1️⃣ Overview & Key Data

It’s NFP Friday — buckle up.
We’re watching:

• 🧾 Non-Farm Payrolls

• 📈 Average Hourly Earnings

• 📉 Unemployment Rate

All drop before the open. Expect volatility spikes, wide spreads, and sharp reversals around the data. Patience > Prediction today.

2️⃣ Recap of Previous Day

Thursday gave us an 80-point balanced range — a textbook two-sided auction:

• Price hovered near Wednesday’s single print

• Tested highs, rejected, and settled midrange
  → Perfect structure leading into NFP.

3️⃣ 10-Day Volume Profile

• Still One Time Framing Up (OTFU)

• Holding above 5429.25 POC

• Price is coiling inside the 5672 cluster zone
  → Bulls are defending structure, but momentum is thinning.

4️⃣ Weekly & Daily Structure

• Weekly: Double distribution forming between 5562–5672

• Daily: Sitting right on top of the value zone
  → The reaction to this clustered volume shelf will set next week’s tone.

5️⃣ Order Flow & Delta (2H)

• Neutral flow Thursday — no side took full control

• Buyers respected VWAP

• Globex ticked higher, but flow is waiting for a trigger

6️⃣ NY TPO & Session Structure

• NY closed below value around 5650

• Globex has rallied slightly into yesterday’s single print zone
  → A clean open above 5630 = bulls might push continuation.

7️⃣ 1-Hour Chart & Strike Prices

• Tightened strikes around 5670 and 5600

• Price sitting near mid-pivot with no clear breakout yet
  → Watch 5630–5653 for the next directional clue.

8️⃣ Game Plan: Bulls vs. Bears

📌 Line in the Sand (LIS): 5630
(Previous NY VAL + weekly high-volume shelf)

🟢 Bullish Plan
→ Entry: Above 5630
→ Targets: 5653 → 5674 → 5700

🔴 Bearish Plan
→ Entry: Below 5608
→ Targets: 5588 → 5555 → 5525

9️⃣ Final Thoughts & Reminders

This is not the day to rush in.
News will swing the market — wait for the reaction, not the headline.
✅ If you’ve had a green week, don’t let FOMO eat your edge.
✅ Let the setups come to you.
✅ Respect volatility and protect your capital.
