Bearish Bias Locked int - Now We wait for the dropBearish Bias Locked In – Now We Wait for the Drop | SPX Market Analysis 11 Feb 2025 The bullish chapter is closed, and our focus is now entirely bearish as we eye a move toward 5980. Futures are already pointing lower, teasing a 20-point drop at the open. Will we get the full range move, or will SPX keep stalling? Either way, we’re locked and loaded—now, we wait for the market to tip its hand. --- SPX Deeper Dive Analysis: 📉 Bearish Positions Locked In SPX is now fully bearish, with bullish trades wrapped up profitably or at break-even following the bear turn signal. This continues to aligns perfectly with our 6 money-making patterns, where we expect a move from range highs to range lows. 📊 Futures Hint at a Lower Open Overnight futures are already down 20 points, suggesting: ✅ A weaker SPX open ✅ A potential move toward 5980 ✅ Confirmation that momentum is shifting lower 🔍 ADD Still Has Room to Fall Yesterday’s ADD reading hit the upper bullish extreme That leaves plenty of downside wiggle room If ADD pushes lower, indexes could also follow through ⏳ For Now, It’s a Waiting Game The bearish setup is in place Price action will dictate the next move A clean range move to 5980 remains the primary target 🚀 Key Takeaway? The market is aligning with expectations, but we still need follow-through to lock in profits. Fun Fact: 📢 Did you know? In 1987, the Dow dropped 22.6% in a single day—the biggest percentage crash in history. That’s the equivalent of the S&P 500 dropping over 1,000 points today! 💡 The Lesson? Even in structured markets, major moves can happen fast. This is why having a rule-based trading system keeps you ahead of the chaos.

S&P500 consolidation is over. Massive rally starting.The S&P500 index (SPX) has been trading within a Channel Up pattern since the October 27 2023 Low. For almost the past 30 days it has been ranging sideways on the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line). The index is no stranger to this at all. On the contrary, this is a common Consolidation Phase that SPX has been through another 3 times within the Channel Up. As you can see, every time the index recovered from a Bearish Leg below the 1D MA50, it consolidated for around 1 month above the 1D MA50 and then resumed the Bullish Leg to complete at least a +15% rise from the bottom. The 1D RSI sequences among all those fractals (including today's) are identical. As a result, we are preparing for a massive rally any day now, expecting a new +15% Bullish Leg to reach at least 6600. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Please LIKE 👍, FOLLOW ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!

S&P - WEEKLY SUMMARY 3.2-7.2 / FORECAST📉 S&P500 – 4th week of the base cycle (average of 20 weeks). The pivot forecast on February 3 pushed the market upward after the overnight tariff gap. If you remember, I was in a short position at Friday’s close on January 31. I got tempted by the overnight tariff hysteria and closed my position in the morning. The European morning provided a great intraday opportunity to buy back the market with a good profit and open a long position on the pivot forecast. ⚠️ The cycle’s beginning looks very bearish, with a short rise followed by a steep drop below the opening level. I anticipated this in early January. By Friday’s close, signs of a double top at the December 9 and January 29 extreme forecast levels appeared. Strong hands with stops above the double top level should have held their short positions from January 24. The impulse from the January 29 extreme forecast is still active. Two long cycles remain open, as noted in the early January post.

PROFIT & LEARN: Confusion Clarity Bar Index (CCBI) Overview The Confusion Clarity Bar Index (CCBI) is a TradingView indicator designed to measure market efficiency and volatility by combining the Efficiency Ratio with a Bollinger Bands %b calculation. This provides traders with a unique way to gauge price movement clarity versus confusion. Key Features: 1. Efficiency Ratio (ER) Calculation: • Measures the directional efficiency of price movements over a user-defined period. • Compares absolute momentum to cumulative volatility to determine efficiency. 2. Bollinger Bands %b Calculation: • Applies a Bollinger Bands overlay to the Efficiency Ratio. • Standard deviation is set very low (default 0.0001) to capture subtle variations in efficiency. 3. Histogram Visualization: • A column-style histogram represents %b values: • Blue bars when %b is above 0.5 (greater market clarity). • Red bars when %b is below 0.5 (higher market confusion). 4. Overbought & Oversold Levels: • 1.0 (Overbought) → Market is exceptionally efficient. • 0.0 (Oversold) → Market is highly inefficient or erratic. • 0.5 (Neutral Level) → Middle ground between efficiency and confusion. 5. Background Highlighting: • Green background when %b reaches 1.0 (strong market efficiency). • Red background when %b reaches 0.0 (extreme market inefficiency). How to Use It: • Trend Confirmation: • If bars remain blue, price movements are likely clear and efficient. • If bars turn red, market uncertainty is increasing. • Reversal Zones: • A move towards 0.0 suggests indecision, potentially signaling trend exhaustion. • A move towards 1.0 indicates strong directional momentum. • Volatility Breakouts: • A sharp shift in %b from low to high may indicate an upcoming trend breakout. This indicator is best used in conjunction with momentum oscillators and volume indicators to confirm market conditions and potential trade setups.

