XLK vs SPY shows key break throughThe tech sectors sell off we experienced over the past month looks to be coming to a close
In multiple tech giant ETFS (XLK and SMH) are seeing breakthoughs of the past months violent sell off
comparing XLK/SPY we see that the recent downtrend has broken
The pair setup had reached level of support which it hit this time last year
Since September is typically a rough month we should not expect any big rallies during the next month or so.
Do not expect any rally to start until atleast October possibly early November
Anticipate market trades flat overall for next month or so.

SPY/QQQ Plan Your Trade for 8-12 : SPY 10 Min Flagging/BreakoutThis update shows you why I believe the SPY will resolve the current Flag formation into an upward price trend.
The Vortex Rally base will likely continue to setup over the next 5+ days. But the 531-532 level on the SPY is proving to be a strong support area and as long as this level is not broken - we should see the SPY attempt to rally back above 545-550.
It is all about timing the move and staying patient while the SPY/QQQ settle near this base.
I'll continue to post more updates as price trends.

SPY/QQQ Plan Your Trade Update For 8-12: Vortex Base Building This is a quick update suggesting that the upward momentum in the US markets appears to be fairly strong. But I urge my followers to stay cautious.
The markets are not "cleared for lift-off" yet. We still have numerous Fibonacci resistance levels to break, and we could see the markets move into a broad sideways FLAG formation or break downward again to establish a deeper low.
Within this video, I share what I believe is essential for the markets to move into a confirmed "lift-off" mode.
Please be patient. If we stay patient and protect capital, there will be many opportunities for big swing trades.

SPY/QQQ Plan Your Trade For 8-12: Gap/Breakaway PatternWatch this video to learn why the Vortex Rally is building a base and why it is important that price stay above the 0.382 and 0.50 Fibonacci price levels as the base forms.
You'll see how these Fibonacci price structures are key components to all of my research and how to use them efficiently.
Fibonacci Price Theory teaches us price is always attempting to reach new highs and/or new lows. Additionally, price moves in only two modes : Trending or Flagging.
When you completely understand the mechanics of price and how price attempts to operate (see above), then you can pick apart charts very easily.
Currently, price is moving higher (establishing new higher highs) and may attempt to break through the downward 0.382 & 0.50 ceilings as the Vortex Rally base continues to build.
Stay cautious this week as we may see extended price volatility. There will be a huge opportunity (sweet spot) for traders over the next 60+ days to catch more of this big Vortex Rally phase.

NVDIA BULLS! DON'T FART TOO LOUDLY. IT'S TOO STUFFYhe AI boom is reaching the sort of lofty heights that characterised history’s great bubbles, from the Dutch tulip mania to the dotcom bust at the turn of the millennium. Investors have now determined that Nvidia alone is worth more than the entire annual output of Spain. Add in the tech companies expected to profit most from the AI revolution — Nvidia along with Amazon, Apple, Alphabet, Meta, Tesla, and Microsoft — and the so-called Magnificent Seven are together valued at more than the stock markets of every other country on the planet. The American stock market’s spectacular performance over the last year, up more than a fifth, has been driven almost entirely by these seven companies.
We’ve been here before, many times. New technologies often produce bubbles — railways in the 19th century, automobiles and radios in the 1920s, the internet in the 1990s and now the AI boom, which was triggered by Open AI’s launch of ChatGPT late in 2022. Driving any bubble is the same conviction that the new technology will revolutionise the economy, combined with the fact that nobody can be sure just how it will do that. So narratives of transformation become self-sustaining, as the stock’s rise draws in ever more investors eager to join the ride, creating a self-propelling upward cycle.
In time, all bubbles burst, earlier or later.
$SPY 8/12 - 8/16- Massive panic sell off last week and a quick quick recovery BUT we are still overall red for the month
- If price makes higher highs above $534 lvls we most likely will keep pushing higher so we will look for calls
- IF price rejects and starts to make lower lows as well as retest previous demand zones then we should look for puts
- KEEP IN MIND there is PPI 8/13, CPI 8/14, and Retail sales + Unemployment 8/15
- Earnings for Retail Companies are next week as well so keep an eye on NYSE:HD , NYSE:WMT , NYSE:BABA for any major moves
fakeout into a shakeoutgood eve'
over the last 4 weeks the es1! has seen a bit of a shakeout which has scared a lot of people out of the market. whenever these things happen, i always wonder what it is that they're afraid of?
---
the es1! completed 5 waves up on a weekly timeframe from the 2023 low which we predicted, to the 2024 top which we did not pinpoint this time around.
i'm predicting we sweep the high 1-2 more times into the fed pivot,
before dropping very aggressively into the presidential election.
---
if all goes well, the timeline will look like this:
> we pop to sweep the high into the "fed pivot"
> we drop -20% into the presidential election.
> the presidential election turns out to be favorable for the market:
> next bull run begins.

i'm not your financial advisor, in fact - i'm not telling you to be a buyer nor a seller.

