SPX futures - be careful of a bear trap today

4 hr rsi is on the floor again which is suspicious to me. We are still above the 18ma daily and 18ma weekly - both indicate a bullish bias and both are near the 3920 area.
A small pullback this morning/today to those MA's may get bought in anticipation of Powell's speech tomorrow - or in reaction to it.

Index put/call is slightly elevated. ycharts.com/indicato...e_spx_put_call_ratio

Good luck!

getting close to daily 18ma

Comment:

weekly MA is at 3910 area

Comment:

If C = 1 target should be near 3900 area (spike through the 18ma), but .786 is also a possibility for a truncation of C. Watch for any reactions in this area.

Comment:

on previous chart, the 2 hr rsi is showing both hidden and regular bullish divergences.

QQQ has reached it's 18ma on daily

Comment:

Both DJT and IWM showing relative strength today

Comment:

Nothing saying this can't go lower - it can for sure get down to 3900 area, and might end up there at the end of the day - but the technicals are telling me this is corrective. I'll be out for a few hours, If they get over this mornings highs, the Bulls have taken control.

Comment:

it looks like a wedge right now but that can get invalidated overnight, a break above 3970 is a safer entry

Comment:

spinning top candle on spy - A spinning top that occurs at the top of an uptrend could be a sign that bulls are losing their control and the trend may reverse. Similarly, a spinning top at the bottom of a downtrend could signal that bears are losing control and bulls may take the reins.
