S&P 500 Reached The Top - Correction UnderwayThe S&P 500 looks to have reached a significant top - being rejected from the 1:1 Fibonacci extension on the Weekly Timeframe. With other confluence like the rising wedge, high weekly RSI levels, and a decreasing momentum on the MACD, all things point downwards for the stock market in 2025. The next target would be the blue zone where a potential chance for reversal could occur. A top in the S&P 500 could also signal tops forming on major stocks like NASDAQ:AAPL , NASDAQ:TSLA , etc. so keep a lookout.

SPY at a Critical Juncture: Will it Reversal or More Pain Ahead?In the past two days, SPY (S&P 500 ETF) has experienced a pronounced downturn, raising critical questions about the next directional move. Today's price action indicates a pivotal moment, with the market consolidating near a key support level at $584. The question remains: is this a pause before a bounce, or a precursor to further downside? This detailed analysis breaks down SPY's current technical setup, provides actionable trade levels, and offers insights into potential scenarios for tomorrow's session. Let’s dive into the charts and indicators to uncover opportunities. Technical Market Trend Analysis 1. Downtrend Confirmation * Price Structure: SPY has formed consistent lower highs and lower lows over the past two sessions, clearly defining a downtrend. The breach of the critical $587 support level early in today’s session amplified selling pressure. * Trendlines: A descending channel on the hourly chart below further confirms bearish control, with price respecting the upper boundary of the channel as resistance. 2. Volume Dynamics * Selling Pressure: Noticeable volume spikes during the declines highlight strong participation by sellers. * Reduced Buying Interest: Rebounds were marked by lower volume, indicating a lack of commitment from buyers. Key Levels to Watch Support Levels 1. $584: The current zone where price consolidates. This is the first line of defense for bulls. 2. $580: Major gamma exposure support level (GEX7). Breaching this level could accelerate downside momentum toward $575. Resistance Levels 1. $587: Immediate resistance. A reclaim of this level would signal strength and could trigger short covering. 2. $590: Aligned with gamma resistance and psychological significance, this is the next target for a bullish breakout. Indicators in Play EMA Analysis * The 9 EMA and 21 EMA are both sloping downward, acting as dynamic resistance levels. This reinforces the short-term bearish trend. MACD * The hourly MACD shows bearish momentum, with a widening histogram and a negative crossover. However, a slight tapering in the histogram near the end of the session hints at potential consolidation or a reversal attempt. Options Oscillator and GEX Insights * Gamma Levels: * $584: Current pivot, showing strong put positioning. * $580: Heavy put support; any break below this would likely see rapid downside. * $590: Significant call resistance; a breakout above would indicate a shift in sentiment. * Sentiment: Dominance of 102.7% puts reflects bearish sentiment in the options market. Trading Strategy Scenario 1: Bullish Reversal Setup 1. Entry: Enter long above $587 with confirmation of strong volume. 2. Target: $590 for the first target, $593 for the second. 3. Stop-Loss: Place stops at $585 to minimize risk. 4. Justification: * Reclaiming $587 would signal a potential reversal or at least a relief rally. * $590 aligns with gamma resistance, offering a logical profit target. Scenario 2: Bearish Continuation Setup 1. Entry: Short below $584 with increasing sell volume. 2. Target: $580 for the first target, $575 for the second. 3. Stop-Loss: Place stops at $585.50 to cap risk. 4. Justification: * A breakdown below $584 would confirm the continuation of the downtrend. * Heavy put support at $580 would likely provide the next pause point. Market Outlook While the short-term trend is bearish, the market is approaching a critical inflection point. Tomorrow’s session will likely determine whether SPY bounces from oversold conditions or continues its descent. Watch for high-impact news and volume trends to validate directional moves. Conclusion SPY’s price action reflects a decisive moment. Both bulls and bears have clear opportunities depending on how the key levels at $584 and $587 play out. Use disciplined risk management and wait for confirmation before entering trades. Disclaimer This analysis is for educational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice.

