SPY Approaches Gamma Wall-TA for July 10SPY Approaches Gamma Wall: Key Zones to Watch for Tomorrow’s Trade 🔥
GEX Options Sentiment Analysis:
SPY is currently hovering just below the major GEX resistance zone around 624–626, where the highest positive GEX and gamma wall overlap with strong call walls (52.17% and 41.33%). This region has historically capped upside momentum, so traders should prepare for potential rejection or breakout scenarios.
Downside has modest protection around 620 (HVL level), with negative GEX zones building near 619–617, marking a weak PUT wall. The lack of deep PUT dominance signals limited downside hedging pressure.
* IVR: 8.9 (low), IVx avg: 13.8
* Options Flow Sentiment: 24.1% PUTs
* GEX Bias: Mildly bullish unless 623 fails
Options Strategy Suggestions:
* If price breaks and holds above 626.5, consider buying CALL spreads (e.g., 626c/630c) targeting a gamma squeeze into 628+.
* If 623 breaks, look for short-dated PUT spreads (e.g., 623p/620p) targeting a fade back into 620 or even 617.
1-Hour Chart Price Action Analysis:
SPY has reclaimed a bullish posture after the CHoCH (Change of Character) on July 8 and is pushing into a supply zone just beneath the prior swing high. The price structure now forms a clean ascending channel, supported by higher lows and rising demand.
* Support Zones: 622.00, 620.34
* Resistance Levels: 624.72, 626.27
* BOS (Break of Structure): Confirmed earlier, adding bullish confluence
Watch for a breakout above the current supply zone to continue momentum toward 628+. However, failure to break and a rejection near 625 could lead to a retest of 620–622 as the next demand zone.
Trading Outlook for Thursday:
* Bullish Case: Break and close above 626 opens the door to a squeeze into 628+. Use pullbacks to 623–624.2 as entry zones.
* Bearish Case: Rejection at current levels with a breakdown below 622.5 could pull SPY into the 620.3 and possibly 617.9 levels.
* Scalp Setup: Long above 625 with tight stop below 623. Short below 622.5 targeting 620, risk above 624.

SPY Gamma Squeeze Fading – Key Put Wall Battles Ahead 🧨 GEX Options Sentiment (TanukiTrade GEX Chart)
* Current Price: 619.91
* Major Support Wall:
* GEX Cluster Support: 618 → 617 (Highest Negative Net GEX + 3rd PUT Wall)
* Additional GEX Floor: 616.37 (PUT support overlap with SMC zone)
* Resistance Levels:
* 625.34 → First CALL Wall
* 627 → 2nd CALL Wall
* 630 → Top of CALL Gamma Resistance
* Put Wall Dominance:
* GEX7–GEX10 blocks show heavy negative pressure (-47% to -66%) centered between 617–620
* Options Flow Insight:
* PUTS OI: 41.9% – Signaling downside hedges are still dominant
* IVR: 15.3 (low), IVX avg: 18.2 – Implied volatility suggests premium selling could get tricky unless directional trend returns
🔸 Interpretation:
This is a “put-heavy zone” — large GEX support clusters below price (617–618) are temporarily halting further drop, but unless SPY can reclaim 625.34, there's still gamma-driven downside risk.
🟢 1-Hour SMC Price Action
* Recent Structure:
* BOS confirmed → 626.27
* CHoCH to downside below 620 → confirmed rejection
* Current Setup:
* Price is hovering at minor demand between 617–620
* If 616.37 breaks, it opens room toward SMC demand zone at 604–606
* Strong resistance overhead at 625–627 (OB + GEX call wall + CHoCH retest)
🔸 Scenario 1 – Bullish Reclaim:
* Entry: Above 621
* Target: 625.34 → 627
* Stop: Below 616.00
* Setup: Break/retest of CHoCH + reclaim trendline
🔸 Scenario 2 – Bearish Breakdown:
* Entry: Below 616.37
* Target: 606 → 600
* Stop: Above 620
* Setup: Breakdown from demand + confirmed CHoCH retest
📌 Thoughts & Recommendations:
* Scalpers: Watch 620.50–621.00 as intraday pivot.
