Or How I Learned to Stop Shorting and Love the Fed.
This channel will be the range the SPY travels within for May, until a breakout on either side. A breakdown would likely mean consolidation, but NOT a bearish signal unless carried by momentum, which seems gone now that the Fed is buying ETFs. There are plenty of support levels to keep the SPY sideways rather than down.
On the other hand, a break upwards out of the channel would represent a breakout back to last year levels. I doubt this will happen. At some point the trend must end, and will have to consolidate, whether that means going sideways for a bit or consolidating to the major levels. Personally, I doubt we can revisit the 220 lows unless wave 2 turns out to be a worse disaster than wave 1.
Major Levels: 286, 280, 272, 264.
Support: 246, 220
Resistance: 295, 313

I turned them off because I wanted a clearer picture of the trend, try it for yourself.
