S&P 500: Gains Driven by Data, Eyes on Key Events Next WeekS&P 500: Gains Driven by Data, Eyes on Key Events Next Week The S&P 500 ended the week on a positive note, buoyed by strong economic data, robust corporate earnings, and supportive seasonality. However, investors are shifting their focus to critical upcoming events: the FOMC meeting on Tuesday and the PCE inflation report on Wednesday. These events have the potential to set the tone for the markets for the remainder of the year. Mixed Economic Data The past week brought a blend of economic data, with some encouraging signals and a few disappointments: Initial Jobless Claims (Nov. 16): At 213K, the result came in better than the 220K consensus, underscoring the resilience of the labor market and reducing recession fears. Philadelphia Fed Manufacturing Index (Nov.): Disappointed at -5.5 against expectations of 8, reflecting continued weakness in the manufacturing sector. Michigan Consumer Sentiment Final (Nov.): Came in at 71.8, below the 73.7 forecast, indicating a slight dip in consumer confidence. S&P Global Services PMI Flash (Nov.): Surprised to the upside with a reading of 57.0, exceeding the expected 55.2, highlighting the strength of the services sector. Nvidia Shines Bright Corporate earnings added to the bullish sentiment, led by Nvidia's impressive Q3 results. The company reported revenue of 35.08 billion dollars, significantly above the consensus estimate of 33.17 billion dollars. As a leader in AI-related technology and semiconductors, Nvidia's results lifted the broader tech sector and contributed to the S&P 500’s gains. Market Sentiment and Seasonality The Fear & Greed Index currently stands at 61, in the "Greed" zone, indicating a risk-on environment as investors show confidence in equities. Seasonality also plays a crucial role. Historically, the S&P 500 benefits from end-of-year trends, especially in an election year, when policymakers often aim to maintain market stability. Challenges Ahead While the current momentum is positive, the market faces significant tests next week with two major events: FOMC Meeting (Tuesday): The Federal Reserve’s policy decisions and commentary will be in the spotlight. Investors will look for signals on whether the Fed plans to pause or keep the door open for further rate hikes in 2024. PCE Inflation Report (Wednesday): The core PCE inflation data, the Fed's preferred measure of price pressures, could shape expectations for monetary policy. A higher-than-expected reading might increase concerns about further tightening, while a lower figure would reinforce the soft landing narrative. Lingering Risks In addition to the upcoming macroeconomic events, investors remain wary of: Trade Policy: Former President Donald Trump’s proposed tariffs on imported goods could stoke inflation and weigh on economic growth. Geopolitics: The ongoing risk of escalation in the Ukraine conflict continues to loom over global markets. Soft Landing: The Baseline Scenario Looking at the current data, the S&P 500 appears to be on the path to a soft landing, supported by a strong labor market and robust technology sector performance. Favorable seasonality—both year-end trends and election-year dynamics—further bolsters the case for continued gains, which remains the baseline scenario for now. Conclusion The S&P 500 has shown strength, but next week’s FOMC meeting and PCE inflation report could reshape market dynamics. The key question is whether the data will support the soft landing narrative or signal a need for further monetary tightening. What are your thoughts on the S&P 500’s outlook given the upcoming Fed meeting and inflation data? Will the index sustain its rally, or are we in for increased volatility?

S&P 500 index short term outlookThe S&P 500 Index (SPX) is trading within an ascending channel on its daily chart, signaling a continuation of the bullish trend. This structure is defined by parallel rising trendlines connecting higher highs and higher lows, indicating strong buyer interest and sustained momentum. Recent price action shows a breakout above minor resistance near the 5,900 level, confirming bullish sentiment. The index is currently moving toward the midpoint of the channel, with potential to test the upper boundary near 6,100. The lower trendline offers solid support, maintaining the channel's integrity. Volume will be crucial in validating any further upward moves. Increased volume during an advance toward the upper boundary would strengthen the bullish case, while declining volume may indicate consolidation or a pause in the trend. For traders, entering a long position while the index remains in the channel could be a viable strategy. A breakout above the upper boundary could present additional upside potential, with profit targets based on the channel's height projected upward. Stop-loss orders can be placed below the lower trendline or the most recent swing low near the 5,800 level to manage risk. This setup suggests the SPX is poised for continued gains, provided the channel remains intact. However, a break below the lower trendline could signal a reversal, requiring caution and adjustment of trading strategies.

