Summary:  While there still is room for lower movement, we are in territory for a reversal and don't wish to miss the pop.  Begin a moderate scaling in....

Context:

Looming debt refinancing ahead.

Theory: 

1) DOGE & Congress to clean up the budget

Task - Reckon when to buy the dip and don't miss the pop.

Factors

1) We are in the range of historical pullbacks

2a) Examination of the ES, NQ & YM suggests additional pullback (small)

2b) Examination finds at the bottom of recent HVA

2c) Historically, sell off lasted a bit longer then present (2a)

3) Rumor: Proposal to lower interest rates circulating
