SPX (S&P 500 Index)
S&P500 Both short and long term bullish targets intact.The S&P500 index (SPX) continues to trade within its 5-month Channel Up and last Friday's pull-back to its 1D MA50 (red trend-line) again is another testament to it as it rebounded exactly on its bottom, making yet another Higher Low.
As we've shown on our previous analysis its short-term Target is the 1.382 Fibonacci extension at 6850. Ahead of a massive 1D MACD Bullish Cross however, we can see (after another short pull-back) the index extending much higher to its 2.5 Fibonacci extension (orange) at 7150 before a larger correction takes place.

ES (SPX, SPY) Analysis, Key Levels, Setups Tue (Oct 21)Market Update for Traders:
Context:
Currently, the price is approaching a key supply zone between 6,765 and 6,795. While we have seen a series of higher highs on the 1-hour chart, the momentum appears to be flattening. Below this supply level, we have identified some significant areas to monitor. The first clean value area on the 1-hour chart is around 6,701 to 6,705, with a visible pullback shelf located between 6,685 and 6,690. There's also a stronger demand zone in the 6,655 to 6,665 range. If we manage to break above the supply cap at 6,795, the next measured extension target is around 6,840, but this should be treated as a stretch unless we see solid acceptance above 6,795.
Key Zones to Watch:
Resistance:
- 6,765–6,795 (this is the current cap)
- Extension potential at 6,840, provided we see firm acceptance above 6,795.
Support:
- Look for the first decision point around 6,725–6,735, which reflects overnight strength.
- 6,701–6,705 is a key equilibrium area.
- The shelf for the first buyable dip lies at 6,685–6,690.
- Further support is found in the demand pocket at 6,655–6,665.
- If we encounter a deeper risk-off scenario, watch for extensions down to 6,604, 6,564, and 6,520, but only if we see a decisive failure in the rebound.
Setups:
Setup 1 — Rejection Short at 6,765–6,795 (A++)
Entry: 6,788–6,793 after a 5m re-close back below 6,795 and a 1m lower-high
Stop (SL): 6,804.50 (above rejection wick/upper edge)
TP1: 6,729–6,733
TP2: 6,701–6,705
TP3: 6,686–6,690
Setup 2 — Acceptance Long above 6,795 (A++)
Entry: 6,796–6,799 on first pullback that holds after decisive 15m acceptance over 6,795
Stop (SL): 6,785.00 (back inside the band)
TP1: 6,822–6,828
TP2: 6,840 stretch
TP3: 6,852–6,855 if squeeze persists
Setup 3 — Quick-Reclaim Long at 6,701 (A+ Bounce)
Entry: 6,702–6,705 only if 6,701 briefly slips and then a 5m candle re-closes back above it
Stop (SL): 6,694.50
TP1: 6,729–6,733
TP2: 6,765–6,775
TP3: 6,788–6,793
Setup 4 — Shelf Long at 6,685–6,690 (A Bounce)
Entry: 6,686–6,689 with a 1m higher-low and 5m hold
Stop (SL): 6,678.00
TP1: 6,701–6,705
TP2: 6,729–6,733
TP3: 6,765–6,775
Setup 5 — Demand-Pocket Long at 6,655–6,665 (A Bounce)
Entry: 6,657–6,663 on stabilization and 1m higher-low
Stop (SL): 6,647.00
TP1: 6,686–6,690
TP2: 6,701–6,705
TP3: 6,729–6,733
Setup 6 — Breakdown Short if 6,701 Turns to Resistance (A+)
Entry: 6,698–6,701 after a 5m close below 6,701 and a retest that fails
Stop (SL): 6,707.50
TP1: 6,686–6,690
TP2: 6,665–6,660
TP3: 6,604–6,564 only if momentum stays risk-off
Management (apply to all)
take the setup only if TP1 ≥ 2.0R using the stated SL. At TP1 close 70% and set the 30% runner to break-even; runner attempts TP2→TP3 if structure supports it. Time-stop 45–60 minutes if neither TP1 nor SL is hit. Primary execution windows: NY AM 09:30–11:00 ET and NY PM 13:30–16:00 ET.