SPY to $650 in January?SPY recently retraced to the bottom of our Magic Linear Regression Channel with a large 3%+ move. Today, there was a nice bounce bounce from the channel bottom, back up to yesterday's open. So, what's next for SPY. The Magic Linear Regression Channel shows upside potential to it's baseline back at its recent all-time highs, and the potential for a higher move to the $630-$650 range. However, there is also the potential for it to fall back through the channel. Since we've been in a bull market for awhile now, that channel break would have to happen more definitively in order for that to be a likely scenario. We've recently introduced the Magic Candles PRO indicator, which shows high volume candles that have very little price movement. When paired with the Magic Linear Regression Channel on a 1 day chart, it tends to show reversals at key levels on the Magic Linear Regression Channel. However, because we had a large move down on Weds, Dec. 17th 2024, and a large move up on Friday, Dec. 20th 2024 and ended up at the open of Thurs., Dec. 18th 2024, we get a doji on the 2 day chart that shows a massive "volume hammer" signal not seen since 2019, 5 years ago. This signals that we are on the verge of a large sustained move. Again, because we've been in a bull market, and there aren't any very strong signs that it is over, we suspect that the large sustained move will be to the upside, because of the signal. If the price breaks down out of the channel, then we'll be in for a nice downward ride. Until that happens, though, we're bullish as we approach the all-time high again, and all the way to the $630-$650 range.

SPY Technical Analysis (TA) and GEX Analysis for Dec. 181. Daily Chart (1D) * Trend: SPY is trading within a well-established upward channel. The price recently hit resistance at the upper channel line (~609), suggesting overbought conditions. * Support Levels: * 590: Key short-term support, aligned with the lower EMA support. * 577-571: Major support zone; a breakdown here signals a bearish shift. * Resistance: * 609-610: Upper trendline resistance. SPY has failed to hold above this range. * Indicators: * MACD: Bearish divergence forming as momentum weakens while price pushes higher. * Volume: Strong volume uptick at recent highs, suggesting possible distribution. Bias: The daily chart signals caution, with a potential pullback to 602-604 (middle channel) or further to 590. 2. Hourly Chart (1H) * Price Action: SPY shows rejection from the upper resistance (~609) and is trending downward towards key intraday support at 602-603. * Support/Resistance: * Support: 602 (highest PUT Wall in GEX), 604 (confluence of EMA and PUT Wall). * Resistance: 607-608 (CALL resistance). * Indicators: * MACD: Bearish crossover; momentum remains negative. * Trendlines: SPY is testing lower channel support on this timeframe. Bias: SPY is likely to remain range-bound between 603-607 for now. A break below 602 could accelerate downside pressure. 3. GEX Analysis * Key GEX Levels: * 607: CALL Resistance (1.25%). Likely an upper cap. * 603: Highest negative NETGEX/PUT Support. This level is critical; breaking below it increases bearish momentum. * 602: Second PUT Wall (-32.62%), significant downside target. * Options Oscillator: Indicates PUT dominance with 56.9% Puts versus Calls. * IVR (Implied Volatility Rank): 16.7 — IV remains low, suggesting minimal volatility expectation. GEX Insight: The options market suggests 603 is the battleground. Bulls need to reclaim 607 to push higher, while bears will attempt to defend the PUT-heavy zones at 603-602. Trade Outlook for SPY * Bearish Setup: Look for rejection at 605-607. A breakdown below 603 can target 602, with potential downside extension to 600. * Bullish Setup: A strong rebound off 603 with volume could signal a push back to test 607. Break above 608 confirms bullish continuation. Conclusion SPY remains at a critical juncture near upper resistance. Monitor 603 closely, as a break or bounce here will dictate short-term direction. Options GEX levels highlight a PUT-heavy market, favoring bearish pressure unless bulls reclaim higher ground. This analysis is for educational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice.

Deep short for SPY? My target is at 510, here why!Christmas Eve Rally? - Not quite. Trump Trade? - Hardly. So, what’s driving the market higher, and where is SPY headed next? Investor sentiment surrounding the upcoming U.S. presidential elections seems to echo the euphoria of 2016, raising hopes for a similar post-election rally. Themes like tax cuts, protectionism, and trade wars are fueling optimism for U.S. equities. But let’s not get carried away. The economic and geopolitical landscapes today are vastly different, and so is the narrative. The “Superman” Trump of 2016 no longer holds the same sway over markets. The post-COVID stock market rally was buoyed by an unprecedented flood of liquidity. Based on our analysis, those excess dollars are nearly spent. Furthermore, the global economic outlook bears little resemblance to the relatively stable environment of 2016. While the Democrats’ recent performance metrics provide Powell with ample material to champion a “resilient economy,” the bigger question remains: Is the U.S. stock market truly worth its current valuations? We’ll delve into the overvaluation of the #SPY and #SPX indices in greater detail in the coming updates. For now, you can pay close attention to technical analysis, identifying key peaks and potential correction levels.

