SPY Mid Week Update (Jan 22–23)SPY Mid Week Update Technical Look: Price opened the week with a strong breakdown, exactly as outlined in my Sunday Weekly Outlook. After the initial move we saw a retest followed by continuation into the bearish target (please refer to the linked idea). Then before the market close, Trump’s tariff cancellation comments shifted sentiment and the structure flipped back to a bullish setup. Bullish Scenario (Active): With Wednesday’s close, SPY has fully transitioned back into a bullish structure. A decisive move above 686 would likely trigger a strong upside expansion. My upside targets are: 696.25 – 700 A strong break below 679.5 would invalidate the bullish scenario. Bearish Scenario (Unlikely): If price breaks decisively below 679.5, I would consider the bullish scenario canceled and activate the bearish scenario. In that case, I would expect price to continue lower and put positions could be considered on a retest near the 679 area. This scenario would likely require a major narrative shift, such as Trump reintroducing EU tariffs. Without such a catalyst, the bullish scenario remains in play. The primary bearish target in this scenario would be 671.25. I share deeper US Market breakdowns and weekly scenario updates on Substack. Link is in my profile.

QQQ Mid Week Update (22-23 JAN)QQQ Mid Week Update Technical Look: Price opened with a strong breakdown, exactly as I expected in my Weekly Outlook from Sunday. After the initial move, we got a retest, and price continued lower into the bearish target. (Checked the linked idea.) Then before the market close, Trump’s tariff cancellation comments shifted sentiment, and the structure flipped back to a bullish setup. With Wednesday’s close, QQQ has fully transitioned into a bullish structure. Price action confirms that the bullish scenario is currently active and in control. As long as there is no major sentiment shift (such as a cancellation of the Greenland deal), I expect the market to maintain its bullish structure. Given the current momentum, price may reach upper targets relatively quickly. Bullish Scenario (Active): As long as the bullish structure remains intact, I expect price to continue higher. Upside targets: Target 1: 630 Target 2: 637 If price breaks the 610 level aggressively due to a sentiment shift, this bullish idea would be considered invalidated. Bearish Scenario (Unlikely): A bearish scenario would come into play only if Trump reintroduces EU tariff rhetoric and signals that the Greenland deal has been canceled. In that case, a decisive break below 610 would open the door for put positions, and a downside continuation could follow. The first downside target in this scenario would be 600.

$TSLA Earnings Surprise? Sub $400 perhapsWell... Hope everyone has been good since I've last seen everyone. I'm doing alright, thanks for asking. Had my first profitable year trading options and it feels fantastic. With that said, lets start the new year with a bang! I've got this bar pattern here, a direct bearish match. Invalidation with a close above the gap at $475. Any close below the gap fill will be considered bearish into Earnings where the pattern matches up for a mean drop sub $400 by the end of the first week of February. I'll be looking forward to catching this $70 move if possible.

