A trader notes a stacked buying imbalance zone at 365.00-365.50. Later, a pullback bar with a delta of -600 returns price to 365.25.
Should the trader still consider a long entry at the zone?
- No, the negative delta on the pullback bar invalidates the bullish thesis.
- Yes, the trade is valid if the footprint at the zone itself shows bid volume declining and buy imbalances re-emerging.
- No, a pullback must have neutral delta to be considered 'Safe' for entry.
- Yes, but only if the cumulative delta for the entire day is still positive.
