SPY/QQQ Plan Your Trade For 12-27-24: Momentum Rally PatternThe last Friday of the year (2024) should show up as a moderate Momentum Rally in the SPY/QQQ - possibly seeing the SPY target 603 or higher by the end of the day. Gold and Silver are consolidating into a FLAGGING formation. Bitcoin is trapped in a consolidation range (right shoulder) pattern that should break downward over the next 5+ days. This is the time to position your trades for the beginning of 2025 and prepare for moderate volatility as the markets struggle for direction. The Momentum Rally pattern, today, should present a very clean opportunity for skilled day traders. I believe a deeper low is likely to setup between January 15 and January 25, 2025. So, be prepared for another roll to the downside after we get past the New Year.

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL MY SPYLOVERS !!!Two weeks ago, I projected some very common behaviors that candles exhibit after a long rally. If you compare the two types of candles I marked on the left-hand side, notice how candle models "A" and "B" have very different body structures. Candles "A" have a more volumetric medium-sized body, which indicates strength. However, we are not exempt from their natural pullback, which, to complete one trend cycle, broke the structure itself upward. Candles "B" are smaller than Candles "A," allowing us to distinguish the significant weakness in the uptrend. The price starts to lose momentum, and consequently, we can expect it to take a pause before falling. After projecting the two scenarios where SPY was positioned two weeks ago, we were able to predict both future movements correctly: When the price reached historical highs, it paused or consolidated, showing descending candles (see the magenta arrow). Later, a volumetric candle confirmed the drop. Within the two scenarios, I marked two possible levels where the price would fall. The rebound occurred correctly at the second level, a historical resting zone where the price has been since October. This analysis is entirely based on price action and historical zones. It's essential to stay alert to institutional and liquidity zones to ensure the most accurate analysis possible. Now we are in the final week of the year, and historically, markets tend to react bullishly. But the question is: Will it be different this time? In my opinion: I believe the price can reach new historical highs, as it is demonstrating with strong bullish pressure candles. At this moment, I think we are at a good support level located at the previous resistance of our entire bullish channel. I believe the price will re-enter the channel and resume the sequence it has been following within the overall bullish structure. This concludes my analysis of SPY for now. Let's see what the next few days bring as we continue monitoring the market. If you'd like to see this analysis in English, follow me on TradingView under the username: rockermike111. Wishing you an excellent 2025 filled with great news and continued growth in your market studies! May your learning progress year after year! Sending you a big hug and wishing you a Happy 2025! TRADE SAFE!

SPY/QQQ Plan Your Trade for 12-26-24 : Inside Breakaway PatternThis, being the day After Christmas, could be a very volatile trading day. I suggest traders sit back and let the morning volatility settle before attempting to make any big trades. I believe the markets will seek direction after Christmas and look to attempt to move into a Reversion phase (likely trending upward into the end of 2024). Overall, I believe the Anomaly event has completed - yet there is still risk for the markets to move lower before the end of Feb 2025. Follow my research and pay attention to how large the recent Daily price bars are compared to previous ranges. The current market volatility is MASSIVE. There is no reason skilled traders are not able to profit from some of these big price swings. Gold and Silver enter a CRUSH pattern. This could be a huge price move for Gold & Silver today. Bitcoin is sliding into the Consolidation Phase of an EPP pattern. This could result in another breakdown towards $72k if the EPP pattern plays out. Buckle up.

S&P500 ES ready to enter the buy zone based on my new indicatorTL:DR I created a new price + volume based indicator that sold BEFORE the most recent crash, and bought BEFORE the most recent rise. If this indicator is any indication of the near future, then it's showing a near future rise in S&P500 since there is an active BUY signal. Below is a more detailed description of the indicator I created which is typically based on simple price and volume action. I designed a new indicator that I dub the "Money Flow by NHBprod" indicator. It helps to EASILY identify potential trade opportunities without over complicating the process. In short, MFI typically uses volume and pricing data in its calculations which are 2 important keys to consider when trading. However, the actual indicator typically lags behind actual trade opportunities. I heavily modified the standard MFI so that this new indicator can be used to easily see where to buy and where to sell. It also has built in alerts which can be used to automate trading. How It Works The indicator calculates the Money Flow Index (MFI), but is heavily modified both in terms of calculations, performance, and output. The indicator computes the MFI using the closing price and a user-defined length. A linear regression moving average is applied to the MFI, smoothing out fluctuations to provide clear signals. Then we have Buy & Sell Zones which are Customizable thresholds that are used to determine when to buy and when to sell. When the moving average crosses into the buy zone, green highlights appear on the chart; similarly, red highlights appear when it enters the sell zone. Alerts: Integrated alert conditions notify traders when the moving average enters either zone, ensuring they never miss a trade opportunity. Simplifies Analysis: By focusing on the MFI's moving average and clearly marking significant zones, the indicator eliminates noise and simplifies market analysis. Enhanced Visualization: The green and red highlighted zones on the pricing chart offer an intuitive, at-a-glance understanding of market conditions.