* If reclaimed, we may see short squeeze into 625–627
* Below 616.37, put flows will likely accelerate
* Swing Traders: Bearish bias unless 625.34 flips → consider spreads or directional puts
* Neutral Edge: This is a gamma battle zone — don’t overcommit, let price pick a side

SPY July 8th 2025SPY July 8th 2025
Day 2 of journaling my trades. Ended Monday green but not without mistakes. I am heading into Tuesday with more of a neutral outlook. Previous resistance will be tested as support and could find buyers or fail to do so. As I did yesterday, I will give a breakdown of what I’m seeing on all of my charts for both strategies.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Bullish Analysis
Renko: The price pulled back on Monday, as expected, and may continue lower to retest the top of the channel (around $615). Fisher Transform is still in positive territory and strong support at that level could lead to the price reaching higher highs.
500R ($5) chart: Similar structure to the Renko chart. I’m using a higher range here to compensate for volatility. Just like with the Renko chart, a bounce on the top of the channel would be a healthy pullback before higher highs. There is a high volume node on the volume profile, so interest from buyers here could be strong enough to prevent the price from falling back into the channel.
4h chart: The last three candles have the appearance of a healthy pullback. There was declining volume and
the most recent candle is somewhat of a bullish hammer. I also have an anchored VWAP going back to June 30 that the price seems to be respecting. The price bounced off of it in the first 4h candle on Monday and managed to close above it after a dip during the formation of the second candle.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Bearish Analysis
Renko: Same chart with a lower box size ($1 instead of $2). As you can see, there is bearish divergence on Fisher Transform. The price also found likely temporary support before reaching the top of the channel, suggesting that it could make at least one more wave down if a larger corrective trend unfolds. The 1.382 ($614) and 1.618 ($612) Fibonacci extensions will be important reference points to watch. I would feel less confident about the strength of the bullish trend if the price goes beyond the 1.618 extension.
200R ($2) Range: The Range chart in this layout is the only one that I am including extended hours data on, so the channels have slightly different levels. On this chart I am using two trend lines on the upper level to illustrate the possible areas of support/previous resistance. If the price breaks back into the channel and below the 34VWMA, it could signal a trend failure and the price could return to $600 or lower. Volume bars on range charts also offer a different perspective than on time-based candlesticks. Here, since each bar represents a $2 move up or down, the volume inside of each bar can show the level of effort it took to move the price either direction, whereas the time-based charts are simply showing the level of interest during a particular time period. For this reason, consistently high volume during this last move up could be a sign that there is a larger presence of sellers. Lastly, there is Fisher Transform divergence here as well.
1h chart: CME_MINI:ES1! is green overnight, signaling continuation of the bounce we saw at the end of the day on Monday. With a tighter channel, the top was rejected in a classic bearish reversal candle pattern above the channel and made a clean break down below the channel. The price found support just above the anchored VWAP from the start of the channel, so there could still be institutional interest around $617 and below. If this correction were to unfold into three distinct waves, a 0.618 pullback (to the 0.382 level of the fib extension; $623) would retest the previous demand of the channel. A rejection here could have the price looking for support in a lower volume zone. A (c) wave could take the price down to $615-$611.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Options Analysis
As I have explained, I think it is possible that we will see the price hit $623 during the Tuesday session, so it could be an important level for ATM options. TVC:VIX held its level on Monday after the gap up but failed to make progress - finding resistance at the 200MA on the 1h chart. The rounding bottom and bullish candles on the 30m AMEX:SPY chart looks better than other timeframes. From a Wyckoff Method perspective, however, it looks like puts are in a distribution pattern and calls are in accumulation. Volume is low for both of these contracts, but especially lower on the Put option, indicating lack of interest.
