Debt Ceiling Deal Reached (anybody shocked?) - Now What?

S&P 500 INDEX MODEL TRADING PLANS for TUE. 05/30

Now that the Debt Ceiling drama is apparently over, can the markets continue to be intoxicated on the nVidia-A.I. exuberance and continue the bullish leg or get back to the macro-economic fundamentals of inflation, valuation, china-slowdown (bad news good news here, with hopes of China stimulus?) etc.? A couple of sessions into this shortened week shall reveal. Till then, caution might be warranted on the part of the bulls.

We started last trading week with our trading plans on Monday titled: "Debt Ceiling Deadline Likely to Whipsaw the Markets", and these words: "Expect the approaching debt ceiling deadline to attract both bulls and bears to heightened speculation, resulting in some whipsaw movements until the deadline passes and the dust settles". The dust might be settling this week.

Positional Trading Models: For today, our positional models indicate going short on the close if below 4180, with a 52-point trailing stop.

By definition, positional trading models may carry the positions overnight and over multiple days, and hence assume trading an instrument that trades beyond the regular session, with the trailing stops - if any - being active in the overnight session.

Aggressive/Intraday Models: Our aggressive, intraday models indicate the trading plans below for today.

Aggressive, Intraday Trading Plans for TUE. 05/30:

For today, our aggressive intraday models indicate going long on a break above 4256, 4226, 4203, 4187, or 4156 with a 9-point trailing stop, and going short on a break below 4250, 4218, 4199, 4183, or 4150 with a 9-point trailing stop. 

Models indicate no explicit exits. Models also indicate a break-even hard stop once a trade gets into a 4-point profit level. Models indicate taking these signals from 10:01am ET or later.

By definition the intraday models do not hold any positions overnight - the models exit any open position at the close of the last bar (3:59pm bar or 4:00pm bar, depending on your platform's bar timing convention).

To avoid getting whipsawed, use at least a 5-minute closing or a higher time frame (a 1-minute if you know what you are doing) - depending on your risk tolerance and trading style - to determine the signals.