Tears of Liberty. Lets Make America Sell Again.Over the past decade, the U.S. stock market has significantly outperformed global stock markets excluding the United States. This divergence in returns has been one of the defining features of global investing since 2015, with U.S. equities—especially large-cap technology stocks—driving much of the outperformance. Annualized Returns (2015–2025) AMEX:SPY , S&P 500 Index(U.S.): The S&P 500 delivered an average annualized return of 13.8% over the past ten years. NASDAQ:ACWX , MSCI All World ex U.S. (Rest of World): Global stocks outside the U.S. returned an average of 4.9% annually over the same period Year-by-Year Breakdown Year | SPX | World ex U.S. | U.S. Surplus 2024 23.9% 4.7% +19.2% 2023 23.8% 17.9% +5.8% 2022 -19.6% -14.3% -5.4% (!) 2021 26.6% 12.6% +14.0% 2020 15.8% 7.6% +8.2% 2019 30.4% 22.5% +7.9% 2018 -6.6% -14.1% +7.5% 2017 18.7% 24.2% -5.5% (!) 2016 9.8% 2.7% +7.1% 2015 -0.7% -3.0% +2.3% Key Drivers of Performance U.S. Outperformance The U.S. market’s dominance was driven largely by the rapid growth of technology giants (such as Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, and Alphabet), which benefited from strong earnings growth, global market reach, and significant investor inflows. International Underperformance Non-U.S. markets faced headwinds such as multiply choking sanctions and tariffs, slower economic growth, political uncertainty (notably in Europe), a stronger U.S. dollar, and less exposure to high-growth technology sectors. Valuation Gap By 2025, U.S. stocks are considered relatively expensive compared to their international counterparts, which may offer more attractive valuations going forward. Recent Shifts (2025 Trend): As of early 2025, international stocks have started to outperform the S&P 500, with European and Asian equities seeing renewed investor interest. Factors include optimism over economic recovery in China and strong performance in European defense and technology sectors. Long-Term Perspective Historical Context While the past decade favored U.S. equities, this has not always been the case. For example, during the 2000s, international stocks outperformed the U.S. following the dot-com bust. Market Weight The U.S. accounts for roughly 60% of global stock market capitalization and about 25% of global GDP, so its performance has a substantial impact on global indices. Conclusion From 2015 to 2025, the U.S. stock market delivered nearly triple the annualized returns of global markets excluding the U.S., primarily due to the outperformance of large-cap technology stocks. While this trend has persisted for most of the decade, early 2025 shows signs of a potential shift, with international equities beginning to close the performance gap. Investors should remain aware of valuation differences and the cyclical nature of global market leadership. The main technical chart for U.S./ ex U.S. ratio indicates the epic reversal is in progress.

The Gold/SPX Breakout Narrative Is a TrapSaw the GOLD / SP:SPX chart with people calling a breakout. Not buying it. Until this W candle actually confirms, there is no breakout. For me, this is the top in gold or at least very close. We’re talking days, not weeks. The real trap? People trying to time the perfect short on $XAU. That won’t work either. Gold won’t just roll over and die. It’ll chop, frustrate, and punish anyone trying to front-run the move. Longs get tired. Shorts get squeezed. Everyone loses patience. And while that’s happening, something bigger is unfolding. The rotation from GOLD into CRYPTOCAP:BTC and risk assets is already in motion. It’s one of those transitions that’ll be studied in history books. No indicators. No opinions. Nothing can stop it.

2026 Price Target for SPY: $790 – Why the S&P 500 Could Soar 15%If you haven`t bought the dip on SPY last year: Why my Price Target is $790 for SPY? Key Drivers for 2026! Earnings Growth Acceleration: Analysts expect S&P 500 EPS to grow 12–15% in 2026 (Goldman Sachs: 12%; FactSet consensus: ~14.9%). This builds on the AI-driven productivity boom and resilient consumer spending. If AI adoption accelerates (as seen in Meta, Nvidia, and Microsoft earnings), we could see 15–18% EPS growth—pushing multiples higher in a low-rate environment. Fed Policy Tailwinds: With inflation cooling (core PCE at ~2.8% in November, in line with expectations) and the economy strong (Q3 2025 GDP revised to +4.4%), the Fed is likely to deliver 1–2 more rate cuts in 2026. Lower rates support valuations and boost corporate borrowing/profits—classic bull-market fuel. Geopolitical & Policy Clarity: Trump's recent backtrack on aggressive tariffs (U-turn on 10–25% threats to NATO allies and Greenland deal) has eased fears. Combined with potential fiscal stimulus and deregulation, this creates a pro-growth backdrop. Midterm elections could add volatility, but history shows markets often "pump" post-election. Valuation Expansion Potential: The forward P/E is ~22x—elevated but justified by AI productivity gains. If earnings beat expectations and rates fall, multiples could stretch to 24–25x (similar to past tech-led cycles), supporting my higher target. Comparison to Wall Street ConsensusWall Street targets for the S&P 500 end-2026 range widely: Conservative: Bank of America ~7,100 (3–4% upside) Average: ~7,269–7,600 (6–11% upside) Bullish: Oppenheimer 8,100; Deutsche Bank 8,000; Goldman Sachs ~12% total return My $790 SPY target sits on the bullish side (~15% upside), assuming stronger-than-expected earnings and policy support. It's not moonshot territory (some outliers see 8,000+), but it requires the rally to broaden beyond Big Tech. Risks to Watch: Tariff resurgence or trade wars could cap gains. Inflation reacceleration might delay Fed cuts. AI spending disappointment → valuation compression. Volatility spikes around elections or macro data. Still, the base case remains bullish: resilient economy, AI tailwinds, and supportive policy. SPY at $790 would mark another strong year in this bull run.