NASDAQ-100. A POTENTIAL SYMMETRY PERHAPS IS THE NEXT BIG THINGPolicymakers at the U.S. central bank on Wednesday held interest rates steady, although Fed Chair Jerome Powell gave investors some hope by signaling a September rate cut could be on the table.
A Day later stocks heavily sold off Thursday (again), with the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) tumbling nearly 500 points, as investors’ fears over a recession surfaced.
Some fresh data stoked fears over a possible recession and the notion that the Federal Reserve could be too late to start cutting interest rates. Initial jobless claims rose the most since August 2023. And the ISM manufacturing index, a barometer of factory activity in the U.S., came in at 46.8%, worse than expected and a signal of economic contraction.
After these releases, the 10-year Treasury yield dropped below 4% for the first time since February.
These weak data releases come a day after central bank policymakers chose to keep rates at the highest levels in two decades, when Fed Chair Jerome Powell gave investors some hope by signaling a September rate cut could be on the table.
Labor situations is on the radars also, as fresh unemployment data expected on Friday, August 2.
The Federal Reserve risks further weakening the US economy and tanking US stock markets.
As the unemployment rate has risen in recent months, it has fueled speculation that the strong labor market is cracking and pointing to potential trouble ahead, with full-time employment in the US declining by about 1.23 million jobs over the past 12 months, and part-time employment adding about 1.52 million jobs (May'24 data).
While much of the attention of financial analysts in June and July 2024 was focused on the Fed's rhetoric, inflation and manufacturing statistics, the US unemployment rate, which is recovering from its 55-year lows, is much greater thing.
In technical terms, June'24 will be the 4th month in a row, US unemployment rate is above its 26-week (6-month) simple moving average.
Historical backtest analysis of the entire history of data since the end of World War II indicates that the onset of a recession in the United States is just around the corner.
In any case, such labor market symptoms have always, in all cases without exception, signaled either an already occurring or an imminent US recession.
The main graph (Nasdaq-100 Futures cont. contract) indicates on a potential symmetry for further bearish development. with the nearest target roughly S14'000 mark (that is corresponding also to 5-years SMA).
#202433 - priceactiontds - weekly update - sp500 e-mini futuresGood Evening and I hope you are well.
tl;dr
sp500: Last weeks update is still worth reading because it was so on point and most prices given are still valid. Bears need to keep it below 5400/5450 and bulls want above so the bulls would have retraced much more than the 50% they currently have. Also neutral going into next week.
Quote from last week:
bear case: Bears made it clear that this bull trend is over with another huge bull trap. Right now the channel down looks decent enough if we ignore Friday’s tail. Bears could force another drop to 5300 early next week but I think a bounce and more sideways is more reasonable to expect. I am very confident in loading up on shorts on the next pullback and hold until we hit 5000/5100, which will likely happen over the next weeks/months.
comment: Market got to 5100 way faster than I expected but it was climactic selling and a pullback was expected. Not much difference in reasoning compared to dax and the same would apply to the nasdaq. Market is trying to find the big sellers again and we are probing higher. We will most likely hit the daily 20ema soon, which is around 5440 and that is also around the July low and therefore a breakout retest. After the 2 bull bars from Thursday & Friday, I do think the odds of disappointment for the bulls is greater than another bull bar on Monday.
current market cycle: Bear trend started with the drop from 5600 down to 5119. The second leg will bring us to or below 5000, where I expect much more sideways movement again. That big round number will probably be fought over for the next weeks until more bad news come around or earnings Q3 will show clear deterioration.
key levels: 5000-5500
bull case: Bulls already recovered a bit more than 50% of the 480 point sell off and if they get above 5450, the chances of a bear trap and not a bear trend, are bigger than a continuation of the selling. Bulls want exactly that and Monday/Tuesday will be key for the next impulse. A daily close above the 20ema would also turn the momentum in favor of the bulls again. Their target is 5430 and then a daily close above the daily ema.
Invalidation is below 5300.
bear case: Bears need to step in and keep the market below 5430. That’s it. If they get strong selling again on Monday, I do think that below 5300 most bulls will cover and we see a retest of 5200 and lower. Bears still see this as a pullback in a bear trend and 50-60% is a normal retracement.
Invalidation is above 5430.
outlook last week:
short term : Full bear mode. Pullback is expected and I will load up on shorts. This will go much lower in 2024.
→ Last Sunday we traded 5376 and now we are at 5370. Market sold off to 5119 so my read was perfect. Down there I wrote “you can’t get bearish at these lows” and the pullback was expected and written of. Hope you made some.
short term: Full bear mode if we stay below the daily ema. Retest of the lows is higher probability than breaking above the daily ema. I gave clear key levels, mark them and watch what the market does when it gets there.
medium-long term: Same as dax. Want to see a break of this bear flag before I calculate new targets and draw a better channel. We will likely see 5000 before end of October.
current swing trade: None. Will load again on shorts on Monday/Tuesday if bears appear again.
chart update: Added second bear gap, adjusted the possible bear channel and removed all broken bull trend lines.
SPY/QQQ/GOLD Plan Your Trade - New Week Aug 12~16+Thank you for all the boosts and likes. I'm trying my best to deliver informative and intelligent information for traders to learn to make their own decisions.
My goal is to teach you the skills to become better at identifying and selecting better opportunities for profits. Not to be right all the time - that's impossible.
But, to learn to manage risk levels, trade more efficiently, plan your trades, and to execute better trades with detailed information and guidance.
I hope I'm achieving those goals for all of you.
Some of the comments have been wonderfully supportive. Of course I'm not right 100% of the time - no one is. I'm simply trying to provide the best analysis I can to help you plan and prepare for better trades.
This video discusses what I expect from the markets over the next 5~10+ days.
I believe the markets need to retest support before shifting into the new Vortex Rally phase.
We need to watch Gold/Silver, the Transportation Index, Crude Oil, the US-Dollar, and how the SPY/QQQ react over the next 5+ days.
It will be interesting to see how things play out.