If the put contract makes a lower low on Tuesday (below $3.55 or above $620.75 for SPY), this particular contract could break into a downtrend. Calls seem to be the safer bet since the price has already made a higher high and has wider support. An ideal entry would be a false breakout at $0.95 ($621.00 for SPY) or a retest of the top of the channel after a true upside breakout at $1.50 ($622.50 for SPY) The upside breakout possibility would have stronger confirmation, so it would be worth the higher premium price. This movement would need to be accompanied by high volume, of course.
For puts, I would like to see higher volume at the bottom of the range, since it seems like the underlying price will open higher. I would probably switch to a contract with a lower strike since $623 would be ITM but for the sake of this idea, I would target entry of $623p around $3.65 ($620.75 for SPY).
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Targets
Calls: Enter $622.50, Target $628-$630, Stop Loss $621
Puts: Enter: $620.75, Target $615, Stop Loss $621.50
To summarize, I like the risk/reward and volume better for calls, and it fits my original thesis, however if volume increases on puts at these elevated levels, it will be important to get in at a price that minimizes risk exposure to take advantage of a deeper correction.

SPY at a Key Inflection Point GEX and Price Action Setting Up the Next Move 🎯
🧠 GEX-Based Options Analysis (For Option Traders)
SPY's current positioning in the options market reveals a heavy concentration of gamma and hedging pressure near 620. This level is acting as the Gamma Wall (Highest positive NETGEX / Call Resistance), which typically limits upside unless dealers are forced to unwind hedges.
* Call Walls sit densely at 622 and 624, with diminishing strength up to 626.25.
* Put Walls are stacked below at 618, 616, and most aggressively near 615.
* Notably, today's HVL expires at 620, adding pressure to keep price pinned around that level into the close.
* GEX readings are turning neutral to slightly bearish, with PUT flow dominating at 38.6% vs CALLS at 12.6%.
* IVR is still low at 11.3, which means option premiums are cheap — favoring debit strategies or directional plays if a breakout occurs.
Option Trade Ideas:
🟩 Bullish Setup (Break above 621.5)
Buy 622C or 624C (weekly or next Friday expiration).
Target: 626–628 (into light gamma zone), Stop below 620.
🟥 Bearish Setup (Break below 617.5)
Buy 618P or 615P, targeting 613–610.
Stop above 620. Time the move for IV expansion and gamma acceleration.
📈 Technical Analysis – 1-Hour Chart (For Intraday & Swing Traders)
The chart shows SPY compressing into a wedge pattern just above ascending trendline support from July 2nd. The price action is stuck between declining supply from the 626–628 rejection zone and strong demand at 617.88–615.
* Structure: Price has formed a CHoCH (Change of Character) at the top, followed by BOS confirming bearish pressure. However, price has been resilient above 617, building potential for a spring trap.
* Support: 617.88 → key zone. If lost, next support is near 613–610.
* Resistance: 622–624 remains the magnet for a breakout attempt if bulls take over.
* Volume: Declining, indicating a volatility expansion is likely soon.
Scenarios to Watch:
🔼 Bullish Breakout:
If price reclaims 621.50 and breaks above the recent wedge resistance, look for a squeeze toward 624 then 626. Use tight stops and look for volume confirmation.
🔽 Bearish Breakdown:
A clean break below 617.88 could unleash sellers toward 613. This aligns with GEX pressure and heavy PUT walls.
🧭 Final Thoughts
SPY is sitting on top of a coiled spring — both gamma and price structure are ready for release. This is not the time to guess; let price break from the wedge and follow the momentum. With IV still low and GEX polarity neutralizing, this is a perfect setup for directional options plays only after confirmation.

Opportunity Beneath the Fear: SPY's Reversal SetupIn the Shadow of Headlines: SPY’s Drop Could Be 2025’s Big Opportunity
As markets react sharply to renewed tariff fears and Trump-related headlines, SPY continues its descent. Panic is setting in—but behind the noise, a strategic opportunity may be quietly forming.
While many rush to exit, others are beginning to position for the bounce. A well-structured entry strategy could be key to turning uncertainty into gains.