S&P 500: Ascending Trend Broken - Are Bears Taking Control?S&P 500: Ascending Trend Broken - Are Bears Taking Control? The uptrend that has been in place since April 2025 has been broken with a gap! The S&P 500 index is at a critical turning point. So, are bears really gaining strength? Let's answer this question with 3 key technical indicators: 1️⃣ Trend Break and Retest Phase The ascending trendline valid since April 2025 has been broken with a gap. Currently, a retest of the breakdown is taking place. 2️⃣ Weakening Momentum There is a noticeable decrease in buying power. Bulls are losing control. Volume/momentum indicators show an active "Bearish" signal. 3️⃣ SMA50 Being Tested for the Third Time SMA50 has been challenged 3 times in the last 2 months. Support strength weakens with each test. Short-term trend support is in danger. 📊 Critical Levels 🟢 Support Levels: 6,860 - FRVP POC (critical pivot) 6,836 - SMA50 (most critical support) 6,723 - SMA111 (medium-term support) 6,496 - Fibonacci 0.236 level 🔴 Resistance Level: 6,985 - Fibonacci level 💡 Scenarios Bearish Scenario (High Probability): If SMA50 breaks → 6,723 and then 6,496 levels could be tested. Deepening selling pressure may be expected after gap-filling movement. Bullish Scenario: Breaking above 6,985 resistance → Trend breakdown becomes invalid. In this case, new target: 7,000+ levels ⚠️ This Week is Critical! BoJ Interest Rate Decision (Tomorrow) The Bank of Japan's decision could create volatility in the markets. The most critical weekly close of the year is approaching. In case of SMA50 loss, the selling wave could deepen. 📌 Conclusion Technical data points to a bearish trend. Especially the confirmation of the trend break, momentum loss, and the risk of SMA50 breaking. When these factors combine, it's important to be cautious in the short term and focus on risk management. Tomorrow's BoJ decision and the weekly close will set the direction for the coming weeks. Key level to watch: SMA50 level (6,836) Thank you for reading.

