S&P drops to test THIS key supportThe US markets wobbled at the start of Friday’s session, with major indices pulling back. However, the outlook isn’t overly bearish yet, as the S&P 500 is testing a key level here around 6075. A bounce into the close is still possible from here, but the bulls need to show and quickly. Even if the index closes near current levels, it wouldn't necessarily signal the end of the bullish trend. To turn short-term bearish, I would need to see a breakdown below the 6,000 level, which had been a strong support before the recent breakout. If that level fails, it would be a bearish signal, potentially leading to a deeper correction toward the long-term trendline or even the 200-day moving average. For now, the focus remains on short-term support and resistance levels. The 6075 level, marking the high of the hammer candle from last Wednesday, is a key short-term support level where the 21-day exponential moving average also converges. Should the S&P 500 experience a deeper pullback, this will be the first major test for the bulls. On the upside, 6100 is the level I am watching, which acted as resistance in December and January before breaking last week, and now we are back below it slightly. Beyond this level, there isn’t much immediate resistance until this week’s all-time high of 6148. By Fawad Razaqzada, market analyst with FOREX.com

SPX5-Faces Rejection at Key Resistance?S&P 500 hit 6,129 but failed to hold above it, retreating to 6,090 (-0.75%). This level marks a key resistance zone, with sellers stepping in to cap gains. 🔍 Key Technical Levels: Resistance: 6,129 → Previous high, acting as a short-term ceiling. Support: 6,018 (50-day EMA) → First area bulls want to defend. 5,900 → Stronger structural support if momentum weakens. 📊 Momentum Check: RSI at 54.86 → Neutral, room for both upside and downside. Price remains above the 50-day EMA, keeping the uptrend intact for now. 🚀 What’s Next? Bulls need a decisive close above 6,129 to confirm a breakout. A rejection here could trigger consolidation or a pullback toward the 50-day EMA. Watching for either a breakout confirmation or a deeper retest of support levels.

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.

Your Vote Counts - Help Build the Ultimate Index Watchlist!Hey, I need your help again - this will only take a minute! I’ve said it before, here and to my Substackers: I want to be your reminder to invest . Because let’s be honest, steadily growing your wealth might not be thrilling but it should be your goal! Yes, individual stocks have their place (and I’ll keep sharing ideas on those too), but indexes should be a key part of a solid portfolio. Today’s focus? Maximizing your index purchases. 📊 Proven strategy: A few weeks ago, I ran an experiment comparing QQQ (Nasdaq-100 ETF), SPY (S&P 500 ETF), and IWM (Russell 2000 ETF). Using technical analysis, I outperformed two of them. The tests showed that blind purchasing could be costly: for instance, regular SPY purchases would have left $100,000 on the table, and IWM even more. But here’s the point: this isn’t about blindly picking an index - it’s about timing, risk optimization, and smart diversification. 💡 Now, it’s YOUR turn! Drop two indexes in the comments that you want me to analyze every single month. You decide the final list (likely 4-5 indexes), and I’ll cover them consistently. Whether it’s S&P 500, Nasdaq-100, DAX, Euro Stoxx 50, Russell 2000, or others - you pick, I deliver. 📈 How this helps YOU? ✔️ No overthinking : "What should I buy this month?" - just wait for my post and see the TOP picks ✔️ Keeps you engaged and active in the market ✔️ Builds consistency in your investing ✔️ Ensures every allocation works harder for you ⬇️ Comment your picks below, and let’s make every move count! 🚀 Cheers, Vaido

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.