[02/10] SPX – GEX Until the First Weekly ExpirationThe SPX opened with a huge gap-down in both the futures and CFD markets. After the previous two Fridays, there was a massive gap-down in the premarket each time. Everyone was expecting the same scenario again, but it seems the market quickly recovered from the put support at the 6000 level, and we are now steadily moving toward the positive GEX range. Although we are still in the transition zone (where it’s easy to switch between positive and negative GEX territory), we may soon reach the HVL level at 6060, which, if I had to guess, might be adjusted during today’s premarket update. The GEX levels align with the technical foundations: 🟢 6090–6100 to the upside is a bullish take-profit zone, and our purely positive GEX range is fairly narrow. If buying pressure is strong, above 6100 we could see a very strong positive gamma squeeze upward. 🔴 To the downside, “armageddon” could begin if the put support around 6010–6000, which held the sell-off this morning, fails to hold. The next target in a negative gamma squeeze could be 5950, followed by 5900. The transition range is quite wide, and the market is expecting a volatile week (though I believe that from now on it’ll expect volatility every day for the next four years...). The transition zone is sure to narrow by Friday. It’s worth paying attention to the premarket update around 6:45 AM, about three hours before the market opens! If the red zone extends very deep afterward (for example, if it’s red below the HVL level all the way to the put support at around 5950), it indicates a significant downside risk compared to any potential rally—which I don’t think will change unless we get a breakout above 6100. 🔶 So, be cautious with those bullish horns—below 6100, we can’t talk about a confirmed breakout to the upside.

S&P500: Breaking out towards 6,210.S&P500 is neutral on its 1D technical outlook (RSI = 54.592, MACD = 11.130, ADX = 24.014) as it is ranging between the 1H MA50 and 1H MA200. This consolidation is taking place near the top of the Channel Down, a pattern almost identical with January's. When that pattern broke to the upside, it almost hit the 1.5 Fibonacci extension. Our short term target is just under this level (TP = 6,210). ## If you like our free content follow our profile to get more daily ideas. ## ## Comments and likes are greatly appreciated. ##