ES (SPX, SPY) Analysis, Key Levels, Setups for Thur, Jan 22 GREENLAND CRISIS DE-ESCALATION Trump announced "framework of a future deal" with NATO on Greenland/Arctic security. Feb 1 tariffs on 8 European nations CANCELLED. Market rallied immediately on de-escalation - tension that caused Tuesday's -1.3% selloff now reversing. NATO Secretary General Rutte confirmed deal focused on "Arctic security through collective efforts." Denmark welcomed the news, calling it "ending on a better note." UKRAINE PEACE PROGRESS US Envoy Witkoff: "We've got it down to ONE issue... I'm actually optimistic." Trump-Zelenskyy meeting TODAY in Davos (7:00 AM ET / 1:00 PM local). Witkoff & Kushner heading to Moscow to meet Putin (around 11:00 AM-12:00 PM ET). Trump floated "tariff-free zone" for Ukraine post-war reconstruction. Major diplomatic progress could spark additional risk appetite. FED INDEPENDENCE PRESERVED Supreme Court SKEPTICAL of Trump's attempt to fire Fed Governor Lisa Cook. Justice Kavanaugh: Trump's position "would weaken, if not shatter, Fed independence." Bipartisan pushback from conservative AND liberal justices. Market participants already adjusting Fed outlook - reduced betting odds of Cook removal. This removes a significant tail risk for monetary policy uncertainty. Court expected to rule by June 2026. AI/TECH MOMENTUM Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang: AI revolution "would require trillions of dollars." Global chip stocks performing strongly in premarket. Nasdaq 100 futures +0.8% overnight. AI infrastructure plays leading the rally. WHITE HOUSE ECONOMIC OPTIMISM WH Sr. Adviser Hassett: "We might get two quarters in a row above 5%" Hassett: "Recent inflation data may have been very promising" BEARISH CATALYSTS / RISKS ------------------------- 1. PCE INFLATION DATA (10:00 AM ET) - CRITICAL EVENT Combined October & November release (unusual - due to prior government shutdown). Consensus: 2.8% YoY for both headline and core. Credit Agricole expects 2.9% YoY (above consensus) which could pare back Fed cut expectations. HOT print = hawkish repricing, potential selloff. COOL print = further rally fuel. 2. GEOPOLITICAL UNCERTAINTY REMAINS Greenland deal is "framework" only - no concrete details yet. Denmark still says Greenland "not for sale" - fundamental disagreement persists. Ukraine talks down to "one issue" but resolution not guaranteed. Putin-related meetings later today could introduce volatility. 3. EXTENDED RALLY CONCERNS Small caps outperforming S&P 500 for 13 straight sessions. S&P has yet to fully recover weekly loss. Gold on track for greatest weekly gain since October (flight to safety signal). Bitcoin below $90K showing crypto weakness.

Position Size: Standard - conditions favor continuation but event risk elevated 2. Max Loss: 10 points per scalp, 25 points per swing position 3. Avoid: Mid-range entries between 6,925-6,950 (no edge zone) 4. Headlines: Greenland/Ukraine headlines can cause instant 10-20 pt swings - use wider stops or reduce size 5. PCE Reaction: Don't fight the initial move; wait for exhaustion signals SUMMARY & FORECAST ================== NEAR-TERM (Today): Bullish bias with 65% probability of testing 6,955-6,990 if PCE comes inline or cool. 35% chance of pullback to 6,830-6,865 on hot inflation print. WEEKLY OUTLOOK: Continuation of recovery rally targeting PQH at 6,988. Break above opens door to 7,050-7,080 (1.272 extension). Failure to hold 6,820 shifts bias back to neutral with potential retest of 6,780-6,800. KEY LEVELS TO WATCH: Bullish above: 6,905 Bearish below: 6,820 Breakout trigger: 6,920+ Target zone: 6,955-7,000

Miss the latest TACO trade? Gold hit a fresh record above $4,800 on Wednesday as investors moved into safe havens amid fresh tariff threats from the White House. That move is now unwinding. In a social media post, President Donald Trump said he no longer plans to impose tariffs on European countries that opposed his ambitions for the US to acquire Greenland. He wrote: “I will not be imposing the Tariffs that were scheduled to go into effect on February 1st.” US equities rallied on the shift. The Dow jumped 588.64 points, while the SP500 rose 1.16% and the Nasdaq gained 1.18%. Gold gave back earlier gains. While gold remains historically high, the removal of the February 1st tariff deadline has punctured the immediate US risk premium.

