Trading Plans for TUE.08/15 Back to the Basics, and the Reality?S&P 500 INDEX MODEL TRADING PLANS for TUE. 08/15
Our trading plans published yesterday stated: "The level of 4495-4505 is now the immediate key level for both Support and Resistance. 4445-4452 is the next support level, a daily close below which will turn our models cautiously bearish". This support level is tested on the index as of this morning. Any sustained breach of this support could open 4400 level as the next support level; any rebound will face 4470-4480 as the next resistance level.
With the Fed's interest rate policy, inflation, and the earnings almost in the rear view mirror, markets might be going back to the basics this week in search of a direction. Our trading plans published on Thu., 08/10 stated: "Our models continue to indicate choppy markets until this resolves in either direction, notwithstanding this morning's push up following the rising-not-so-fast inflation numbers".
The risk is to the downside rather than the upside. Bulls should be wary of any bounces up and use that opportunity to take some money off the table.
Aggressive, Intraday Trading Plans:
For today, our aggressive intraday models indicate going long on a break above 4492, 4483, 4458, or 4452 with an 8-point trailing stop, and going short on a break below 4478, 4470, 4455, or 4447 with a 9-point trailing stop.
Models indicate no explicit exits for today. Models also indicate a break-even hard stop once a trade gets into a 4-point profit level. Models indicate taking these signals from 10:46am EST or later.
By definition the intraday models do not hold any positions overnight - the models exit any open position at the close of the last bar (3:59pm bar or 4:00pm bar, depending on your platform's bar timing convention).
To avoid getting whipsawed, use at least a 5-minute closing or a higher time frame (a 1-minute if you know what you are doing) - depending on your risk tolerance and trading style - to determine the signals.

S&P500 On the 1D MA50 after 3 months. Will it hold?Last week we gave a sell continuation signal on the S&P500 index (SPX) after the price failed to break above the short-term Resistance of 4H MA50 (see chart below):
As the price hit the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line) last Thursday for the first time in 3 months, the index found its first long-term Support level. Along with being near the bottom (Higher Lows trend-line) of Channel Up 2 (dotted pattern within the multi-month Channel Up 1), we can attempt the first buy position again and target 4640 (March 29 2022 High). This is a similar situation as May 24 and May 04 (blue circles).
If a 1D candle closes below it though, we will be quick to take the loss and sell the break-out towards the 1D MA100 (green trend-line) at 4350. That is the second long-term Support level, which if broken opens the way for the final one, the 1D MA200 (orange trend-line). The most optimal long-term buy entry will be if the 1D MACD makes a Bullish Cross within the 2023 Support Zone. Potentially that could be near the 1D MA200 and the bottom (Higher Lows trend-line) of Channel Up 1.

Trading Plans for MON. 08/14 - Back To The Basics?S&P 500 INDEX MODEL TRADING PLANS for MON. 08/14
With the Fed's interest rate policy, inflation, and the earnings almost in the rear view mirror, markets might be going back to the basics this week in search of a direction. Our trading plans published on Thu., 08/10 stated: "Our models continue to indicate choppy markets until this resolves in either direction, notwithstanding this morning's push up following the rising-not-so-fast inflation numbers".
Last week's PPI numbers have validated why we didn't give too much weight to the CPI numbers and the markets' bounce following that. Currently, there doesn't appear to be any specific factor driving the markets in any direction, leading to choppy markets to continue.
The level of 4495-4505 is now the immediate key level for both Support and Resistance. 4445-4452 is the next support level, a daily close below which will turn our models cautiously bearish.
Aggressive, Intraday Trading Plans:
For today, our aggressive intraday models indicate going long on a break above 4492, 4483, 4474, 4466, or 4452 with a 9-point trailing stop, and going short on a break below 4478, 4470, 4455, or 4446 with a 9-point trailing stop.
Models indicate explicit long exits on a break below 4462, and explicit short exits on a break above 4458. Models also indicate a break-even hard stop once a trade gets into a 4-point profit level. Models indicate taking these signals from 10:31am EST or later.
By definition the intraday models do not hold any positions overnight - the models exit any open position at the close of the last bar (3:59pm bar or 4:00pm bar, depending on your platform's bar timing convention).

S&P500 INDEX (SPY): Your Trading Plan
S&P500 Index is currently testing a key daily structure support.
To buy the market with a confirmation, watch a double bottom pattern on 4H time frame.
4487 level is the upper boundary of its neckline.
If the price breaks and closes above that on a 4H, it will be a strong bullish signal.
A bullish movement will be expected 4517 level then.
Alternatively, if the price sets a new lower low on a 4H, the setup will become invalid.

The Illuminated Ascension of the Market.Since I presented my bearish prophecy, I've traversed the vast expanse of financial data in search of the Achilles' heel to counter my own narrative. The cosmos itself has conspired this evening to bestow upon me the final pieces of this intricate puzzle.
On the ominous date of 8-18, a staggering 70% of market contracts bow to the bearish sentiment. This, I postulate, is the very reason for a tight squeeze leading up into this date – a sly play to ensure the bears' demise, leaving their positions reduced to mere ephemeral memories. (Forgive my wickedness, for in the end, it's merely the cutthroat dance of commerce).
As the sands of time flow and we bid adieu to 8-18, expect a swift downturn; a mere blip, a hiccup if you will. But fear not, for the hungry wolves shall quickly gather to devour this dip, leading us into the waning days of August and the dawn of September.
Post the ritualistic dance of the wondrous blue moon, brace for a cosmic parabolic squeeze ascending towards the 9-15 expiration - ensuring the bears are banished into the void eternally.
Upon the ethereal touch of 17.2k, my machinations will recalibrate.
Godspeed on your cosmic journey, astral adventurers.

S&P 500, 8/11/23For Friday, 4543.25 can contain session strength, below which 4448.50 remains a 3 - 5 day target able to contain selling through September activity, once tested 4701.25 long-term resistance attainable over that time horizon.
A daily settlement below 4448.50 indicates a good high through September trade, 4112.00 then expected over the following 3 - 5 weeks, where the market can bottom out through the balance of the year.
Upside Friday, pushing/opening above 4543.25 allows 4573.00 intraday, while closing today above 4543.25 reverses momentum through next week, 4617.25 then expected within several days, 4701.25 longer-term resistance within 1 - 2 weeks.

With the Fed and Interest Rates not burning issues anymore (at least for now), with major earnings mostly in the rear view mirror, markets are struggling to find a direction and a relevant factor to latch onto.

S&P500 INDEX (US500): Bearish Pattern & Pullback
S&P500 Index formed a head and shoulders pattern on a daily time frame,
trading in a bullish trend.
The breakout of the neckline of the pattern signifies the local exhaustion of the
buyers and highly probable coming correctional movement.
I expect a bearish movement at least to 4465
❤️Please, support my work with like, thank you!❤️
S&P 500, 8/8/23For Tuesday, 4553.75 can contain session strength, 4526.75 in close reach and able to contain session weakness.
Breaking/opening below 4526.75 signals 4493.75 intraday, while closing today below 4526.75 will keep 4429.50 support in reach by the end of next week, where the market can bottom out through September activity, once tested 4701.25 long-term resistance attainable over that time horizon.
A daily settlement below 4429.50 indicates a good high through September trade, 4103.00 then expected over the following 3 - 5 weeks, where the market can bottom out through the balance of the year.
Upside Tuesday, pushing/opening above 4553.75 signals 4578.75 intraday, while closing above 4553.75 reverses momentum through the balance of the week and into later August, 4617.25 than expected within several days, 4701.25 longer-term resistance within 1 - 2 weeks.