Why you should choose your trading period carefullyFirst, let's look at the four most important trading sessions. The Forex and stock market is divided into different trading sessions, which are based on the opening hours of the main financial centers: Session Opening Hours (UTC) Major Markets: -> Sydney session 22:00 – 07:00 Australia, New Zealand -> Tokyo session 00:00 – 09:00 Japan, China, Singapore -> London session 08:00 – 17:00 UK, Europe -> New York session 1:00 p.m. – 10:00 p.m. USA, Canada Note: Times vary slightly depending on summer or winter time. Why are trading sessions important? -> Volatility & Liquidity Depending on the session, there are different market movements. High liquidity → tight spreads and better order execution. Low liquidity → greater slippage and wider spreads. -> Active currencies & markets During the Tokyo session, JPY and AUD pairs are particularly active. During the London session, EUR and GBP pairs are the most volatile. During the New York session, USD pairs and stock markets moved the most. Opportunities & risks during overlapping times: The overlaps between sessions are the most volatile times because several major markets are active at the same time. 1. London-New York Overlap (13:00 – 17:00 UTC) → Highest volatility Why? The world's two largest financial centers operate at the same time. Opportunities: Big price moves → good for breakout traders and scalping. High liquidity → tight spreads, fast order execution. Risks: Extreme volatility → rapid price changes can trigger stop losses. News (e.g. US jobs data) can cause sudden movements. Practical example: A trader is watching EUR/USD and sees strong resistance at 1.1000. US inflation data will be released at 13:30 UTC. If the data is better than expected → USD strengthens, EUR/USD falls. If the data is worse → USD weakens, EUR/USD rises. Within a few minutes the price can fluctuate by 50-100 pips. → Strategy: News traders rely on quick movements, while conservative traders extend stop losses or pause during this time. 2. Tokyo-London Overlap (08:00 – 09:00 UTC) → Medium volatility Why? London opens while Tokyo is still active. Opportunities: JPY pairs (e.g. GBP/JPY) are moving strongly. Breakouts through the European opening. Risks: Sudden changes in direction as European traders often have a different market opinion than Asian ones. Practical example: A scalper is trading GBP/JPY in a narrow range of 185.00 – 185.20 during the Tokyo session. At 08:00 UTC London opens with GBP/JPY breaking above 185.50. Within 30 minutes the price rises to 186.00 as European traders buy GBP. If you recognize the breakout early, you can quickly take 50-100 pips. → Strategy: Scalpers rely on quick entries and take profits before volatility subsides. 3. Sydney-Tokyo Overlap (00:00 – 07:00 UTC) → Low volatility Why? Mainly the Asian market is active. Opportunities: Less volatility → good for range trading. Cheaper spreads for AUD and NZD pairs. Risks: Little liquidity → Slippage may occur. Strong moves are rare, except for major news from Japan or Australia. Practical example: A swing trader notes that AUD/USD has been fluctuating between 0.6500 and 0.6550 for days. During the Sydney-Tokyo session the price mostly stays in this range. The trader places a sell limit order at 0.6550 and a buy limit order at 0.6500. Since there is little volatility, it can be profitable with multiple small trades. → Strategy: Range trading is ideal because no major breakouts are expected. Conclusion: Each trading session has its own characteristics, opportunities and risks. The crossovers are the most volatile times - good for day traders, but risky for inexperienced traders. Anyone who understands the market mechanisms can take targeted action at the right time. The strategies mentioned above are simply derivations from the advantages and disadvantages of the respective sessions. Of course, a well-founded strategy concept requires much more.

S&P 500’s Next Big Move: 6,200 or Bust?Hey Realistic Traders, Will CAPITALCOM:US500 Move beyond 6,200? Let’s dive into the analysis... On the daily chart, the S&P 500 is trading above both the EMA-100 and EMA-200, confirming a robust bullish trend. This momentum was reinforced by a falling wedge breakout, a pattern that typically signals the continuation of bullish pressure. Additionally, the price tested the upper trendline twice and bounced off each time, further underlining the strength of the upward move. Considering these strong technical signals, the price is likely to move downward toward the first target at 6.240 or potentially the second target at 6.391. However, this bullish scenario depends on the price staying below the critical stop-loss level at 5844 Support the channel by engaging with the content, using the rocket button, and sharing your opinions in the comments below.

Modest recovery follows weak weekUS stock index futures were all firmer in early trade this morning, recovering a proportion of Friday’s losses. The majors ended last week on the backfoot as investors chose to pare their risk exposure ahead of the weekend. This came after President Trump unleashed a clutch of tariff threats, primarily focused at northern and southern neighbours, Canada and Mexico. These were postponed within hours of being announced as both countries promised to boost security at their US borders. But the additional 10% tariff on US imports from China did go ahead. China has instigated retaliatory tariffs on US imports starting today. Over the weekend, President Trump announced blanket tariffs on all imports of aluminium and steel, along with reciprocal tariffs on any country placing levies on imports from the US. All this uncertainty contributed to a negative week for all four major US stock indices. This was compounded by Friday’s Non-Farm Payroll update which came in weaker than anticipated. Average Hourly Wages came in well above forecasts, and on top of this, the University of Michigan’s Inflation Expectations survey jumped unexpectedly. This increased concerns that inflation in returning as an important issue. There’s evidence of renewed upside pressure, and all measures remain significantly above the Federal Reserve’s 2% target. This has led to another shift in rate cut expectations. According to the CME’s FedWatch Tool, the odds now favour just one 25 basis point rate cut this year. This week brings important inflation updates with the CPI and PPI on Wednesday and Thursday respectively. In addition, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell will testify before Congress tomorrow and on Wednesday. Despite some disappointing results from a few tech giants, this has been a strong earnings season, with earnings growth coming in at its best rate for four years.