SPY Weekly Outlook – Week 3 of 2026 (Jan 19–23)SPY Weekly Outlook – Week 3 of 2026 (Jan 19–23) Technical Look: As expected last week, price found support at the 687.5 level and continued its upside move. We discussed that if SPY failed to push toward 700 on Monday’s open, a post CPI pullback toward 687.5 could occur. That scenario played out precisely on Wednesday, with price retracing into the 687.5 zone and finding support there. As I mentioned in my Wednesday Mid Week Update, this reaction marked a shift back to a bullish structure, with upside targets at 691.75 – 694 – 695.25. I also stated that I would exit all call positions at 695.25, and price reached that level exactly before getting rejected. (Please refer to the linked idea for visual reference.) Scenarios – Prediction: At this point, I am tracking two possible scenarios for SPY. Scenario 1: Bearish Scenario (Higher Probability) This is currently the more likely scenario, mainly due to the macro backdrop, including Trump–EU tensions and potential EU tariffs related to Greenland. I believe price may open the week with a sharp downside move. My bearish targets are: 686 – 679.75 – 669.5 If price breaks 686 aggressively and closes a 4H candle below it, I would expect a move toward 679.75. Similarly, if 679.75 is broken decisively and holds below, price could extend toward 669.5. Each of these bearish targets also represents a potential bounce or reversal zone, so I prefer taking partial profits (around 1/3) at each level. If price breaks 686 decisively, I would look to engage on the short side using put options. Scenario 2: Bullish Scenario This scenario becomes valid only if Trump EU tensions ease before the market opens (with Monday being a holiday and trading resuming on Tuesday). The 695 level acts as a call wall in options positioning for SPY. If price breaks above 695 aggressively, I would look to buy calls on a retracement, targeting a move toward the 700 area. Position Management Notes: I manage risk by scaling out of positions at key reaction levels and adjusting exposure as structure confirms. Partial profit-taking at major levels is a core part of my approach. I share deeper US Market breakdowns and weekly scenario updates on Substack. Link is in my profile.

SPY & Macro HistoricalToday FED ended QN (Quantitative Normalizing NOT "T" = tightening. 1st, you normalize, then you tighten. Right??) The Fed is continuing to let mortgage-backed securities roll off its balance sheet, while the U.S. Treasury increases T-bill issuance (cash-like instruments). That combination means more gov securities are hitting the market even as the Fed’s balance sheet stays roughly unchanged. More Treasury supply + no Fed buying = higher yields and tighter liquidity. More MBS roll-off = higher mortgage rates and pressure on housing. Treasury bills soak up cash, while longer bonds suffer. 🔥 REALMACRO summary: The Fed is doing this to: Get out of the mortgage market. Strengthen the Treasury bill market (the foundation of dollar liquidity). Keep bank reserves “ample” without restarting QE. This combo lets them tighten just enough to cool asset prices, without breaking the plumbing again like in 2019. The success of this experiment will largely determine how long the Fed can avoid returning to QE. If liquidity tightens too far as the economy continues to weaken, they’ll be forced back into some form of balance sheet expansion sooner rather than later. Lastly, let's check how right I was when I posted "MMT Everything." As of April 2020, US debt was $ 24T. Today, it is $38T, representing a total increase of $14T in 5 years. ✅ CAGR ≈ 9.6% per year ✅ S&P 500 CAGR (Apr 2020 → Today): ~18.6% per year Both are completely unsustainable growth rates. I nailed that back in April 2020. Trump & MMT "print and play" will be the death of us! SIGH! Lastly, the DOGE gimmick was a complete and total failure as expected. No reduction in deficit and no fraud found. Imagine that! As I keep saying, " NEVER INVEST IN TOXIC PEOPLE! THEY WILL ALWAYS BURN YOU IN THE END!" It's not political it's a FACT!

