futures are entering a critical transition phase as we approach the end of 2025. The Variable Changing Price Momentum Indicator (VC PMI) framework identifies a clear reversion from the Buy 1 Daily ($3,937) and Buy 1 Weekly ($3,973) zones, with current price action sustaining above the VC PMI Daily mean of $3,991. This structural recovery confirms that the market has rebalanced from deeply oversold conditions, initiating a new mean reversion sequence toward the upper resistance bands of $4,055 (Sell 1) and $4,106 (Sell 2).
The 5-day pattern shows price momentum turning up following a sharp retracement from the $4,171.5 high. The reclaim of $4,000 is a pivotal inflection, supported by improving MACD convergence on the 15-minute chart. This signals diminishing downside energy and the early formation of a cyclical base.
Fibonacci and VC PMI Confluence
The retracement structure from the recent $4,171.5 high to $3,901.3 low produces a textbook harmonic reversion map. The 23.6% retracement ($4,016) has been reclaimed, confirming the first leg of a broader recovery. The 38.2% retracement ($4,090) corresponds directly with the VC PMI mean, where equilibrium is re-establishing. A sustained breakout above this level would shift the probability bias toward $4,086 (50% retracement) and $4,150 (61.8% retracement)—both of which align with Sell 2 resistance targets.
The next upside confluence lies at $4,210, marking a potential 360-degree harmonic extension from the current base. This level corresponds to the upper resistance of the current weekly distribution, where both price and time harmonics synchronize with the 60- and 90-day cycles.
Time Cycle Structure: 30–60–90–360 Day Outlook
- 30-Day Cycle (Nov 29, 2025): Marks the first short-term pivot window, likely to confirm continuation toward $4,100–$4,150.
- 60-Day Cycle (Dec 29, 2025): Overlaps with the year-end reversion crest; targets $4,210 if bullish momentum persists.
- 90-Day Cycle (Jan 28, 2026): Expected corrective rotation before the next major advance.
- 360-Day Cycle (Sep 28, 2026): Long-term bullish harmonic expansion projecting new all-time highs beyond $4,500 if pattern symmetry holds.
These harmonics align with Gann’s time geometry, suggesting a sustained bullish phase into early 2026 before a major rebalancing occurs.
Strategy & Conclusion
Holding above the VC PMI mean ($3,991) keeps the short-term trend neutral-to-bullish, with a target zone at $4,055–$4,106. A weekly close above $4,016 confirms upside momentum. Long positions from $3,937–$3,991 remain favorable, with stop-losses under $3,973 (Weekly Buy 1).
The 30- and 60-day cycles suggest a gradual appreciation toward $4,210 into year-end. Any correction into the $3,990–$3,950 zone remains a buying opportunity under the VC PMI mean reversion framework.
