Are We Completing the Larger Ending Diagonal Now?The last time I updated followers of my work; I stated that the pattern was advancing, but NOT with confidence, and that it is marked with choppy, overlapping price action that appears to be an ending diagonal. Those sentiments have not changed.
However, what has changed is I was forecasting a more pronounced drop first before getting to new highs. It is now possible; this move higher is completing that move on a more immediate basis. Although I cannot rule out the previous larger ABC... it is more likely once this high completes, it could represent the end of the bull market.
Only the structure of the decline will inform us what is playing out.
I will warn followers that once this more immediate high completes, I am expecting a forceful and swift reversal that will undoubtedly catch most traders off guard.
Best to all,
Chris

**What’s are some news or takeaway from today? and What major news or event impacted the market today? **
I was a little busy this morning and missed the chance to short the market at MOB with Bearish market structure at 9:30, so I had to wait for the next chance but when i shorted the MOB on the move up, the X7 buy signal came out and pushed market structure bullish.
Ultimately If i had a better entry on my short, I would have been okay, but since i shorted early, i got stopped at at 6306 and it ended up dropping right after that. So the day actually started pretty bad and i was -300 from there and was just trying to climb back and forth the next few hours.

TACO about to become TUFTThe acronym "TACO" has been adopted as a market slogan to explain the shocking volatility brought on by Trump's follow through with his campaign promises to enact and/or adjust tariff's in the USA on its trading partners around the world. The mere mention resulted in a 1,334 point sell-of culminating in April. When Trump walked back {read: backed off in terms of immediacy of effect..} the market "rallied."
However, at the bottom of the lows, ES1=4,832, all strength fell out of the index and all Minor pattern lows were breached. This leads me to believe that 4,832 was just that...a LOW and not a bottom. To resolve this aspect of the price pattern in relation to strength, price and go for a higher low on less strength, or a lower low on more strength...either way, this can only result in a sell-off of .618 of 1,334, or approximately 824 points. Assuming participants intend to go lower on more strength, the bottom will be struck approximately 2,159 points lower in the 4,200 region, since this irregular B has complicated the direct 1.0 hit in the 4900 region. Still possible, but unlikely we swing within 100 points of the low, all while strength falls out and holders get brave.
The other problem I see with this wave higher is that it is sloppy. How?
(1) It is sloppy first of all because as it approached its 1.382 level off the first wave up (at least as noted by a premier Elliot Wave pub) it basically ripped right through. What is healthy for an impulse is to approach the 1.382, then pause for a retracement to the 1.0.
(2) The wave began with an obvious 3 wave pattern, and I was surprised to see prominent publications accepting such an obvious corrective pattern as the start of a true impulse upward. The 3 waves that took us to 5,528.75 are accordingly labeled as the A wave on this chart. Even if this is an Ending Diagonal, which is a motive wave, but not an impulse, which starts with 3 waves, we should at minimum get overlap at the 5,528.75 level in order to continue higher.
(3) We are getting mixed MACD readings between the daily and hourly charts right where price would be expected to blast off if the daily is correct and would be expected to fail if the hourly bearish divergence is correct.
As we approach this 1.618 level of 3,398.75 on ES2, off the pattern as stated, we can use it to guage the downside expectation. A direct hit and sell-off might lead us to the conclusion that the 4900s are in order or even 5400s, but a failure here, 10-20 points off, would be considered more bearish. Giving the benefit of the doubt to price, I have included various ways that price can regain its footing, here stating a primary count that this is the Minor A of an intermediate (B) wave, because it has been very bullish, very disorganized, and has created a higher MACD reading on the daily chart. Alt count is that this is All of Intermediate (B), and Intermediate C should commence to carry price into the low 4k region.
If price is to go higher, it must overcome a 3 wave start, an irregular and disorganized pattern, and conflicting strength readings...not to mention, a Fundamental hurdle that Trump Ultimately Follows Through.

MES1! Stacked Rejection & Distribution into NY ClosePrice is stalling above PDH after tapping a clear HVRA (Supply) zone. We’re seeing layered rejection with a Secondary Distribution Shelf forming beneath it a classic signature of trapped longs and passive seller absorption.
If structure fails to hold above the rejection zone, we expect a reversion through the inefficiency and potential rotation into the demand base.