Massive Sentiment Swing (Bears vs Bulls Royal Rumble)Many traders were looking for answers this week. What just happened? The quick summary is the JPY carry trade was quickly unwinding and as the Nikkei 225 was dumping with the largest 2 day move (EVER) the JPY volatility increased. On top of that, the FED didn't cut rates in July (as expected) and elected to punt to September (with likely 25 bps cut forecasted). Unfortunately, Thursday Unemployment Claims were higher and Friday's Non-Farm was a massive whiff. This triggered concerns that the FED is now behind the curve and the economy is heading into a recession (Sahm Rule is undefeated as a predictor). Key takeaways from me this week - VIX made the 2nd largest single day spike (Friday to Monday), and 24 hrs later made the 1st largest single day retreat (Monday to Tuesday). As I explain in the video, eerily similar volatility event like we saw in 2017 into January 2018. History rhymes and 2017/2018 were very different economic times compared to today. The week ahead is a bit lighter on US earnings, but key news is PPI and CPI (Tue and Wed prints). I'll be watching the key equilibrium levels to see who gets the upper hand. Do bears attempt to push price lower and re-test the lows? Do bulls continue to rip after the outlier cleanse and we're back to all-time highs before the election or end of year? We'll find out. I'll be watching and trading and doing my best. Thanks for watching!!!

SP500: Bracing for Impact?The crisis is gradually approaching... Global central banks are cutting rates at the fastest pace since the Covid era, according to BofA. The scenario might play out more slowly than shown on the chart, but the essence remains the same.
The upcoming U.S. elections are unlikely to be quiet and peaceful—something big is bound to happen. I'm leaning more towards a downturn.
Is it time to start picking up some Put options? 🤔🤔🤔

