Adding to the $JPM read: Not always the case but price now testing a wall of call open interest likely upside resistance (Blue bars). Two independent signals pointing the same direction = higher conviction setup.
$WMT update - for those wondering about the trade we closed at $75 on Monday:
7 trading days after our June 9 upside exhaustion call, $WMT has now broken below the June 9 price (-1.4%).
The temporary top thesis is fully playing out. If we'd held, that $75 would be substantially larger.
But we rotated that capital into $JPM, which is also playing out (Day 1: -1.3%).
Patience pays. Taking profits and rotating pays too. Both can be right.
The bigger picture : our June 9 identification was correct. The model called the top, and price has confirmed it 7 trading days later. Identification is the edge. Execution is the choice.
Today's Directional Pressure Model scan:
Upside exhaustion: $JPM (higher conviction).
$JPM bullish pressure at the 100th percentile
Interesting how this plays out.
Not financial advice.
$FCX -6.7% at the open today.
Cumulative move since ThetaZone's model flagged exhaustion on May 13: roughly -8% across 2 sessions since our model identified it The directional read continues to play out.
Correction: $AVGO reports earnings today. The Directional Pressure Model isn't built to analyze pre-earnings setups, where event risk overrides the normal pressure dynamics.
Pulling $AVGO from today's scan. $CSCO and $GOOG readings stand.
Our Directional Pressure Model is reading exhaustion at on three names today: $AVGO and $CSCO on the upside, $GOOG on the downside. Interesting how this plays out.

Directional Pressure Model scan today:
At upside exhaustion: $AMT · $DEO.
At downside exhaustion: $ADM · $RGLD
The levels where the historical pressure pattern runs out of steam.
The model does what it's built to do.
$FCX flagged yesterday at the Directional Pressure Model's exhaustion threshold. Today: at -2.5%.
Watching how this resolves.
Following the earlier $FCX flag - bullish pressure has touched the 100th percentile of its 12-month range. The level historically marks exhaustion of the upside push.
Watching how this resolves. Not financial advice.
ThetaZone's Directional Pressure Model flagged $FCX as potentially exhausted on the upside today. The pressure-line signature is similar to setups the model has flagged before. Watching from here.