Entry Zone (Staggered):
🔹 543: First watch level—look for signs of slowing momentum.
🔹 515: Deeper entry point as the selloff extends.
🔹 <500 (TBD): Stay flexible—if panic accelerates, this could mark a generational setup.
Profit Targets:
✅ 570: Initial rebound target.
✅ 590: Mid-range level if recovery builds.
✅ 610+: Full recovery potential—rewarding those with patience and vision.
Remember: Headlines fade, but price action and preparation stay. This selloff may continue—but it might also be laying the foundation for 2025’s most powerful move. The key? Enter with discipline, protect your capital, and let the market come to you.

SPY July 7th 2025SPY July 7th 2025
Day 1 of journaling my day trades on SPY. I am going to start journaling my ideas every night if possible in order to fine tune my setup and to analyze my wins and losses. I will be using Renko (Traditional, 2 box size, 1m) as my main chart, Range Bars (50R, 100R, 200R, or 500R), and candle sticks (various timeframes) to identify supply/demand, price ranges, and trends - placing a high emphasis on volume as it applies to the Wyckoff Method. I will also occasionally refer to real time options charts and VIX, however I will primarily use those for my entries during the day.
Each day I will provide setups for a bullish and bearish bias, which should help minimize instances where the price moves against me - with slow reactions leading to holding losing trades and hesitating to enter a trade on the side of the new trend. I’ll try to come up with a consistent format as time goes on. For today, I will go down the list of my indicators and provide notes that fit the bias of each trading strategy.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Bullish Analysis
Renko: Strong breakout from ascending channel on June 30. Fisher Transform is signaling continuation. A retest of the top of the channel would take the price back to ~$618.
100R ($1) Chart: Price is in an uptrend being supported by high volume. 34VWMA (purple) is above 200MA (green). The bounce on July 2nd (around $616) was supported by a high volume node, indicating genuine interest pushing the price higher.
30m Chart: Price closed on July 3rd at the top of an ascending channel inside of a larger ascending channel. Since the larger ascending channel is one of strength, it can be assumed that the smaller one is a sign of strength as well. A break too far below the lower end of this smaller channel would be a sign of weakness, which does not seem to fit the current market structure after last week’s breakouts, but it is still possible that the trend fails. Fisher transform is forming a “hook” pattern that can signal continuation.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Bearish Analysis
On a smaller scale, the price appears due for a pullback, which can fit both the bullish and bearish trading ideas depending on where the market opens.
Renko: The price closed at the top of an ascending channel on July 2nd and will find more buyers upon a test of the lower band and the anchored VWAP.
50R (50¢) Chart: If the price pulls back to the bottom of the channel (around $620) this would coincide with a retracement of 0.618 - which is a key fib level. A break below the 1.00 extension ($616) could signal a break of the uptrend - a $9+ drop if an entry can be found near the top of the channel, not too bad.
5m Chart: The price left a gap down to $620 on July 3rd. Filling this gap could provide important liquidity to propel the price higher. Additionally, The high volume at the start and end of Thursday’s flat trading day (with low volume in between) could be a sign of accumulation or lack of sellers.
1DTE ATM Put, 2m: If a more prolonged (and profitable) downward move is expected from smart money, we should see volume increase for ATM puts during the session. Depending on where things open, we could see a potential spring/false bearish breakout (below $2.20), or a true bullish breakout (above $2.80). Using an options calculator, $623.75 on AMEX:SPY would set up the Spring and a drop below $622.50 could confirm the put breakout.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Targets
Calls: Enter $618-$620, Target $625-$628, Stop Loss $617.75
Puts: Enter $623-$625, Target $620, Stop Loss $626.25
To conclude, overnight action on CME_MINI:ES1! and the gap up on TVC:VIX shows that the price is already retracing. The top of the wedge for VIX would be just above $20 - a key level to watch for a reversal. Unless the upper part of the channel on SPY is tested and rejected again after the open, I will sit out and wait to hit the bullish targets. We are still in a strong uptrend after last week’s breakouts, so going short is the riskier bet anyway, as buyers could step in at any time.