Pivot Points Part 2: Support and Resistance LevelsWelcome back to our series on pivot points, an objective a simple tool used by many day traders. In Part 1, we explored the central pivot point, its calculation, and its role as a key reference for market sentiment. In Part 2, we’ll expand on this foundation by diving into the support and resistance levels derived from the pivot point formula. These levels are designed to add depth to your day trading analysis, offering a more comprehensive view of intraday price action. The Mechanics: Support and Resistance Levels In addition to the central pivot point (PP), pivot analysis includes three levels of support (S1, S2, S3) and three levels of resistance (R1, R2, R3). These levels are calculated using the previous session’s high, low, and close. The formulas for the primary levels are as follows: PP = (previous high + previous low + previous close) / 3 S1 = (pivot point x 2) - previous high S2 = pivot point - (previous high — previous low) R1 = (pivot point x 2) — previous low R2 = pivot point + (previous high — previous low) The third levels (R3 and S3) extend even further but are less frequently reached in typical intraday trading. These levels create a structured framework for identifying potential reversal points, breakout zones, and profit targets. S&P 500 5min Candle Chart Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results Using Pivot Levels in Your Trading 1. Trading the Reversal: Support and Resistance in Action One of the most common ways to use pivot levels is to identify potential reversal points. For example, if the price reaches S1 or R1 and shows signs of hesitation, it may indicate a reversal is likely. This is particularly true when combined with candlestick patterns, momentum indicators, or divergence on oscillators like RSI. Example: In this EUR/USD 5-minute chart, we see a textbook reversal at R1. The market initially uses the pivot point (PP) as support and then forms a double top reversal pattern when retesting R1 resistance, signalling a potential upward move. This setup allows traders to enter with a clear stop above R1 and a target near the pivot point or dynamic moving average. EUR/USD 5min Candle Chart Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results 2. Riding the Breakout When momentum is strong, the market can break through pivot levels, turning resistance into support (or vice versa). Watching for breakouts at R1 or S1 can provide excellent entry points for trend-following strategies. Example: In this example, the FTSE 100 having earlier reversed at R1 and broken through PP, briefly consolidates near S1. This is followed by a break lower – triggering a swift move down to S2. FTSE 100 5min Candle Chart Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results 3. Target Setting and Risk Management Pivot levels are also useful for setting realistic profit targets and stop losses. For example, a trader entering a long position near S1 might use the pivot point as an initial target, depending on the strength of the move. Similarly, a short position initiated near R1 could aim for the pivot point as an initial target and S1 as a secondary target, with stops placed just above the breakout level to manage risk. Combining Pivot Levels with Other Tools While pivot levels are powerful on their own, combining them with other tools can significantly enhance their effectiveness: VWAP: If a pivot level aligns with VWAP, it reinforces the level’s importance as a potential support or resistance zone. Prior Days High/Low: Pivot levels that coincide with the previous session’s high or low can serve as stronger reversal or breakout points. RSI: Use RSI to gauge momentum—if price approaches a pivot level while RSI is negative or positive divergence at an overbought or oversold, it can signal a potential reversal. Example: In the below example we see the FTSE hold above VWAP and the pivot level – forming a solid base of support before breaking higher. The market breaks through R1 and the prior days high leading to a charge past R2 to and towards R3. At R3 we see the market start to stall as the RSI shows signs of negative divergence. FTSE 100 5min Candle Chart Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results Summary Pivot points, along with their associated support and resistance levels, offer traders a structured framework for navigating intraday price action. By understanding how these levels interact with market sentiment and momentum, traders can develop more confident strategies for reversals, breakouts, and risk management.

Two zones to long the SPX500Hello Traders, there are 2 zones that you can enter market. the first one is between 5980 and 5950. If it coincides with Bollinger lower band, it could go up more sharply. in that case top of red bearish channel could be considered as the 1st tp. The 2nd option available after breaking the top zone, in reverse to 6132 we could enter the market again. Remember that again Bollinger band could help us to confirm the long trade. 6240 could be used as TP, as well as the higher band of Bollinger band is a good place to take profit.

