SUI SHORTRecently, SUI has failed to break structure and to make a higher yet hence made a lower high and displaced its bullish fvg with a bearish one. Making a footprint which I will utilize. On the graph you can see my entry as well as my target. A untapped 4h OB
Goodluck !
I always appreciate a follow, thanks :)!
SPY at 3 important event! POC, 200 ema and 30 days reversalHi All SPY is at an interesting intersection:
1) a month from where it crashed and reversed entirely
2) At point of control (POC) from the top in Feb
3) at 200 ema
In Aug 22 SPY reversed from POC, at other times it found support or broke out with a gap
My opinion is, it will continue going up till 13th May (date when CPI is published). Nobody knows for sure how much tariff will impact CPI. It cannot as bad as we had during covid.
NVDA LTFLocal price action - the gap from 4/29 was filled in, but it left another gap on 4/30. During aftermarket hours, the price jumped up and approached the weekly level above but got rejected and finished the day red. We got a naked untapped pivot point below along with the range POC point of control.. not a bad week of price action.
From a range perspective price deviated to both sides and finisheded the day seemingly falling back into range. Let's see how the week ends.
Nvda low time frameLocal price action - the gap from 4/29 was filled in, but another was left on 4/30. During aftermarket hours the price jumped up to approach the weekly level above and dropped back down. We got a naked untapped pivot point below along with the range POC point of control, not a bad week of price action.
First lookFirst look at CRWV, some basic monthly weekly daily levels, range POC point of control, and a speed resistance fan, which price shot up into at the moment. If I was looking to get involved I'd wait for a slight retrace into the SP below left behind because of the gap that was left from the day before
Gold — Buyer Power or Pause?The monthly candle closed as a strong buyer candle with significant volume.
This shows strong interest from both buyers and sellers at current levels.
Yesterday, on the daily timeframe, a seller-side IKC appeared (IKC or decision candle — the highest-volume candle within initiatives inside a sideways range).
That puts the current long targets into question — we now need to see a clear show of buyer strength.
📉 The price is currently near the 50% level of the weekly initiative — 3228.382, which could attract buyers.
Below that, daily support zones are marked on the chart at 3193 and 3167, where the buyer may regain initiative.
🔎 To consider long entries, we need to see:
• Buyer strength, and
• Price returning above 3260.
This analysis is based on the Initiative Analysis concept (IA).
Wishing you profitable trades!

MSFT Q1 EARNINGSMicrosoft Earnings Presentation. We have a strong resistance area that we need to break. If we break through that area, we would move toward the second resistance zone, with strong support at 355.
If MSFT report strong earnings, the stock could move toward the $420 area, where it reached during the last earnings release.