SPX | DAILY ANALYSIS #6Hello and welcome back to DP.
Let’s kick off the weekday together by analyzing the **S&P 500 Index (SPX)**.
🟠 Market Overview
Previous Close: 6692.50
Current Daily Range: 6678.00 – 6705.80
Asia Session High: 6705.80
Asia Session Low: 6678.00
The index has seen significant selling pressure over the past week. She broke below the previous demand zone at 6715–6700, forming a new demand zone between 6680–6665.
This could suggest:
* Sellers are gaining momentum, OR
* Short positions were liquidated to make room for new entries.
🔵 Key Levels to Watch
Resistance Zone (Upside Target):
6711 – A break and hold above this level could lead to a test of 6735 and potentially new highs near 6755.
Support Zone (Blue Box):
6680 – 6665 – This is a critical support zone.
If broken, we may see the index fall toward:
First Support (Yellow Box): 6645
Deeper Support Zone: 6620 – 6605
If the 6680 zone holds and we see bullish confirmation (e.g., strong buying wicks, volume spike, or bullish engulfing candle), buyers may regain control and push the price back up toward the 6710–6730 range.
🧠 Trading Outlook
Bullish Bias Above: 6711
Bearish Bias Below: 6680
Neutral Zone: 6680–6710 (watch for consolidation or fakeouts)
📌 Note: The current structure suggests we are at a decision point. Be patient, wait for confirmation, and manage your risk accordingly.
Take care and have a great trading day!

SPX: Markets have spokenThe previous week continued to be volatile on US equity markets, after the Fridays sell off, two weeks ago. It seems like with all uncertainties coming from the US Government, the market took the time and said: it's enough. This was especially evident on intraday trading, where values of equity indicators were moving from highly negative to highly positive. It seemed like there was no direction in trading. Eventually, the Friday trading session ended up in a positive territory, where the S&P 500 closed the week at 6.664 or 0,5% higher for the day. In order to save the day, the US President commented shortly on Friday on social networks, that 100% tariffs on imports from China is not sustainable. Previously, Fed Chair Powell noted at NABE Conference that further cuts are still an option in the future period, but it will depend on data. At the same time, the US Government continues to be in the state of “shutdown”, not providing any relevant macro data. Both investors and the Fed are currently acting in a sort of blindfolded territory.
Nvidia was especially under pressure during the previous week. The only positive day for the stock was Friday, where the share price increased by 0,78%, but still marking negative territory for the second week in a row. Shares of Apple surged by 1,96% on Friday after the announcement of a contract between Apple and Formula 1 over five-year exclusive U.S. media-rights with Formula 1, starting from 2026, under which Apple TV will become the sole U.S. broadcaster of all F1 races. On the other hand, the semiconductor industry has not experienced such a high volatility. The TSMC delivered a standout performance, topping earnings expectations and raising its guidance, through which the company fuelled investors' confidence.
Without official macro data, the week ahead will be another one which will be guided by fundamentals and/or announcements from the US Administration. It means that markets are going to stay within the “yellow” zone. Analysts are commenting that this zone does not mean that the market will switch to the red zone and significant correction, but only that they are currently highly alerted.
Silver bull will try to throw you off, but long term healthyA pause that could refresh might be warranted in silver and gold.
I am still optimistic for precious metals long term.
Silver is still undervalued based on historical metrics and money supply.
I worry about the rise in metals and what it implies for the broad stock market indices.
ES (SPX, SPY) Analysis Week-Ahead (Oct 20th - 24th)Market Structure Overview
Price has shown a robust rebound from last week's discount levels, now trading back near the 6,720 area following a swift flush and subsequent V-shaped recovery.
Currently, we remain capped under the supply zone between 6,765 and 6,795, which represents the previous swing-high levels. As long as we trade below this resistance, our primary strategy will be to sell into strength and buy on dips within the established range, rather than pursuing breakouts.
On the hourly chart, key equilibrium is noted around the 6,701 to 6,705 range; this serves as the pivotal point around which price action is currently oscillating.
Setups (Level-KZ style)
Reclaim-and-go long (Tier-1 / Tier-2):
Asia/London: hold above 6,701–6,705 after a shallow dip → in NY AM, take the first 5m re-close + 1m HL toward 6,725–6,735.
Scale/target: TP1 6,725–6,735, runners toward 6,765–6,780 if strength persists. Invalidation: 15m body back below 6,701.
Flush-and-reclaim long (Tier-3 bounce):
• Quick sweep into 6,655–6,665 (or even 6,685–6,690) during London → immediate reclaim → first HL entry.
• Targets: back to 6,701 then 6,725–6,735. Invalidation: 15m close back inside/under the swept zone.
Pop-and-fail short (fade):
• Squeeze into 6,725–6,735 that fails to accept (15m rejection back inside) → take the first 5m LH.
• Targets: 6,701 then 6,685–6,690. Invalidation: 15m body acceptance above 6,735.
Stop-run reversal short:
• Spike into 6,765–6,795 (look for wick/absorption) → 15m rejection → 5m LH entry.
• Targets: 6,735 then 6,701. Invalidation: sustained 15m/30m acceptance above 6,795.
Management:
Anchor hard SL to the relevant 15m wick of the trigger ± a small buffer; require TP1 ≥ 2R to the next major level.
At TP1, trim most and put the runner to BE; max 2 attempts per level per session.
Overnight to Tomorrow NY Forecast
Base Case: Anticipate a range build between 6,685 and 6,735 overnight as the market absorbs the recent rebound. During the NY AM session (09:30–11:00 ET), initial attempts may test the 6,725–6,735 resistance before pulling back towards 6,701, potentially moving within the 6,685–6,690 range. Should buyers maintain support at 6,701 on a 15-minute chart, watch for a late-morning rebound back to the 6,725–6,735 zone, with a potential squeeze toward 6,755–6,780 if we see acceptance above 6,735.
The bias shifts to a bullish trend only with clear acceptance above 6,795, which would indicate multiple strong closes in that area, potentially targeting 6,820 and beyond. On the other hand, a decisive move below 6,655 would trigger a downward extension toward 6,604, 6,564, and 6,520.
Execution windows (ET)
• London: 02:00–05:00 — look for the sweep/reclaim plays.
• NY AM (primary): 09:30–11:00 — best momentum/rotation.
• NY PM: 13:30–16:00 — continuation or mean-revert back into the day’s pivot.
What changes the plan
Acceptance above 6,735 early: favor continuation to 6,765–6,780 rather than fading.
Hard failure at 6,701 with sellers defending on 15m: expect a deeper test into 6,685 → 6,655–6,665.
Elevated macro headlines/data at 08:30/10:00 ET windows can temporarily override levels; let the impulse print, then trade the retest.
S&P 500 Bear Market in 2026The Stock market is going to send Crypto into a Bear market in 2026.
It just broke it's weekly cycle count and it's currently painting a bullish divergence. This means only one thing - we are going into a blow-off top within the next 2 months.
We are going to top above 7000 area, and in case we don't have a proper retracement into the Weekly Cycle low within November, we are going to make a blow-off top in December/January.
2026 Year will be profit taking year and the stock market is expected to retrace 20%, while Bitcoin will go down by more than 50%.

