$SPY $SPX Pullback to Gap Fill? I've been waiting for a rocket to AMEX:SPY $630 but my monthly tells me that February wants to close red. Here is my daily with a fib that we cant seem to hold above although today we did close above once I have been waiting patiently in this box unlike others, I have constantly reiterated, don't try to be a hero inside of the box. Now that the Box seems to be pushing towards the upside, I can't help but notice we continue printing bearish candles regardless of direction. Today we closed with a Hangman, which begs the question, could we perhaps lean bearish for two of the most bearish weeks of the year in comparison? I'd like to think I'm not wrong here and we will get a spill before anyone gets an expected blow off top. Be careful out there, volatility remains present and the VIX was above the 50DMA last time I checked. If we can get this gap fill and start moving back up, I will be confident in the gap fill being bottom. Seeing as $593 AMEX:SPY alert for bottom never filled, I will have to assume it's still a possibility. Taz out.

Combined US Indexes - Incoming Break or Bounce ?From the previously marked timeline on 18 Feb 2025, just days later, you see the combined US Indexes plummet to cut through the middle decision box (purple), and extrude out below. This formed the double top second peak in essence, and the days following just closed at a two month low. While this might appear Bearish, it is worth noting the lower tails in previous candles which are followed by rallies to the upper resistance. Would this happen the third time? I would beg to differ... In fact, marked out is a critical support point which should be tested in early March. At that point (yellow ellipse), there is a confluence of a previous trend change support, the current TDST and just below that the larger consolidation range support. While the RoVD is slightly bullish, the MACD is dipping with MACD in bearish lower half, and the signal line tapering down towards the boundary into bear territory. In summary, it looks slightly bearish to the critical support point. From there, it would be good to see if it bounces or it breaks down.

SPX Targets Being Hit - More Downside Ahead?SPX & NDX Targets Hit – But More Downside Ahead? | SPX Market Analysis 26 Feb 2025 Is the bear move done, or do we have more downside left? Honestly, who cares when you have a solid process? The bear swing is rolling along nicely, with the first SPX and NDX tranches hitting profit targets. For now, price action is still making lower highs and lower lows, so I’m staying in the bear camp a little longer. But before I think about flipping to bullish trades, I want to see price climb above 5970 and start forming a V-pattern back into the prior range. That said, new trades will be on pause for a few days because my lovely wife has surprised me with a trip to The Lakes! A bit of fresh air, hiking, and spotty internet means I’ll be taking a conservative approach for the rest of the week—but that doesn’t mean I won’t be keeping an eye on things. Let’s break it down. --- Deeper Dive Analysis: The bear swing remains in play, and first targets have been cashed out on both SPX and NDX income swings. Right now, price action continues to show lower highs and lower lows, which keeps me leaning bearish. 📌 Key Market Levels: ✅ SPX breakout target: 5820 – still room for downside ✅ NDX has surpassed multiple breakout targets we discussed in our Fast Forward Mentoring ✅ VIX remains under 20, suggesting no major crash yet, but continued selling is possible For me to flip bullish, I’d want to see: 📌 SPX reclaiming 5970+ 📌 A V-pattern developing back into the prior range 📌 Confirmation that downside momentum is slowing Another reason I’m not rushing into new positions—aside from waiting for confirmation—is that I’ll be in and out of internet connection this week thanks to my wife’s surprise hiking trip to The Lakes! That means I’ll be keeping a more conservative approach, locking in profits where I can and not forcing any trades while I’m away. For now, the plan stays the same: ride the bear swing, cash out at targets, and wait for the next confirmed move before flipping bullish. --- Fun Fact 📢 Did you know? In 2008, Volkswagen briefly became the most valuable company in the world when a short squeeze sent its stock price soaring 400% in just two days—forcing hedge funds to take billions in losses. 💡 The Lesson? Just because a stock (or market) is moving down doesn’t mean it won’t snap violently back up. That’s why having a trade plan is critical—so you’re never caught off guard.

S&P500 Channel Up bottomed. Huge reversal expected.The S&P500 index (SPX) had been trading within a Channel Up pattern since the August 2024 Low and yesterday broke below its 4H MA200 (orange trend-line) for the first time in 20 days. Since January 17, every such break below the 4H MA200 has been a technical buy opportunity. This time it is even stronger as the index appears to be replicating the Channel's first price structure and more specifically Leg (d). What followed after Leg (d) bottomed, was a symmetrical with (b)-(c) +7.05% rise to form a top at (e). The confirmation for this rise came when the 4H MACD formed a Bullish Cross. As a result, we are waiting for this confirmation to continue with additional buying on S&P and target 6330, which would be a +6.22% rise, symmetrical with (b)-(c). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Please LIKE 👍, FOLLOW ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!