Watchlist (12/16-12/20) Using TheStratSPY Analysis: Month is 2U but back under previous M high and close to flipping red. Last week was 2D but failed to get to magnitude and closed red, but above the reversal trigger at previous week lows. Daily was 2D on Friday, so the daily actionable signal would be a 2D-2U reversal if buyers were strong enough to make a higher high on the daily come Monday. To get us lower, we have a 3-1 4HR setup as well as a shooter 2U Hourly candle. Trigger and target levels can be seen on the chart. Overall, we have some confliction as the D and W are red while the M is still green. This shows an attempt to flip the month red and we must view it this way until we see a daily higher high. If that were to happen, then we look to see the week flip red and then possibly make a higher high on the week for the weekly reversal back to the upside, which would re confirm the month being 2U and green. Traditional TA traders will see a wedge or bull flag on the daily/4HR, but as Strat traders, we know this is just a lack of strength from either side as we continue seeing failed attempts to make HHs and LLs. Although unconventional, if you check the 3 Day TF through the 8 Day TF, you will see they are all currently inside bars in formation still. We also know that inside bars restart the process of making broadening formations, so now its just a waiting game. We see the current attempt is to make lower lows on the daily since we failed to take highs out after the daily reversal, so we now either take out lows, or fail and move back through previous range to the upside. With conflicting situations like this, you just have to rely on timeframe continuity. Until the M, W, D, and 60 are all the same color, simply fall back on top down analysis and timeframe continuity to see what's really going on regardless of how the charts may look Weekly Watchlist: Bullish: ETSY - 2-1 Week, Failed 2D Day. FTFC Green, so looking for BF expansion on the weekly CRWD - 2-1 Hammer Week. 4HR inside bar. Monthly 3-2-2 still slowly compounding 2Us to Mag RBLX - MoMO Hammer 2U week. 2-1 Daily to trigger week RKLB - 3-2D Hammer Week. Relatively large ATR and high rVol Bearish: MCD - 3-1 Week, Shooter 2U Day PINS - 3-2U failed Week, No Daily AS. Weekly Motherbar issues so caution here PDD 1-2U failed week (Revstrat). No Daily AS. Going for large weekly BF magnitude ROKU - Failed 2U Week. At Monthly exhaustion risk. Daily PMG and gap fill potential OXY - 2-1 Shooter Week. Not much range, but clean weekly AS and all big oil names deep red DDOG - 2-1 Week (Huge red week), Daily 1-3. 2 Daily gap fills, and some weekly lows to target LVS - 2-3 Week. At Q exhaustion. Will be FTFC Red before W triggers the 3-2D Neutral: WMT - 2-1 Week, Daily 3-2D failed. Daily AS could send it back into ATH. Alternatively there is an 11 pivot PMG to the downside + a small gap to fill