The prospect of a recession and a catastrophic market collapseThe prospect of a recession and a catastrophic market collapse looms large. All who are alert to the state of the financial markets cannot fail to recognise that this is an inevitability, following the past few years of flagrant profligacy on the part of the Biden administration and the reckless policies of the Federal Reserve, whose incessant money printing has wrought havoc. The crash I anticipate will likely see a fall of fifty per cent in market values, though it may well prove to be far worse, perhaps as severe as seventy five per cent. It seems probable that this event will unfold at some point in 2025, possibly around September or October, and endure for a number of months. However, it could come much sooner. Inflation, far from abating, is once again on the rise, and we are now mired in stagflation. The outcome is all but certain: there is no remedy, no action the Federal Reserve may take, that will avert the consequences of this disastrous course.

Could we see another drop on SPX500USD?Hi traders, Last week SPX500USD made the correction up like I've said in my outlook. So next week we could see another drop into the Daily FVG lower to finish the correction pattern. Trade idea: Wait for the correction up to finish and make a change in orderflow to bearish. After that wait for a correction up on a lower timeframe and trade (short term) shorts. If you want to see more from my analysis, please make sure to follow me, give a like and respectful comment. This shared post is only my point of view on what could be the next move in this pair based on my analysis. I do not provide trade signals. Don't be emotional, just trade! Eduwave

S&P 500 Daily Chart Analysis For Week of Nov 22, 2024Technical Analysis and Outlook: In this week's trading session, the S&P 500 index has exhibited notable stability at the previously completed Mean Support level of 5856. Following this stabilization, the index is progressing toward a retest of the completed Outer Index Rally level of 6000 and the Key Resistance threshold of 6008. This substantial upward movement may/will precipitate a decline toward the Mean Support level 5920. However, it is crucial to recognize that reaching this support level or any pullback will facilitate a price rebound, thereby positioning the market for the subsequent phase of the bullish trend. This trend will be aimed at the Next #1 Outer Index Rally target of 6123 and potentially extend beyond that level in the near future.

11/18 Volatility Zones: Gamma Squeeze, Chop, and Support LevelsWeekly GEX Levels for SPX: The SPX analysis from last week’s free newsletter seems to have played out well. If you recall, based on the weekly GEX levels, there were no significant gamma levels below 5950. As soon as the price dropped below that, we saw the anticipated red gap-down to 5850 by Friday. With Friday's move, SPX shifted from a positive NETGEX range to a negative one: Let’s not forget: a negative gamma range means that market makers move in the same direction as retail traders, increasing the likelihood of stronger price movements, regardless of the market’s direction. Until the 5900 HVL level is reclaimed, I don’t expect this to change. As we saw today, there was a nice bounce off this level with a rejection, making it a tough resistance to break. If it does manage to break through, there’s currently a call gamma wall at 5925. Clearing this level could open the door to higher ranges again. While the week is still long, if the market fails to regain stability by Friday, breaking below the major 5850 PUT gamma wall could lead to another rapid move down, similar to last Friday, targeting the 5810–5800 range. Gamma Squeeze Zones for SP:SPX & AMEX:SPY this week: Above 5925: Gamma squeeze zone, where upward momentum can accelerate. Chop Zone: Between 5900 and 5930: Sideways movement expected, with the market consolidating in this range. High Volatility Zone: Below 5900: High volatility zone, indicating increased intensity in market movements. Market Makers Hedging Behavior Shift Zone: Around 5900: A critical zone where market makers may adjust their hedging strategies. Call Resistance: Below 5940: Reduced volatility expected as call resistance limits upward movement. Put Support Levels: Around 5850: Highest negative NETGEX/PUT support level. Between 5810 and 5800: Additional put support levels acting as key supports; if 5850 broken, turbulence is expected. IV and Skew Data: IVR: 16.9 increasing IV Average: 14.9 increasing PUT pricing skew: 31.5%

Beautiful $SPX price action, ascending triangleLONG TERM TREND: Neutral/Bearish TIMEFRAME: Intraday What a textbook ascending triangle pattern we're witnessing on SP:SPX today! 👀 Price action has been absolutely pristine, giving us multiple touches on both the ascending support trendline and the horizontal resistance. Each bounce off support has been getting progressively higher, while sellers continue defending that key overhead level - classic ascending triangle behavior. The swings within this pattern have been a trader's dream - offering clean entries and exits for those playing the range. We've seen buyers step in with conviction at each test of the rising support, leading to predictable bounces. However, there's a concerning development here... While ascending triangles are typically considered bullish continuation patterns, the momentum on each bounce is getting noticeably weaker. Volume has been declining throughout the pattern formation (a bearish divergence), and the last two tests of resistance showed significant rejection wicks. If this declining momentum continues, watch for a break below the ascending support line. Such a break would likely trigger a cascade of stops and could lead to an accelerated move lower. Key levels to watch would be 5950, 5940 and ultimately 5925. Remember to always manage risk and size positions appropriately. No pattern is guaranteed to play out as expected. What are your thoughts on this setup? #SPX #TechnicalAnalysis #ChartPatterns
