After testing $4,900 yesterday, the SPX retreated slightly lower. Currently, it trades near $4,870, and we keep monitoring the resistance at $4,900 and support at $4,800. We are also paying close attention to the RSI, which broke above 70 points on the daily graph; the invalidation of the breakout will raise a slight concern, and the same will apply to the spike...
S&P500 may be overbought on the 4H timeframe (RSI = 72.835, MACD = 15.590, ADX = 49.520) but not yet on the 1D technical outlook as the price hasn't yet made a HH on the two month Channel Up. The 4H RSI does show us though that it is starting that HH peak sequence as it can start a LH trendline like December 14th. We are expecting this wave to peak on a +5.55%...
S&P500 has turned neutral on the 1D technica outlook (RSI = 47.788, MACD = 28.200, ADX = 43.854) as it made a LL for the first time since the October 27th 2023 bottom, marking the end of that two month rally. That was the latest bullish wave of the 15 month Channel Up. According to the three prior peaks that formed HH on the Channel Up, the index should kickstart...
If you've been following my ideas over the last few weeks, you'll know that I have a macro bearish view going into next year. I think the market is setup to drop 30-40%+. I know everyone is calling for new highs (Tom Lee, looking at you), but it's not going to happen IMO. We're not in a bull market, this is still just a bullish bounce within a bear trend. I'm...
Recently, we discussed how overbought conditions in the stock market were making a case for correction. Now, with the major market indices retreating slightly lower, we are looking for more clues about where the market might be headed next. To support a thesis about the SPX going lower, we would like to see RSI, MACD, and Stochastic continue declining on the daily...
S&P500 crossed and closed a (4h) candle today under the MA50 (4h) for the first time since December 7th. Even though that was a buy opportunity then, this time we expect strong selling as the two month Channel Up is on a very strong RSI (4h) Bearish Divergence. Trading Plan: 1. Sell once the price crosses under the Channel Up. Targets: 1. 4560 (MA50 1d and...
The S&P500 index (SPX) almost hit the 4820 All Time High (ATH) level on the last trading session of 2023. That day completed the 9th straight green weekly (1W) candle, a feat last seen on the week of February 19 2019. This doesn't necessarily indicate that any sort of correction is due as a bullish market can run rallies fueled on fundamental news for even longer...
S&P500 / US500 has almost completed a +17.30% rise, which is the prince range it grew by on the December 1st 2022 High. That was the first High of the long term Channel Up pattern that started on the October 13th 2022 bottom. The Channel Up still has a little more room to go upwards before reaching its top but since the price is already over the 0.786 Fibonacci...
The S&P500 index is now on a healthy green 1D technical outlook (RSI = 65.835, MACD = 82.010, ADX = 81.214) following a much needed technical pullback yesterday that eased the previously overbought technical indicators. On the 4H timeframe, the index is still inside a two month Channel Up, which found support yesterday on the 4H MA50. As long as it holds, we will...
The S&P500 / US500 is trading inside November's Channel Up, with the price turning sideways after nearly hitting its top. This is a comfortable bullish trade over the 4hour MA50 and looks very much like the November 5th-9th consolidation. As long as the 4hour MA50 supports, buy and target 4850 (top of the Channel Up). If it breaks, sell and target 4550 (bottom...
S&P500 is trading inside a 1 year Channel Up with the price reaching today the 0.786 Fibonacci level, following the Fed rate hike. Following the Bearish Megaphone that initiated November's rally, the can see that the last time such pattern started a rally, it peaked on the 0.786 Fibonacci (Dec 01 2022) before pulling back to the 0.236 level. Trading Plan: 1. Sell...
S&P500 is trading inside an Ascending Triangle pattern with the price over the July 27th Top (R1) and bullish on the 4H technical outlook (RSI = 63.128MACD = 5.390, ADX = 23.122). Until the HH and more importantly the R2 level break, we will be bearish, targeting the S1 (TP = 4,550). Below the S1, the 4H MA200 is the target (TP = 4,480). If the price crosses over...
S&P500 is overbought on its 1D technical outlook (RSI = 72.156, MACD = 58.110, ADX = 59.863), a logical outcome considering the aggressive nature of November's rally. This rally is the HL rebound on the bottom of the 1 year Channel Up and is more effectively understood with the help of the Fibonacci levels and ranges. The price has been trading all week inside...
The S&P500 has been rising non-stop since the October 27th Low when the Bearish Megaphone bottomed and the long term Channel Up started the new Higher High leg. The rally crossed over the top of the Bearish Megaphone and has already reached the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement level of the Channel Up. The same sequence can bee seen at the end of last year (September -...
Aiming for that 4700 target. Options have expired, JPM Caller is out of the way and SPX is slowly going the steps up to reach 4700. Xmas rally and the entire 2024 probably will look very nice and pushy.
The S&P500 index / US500 has been on the strongest 2 week rise since October 2022, which was at the very start of the Fibonacci Channel Up you see on this chart. The index has established the 1day MA50 as the new long term Support and may test it soon if we expect it follow a similar course as the October-November 2022 rally, which made a short term pull back...
Against our expectations, the rollover in the Chinese stock market has not materialized, and the SPX broke above the downward-sloping channel. Currently, the SPX trades near the $4,500 price tag. In the following days, we will pay close attention to whether it will manage to hold above the upper bound of the channel. If it fails, it will raise our suspicion over...
The S&P500 index / US500 broke and closed over the 1day MA50 on Friday, for the first time in almost 2 months. Even though it is a major long term bullish development, we see a short term sell opportunity as the 1day RSI is reversing, signalling a loss of strength on the 5 day rally. The long term pattern remains a Bearish Megaphone, so such minor technical...
