Trump's Auto Tariffs Shake Things Up on Wall StreetTrump's tariffs are clearly not going away. In fact, he's upped the ante with a 25% tariff on all non-US cars, vowed to target pharmaceuticals and promised more are to come on April 2nd. Given the dire weakness in consumer sentiment data, I suspect Wall Street indices may have seen a swing high.

S&P500 - Donald Trump Is Crashing Markets!S&P500 ( TVC:SPX ) is starting a correction:
Click chart above to see the detailed analysis👆🏻
Since Donald Trump was elected the markets have been super volatile and clearly not too easy to trade. But now it seems like bears are slowly taking over the entire U.S. stock market after we just saw a drop of -10% within a couple of days and a correction becomes more and more likely.
Levels to watch: $6.100, $4.800

S&P500: Recovered the 1W MA50. Best buy opportunity of 2025.The S&P500 is marginally neutral on its 1D technical outlook (RSI = 47.606, MACD = -47.070, ADX = 35.637) as it is in the process of recovery from the previous oversold condition. What the index did recover however, and which is a massive buy signal, is the 1W MA50. Technically this trendline held two weeks ago, despite marginally crossing under it, and provided the basis for a new long term bottom. Basically it is the exact same pattern as the October 23rd 2023 bottom, which was also a HL on the 3 year Channel Up, declined also by -11% and the 1W RSI was almost on the same level as today's low (the S1 level).
Every bullish wave inside this 3 year pattern hit at least the 2.0 Fibonacci extension. Given that this bottom was made on the 0.618 Channel Fib level, like both of the last two HL (Aug 5th 2024, April 15th 2024), we expect a test of the Channel's top by the end of the year. A TP = 6,700 would still be under the 2.0 Fib extension and that's out long term target.

S&P 500 eases back from 200-dayThe S&P 500 has been on an impressive two-week rally but is now encountering a crucial resistance zone. The index is currently testing resistance near the 200-day moving average and a previous support level in the 5770-5800 range. This key area, highlighted in grey on the chart, could determine whether the recent bullish momentum continues.
Meanwhile, support is found around 5695-5670, marked in blue on the chart. This zone is significant as it previously served as the launch point for the post-election rally before it lost steam. Reclaiming this level is a bullish signal, but the S&P 500 needs to stay above it through to next week to maintain its upward trajectory.
If support at 5695-5670 fails, the bulls could face serious headwinds. A breakdown at this level may trigger renewed selling pressure, similar to the declines seen in previous weeks. The situation could worsen if the index falls below 5600, which was Friday’s low, when a hammer candle was formed.

SPAIN 35 Trending Higher – Will It Reach 13,912?OANDA:ESPIXEUR has broken above the key resistance level within the ascending channel, signaling potential bullish continuation. This breakout suggests that buyers are in control, and price could now look to retest the previous resistance as support before continuing toward the upper boundary of the channel.
If price confirms support at this level, we could see a push toward the 13,912 target, aligning with the upper boundary of the channel. This move would reinforce the ongoing bullish structure and offer a buy opportunity for traders looking to capitalize on the momentum toward the upper boundary.
However, if the price fails to hold above the previous resistance and falls back into the range, it could indicate a false breakout, potentially leading to a deeper retracement toward the trendline support. Traders should look for bullish confirmation signals, such as a successful retest with strong buying pressure or bullish candlestick patterns, before entering long positions.
Do you agree with this setup, or do you see any alternative scenarios? Let’s discuss! 🚀
NASDAQ: Short term Channel Up on critical Resistance.Nasdaq is neutral on its 1D technical outlook (RSI = 49.418, MACD = -276.610, ADX = 37.535) as it has recovered from the oversold state of 2 weeks ago. By doing so, it has formed a Channel Up on the 1H timeframe but as the price hit its top and the 1H RSI has formed a bearish divergence like the previous HH, it is possible to see a quick pullback. As long as the price stays inside the Channel Up, target the 1H MA200 (TP = 19,900). If it crosses above the top of the Channel Up, buy and target the R1 level (TP = 20,650).

Spy Outlook - Two Key Scenarios to Watch this WeekHello everyone, I’m theCafeTrader — hope you all had a great weekend.
Currently, SPY is sitting near the tail end of a supply zone around 569.57 . So far, it hasn’t shown strong conviction to push through this area, which likely reflects a lack of buying interest rather than heavy absorption by sellers.
In this post, I’ve outlined two scenarios for how you might approach trading SPY this week. As you’ve probably noticed, we’re sitting right in the middle of the broader range . I’ve marked out both light and heavy supply and demand zones — these will be critical for spotting clean entry opportunities.
Remember, liquidity moves markets , and we want to be on the right side of the move with strong entries.
⸻
Scenario 1: Break Above Supply
If we open or gap above the current supply , and price holds that level , I can see SPY pushing up toward 584 , encountering some light supply on the way.
The play might look like this:
• SPY runs up to 576 , hesitates slightly (possible minor rejection),
• Finds a bidder and continues to 584 , where heavier selling pressure is likely waiting.
That would be the ideal short entry , with a little room for volatility, aiming for a move back down into a new demand zone (not yet formed or shown here).
⸻
Scenario 2: Rejection and Roll Over
If we reject this supply zone and roll over , watch for price to cut through demand again and test the big buyers near 549.50 .
I’m especially interested in longs in that area. Even if price dips a bit further, there’s extreme demand at 540 , though I’d prefer to keep a tight stop so I can reposition quickly if needed.
From there, I think we could catch a strong bid and rally back up to 584 .
⸻

