difference.

Through the prior close...
Tuesday''s open had to put up, or shut-up. Recall that Monday afternoon''s buyers hadn''t gained traction for their efforts and the afternoon''s 2099.75 bias-up target had been met. So Tuesday morning wasn''t going to extend Monday''s rally without gapping up. And Tuesday''s open didn''t gap up. The open''s dip to 2093.75 was recovered to 2100.00, filling the gap back up to Monday''s close. The balance of the session trended down to probe just under the morning''s low attacking 2090.00.

Overnight action''s new info...
Last night''s flat narrow open eventually surged up to 2098.00, perhaps because China wasn''t crashing another 10{faed0d6dca04cec8b6b7985efddb9b0651107a3aebb05f69f0166038b8c951f6} at its open. The balance of the night has trended down, fulfilling Tuesday afternoon''s potential to 2088.00. Eventually plunging through it to 2085.00 triggered a 7-1/2 point reaction up. A fresh low at 2084.00 has reacted up 7 points. That''s a lot of choppiness for just several hours, all centered around 2088.00.

If, then...
Despite trending down throughout, Tuesday afternoon''s sellers didn''t gain traction for their efforts in the same way that Monday''s buyers had failed to entrench their rally. The afternoon bias environment''s exit at 2:30 was within the noon hour''s range, and the final hour''s entry at 3:00 was within the bias environment''s range. Similarly, gapping down is the only way to extend Tuesday afternoon''s decline. Here is where the examples may diverge, because a gap down IS currently indicated. But the gap must be maintained to indicate that new sponsorship has actually arrived. And "lower prior highs" around 2088.00 can still cause a gap down to reverse sharply.

First Trade...
Exiting the open at 9:45 above 2088.00 would be unlikely to trigger the 2086.00 bias-down signal at 10:15. Exiting the open under 2083.50 would be likely to trigger bias-down. Exiting the open above 2099.25 would be likely to trigger the 2096.25 bias-up signal.

Fast-evolving open quickly fulfills its parameters.

The open was greeted back at the 2084.00 overnight low. A couple of ticks deeper, actually. And soon -- very, very soon -- multiple points. The opening 15 minutes of volatility was testing 2077.75, down 16 points on the day.

A 3-point plunge to 2074.75 was recovered enough to test the 2080.50 bias-down target at 10:15. It was still being overlapped, so the bias-down target wasn''t renewed. Neither did it hold. Extending down any lower would target 2073.00, and it was tested down to 2071.00.

Now, a consolidation around 2073.00 has resolved down to within ticks of the next lower objective at 2067.25. And 2063.00 is below it. RSIs have improved on each lower low, so recovering 2073.00-2077.00 into the noon hour could disrupt the decline.

Today''s WedEX indicator is threatening to trigger actively bearish. This afternoon''s FOMC Minutes is a big enough catalyst that it''s possible to recover 2077.50 and possible qualify WedEX as passively bullish.

In fact, RSIs just diverged positively at 2068.25. Back above 2071.25 would signal momentum reversing up. The trend otherwise remains down.

A daily summary of high-profile members of several complexes... View a more detailed discussion of each chart at the end of today''s Market Wrap.

Eurodollar Sep Contract (EC, ETF: (FXE, UUP))
Tuesday''s close under 1.1075 was retraced ahead of Wednesday''s FOMC news, which triggered a spike up to 1.1120 resistance. Not rejecting its recovery would target 1.1220 (not 1.2250) before another sell signal could be considered.

Gold Dec Contract (GC, ETF: (GLD))
Recovering Tuesday back above the 1112.00 pullback limit despite Silver''s problem meant Gold intended to resume its rally. Gapping up Wednesday to last Wednesday''s high and trending through it to test 1131.50 helped to confirm the 1144.00 target remains intact. Now the 1121.50-1125.50 consolidation at last Wednesday''s "lower prior high" must hold as support to maintain the rally''s momentum.

Silver Sep Contract (SI, ETF: (SLV))
Coming within 2 cents of its 14.65 pullback objective Tuesday proved sufficient to at least try resuming the rally. Wednesday''s gap up extended sharply to and through 14.90 whose recovery suggests the rally has resumed.

30-year Treasury Sep Contract (US, ETF: (TLT))
Similar to testing the 158-26 buy signal only temporarily intraday Monday, Wednesday morning probed under the 157-14 sell signal before reacting back up through it to retest 158-26.

Crude Oil Sep Contract (CL, ETF: (USO, USL) (UWTI-long, DWTI-short))
Identifying a buy signal Tuesday also meant the decline must resume with little further delay if it were going to resume at all. Wednesday''s fresh lows testing 40.45 now need only a second consecutive lower close to confirm 37.15 is in-play.

Natural Gas Aug Contract (NG, ETF: (UNG, UNL))
Thursday''s EIA report is being greeted from a position of weakness at or under 2.70-2.73, with a third lower close being likely.