Two Possible Trades - Which one will trigger?Two Possible Trades – Which One Will Trigger? | SPX Market Analysis 25 Feb 2025 Monday came in swinging, continuing Friday’s move and landing price right at the range low target. And what do we get? A beautiful V-shaped reaction—just like we discussed in detail during our Fast Forward mentoring call. Now we have two key scenarios unfolding, mirroring what we saw at the upper boundary of the range during the bullish breakout setup. Will we get a bullish turn, or will the market break down? Triggers are set, charts are marked—now we wait. --- Deeper Dive Analysis: Monday continued Friday’s momentum, taking price straight into the range low target, where we saw a classic V-shaped price reaction. While no pulse bars have appeared yet, the location of this reaction is ideal, lining up perfectly with our 6 money-making patterns. This gives us two possible trade setups, similar to what we saw at the upper range boundary during the last breakout assessment. Scenario 1 – The Bullish Turn ✅ V-shaped reaction at a key level ✅ If confirmed, we could see a move back up into the range ✅ Waiting for additional confirmation (pulse bars, momentum shift, etc.) Scenario 2 – The Bearish Breakout ✅ If price breaks below the range low, it confirms a downside move ✅ A clean breakdown could lead to a continuation of bearish momentum ✅ This would be a mirror setup of the bullish breakout from earlier Right now, both triggers are marked up on the charts, waiting for price to confirm the next move. Until then, it’s a watch-and-wait game, keeping an eye on any momentum shifts or additional signals. --- Fun Fact Did You Know the phrase “buy the rumour, sell the news” originated in the 18th century? It was coined to describe the sharp market moves surrounding Napoleon’s defeat at Waterloo. Traders in the know made fortunes buying ahead of the news and selling into the ensuing hype! The phrase became famous when financier Nathan Rothschild supposedly capitalised on early news of Napoleon's defeat in 1815. He bought up British government bonds while others panicked and sold. Once the victory became public, prices soared, making Rothschild a fortune. It’s a timeless reminder to think ahead in the markets.

S&P500: Bottom is close to the 1D MA100. Be ready to buy this.S&P500 just turned bearish on its 1D technical outlook (RSI = 43.037, MACD = 10.020, ADX = 22.686) as it reversed the early gains and is currently on Friday's low levels, getting closer to the 1D MA100. That is the strongest support level in the last 40 days and according to the 1H RSI, the index may be close to a bottom. The 1H Death Cross typically prices the low on this pattern and we expect a reversal starting tomorrow.