SPY Technical Analysis PredictionThis chart is a daily timeframe for SPY (S&P 500 ETF), displaying multiple indicators such as pivot points, dark pool levels, trendlines, moving averages, and volume. The current market structure suggests a potential trend transition phase, with price currently consolidating near critical support levels. Key Observations: 1. Trend Structure: The long-term uptrend is still intact, supported by the green ascending trendline originating from prior lows. The recent pullback breached the 8 EMA and 21 EMA, which implies short-term bearish momentum. However, price is consolidating near the S1 pivot level (579.18), suggesting possible support. Higher Highs (HH) were achieved earlier in the trend, but the failure to maintain levels near the R1 pivot (614.64) indicates resistance and profit-taking. 2. Support and Resistance: Resistance Zones: 600-604: A psychological resistance level and the approximate region of the 8 EMA. 609.07: The previous swing high and a critical level for a bullish continuation. R1 (614.64): A strong pivot resistance level. Support Zones: Immediate support at S1 (579.18), which aligns with current consolidation. Lower supports are seen at S2 (555.80), S3 (543.72), and the ascending green trendline (~524). Dark pool levels between 513.20 - 522.91 represent critical institutional zones, which may act as strong support. 3. Volume Profile: Significant volume spike on the most recent red candle indicates institutional activity. If price remains above key supports (S1, S2), this could suggest accumulation. A breakdown below S1 would imply further distribution and downside. 4. Dark Pool Levels: Dark pool prints at 522.91, 518.92, and 513.20 mark critical price levels for institutional interest. A break into these levels would indicate bearish momentum but could offer significant buying opportunities near those zones. Trade Setup: Scenario 1: Bullish Reversal from S1 (579.18) Trigger: A strong bounce off S1 with price reclaiming the 8 EMA (currently near 600) would confirm bullish momentum. Profit Targets: 595-600: The immediate resistance zone and EMA alignment. 609.07: The swing high from earlier in December. 614.64 (R1): A longer-term target at the pivot resistance. Stop-Loss: Below 575, as this invalidates the bullish setup. Scenario 2: Bearish Breakdown Below S1 (579.18) Trigger: A break below S1 with high volume and price failing to reclaim the 8 EMA would confirm bearish continuation. Profit Targets: 565.16: The prior swing low and intermediate support. 555.80 (S2): A strong pivot support level. 543.72 (S3): A deeper downside target. Stop-Loss: Above 595, as it would indicate a reversal back above resistance. Scenario 3: Long-Term Reversal Near Dark Pool Levels If price falls into the dark pool zones (522.91-513.20), this could offer significant long-term buying opportunities, especially near the ascending green trendline (~524). Final Thoughts: Short-Term Outlook: Consolidation near S1 requires close monitoring for either a bullish reversal or a bearish breakdown. Volume and price action at the EMAs and pivot levels will be crucial indicators. Long-Term Outlook: The green trendline and dark pool levels represent strong support zones, offering potential for accumulation if prices drop further.

$SPY correction incoming? Back below $550AMEX:SPY is putting in a short term top here. All of the signs are there if you know what to look at. For example, NASDAQ:TLT up 2% today. AMEX:SPY sold off throughout the day. Crypto selling off. Volatility starting to react at the bottom of the range. Dollar continuing to rise. The chart also is failing at resistance. I could see one more attempt at a move higher, and if we fail at $602 or lower and fall back below $597, it'll be extremely bearish and the confidence in this move playing out strengthens. I think we'll see $527-531 over the next couple of weeks. Playing the move through CBOE:UVXY calls.

SPY Crashed Today: Where Will It Head Tomorrow? (Dec. 19)The market witnessed a steep decline today, with SPY reflecting significant selling pressure. This crash-driven move indicates a pivotal shift in market sentiment, raising questions about support levels and potential recovery zones. Market Structure Analysis * Trend Overview: The daily chart shows SPY breaking below its ascending channel, signaling a potential trend reversal or deep correction. * Volume: An extraordinary spike in sell-side volume highlights panic selling and a possible capitulation phase. * Sentiment: Sentiment appears bearish in the short term, driven by macroeconomic fears. Supply and Demand Zones * Demand Zone: $577–$580 (critical for any potential bounce). * Supply Zone: $602–$607 (will act as immediate resistance on recovery attempts). Order Blocks and Support/Resistance * Key Resistance: * $591: A psychological and structural level. * $602: High volume node and previous breakdown level. * Key Support: * $580: Near-term support; failure to hold could test $572. * $567: A crucial lower-level support. Key Indicators * EMA: * 9 EMA and 21 EMA crossed bearish, confirming short-term downtrend momentum. * MACD: * Deep in bearish territory, momentum remains strongly negative. * RSI: * Oversold on multiple timeframes, signaling potential for a technical bounce. Options Flow and GEX * Put Wall: Significant at $590 and $580 levels, suggesting bearish bias remains strong. * Call Wall: $604–$607, indicating heavy resistance if price retraces upward. * Gamma Exposure (GEX): Negative, reinforcing current bearish momentum. Scalping vs. Swing Outlook * Scalping: * Look for intraday bounces from $580 to $586 with tight stop-loss below $578. * Swing Trading: * Wait for confirmation of bottoming signals near $577 before entering long. Bearish positions remain valid below $590. Actionable Suggestions 1. Short-Term Bullish: * Entry: Near $580 support. * Exit: Around $586–$588 resistance. * Stop-Loss: Below $578. 2. Short-Term Bearish: * Entry: On rejection at $590. * Exit: Target $580 or lower. * Stop-Loss: Above $592. Conclusion SPY's break of key support levels indicates a bearish short-term outlook. However, oversold conditions suggest a technical bounce could occur in the $577–$580 range. Monitor key levels and macro catalysts closely before positioning.