$SPY Trend Analysis DarkPoolsChart Overview: Instrument: SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY) Timeframe: 4-hour chart Indicators on Chart: Moving Averages: Two moving averages, possibly the 8 EMA and 21 EMA, are visible and used for trend analysis. Dark Pool Levels: Represented by white dashed lines. Fibonacci Extensions: Horizontal levels plotted as profit targets. Trendlines: Yellow Lines: Represent a rising channel encompassing long-term price movement. Red and Green Lines: Form a triangle pattern suggesting potential price breakout. Volume Indicators: (Not directly visible, but implied in analysis as crucial.) Key Observations: Dark Pool Levels: A level around 605 (BA SW 605). Another level at 586.16 (BB SW 585). These levels often indicate significant institutional trading activity and are likely areas of support/resistance. Triangle Breakout: Price has broken out of a triangle pattern (green and red lines), indicating bullish momentum. The breakout occurred after a strong push above the 597.12 - 596.11 zone, confirmed by the candle close. Trend: The price is trading above both EMAs, which signals bullish momentum. The broader channel suggests an upward trend with potential consolidation at the top. Targets: Fibonacci-based profit targets are clearly defined at: 607.50 610.00 612.50 615.00 The first target (607.50) aligns with a critical resistance zone, suggesting potential short-term profit-taking. Support Zones: The previous triangle breakout zone (around 596.11) serves as a strong support. The lower dark pool level (586.16) provides additional safety if the price retraces significantly. Trade Idea: Entry: If not already entered, consider a pullback entry near the 597-596 range, which aligns with the EMAs and breakout level. Profit Targets: 607.50: Partial profit-taking area; first resistance. 610.00: Secondary target if bullish momentum sustains. 612.50: High-probability target if momentum accelerates. 615.00: Final target aligning with the Fibonacci extension. Stop Loss: Close below 596: Invalidates the bullish triangle breakout. Final Stop: Close below 586.16 (dark pool support), marking a shift to bearish momentum. Risk Management: Position size based on risk tolerance. Risk-to-reward ratio should ideally exceed 1:3, considering a stop at 596 and initial target at 607.50. Additional Notes: Volume Confirmation: Ensure the breakout is supported by a volume surge to validate institutional involvement. Dark Pool Activity: Watch for price action near 605 (BA SW) as it could act as temporary resistance.

2024 Santa Rally and More - Up/Down/SidewaysIt's that time of year again. The final trading weeks of 2024 and the technical "Santa Rally" (trading through Christmas and New Year's) is upon us. Unfortunately the FED put a bit of a cap on the extremely optimistic and borderline euphoria that was bubbling over going into the FOMC Rate Decision. 100 bps of cuts, yet the US10Y (10 year yield) has virtually moved in the exact opposite direction. Inflation is now a concern and this is a big reason for the FED's "hawkish cut" in December. The market will have to figure out how 1-2 cuts in 2025 looks compared to 4-6 cuts that was anticipated. I don't think the 1 day FED move is enough of a correction to justify loading up on longs, so I'm looking for 200 EMA tests and better prices all around. If I don't get them, I suppose I'll just wait longer :) Happy Holidays to everyone Thanks for watching!!!

$SPY Trade Analysis DarkPoolsThis chart appears to be analyzing the SPY ETF (S&P 500 ETF Trust) on a 30-minute timeframe, with various levels marked for support, resistance, trendlines, and potential targets. Here’s a breakdown of the analysis based on what is visible in the chart: Trend Analysis: Downtrend Observed: The red trendline indicates a clear lower highs (LH) pattern, suggesting a bearish structure. The green trendline highlights a previous descending support line, which was broken, followed by a recovery. Current Context: SPY is below the red trendline, which is acting as resistance. The price is hovering near the EMA cluster (moving averages such as 8 EMA and 21 EMA), indicating indecision or consolidation. Key Levels: Resistance Zones: 595.23 to 599.31: This range aligns with previous pivot points and overlaps with a lower high (LH), making it a significant resistance area. 604.37 (DP): A dark pool level from 12/18 indicates where institutional activity occurred. Breaking this level could signal bullish momentum. Support Zones: 590.96 to 586.50: Price currently sits above this cluster, suggesting short-term support. 578.93 (90 SMA): The 90 SMA acts as a longer-term support level. Potential Trade Ideas: Bullish Scenario: Entry: Above 595.23, ideally with a strong close above the red trendline. Targets: T1: 597.63 T2: 599.31 T3: 604.37 Stop Loss: Below 593.87, the most recent support level. Bearish Scenario: Entry: Below 586.50, confirming a breakdown below immediate support. Targets: T1: 585.00 T2: 580.00 T3: 578.93 Stop Loss: Above 588.00, invalidating the breakdown. Indicators: EMA Strategy: Watch for a cross of the shorter EMA (e.g., 8 EMA) below the longer EMA (e.g., 21 EMA) for bearish confirmation, or vice versa for bullish momentum. Volume Confirmation: Increased volume at breakout levels strengthens the validity of the move. Overall Outlook: The current price action is consolidating between 595.23 (resistance) and 586.50 (support). This range-bound behavior may continue until a clear breakout or breakdown occurs. A move above the red trend-line could suggest a bullish reversal, while a break below the lower support zone would confirm bearish continuation. Why the 6:15 Candle is Key: Liquidity Shift: Around 6:15 a.m. EST, pre-market trading often experiences a shift in liquidity as larger institutional traders and automated systems begin positioning themselves ahead of the regular market open. This creates a noticeable increase in volume or volatility. Reaction to Overnight News: By this time, many traders have processed overnight news, including international market developments, economic data, or corporate announcements. The 6:15 candle often represents the market’s collective sentiment to these inputs. Early Dark Pool & Futures Activity: Institutional players and hedge funds might act on dark pool or futures activity signals around this time. For instance, the SPY chart you provided shows interest in identifying areas that coincide with pre-market setups for further price movement. Key Levels for the Day: The high and low of the 6:15 candle in pre-market trading are frequently used by day traders as pivot points. These levels often act as intraday support or resistance, with price reacting around these zones during the regular trading session. Interpreting the 6:15 Candle in Your Chart: Looking at your chart: The 6:15 candle seems to be sitting just below key resistance at 591.14. This candle’s high and low can serve as short-term levels: High Break: A break above the 6:15 high signals bullish momentum. Low Break: A move below the 6:15 low indicates bearish pressure. For SPY, this candle is important because it often sets the tone for the first trading hour of the day. How to Use the 6:15 Candle: Range Breakout Strategy: Mark the high and low of the 6:15 candle. Use these as breakout or breakdown levels for the regular session. Pre-Market High/Low Alignment: If the 6:15 candle aligns with pre-market highs or lows, it reinforces the importance of those levels. Volume Confirmation: Check if the 6:15 candle has significant volume compared to previous candles. A spike in volume confirms institutional interest. EMA Relationship: Notice if the 6:15 candle is above or below key moving averages like the 8 EMA or 15 EMA. This gives insight into short-term sentiment. In Summary: The 6:15 pre-market candle acts as a pivotal reference point: High and low levels often dictate intraday trading strategies. It reflects liquidity shifts, news reactions, and institutional activity. Use it alongside volume, EMAs, and resistance/support zones for more accurate predictions.