Then a drop to the bottom of the narrower channel when China tariffs & rare earth restrictions are reflected in earnings guidance as Mag7 reports Q3 results.
Dead cat bounce into Thanksgiving after the market pullback on guidance.
Then only a Trump tweet can give us a Santa Rally, otherwise the other shoe falls and we get a Black Friday/Monday after Thanksgiving.

US500 (S&P 500) Technical Forecast: At a Critical Crossroad🎯 US500 (S&P 500) Technical Forecast: At a Critical Crossroad
The US500 trades at 6,672.1, testing a major technical confluence. Our analysis points to a tense equilibrium between bulls and bears, with the next directional move set for a significant breakout.
📊 Multi-Timeframe Synthesis & Market Structure
Daily (Trend Bias): The long-term trend remains cautiously bullish above the 6,600 support (50 EMA & prior resistance break). However, price action is compressing, indicating a loss of momentum and a potential coiling for a volatile move.
4H & 1H (Swing Setup): A potential Double Top pattern is forming, with the neckline near 6,640. The 4H RSI shows a pronounced bearish divergence, signaling weakening buying pressure. This is a primary warning for swing traders.
Intraday (15M/5M - Precision): Immediate resistance is firm at 6,690 - 6,700 (psychological level). Support sits at 6,660. A break below 6,660 targets the 6,640 neckline. The 5M Anchored VWAP is capping rallies.
🧠 Key Technical Narratives & Theories
Elliott Wave & Wyckoff: The structure from the last low suggests we may be in a complex Wave 4 correction or the final phase of a Wyckoff distribution (Upthrust After Distribution). A break below 6,640 would confirm this bearish narrative.
Gann & Harmonic Levels: Key Gann support converges with the 0.382 Fibonacci retracement level near 6,620-6,630. This is the next major target if sellers overpower the 6,640 level.
Ichimoku Cloud: On the 4H chart, price is trading within the Kumo (cloud), indicating a loss of trend direction and a battleground between buyers and sellers.
⚖️ Momentum & Volume Assessment
RSI (14): Reading 49 on the 1D, neutral but bearish-diverged on lower timeframes.
Bollinger Bands (20): Price is hugging the middle band, and bands are squeezing, indicating a period of low volatility that often precedes a high-volatility expansion.
Volume & VWAP: Recent attempts to push higher have been on declining volume, a classic sign of a potential bull trap. Anchored VWAP from the recent swing low is now resistance.
🛠️ Trade Plan & Levels
Swing Short Idea: Sell on a confirmed break below 6,640 (close on 1H), targeting 6,620 and then 6,580. Stop loss above 6,710.
Intraday Short Idea: Sell on a break below 6,660 or rejection from 6,690, targeting 6,640. Stop loss above 6,705.
Intraday Long Idea: Only consider buys on a strong break and hold above 6,700 with rising volume, targeting 6,730. Stop loss below 6,680.
💡 The Bottom Line
The US500 is showing cracks in its bullish armor. The burden of proof is on the bulls to reclaim 6,700. Until then, the path of least resistance appears to be lower, with a break of 6,640 likely triggering a deeper pullback. Manage risk carefully in this volatile setup.
Disclaimer: This is technical analysis, not financial advice. Trade at your own risk.
Watch out for 3 drives patternWith the last two retracements to the 0.618 and a perfect touch of the 0.272, we currently have an ideal setup for a potential three drives pattern.
If it hits the final 0.272, it will coincide with CME_MINI:ES1! reaching new all-time highs before reversing for a possible 150-point drop.
Let's see how it evolves.
SPX | Daily Analysis #5Hello and welcome back to DP,
**Yesterday’s Review and News**
In the previous trading day, the market experienced fluctuations of approximately $118. It initially climbed during the Asian and London sessions. However, during the New York session, the market showed significant downward movement, breaking key support levels and trend lines.
Regarding news, the most notable event was the phone call between Trump and Putin, with a scheduled meeting to discuss the Ukraine conflict. The price approached the 6720 level, but sellers prevented the index from reaching and breaking the last pivot point, causing a sharp decline. The price broke through the important candle we mentioned earlier and eventually stopped at 6540.
**1H – 4H Time Frame**
Today, the market showed weakness during the Asian session (breaking the previously mentioned candle) and the early London session. However, by mid-day in London, the price found support and began moving upward. If buyers maintain this support, the price could potentially reach the 6700 level.
**Trade Idea**
At this time, the best strategy is to wait for the price to approach the 6700 area and then consider selling the index to target lower levels.

