0DTE Analyst, Option Pit

Crude is lower this morning and bond yields were trading higher earlier in the session. Watch the RSI on the ten year move back below 70 which is a sell signal on the yields. We then will resume our rally. Below $7754.75 we will trade down to the 50 day moving average which needs to hold.