Key Zones & Structure
HVRA (Supply): 6345–6355 – Liquidity exhaustion, failed breakout
Secondary Distribution Shelf: 6315–6325 – Trap zone, weak re-test
Mean Reversion Target: 6285–6295 – Execution gap, inefficient rotation
Absorption Zone (Demand): 6260–6275 – Institutional long buildup
Bearish Trade Idea
Entry: 6332 (within HVRA)
Stop: 6342 (above HVRA high)
TP1: 6300 – Break of shelf
TP2: 6288 – Fill inefficiency
TP3: 6270 – Rotation into demand
R:R: Approx. 1:2.8 / 1:4.2 depending on target
Staakd Outlook
Stacked rejection with no volume follow-through above PDH. Unless NY reclaims 6330+ with force, structure favoUrs reversion to inefficiency and absorption zone below.
Follow for post-session confirmation and Friday morning bias update.
Staakd Bias: Bearish Lean ★★★★☆
Positioning itselfThe structure in the S&P 500 daily chart implies a market with a bias to the upside positioning itself for the release of fundamental information this week.
In forty years of trading, I have tried a lot of methods....In forty years of trading, I have tried a lot of methods. Over the years, things have changed. Right now, I swing trade S & P 500 Index ETFs through a commission free broker off this chart
GLOBEX FUTURES and this one single indicator. I always enter after the daily close, in the aftermarket. Trade at a price, a limit order "all or none". NOTE: You must chart FUTURES to get the signal at 6:00 PM NYC time in order to have it to position in the aftermarket. if you, chart SPX cash market, the TradingView "runtime" won't show the signal until the RTH opening "tomorrow". NO GOOD ...because overnight trading can gap the cash market. Try 5 minute chart for DAY trading Futures: use only RTH ! try configuring 3, 7, and 13, "swing" values. Happy trades! P.S. I am long right now SPX ETF.
TRADING RANGE - ES!DT on the daily, ES! may pullback a little bit lower before moving up and breakout to a establish a new high. Last Friday was a High2 pullback, close lower than the previous bar. Looks like a consolidation or a trading range between 6336 to 6246. On the 15min paints 2 potential move either up or down, and bias seems to be bearish to complete the symmetry of the previous down leg then reverse back up. Rule of thumb buy or sell stop 1 tick above or below the marked lines.
Inside to higher Although the S&P 500 daily chart broke to the downside the Asia session is indicating buyers are supporting this market. It implies an inside day within Thursday’s range to a higher close going into the weekend.
Profit takingThe structure in the S&P 500 daily chart implies profit taking on Friday. The expectation is there will not be dramatic selling on Monday. It is important to keep in mind a broader structure is a potential double top which could present a long-term high for this market.
ES, SPY, SPX will be testing key support on Sunday After a welcome rally into new highs for the s&p, there appears to be a critical crossroad forming. Using the ES continuous contract I have placed 2 anchored VWAP's. The first being anchored to the last higher low on Thursday, June 19. And the the second, being anchored to this last Thursdays high on July 3rd.
For this post we will call the anchor from June 19 - VWAP1. And for the July 3rd anchor - VWAP2
VWAP1 r1 has acted as a key support line since the higher low was set. Successfully bouncing and holding support several times.
As we headed lower on this Thursdays July 3rd session, we remained between the center and r1 of VWAP2 indicating strong selling pressure for the day. With it being a shortened trading day with less liquidity however, I have less concern over the days price action. The forming crossroads and the upcoming Sundays open will be more telling for where we likely head this week.
The blue Horizontal Line at 6266 is placed directly on VWAP1s r1 (green line) which has acted as support. If we trade into this level on the Sunday open, it's a clear signal the sellers are still in control. If however, price can consolidate at that level (6266) and form structure, a breakout of the structure would be evidence of sellers backing off and buyers stepping in creating a good buying opportunity for the week.
Another possible scenario, if we first manage to trade up into s1 of VWAP2 (orange line) around the 6300 level, I will be looking for a short scalp down to the r1 of VWAP1 at 6266. From here it would be prudent to sit and wait for more confirmation on if this is a reversal, or just another pullback in the uptrend.
These are my two trade setups and ideas for Sunday's open. Hope this analysis helps. Happy trading 🤙💰📈
14 day look ahead at ES spy futures
CME_MINI:ES1! I am watching fundamentals and any incoming tariff news this week (mostly for scalps on small timeframes). This is because of the Japan news reaction we saw last week which presented good opportunity.