[02/03] SPX Weekly GEX OutlookSPX shifted into a strong sideways trend after recent market whipsaws, but premarket today saw a sharp sell-off. Now, let’s break down the GEX levels set for Friday’s weekly expiration (first weekly expiry). These are already reflected in today’s GEX data—check them on your indicator! COMMENT: This week, we’ve started updating our seamless GEX & options indicators before the market opens . This has been a long-standing request from users—especially 0DTE traders, who will likely benefit the most. Key GEX Levels for SPX 📍 Highest Positive Call Wall (Call Resistance): 6075 Acted as resistance last Friday, as it often does initially. 📍 Sideways Zone: 6000-6070 (Transition Zone with GAMMA flip) Wide Transition Zone → Expect high volatility or slow drifting within this range. Easy flow between positive and negative GEX profiles, meaning potential sharp moves in either direction. 📍 Put Support (Sum 4DTE): 5900 Very deep support—market is clearly pricing in fear of a potential future drop. 📌Below 6000, there are only negative NetGEX strikes down to 5900, which signals a lack of strong support until that level. What This Means for the Week 📊 SPX opened (gapped down) in negative GEX territory—if buyers don’t reclaim this zone, we are in for a highly volatile week, potentially with a spiking VIX. 🚫 No reason for bullish optimism unless we break above 6070—until then, expect uncertainty and potential downside pressure.

SPX/Escalating Trade Tensions: New Tariffs on Steel and AluminumEscalating Trade Tensions: New Tariffs on Steel and Aluminum The week began with yet another significant announcement, as President Trump, during a media briefing aboard Air Force One, declared a 25% tariff on steel and aluminum imports into the United States. He further indicated that additional reciprocal tariffs could be expected on Tuesday or Wednesday. S&P 500 Technical Analysis The price maintains bearish momentum, having already stabilized within a bearish zone. As long as it trades below 6,051, the market will continue its downward movement toward 6,020. A 4-hour candle closing below 6,020 would confirm a further decline toward 5,970. However, if the price stabilizes above 6,059, it may advance toward 6,085. To establish a confirmed uptrend, the price must hold above 6,103. Key Levels: Pivot Point: 6051 Resistance Levels: 6079, 6103, 6143 Support Levels: 6020, 5969, 5937 Trend Outlook: Bearish scenario: While below 6051, targeting 6020 – 5,970 Bullish scenario: Confirmation above 6059, targeting 6085 – 6103

SPX: cautious on hourly earningsThere has been sort of a mixed mood on financial markets during the previous week. The week started with a positive sentiment, although it was around the level of 5.931 at one short point. The S&P 500 was moving toward the higher grounds for the rest of the week, reaching the highest weekly level on Thursday, at 6.083. Still, after the NFP data were posted, the market turned to the negative sentiment, dropping strongly within the day, finishing the week at the level 6.025. What was the actual problem with the NFP data? The US economy added 143K new jobs, while the market was expecting to see the figure around 170K. This difference is not so huge, so there was no problem. However, the average hourly earnings were the one to spoil the game on the market, considering that they increased by 0,5% above the market estimate of 0,3%. This was the breaking point for investors, where they anticipate that increased earnings will support increased spending in the future period and consequently higher inflation. A higher inflation means that the Fed will hold interest rates at current levels for a longer period of time, which means that investors need to revalue their positions. And, another drop in the US equity markets just happened. Despite job developments, which are temporary, the investors continue to be concerned about trade tariffs imposed, or planned to be imposed, by the new US Administration. This brings higher sensitivity to equity markets, which will react to any news to this topic in the future period. So, it might be expected that the volatility will continue. As for quarterly results of the major companies, Amazon shares dropped around 4% after the results. The company had relatively solid quarterly earrings, however, the push in the price was provoked by providing a relatively low guidance to investors regarding companies expectation for Q1 earnings. They provided only an expectation of 5% to 9% growth in revenues in the first quarter, but analysts are noting that this would be the lowest quarterly growth of the company in its history.