The Dow Jones Industrial Average (US30) 23 MARCH 2025The Dow Jones Industrial Average (US30) is currently trading within a well-defined ascending channel, maintaining its long-term bullish structure. Price recently tested the lower boundary of the channel, aligning with a strong demand zone around 40,892 - 40,053, and is now showing signs of a potential reversal. The smart money concept (SMC) perspective suggests that institutions may have accumulated positions at this level, preparing for a bullish move toward the 44,500 - 44,800 supply zone. If price sustains above 42,000, buyers could take control, targeting liquidity above previous highs.
From a supply and demand standpoint, the 40,892 - 40,053 level acted as a key demand zone, where buyers aggressively stepped in to defend the trend. The next area of interest is the 44,502 - 44,809 supply zone, which aligns with historical resistance. If price reaches this level, we may see profit-taking or a potential rejection. However, a break above 44,809 would indicate bullish continuation toward new all-time highs.
On the fundamental side, several factors support a potential bullish move. Federal Reserve policy remains a key driver; if the Fed signals rate cuts later in 2025 due to slowing inflation, equities could rally further, benefiting the Dow. Additionally, US economic resilience, strong labor markets, and robust earnings from industrial and financial sectors could provide further upside momentum. On the downside, risks remain from geopolitical tensions, trade wars, and inflation concerns, which could create volatility and potential corrections.
Given these factors, a long trade setup appears favorable. The ideal entry point would be near 42,000, aligning with trendline support and demand. A stop-loss below 40,800 would protect against an unexpected bearish break. Take-profit targets include 44,500 (supply zone) and 44,800 (liquidity sweep level), where price may face resistance. However, if price fails to hold 42,000, a deeper retracement toward 38,473 could be possible before the next bullish impulse.
Would you like me to refine this setup further with risk management and position sizing details? 🚀

S&P 500 Daily Chart Analysis For Week of March 21, 2025Technical Analysis and Outlook:
During the course of this week's trading session, the S&P 500 achieved the designated target for the Inner Index Rally at 5576, which occurred midweek. This target was accompanied by considerable volatility, ultimately hindering upward movement. On the week's final trading day, the index experienced a notable decline, resulting in a significant drop that reached our critical target, Mean Support, at 5603.
Consequently, the index is now poised to target a retest of the Inner Index Rally level 5712, with a subsequent potential target identified at the Mean Resistance level 5840. It is essential to consider that upon reaching the Inner Index Rally target of 5712, a decrease in the current price level is anticipated, which may lead to a retest of the Mean Support at 5601. Furthermore, an extended decline is possible to revisit the completed Outer Index Dip at 5520 before the resumption of an upward rally.
Potential bearish drop?Dow Jones (US30) has rejected off the pivot and could drop to the 50% Fibonacci support.
Pivot: 42,208.96
1st Support: 41,442.18
1st Resistance: 42,990.92

SP500- Don't be fooled by yesterday's pumpThe markets reacted strongly to Jerome Powell's latest commentary, sparking a notable rally. However, traders should be cautious before assuming this marks the beginning of a new uptrend. While there has been a slight shift in market structure, the broader trend remains intact. Overlooking the strength of the next resistance level could prove to be a costly mistake.
The Big Picture: S&P 500 Daily Chart Analysis
Examining the TRADENATION:US500 posted daily chart, the key question is: has the trend truly reversed? While a green-bodied candle signals some bullish momentum, SP500 remains below critical resistance levels. Notably, it closed beneath what I call the "Do or Die" zone—an area that aligns with prior lows and, more importantly, the daily 200 SMA. This suggests that what we’re seeing could be a lower high forming within the broader downtrend.
Hourly Outlook:
On the hourly chart, we see a strong reversal from 5500, but the move appears corrective rather than impulsive. It seems to be forming an ABC-style correction, with the market currently in wave C. Calculating the potential top of wave C, we find it aligns perfectly with a key resistance level and the 200-day SMA.
Conclusion:
While we may see some upside heading into the end of the week, I believe this rally will be short-lived. Once SP retests the broken support—now acting as resistance—I expect the downward trend to resume, with my target remaining at 5200 (as previously discussed).