ES (SPX, SPY) Analysis, Key Zones, Setups for Wed, Jan 21 Today was the worst session since April - S&P 500 dropped 2.1%, wiping out 2026 gains. The catalyst? Trump's Greenland tariff escalation ahead of Davos. 10% tariffs on 8 EU countries starting Feb 1, rising to 25% by June 1. Supreme Court declined to rule on tariff authority today, extending uncertainty at least another month. Critical Event Tomorrow: Trump's Special Address at Davos runs 8:30-9:15 AM ET - directly overlapping cash open. This is the primary catalyst. Any headline could swing markets 50+ points. ECONOMIC CALENDAR - JAN 21 - 8:30 AM ET: Housing Starts & Building Permits - 8:30-9:15 AM ET: TRUMP DAVOS SPEECH - 10:00 AM: Pending Home Sales Housing data releases simultaneously with Trump's speech - expect it to be overshadowed entirely. TECHNICAL STRUCTURE Daily: Price at 6,848.50 holding above 1.618 fib (6,834.50). Premium-to-discount transition in progress after rejection at HH near 7,040. 4H: CHoCH+ triggered at 6,923 confirming bearish shift. Price trading in discount below Equilibrium (6,923.25). Key fibs: 1.272 (6,873.50) | 1.618 (6,834.50) | 2.0 (6,791.25). PWL at ~6,923.25. 1H: Clear LH → LL sequence. PWH at 7,020 (premium trap). BOS confirmed. PML at 6,764.75. KEY ZONES RESISTANCE (Shorts): - 6,865-6,875: VWAP + 1.272 Fib - first rejection zone - 6,896-6,905: NYAM.H (6,904.75) + Asian resistance - 6,920-6,935: CHoCH+ origin + Equilibrium - strong supply - 6,960-6,975: Major liquidity wall (Davos relief rally target) SUPPORT (Longs): - 6,834-6,843: 1.618 Fib + AS.H - first bounce zone - 6,815-6,822: NYPM.L (6,822.25) + 1.272 extension - 6,791-6,800: 2.0 Fib - psychological confluence - 6,764-6,780: PML (6,764.75) - STRONG BID expected SCENARIOS BEARISH CONTINUATION (60%) Trump hardlines, no diplomatic progress, EU threatens retaliation. - Break below 6,834 → 6,791 → 6,764 RELIEF BOUNCE (30%) "Constructive dialogue" headlines, Feb 1 deadline pushed. - Squeeze to 6,905-6,920, potential 6,960 extension CHOP (10%) Markets await clarity, range 6,820-6,880. TRADE SETUPS SHORT @ Premium Rejection - Entry: 6,896-6,920 - Stop: 6,940 - T1: 6,865 (31-55 pts) - T2: 6,834 (62-86 pts) - T3: 6,791 (105-129 pts) - Confirmation: CVD divergence, absorption failure LONG @ Discount - Entry: 6,791-6,800 - Stop: 6,764 - T1: 6,834 (34-43 pts) - T2: 6,865 (65-74 pts) - Confirmation: CVD divergence, institutional absorption RISK NOTES 1. Headline risk EXTREME - size 50-75% of normal 2. Cash open = speech overlap (8:30-9:15 ET) 3. Watch EUR/USD as leading indicator 4. VIX elevated - mean reversion could fuel squeeze WATCHLIST - NFLX: Beat earnings, pausing buybacks for Warner deal - 10Y: 4.29% - above 4.35% = pressure, below 4.20% = relief - Gold: $4,700+ record - risk-off barometer - Bitcoin: Cracked $90K Bearish bias with headline optionality. Structure says lower but Davos = binary risk. Focus 6,920 resistance for shorts, 6,791-6,800 for longs. Let order flow confirm. NOT a session to overtrade. Good Luck !!!

$SPY the final leg higher, then 20%+ correctionI know there are a lot of people calling for a crash right here, and while I do think we end up getting one, I think there's one last move higher above $700 first. I think we need to squeeze out the shorts and convince everyone the next leg is starting before we see a move down. I do think after we hit and reject one of the upper resistances, that it will set up a great short opportunity. The trigger for the short will be UVIX to hit it's lower support levels combined with SPY hitting it's upper resistances. Don't know what will cause the move, but I think it'll likely happen even faster than the April move. So be prepared to exit as we approach the highs or set tight stop losses.