/ES - GEX Structure with TPO and SPX GEX insight The structure revisited last week's POC during GLOBEX, followed by position adjustments during the US CASH SESSION. As usual, 99% of the time, this zone oscillates up and down without a clear direction. Respecting the downside levels, the market tested Friday’s low around 6018 to see if it holds, showing no interest in paying anyone. I’m leaning towards a bearish stance as long as we keep trading below 6060/6080. Key Levels: POC Retest (GLOBEX): 6040 Friday’s Low: 6018 Highest Negative NETGEX: 6010 2nd PUT Wall: 5990 3rd PUT Wall: 5965 Single Prints Area: Below 5950 Poor Low Zones: 5920 and below The market remains stuck in a balance area, reacting to these levels while traders adjust positions. Any sustained trade below 6018-5990 could trigger further downside movement, while reclaiming 6060/6080+ may shift the bias back upward. SP:SPX = GEX considerations : 1. GAMMA CONDITION Currently Negative → SPX is in a Put-Dominated Environment, meaning put open interest and volume outweigh calls. Why it matters: Negative gamma means market makers hedge by selling into declines and buying into rallies, increasing volatility. If SPX drops further, dealers must sell more, potentially accelerating downside moves. 2. NET GEX / DEX (Gamma and Delta Exposure) Gamma Exposure (GEX) Since Yesterday: Net GEX decreased by -86.51M (-10.67%), moving from -810.5M to -897M. Since 14:00: Net GEX decreased by -85.33M (-10.51%), now at -897M. Interpretation: A decreasing negative GEX suggests put activity is rising or being adjusted, reinforcing volatility. With negative gamma, dealers hedge in ways that magnify price swings in both directions. Delta Exposure (DEX) Since Yesterday: Net DEX dropped by -47.58B (-4.24%), from 1.12T to 1.07T. Since 14:00: Net DEX decreased by -33.39B (-3.02%), now at 1.07T. Interpretation: The decline in DEX suggests dealers are reducing their long delta exposure, which may indicate hedging pressure in response to market movement. 3. VOLUME & PUT/CALL RATIOS P/C Volume Ratio: Increased to 1.45, indicating more puts being traded than calls. Call Volume (Since Open): 1.14M contracts, up 6.46% since 14:00. Put Volume (Since Open): 1.65M contracts, up 8.24% since 14:00. Interpretation: A Put/Call Ratio of 1.45 signals a strong bearish bias, as traders are buying more puts for downside protection. The increase in put volume confirms that downside hedging is intensifying. Top 5 Strikes by Volume: 6000 Put (128.67K contracts) 6050 Call (77.35K contracts) 6000 Call (71.31K contracts) 6040 Call (68.04K contracts) 5950 Put (67.57K contracts) Interpretation: Heavy put volume at 6000 suggests this is a key support level. Calls at 6050 & 6000 show traders positioning for potential resistance at these levels. 4. PRIMARY LEVELS (Support & Resistance) Call Resistance: 6200 (far above spot price). Call Resistance (0DTE): 6055 (40.8 points above current price). Put Support: 6000 (14.2 points below). Put Support (0DTE): 6010 (4.2 points below). Interpretation: 6000 is a key support level—if broken, expect further selling. Resistance at 6055-6060 means bounces could struggle around this zone. 5. GAMMA FLIP (HVL - High Volatility Level) HVL (Gamma Flip Level): 6095 (80.8 points above). HVL (0DTE): 6050 (35.8 points above). Interpretation: 6095 is the gamma flip zone—above this, gamma could turn positive, leading to more stability. As long as SPX trades below these levels, we remain in a volatile, bearish regime. 6. TOP GEX STRIKE CHANGES Largest Positive Changes (Increased GEX - More Call Exposure): 6020: +10.23M (+24.58%) 6050: +4.01M (+11.83%) 6015: +3.99M (+18.02%) 6045: +3.53M (+23.67%) 6035: +3.51M (+20.02%) Largest Negative Changes (Decreased GEX - More Put Exposure): 6010: -25.9M (-39.22%) 6000: -10.87M (-11.14%) 5990: -7.89M (-23.78%) 5975: -5.33M (-10.53%) 6055: -4.67M (-85.38%) Interpretation: Biggest GEX drop at 6010 and 6000 → weakening support, making downside moves more likely. GEX increase at 6020-6050 → some resistance is building there, potentially capping rallies. OVERALL TAKEAWAYS 📉 Bearish Bias: The negative gamma condition and put-heavy environment suggest increased volatility and downside pressure. Key downside level: 6000—a break could trigger more selling. Resistance zone: 6050-6060—any bounces may struggle here. Dealers are positioned to sell into weakness, reinforcing potential downward momentum.

SPX Finally Moves, Will 6000 Hold?SPX Finally Moves – But Will 6000 Hold? | SPX Market Analysis 24 Feb 2025 Last week’s market action was like watching a cat decide whether to jump off a shelf—hesitation, commitment, regret, and then chaos. SPX pushed through the bull trigger on Wednesday, only to whip back through the hedge & bear trigger, finally showing some real movement on Friday. But before we get too excited, SPX is still stuck inside a larger range, with 6000 as the next key battleground. Will we see a range breakout or another rejection? Let’s dive in. --- Deeper Dive Analysis: SPX Moves – But Is It Just Another Range Play? Last week gave us plenty of action, but SPX hasn’t truly escaped its larger range yet. 📌 What happened last week? SPX broke the bull trigger on Wednesday 🚀 Immediately flipped back through the hedge & bear trigger 🤦‍♂️ Friday’s move finally opened things up 🔓 Now, we’re eying 6000 as the next decision point. 📌 Two potential setups: ✅ Range Reversal – Price rejects 6000 and moves back inside the range ✅ Breakout Trade – SPX clears 6000, confirming a new leg up Either way, I’ll be watching closely for the next trade setup. VIX Says ‘No Crash… Yet’ 📉 The volatility index (VIX) remains below 20, meaning: No imminent crash signals 🛑 Fear is elevated but not panicking Still room for surprises, but not full-blown chaos (yet!) If VIX jumps past 20 and keeps climbing, then we’ll talk about more extreme downside risk. Overnight Futures – A Small Bounce, But No Turn Yet 🌅 Futures are slightly green, but they don’t confirm: A major bullish turn ❌ A full-blown breakdown ❌ Right now, it’s more noise than signal. What’s Next? 📌 I remain bearish on my income swing trades 📉 📌 Waiting for confirmation—either: Bullish reversal (v-shaped price action shift) 🔄 Bearish breakdown (clean range break below 6000) 🚨 For now, it’s another waiting game—but one that could pay off big when the next major move arrives. --- Fun Fact 📢 Did you know? In 2010, the Flash Crash wiped out nearly $1 trillion in market value in just 36 minutes, only to recover almost entirely by the end of the day. The culprit? A single trader’s algorithm running wild. 💡 The Lesson? Sometimes, market chaos isn’t about fundamentals—it’s just a rogue algorithm losing its mind.