Bear: I am watching price seek possible consolidation up here after being bullish at a strong upwards angle. I see small exhaustion being cooled off and possibly looking for more cooling until the middle of this week, I expect no serious price movement until Wednesday July 9, 2025. Watching that 4h green slanted trendline to break for scalping opportunities. If the white larger trendline is broken I will be considerably more bearish that we would likely reach a price of 5,805 or lower again, this would be a lot to ask but it is a location I would assume price would find solid support if reaching that area in the future weeks/ month. Watching horizontal lines for support this week specifically at price 6,271 to be broken or held. There looks like there is some slim price action (little support or resistance) from 6,100 to where we are now. This could push the downward volume quicker to the downside possibly presenting great opportunity for bears in the possible near future, if we break down below 6,197.
Bull: we are clearly in a macro bullish trend it is silly to decide we would all of a sudden drop significantly unless something obscene happens fundamentally. I step into this week assuming we will keep strong upward trendlines far above the macro (my white thick) trendline. watching fib extension levels for more upside since we are consolidating a bit already it would be easy to assume we will jump up to the .236 at 6,342 and even get to the .382 at 6,387 and higher. I still expect the ADX to cool down here in the beginning of the week if not all week. I also assume to see the rsi finish its bearish divergence off with a strong predicted sell off- but to reach higher highs after (buy the dip, trade the reaction, WAIT for the dip).
SPX Is Pure RiskAbsolutely insane for people to be saying things like "a new bull market" when it never ended. All of the risk is to the downside. If markets ran another 10% to the upside that gives investors a chance to determine if they want to buy a correction to see new highs or not. But to say that a bull market is coming is the antithesis of thinking when current risk is all downside.
This is risk management 101:
Lets say you have a SP:SPX target of 10,000, would you rather buy it at 6,500 where you know your downside is 7-8% or right here at 6300 with a potential downside of 22%+?
Who in the market is long right now? Everyone because all the short sellers are stopped out, and the dumbest of money the guys who just got promoted to the rank of captain in the branch of hindsight bought the "breakout."
The retracement to the highs has been one of the most hated rallies off of a bounce ever seen and why? Because it required a large amount of vibes and to a degree stupidity to buy where it bounced but it paid off. So if it was borderline stupid to do that, what does it mean to lever up at the top?
The correct method is to either be short here or be patient for a breakout with volume and a successful retest. There you can limit your downside and have nearly unlimited upside if it plays out that way.
2025 Q1 + 6M/12M ranges 8h interim cycling bullish.
s1 @ 5554
r1 @ 5592
macro r1 @ 5738
sustain above and macro rotation pushes higher, r2 @ 5921.
its 8 days into the trading month and we've spent the entire 1M atr with extension to the downside.
8H / 1D interim rotation is bullish and no hh on di- since feb 27, despite almost a 500pt drop.
Extended boxes for 6M / 12M, and major levels noted for annual sup/res also marked.
In the last 20+ years, 12M candles closing red still printed an avg 4.74% H above the open; and after hitting lows, closed the year with an 9.97% rebound.
The rotation is a feature not a flaw.
Accept that it's fixed, and you'll see that nothing is broken.
You'll know the signal when you see it.
Appreciate the risk.
ES1! S&P500 Might Lose Momentum As Tariffs Deal Not Set...price could probably be testing all time highs. Before plunging....
if the volumes comes with it and reaches the all times high levels, that could be a nice short entry point for potential profits.
Otherwise, it could probably just fill the gap on week open and keep going down in a regular pattern until August as Trumps Tariffs Deals deadline is around that time possiblily...
Sellers have returnedSellers returned during the shortened session on Friday, July 4. The issue now is this profit-taking or has this market gotten so high that new sellers are entering the market. We will not have the final answer on that until next week and we see what type of follow through if any occurs in this market.
Stock Index: ES, NQ, YM Weekly Update📈 S&P 500, Nasdaq & Dow Jones – All-Time Highs, But Caution Creeping In
🟩 S&P 500 | Nasdaq | Dow Jones
All three indices hit new all-time highs to close out June.
Powered by:
🔋 AI optimism
💰 Solid earnings
🕊️ Dovish Fed tone and falling bond yields
SPX continued its breakout run
Nasdaq surged as big tech led the charge
Dow followed with slower but steady strength
⚠️ But Watch the Signs Beneath the Surface
Consumer confidence dropped sharply
Home sales weakened
Fed speakers remained non-committal on cuts
All three indices now look extended — particularly Nasdaq
Momentum remains bullish, but these rallies are now resting on softening macro, yield compression, and hope that the Fed stays on hold.
🧠 Key Takeaway
Price action is euphoric — but fundamentals are flashing mixed signals.
When tech leads the market at extremes, volatility risk is elevated.