SPY (S&P 500 ETF) Short Setup – Retracement OpportunityOverview: The SPY (S&P 500 ETF) shows a potential short opportunity, leveraging a confluence of Elliott Wave and Fibonacci resistance. This setup aligns with a bearish corrective pattern, presenting a chance to capture downside momentum amidst macroeconomic uncertainties. 📊 Technical Analysis: Elliott Wave Structure: Wave W completed with a sharp decline, followed by a retracement in Wave X. Anticipating the continuation of Wave Y lower, targeting Fibonacci extensions. Fibonacci Levels: Entry Zone: $598.33–$599.23 (between the 61.8% and 65% retracement). - Stop-Loss: $606.64 (above the 88% retracement to account for false breakouts). - Target 1: $585.78 – Aligns with prior support and Fibonacci extensions. - Target 2: $570.14 – Extended target toward the 1.618 projection. Short Zone Confirmation: The short zone aligns with key resistance levels that previously rejected bullish attempts. 🌐 Macro Overview: Economic Indicators: Rising treasury yields and persistent inflation concerns are weighing on equities, particularly large-cap indices. The Federal Reserve's hawkish stance on interest rates adds pressure to SPY's bullish outlook. Seasonal Trends: Historical December pullbacks in risk assets during rate-hike cycles favor bearish scenarios. Market Sentiment: Investor sentiment remains cautious, with increasing volatility indicating indecision in the broader market. 📈 Trade Plan: Short Entry: Wait for price action to retrace into the short zone ($598.33–$599.23). Risk-Reward: Targeting a 3:1 risk-reward ratio with both short-term and extended profit targets. Caution: Monitor fundamental announcements such as labor market data or Federal Reserve statements, as these could drive volatility and invalidate the setup. 📌 Final Thoughts: SPY offers a clean technical setup supported by a bearish macro narrative. This trade allows for tight risk management while capturing a potential extended downside move. Let me know your thoughts or if you'd trade this setup differently! 🚨📉

SPY 15m Analysis: FVGs and Key Levels for Next MovesOverview This idea focuses on the SPY 15-minute chart, highlighting key fair value gaps (FVGs) and critical support/resistance levels. The current price action shows potential for both bullish and bearish scenarios, contingent on price reactions at crucial levels. Bearish Scenario Key Level to Watch: If SPY closes below 566.44, it signals further downside momentum. Traders should look for the formation of the next Bearish FVG to initiate short positions. Projected Target: First Target: 550–555 zone (likely demand zone or support area). Downward momentum is supported by the recent sharp sell-off, indicating heavy selling pressure. Invalidation: A sustained move back above 588.85 will weaken bearish momentum. Bullish Scenario Key Level to Watch: For any upward momentum, a Bullish FVG must form above the current price, likely in the 588.85–595.79 range. Projected Target: First Target: 595.79 Second Target: 600+, where stronger resistance may emerge. Invalidation: Failure to hold above 588.85 could result in further selling pressure. Volume and Momentum Considerations While individual candlestick volume isn't displayed, the rapid decline hints at increased selling pressure. Monitor volume closely during retests for confirmation of strength or weakness in price action. Plan Your Trade: Use clear invalidation levels to manage risk. Wait for price confirmation (e.g., closing below 566.44 or a bullish FVG forming above 588.85). Utilize stop-loss orders to safeguard against unexpected reversals. Conclusion This setup allows for flexibility, focusing on key zones and volume confirmation. The bias leans bearish, but a bullish retracement cannot be ruled out if price action shifts momentum. Keep an eye on FVG formations for entry signals.

AMEX:SPY "Today's market bias is to open with a short outlook. If bearish Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) start to form and price respects them, I’ll look to enter short positions targeting lower levels. However, if price bounces off these zones and a bullish FVG forms, I will shift focus to initiate long positions on the first bullish FVG that sets up cleanly. Watching for clear confirmations and respecting key price action levels will be critical. Let’s stay adaptive to what the market gives us!"
