Notes: Greater than expected gain in supply from the forecast caused a large short spike and 2nd peak with a large but slow developing reversal. All 3 SMAs were crossed near the origin, then the PP Pivot was crossed about halfway down the :31 bar and the S1 Pivot was crossed near the bottom. After a retracement for 54 ticks on the :34 bar, the 2nd peak claimed another 10 ticks beyond the initial spike on the :42 bar. Then the reversal achieved 133 ticks over an hour later after going sideways for 45 min just above the S1 Pivot and on the 50 SMA.