Bitcoin vs. SPY: A Comparative AnalysisIn the ever-evolving world of finance, Bitcoin (BTC) continues to make headlines as a disruptive force in the global economy. As of August 10, 2024, a comparative analysis between Bitcoin (BTC/USD) and the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY) reveals fascinating insights into how the world's leading cryptocurrency stacks up against a traditional benchmark of the U.S. stock market.
The Weekly Chart: A Long-Term Perspective
The weekly chart for Bitcoin (BTC/USD) from Coinbase, as seen on TradingView, provides a long-term view of Bitcoin's price movements over the past several years. From its early days of relative obscurity to its meteoric rise in recent years, Bitcoin has become a staple in the portfolios of both retail and institutional investors. The chart highlights several key price points and trends, with the most recent data showing Bitcoin trading at approximately $60,422.92. This marks a notable recovery and a 3.94% increase over the past week.
This growth is particularly interesting when viewed in the context of Bitcoin's historical volatility. The chart clearly illustrates Bitcoin's cyclical nature, with periods of rapid growth followed by sharp corrections. Yet, despite the volatility, Bitcoin has shown resilience, consistently bouncing back from lows to reach new highs.
Bitcoin vs. SPY
To further understand Bitcoin's performance, it's crucial to compare it against a traditional benchmark like the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY), which tracks the S&P 500 Index—a key barometer of the U.S. stock market.
The "Asset vs Benchmark" table on the chart provides a detailed comparison of Bitcoin and SPY across multiple timeframes, including 1 day (1D), 1 week (1W), 1 month (1M), 3 months (3M), 6 months (6M), and 1 year (1Y). Here's a breakdown of the performance:
1 Day (1D): SPY shows a modest gain of +0.44%, while Bitcoin has experienced a slight decline of -0.72%. This short-term fluctuation is a reminder of Bitcoin's higher volatility compared to traditional assets.
1 Week (1W): Bitcoin shines here with a 3.94% gain, compared to SPY's marginal increase of 0.02%. This suggests that Bitcoin has been more responsive to recent market dynamics, potentially driven by macroeconomic factors or developments within the cryptocurrency space.
1 Month (1M): Over the past month, Bitcoin has underperformed with a -6.48% decline, while SPY saw a -3.24% drop. While both assets have struggled, Bitcoin's higher volatility is once again evident.
3 Months (3M): The 3-month data shows a similar pattern, with Bitcoin down -3.58%, compared to SPY's -3.24%. This alignment suggests that broader market trends have impacted both assets, though Bitcoin remains more sensitive to these movements.
6 Months (6M): Over the last six months, Bitcoin and SPY are almost neck and neck, both down -3.58%. This parity highlights the global economic challenges that have weighed on both traditional and digital assets.
1 Year (1Y): The 1-year performance paints a different picture. Bitcoin has surged ahead with a remarkable 42.88% gain, vastly outperforming SPY's 12.14% increase. This underscores Bitcoin's potential as a long-term growth asset, particularly in a year marked by inflation concerns and market volatility.
The Broader Implications
This analysis underscores several key points for investors:
Volatility as a Double-Edged Sword: Bitcoin's higher volatility means that while it can deliver substantial short-term gains, it also carries greater risk. Investors need to be prepared for significant price swings and should consider their risk tolerance when allocating to Bitcoin.
Diversification Potential: Bitcoin's ability to outperform traditional assets like SPY over the long term highlights its potential as a diversification tool. By adding Bitcoin to a portfolio, investors can potentially enhance returns while also increasing exposure to the rapidly growing digital economy.
Macroeconomic Sensitivity: Bitcoin's performance is increasingly influenced by global macroeconomic factors, much like traditional assets. This alignment suggests that Bitcoin is becoming more integrated into the broader financial ecosystem, making it a more relevant consideration for mainstream investors.
Conclusion
As Bitcoin continues to evolve and mature as an asset class, its role in the financial markets is becoming increasingly significant. The recent data showing Bitcoin's outperformance over SPY on a 1-year basis is a testament to its growing relevance and appeal. However, investors must also be mindful of the risks associated with Bitcoin's volatility and consider a balanced approach when incorporating it into their investment strategy.
In an era where digital assets are gaining traction, Bitcoin remains at the forefront, challenging traditional notions of value and investment. As the financial landscape continues to shift, keeping an eye on the dynamic between Bitcoin and traditional benchmarks like SPY will be essential for understanding the future of finance.

SPX are we bullish or bearish? The S&P 500 closed the weekly firmly.
Finally putting in a high volume reversal, has the SPX bottomed here?
One thing is for sure we are still putting in higher highs & higher lows on the weekly time frame.
Until we see the markets give us that lower weekly high its still a tough market to short.
We think about the decline in semis and megacaps after earnings...all eyes will be on NvDA near end of month.
The markets have a strong chance at staying buoyamt into NVDA earnings.
SPY/QQQ Plan Your Trade 8-9 Noon Update : Possible SqueezeThis quick update covers SPY, Gold, Bitcoin, IWM, and NVDA.
Boy, what a change in price range compared to the last few weeks. Looks like ht markets have settled into a deep sleep today.
I still believe the Breakaway pattern could really make a move in the last 30 to 40 minutes of trading. A solid squeeze potential is available to price if the short trading pressure starts to unwind before the weekend.
Watch how this plays out at the end of the day, and remember that next week should see solid rallying trends.
Have a great weekend.

SPY/QQQ Plan Your Trade 9-9 Update : SPY Must Rally Above 532This is a quick update related to the Inside Breakaway Pattern today.
The SPY must attempt to break above 532 in order to attempt a rally up to 539-542.
I really believe the SPY is primed to move into a Ripper Rally phase between now and the end of next week.
I will urge the Make-Or-Break (525-526) is still in play.
If the SPY falls below 525 - the trend flips to BEARISH
If the SPY stays above 525 - the trend is BULLISH.
So, we need to see how today plays out. But, I believe a Ripper Rally is primed and ready to go where the SPY could rally up into the 540+ level very easily.
It may play out as a rally to 545++ by mid-next week - but we may see it start today.