Looking at ATM calls and puts side by side (bottom two charts), it is clear that calls were not heading into today with a good setup. It would be worth taking a chance on puts if a Spring forms (below $2.20), which, again, would correlate with AMEX:SPY hitting $623.75 during the session - and not much higher.
My main idea for the start of this week is to look for a good pullback for calls, so I will be patient and will try not to force anything. If smart money has a bullish sentiment, there will still need to be a short accumulation phase for calls so I will watch to see what the chart is doing for ATM calls around $620.

SPY 628 – Compression Before Expansion | VolanX Protocol Engaged🧠 SPY 628 – Compression Before Expansion | VolanX Protocol Engaged
📅 July 17, 2025
🔍 SPY (S&P 500 ETF Trust) | 1D Chart
📍 Current Price: 628.04
📈 Chart Thesis by: WaverVanir International LLC
🔗 Powered by VolanX Protocol
🌐 Macro Overview:
The market stands at a critical inflection point, with bulls and bears both pressing their narrative:
The Fed is expected to cut rates in September, with soft CPI and decelerating labor trends justifying a pivot.
Earnings season is bifurcated: Mega-cap tech is leading, while cyclicals are faltering. This raises the risk of a short-term rally masking deeper fragility.
Global macro risks – including rising geopolitical stress in the Asia-Pacific region and commodity volatility – increase the odds of a tail event.
📊 Technical Outlook:
SPY is now hugging a major supply zone near 628 with price stalling for multiple sessions. This area marks a compressed equilibrium where volatility is likely to expand soon. Key technicals:
Rejection candles suggest seller presence near 630.
Price is overextended but remains above all major EMAs.
Breakdown zone sits at 565, which aligns with prior resistance and a major volume shelf.
No current bearish divergence on RSI or MACD, but momentum is flat.
🎯 VolanX Probabilistic Bias:
The system currently anticipates three paths:
Bullish breakout toward 660–675 if the Fed confirms a dovish stance and tech continues to lead.
Neutral grind in the 600–615 zone if macro remains balanced and earnings don’t surprise.
Bearish breakdown to 565 or lower if macro stress emerges or dollar strength accelerates.
🛠️ Options Strategy Highlights:
Bullish Trade Idea: Buy 630C / Sell 660C (30–45 DTE) – Low cost, targets breakout above resistance.
Bearish Trade Idea: Buy 620P / Sell 565P – High R/R play into macro unwind.
Both are defined-risk strategies, ideal in volatile inflection zones like this.

SPY Daily Chart – Rising Wedge at Resistance, RSI Near OverboughSPY continues to push higher, but today's candle reinforces a cautious tone as we approach a key inflection point.
The chart is currently forming a rising wedge pattern — historically a bearish structure that often precedes downside breaks, especially when forming after a strong upside move. Price is hugging the upper boundary of the wedge, with multiple failed breakout attempts near 626.87, which is acting as strong resistance.
The RSI sits at 68.59, just below the 70 overbought threshold. While this confirms strong bullish momentum, it also signals that the move may be getting stretched. A rejection here or a lower high on RSI while price continues higher could form a bearish divergence, a classic early reversal signal.
Volume remains moderate (~51.85M), and the candles have tightened — suggesting indecision. The rising wedge’s lower trendline and the short-term moving average (likely the 8 or 10 EMA) are immediate support. A break below these levels would shift the bias more clearly to the downside.
Key levels to watch:
Resistance: 626.87 (wedge top)
Support: rising wedge lower boundary and EMA (around 620–622)
RSI: break below 65 or a confirmed divergence would increase bearish risk
If the wedge breaks down with a drop in RSI and a flip in momentum indicators (such as Parabolic SAR), it may open the door for a pullback toward previous support zones near 603 or even 592.63.
No confirmation yet, but the risk-reward here starts to shift away from chasing longs. Caution is warranted.