12/22/24 Weekly Watchlist + NotesAMEX:SPY - Huge sell off across the board from FOMC news on Wednesday. SPY sold off down through previous Broadening Formation range reclaiming previous downside pivot just below 684. So with that in mind, we expand out of the BF below that pivotal low, or come back through range above it. With SPY currently setup to potentially go 3-2 daily, we look to see whether fridays high or low gets taken out. Being above the pivot at 684, we are looking to come back through that BF range and make new ATHs as of now. Of course this can all change depending on whether our W is green or red, but for now we are closer to making a daily HH than a LL. With Christmas being this week, the markets close 2 hours early on Tuesday, and re open on Thursday. Being a short week like this, we need to be extra cautious as there will be lower than normal volume, and simply less time for the weekly candle to form, so expectations on a large move this week as most seem to be predicting, may not happen for the prior reasons. Personally will not be trading Tuesday and possibly not at all this week if I don't see absolute A+ setups. Watchlist: Bullish: NASDAQ:NVDA - Pot. 1-3-2U Daily to trigger failed 2D hammer week. Swept BF lows this past week. Looking to come back through range. This is a big name for the markets, so I expect that if the markets are recovering, this will lead the way or follow with it NASDAQ:MU - 2-2U reversal potential daily to target gap fill from ER. We took out weekly BF mag on friday, hitting exhaustion levels after finally escaping the motherbar it was stuck in for the last 11 weeks. One side gets toasted, magnitude is hit for W and M. All the ingredients for a big recovery. Only issue is being stuck in last weeks range NASDAQ:PLTR - potential 3-2D for a simultaneous weekly 2-1-2U trigger. Nuclear green on all TFs. Slight room to go to target ATH again, but mainly looking for the weekly inside up measured move, meaning if we go 2-1-2U, we can expect the same move up as we had in the week prior to last weeks inside bar week. Cruise Lines: NYSE:CCL + NYSE:NCLH Weekly hammers. NYSE:RCL Not a clean weekly AS, but similar daily to other names in the industry. Bearish: NASDAQ:TSLA - 3-1 4Hr to trigger MoMo shooter Daily to trigger Shooter Weekly 2-2. Daily PMG to target from ATH Exhaustion. (Big green day for most names Friday, why was TSLA so bearish with such relative strength lately?) NASDAQ:AVGO - Shooter 2U Day to trigger 2-2 shooter week. Huge gap up from earnings. Looking to attack the gap. NYSE:KO - MoMo Shooter 2D day to trigger 2-1-2D week. Having issues making range lately, but daily BF is targeting lower still, and weekly 2-2d has yet to be negated. Inside week will confirm more downside to target our BF magnitudes on the D and W, or it will be negated by a 2U week. Simple plan here. Short under prev week low, exit if back above. NYSE:UBER - MoMo shooter 2d Weekly to reconfirm M 2D and Q 2U going 3. Check Monthly for the BF. Wanna see continuation lower to Q mag at 54.84. No daily AS but 3-1 4HR. May be a slower mover on the list. Basing all my decisions on the weekly as the momo shooter should simply just trigger and work