SPX500 Drops as Regional Banking Worries Shake Wall StreetSPX500 – Overview | Bearish Pressure Below 6,578
U.S. stock futures fell nearly 2% as regional banking concerns resurfaced following disappointing earnings and early signs of credit stress across smaller U.S. lenders.
The selloff reignited fears about credit quality and dragged global markets lower, while traders now shift focus to upcoming earnings from regional banks and American Express for further clues on financial stability.
🕯 Technical Outlook
SPX500 maintains bearish momentum while trading below 6,578, targeting 6,550 → 6,527 → 6,506.
A 1H close above 6,578 would shift sentiment bullish, opening the path toward 6,609 → 6,635 → 6,670.
Pivot: 6,578

🧭 Plan
📈 Bias: Bullish confirmed with 30m LSMA pullback + 0.786 Fibonacci-based MA confluence.
💡 Entry Approach (Thief Layering Strategy™):
Instead of one-shot entry, I place multiple buy-limit layers to average into strength. Example setup:
Buy limit: 6600
Buy limit: 6620
Buy limit: 6640
👉 You can extend or adjust the layering based on your own strategy.
🎯 Stop Loss (SL)
This is my Thief SL @6560.
⚠️ Note to Ladies & Gentlemen (Thief OG’s): This SL is not a recommendation. Use your own judgment — protect your loot at your own risk.
💰 Target (TP)
📌 6750 — sitting at strong resistance + overbought zone + possible bull-trap.
⚠️ Again, OG’s — this is not financial advice. Take profit when it fits your plan. Secure the bag, then enjoy the loot!
🔍 Related Pairs to Watch
Keep an eye on these correlated assets to confirm the SPX500’s move:
NASDAQ:NDX (Nasdaq 100): Tech-heavy index with strong correlation to SPX500. If tech stocks are pumping, it’s a bullish signal for our trade. 📊
TVC:DXY (US Dollar Index): A weaker dollar often boosts equities. Watch for inverse correlation—DXY dropping could mean SPX500 is ready to fly! 🚀
TVC:VIX (Volatility Index): Low VIX levels signal market calm, supporting our bullish setup. A spike in VIX could warn of trouble, so stay sharp! ⚡
Key Correlation Insight: SPX500 often moves in tandem with NASDAQ:NDX due to shared tech giants (think Apple, Microsoft). If NASDAQ:NDX is rallying, it’s a tailwind for our trade. Conversely, a rising TVC:DXY or TVC:VIX could signal caution.

ES (SPX, SPY) Analyses - Key Levels, Setups for Thu (Oct 16)Kill-zones: London 02:00–05:00 · NY AM 09:30–11:00 · NY PM 13:30–16:00
The price is currently capped under yesterday’s VAH/PDH level. Bulls need to maintain levels above that zone to trigger the next upward movement. If we drop below, the previous POC/VAL will likely pull prices back in.
Premise
• Government 08:30 releases are unlikely; headline risk is lighter into the open.
• Primary scheduled risk is Fed Gov. Barr around 09:00 ET.
• Expect a cleaner auction: use our Level-KZ 15m→5m→1m sequence and prioritize first touches.