Hellena | SPX500 (4H): LONG to 100% Fibo lvl 6214.4.Colleagues, I believe that the upward movement is not over yet and the lower and middle order wave “3” is not yet complete. This is a good chance to go long, but it should be remembered that even though a correction to the uptrend line is possible, I do not recommend selling. The target area is the 6214.4 level area - this is slightly higher than the 100% Fibonacci extension level. Manage your capital correctly and competently! Only enter trades based on reliable patterns!

$SPY short term top downside from $521 to $481AMEX:SPY is looking like it put in a short term top here. I originally only thought that we had the potential to fall to $545 or so, but now looking at the chart, I think we have the possibility of falling farther. The two targets that I'm looking for on the downside are $524.35 and 481.18. Let's see if they get hit over the coming weeks. If they hit, it'll be the ultimate buying opp as I think from there, we're likely to see SPY over $700 in the coming year or two.

SPX: another not-happy FridayMarkets have been playing a bit of a ping-pong game since the start of the year. Uncertainty is never a good world for financial markets, so it was this Friday. In the same week, the S&P 500 reached a fresh, new all time highest level at 6.148 and a significant pull-back on Friday. One of the extremely spooky works since recently are tariffs, which a new US Administration is using too frequently, for the taste of investors. The S&P 500 lost 1,71% at Friday's trading session, while other US indices were also somewhere in this range. The University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment was published during the week, showing not some happy figures about current consumer sentiment. In addition, consumers are expecting further increase in inflation, higher from previous releases. The 5 years inflation expectations currently stands at 3,5%, for which analysts are noting, is the highest level since 1995. The highest contributors to index drop on Friday were tech companies, which are currently ones which hold the highest participation. Other sectors were also affected, however, those related to major supplies were the ones that gained during the week. The consumer sector, healthcare and utilities were the ones that investors bought the most. It was sort of a move toward basics. As analysts are noting, the defensive sectors are the ones which gain during times of fears on future economic growth. The week ahead will be a sensitive one for financial markets, as PCE data are scheduled for a release. The start of the week might bring some relaxation from Friday's negative sentiment, however, it will not be a sign that the positive sentiment is back, but only a sort of short term positioning for PCE data. Depending on final PCE data, a higher move could be expected toward either side. The higher market sensitivity will continue as long as uncertainties are existing either through trade tariffs, or through inflation data.

SPX at a Critical Decision Point: Breakout or Breakdown?The S&P 500 has been respecting this rising channel (green support and red resistance) for an extended period. Currently, price action is testing the mid-range, making this a key level for future movement. Possible Scenarios: 1️⃣ Bullish Continuation → If SPX holds above the green trendline, we could see a breakout towards the upper resistance (red trendline), targeting 7,000+. 2️⃣ Bearish Breakdown → A loss of the trendline support could trigger a correction, potentially sending price towards 5,500 or lower. 🔍 Watch for: ✔️ Confirmation of support holding (bullish signals). ✔️ Breakdown and retest of the green trendline as resistance (bearish signals). ⚡ Trade Idea: • Long on bullish confirmation above trendline. • Short on breakdown + retest of support as resistance.

Market Alert: Potential Downside Ahead! The S&P 500 (SPX) just closed with a strong bearish candle, dropping -104 points (-1.71%), signaling a possible shift in momentum. The index is now testing a key support level near 6,000, and if this level breaks, we could see a sharper pullback. 📉 What’s Happening in the Market? 1️⃣ Rising Interest Rate Concerns – The Federal Reserve remains cautious about inflation, and recent economic data suggests they may keep rates higher for longer. This puts pressure on equities, especially high-growth stocks. 2️⃣ Earnings Season Uncertainty – Many companies are reporting mixed earnings, with some missing expectations. Weak guidance from major corporations could fuel more downside. 3️⃣ Geopolitical Tensions & Market Volatility – Ongoing global uncertainties, such as geopolitical conflicts and supply chain disruptions, are adding risk-off sentiment to the market. 4️⃣ Technical Breakdown Risks – The SPX is currently sitting near critical support at 6,000. If this level fails, we could see further selling pressure toward 5,920 - 5,880 and possibly as low as 5,773. 🔥 What to Watch Next? ✅ Can the market hold 6,000 and bounce? Or will sellers push prices lower? ✅ Watch for reactions around 6,068 - 6,100—if the index struggles here, more downside is likely. ✅ Increased volatility means risk management is key—stay cautious, and don’t chase trades! ⚠️ Bottom Line: The market is at a turning point. If downside momentum continues, we could see a bigger correction. Stay alert and manage risk accordingly!
