IWM trade ideas

The Ghost of 1986-1987 Stock Market Overlay onto $IWMThe 1986-1987 stock market advance was 48% as measured by the S&P500 Index SP:SPX from the low in late 1986 which peaked in August 1987 and crashed into October 19th's spectacular 20% decline in one day. The advance in the Russell 2000 Index from the low in 2023 to the high in 2024 was 51%, topping the 48% gain in the SP:SPX and the meltdown wasn't as spectacular, but it was similar. There were similar patterns in fears of trade wars, US dollar declines, new tax laws going into effect back then and tax laws sunsetting this time. Those you can go into by reviewing my other charts I have published over the years here. I stretched the 1987 pattern to fit the low to the high, so it isn't "exactly" the same time day-to-day for this pattern. I found it interesting because the chart of AMEX:IWM all by itself had the same "look" to me as the 1987 bull market and crash so I decided to put it together for you all here to see. I would expect a choppy market from here on as people adjust to the new uncertainties. Sellers of this decline will be shy to reinvest anytime soon and buyers are likely afraid to step up and get aggressive with so much uncertainty. Sentiment as measured by AAII shows an extremely fearful and reluctant investor class, which is typical to see at major market bottoms. Wishing everyone peace and prosperity!

IWM Stock Chart Fibonacci Analysis 080125Trading Idea 1) Find a FIBO slingshot 2) Check FIBO 61.80% level 3) Entry Point > 214/61.80% Chart time frame:B A) 15 min(1W-3M) B) 1 hr(3M-6M) C) 4 hr(6M-1year) D) 1 day(1-3years) Stock progress:C A) Keep rising over 61.80% resistance B) 61.80% resistance C) 61.80% support D) Hit the bottom E) Hit the top Stocks rise as they rise from support and fall from resistance. Our goal is to find a low support point and enter. It can be referred to as buying at the pullback point. The pullback point can be found with a Fibonacci extension of 61.80%. This is a step to find entry level. 1) Find a triangle (Fibonacci Speed Fan Line) that connects the high (resistance) and low (support) points of the stock in progress, where it is continuously expressed as a Slingshot, 2) and create a Fibonacci extension level for the first rising wave from the start point of slingshot pattern. When the current price goes over 61.80% level , that can be a good entry point, especially if the SMA 100 and 200 curves are gathered together at 61.80%, it is a very good entry point. As a great help, tradingview provides these Fibonacci speed fan lines and extension levels with ease. So if you use the Fibonacci fan line, the extension level, and the SMA 100/200 curve well, you can find an entry point for the stock market. At least you have to enter at this low point to avoid trading failure, and if you are skilled at entering this low point, with fibonacci6180 technique, your reading skill to chart will be greatly improved. If you want to do day trading, please set the time frame to 5 minutes or 15 minutes, and you will see many of the low point of rising stocks. If want to prefer long term range trading, you can set the time frame to 1 hr or 1 day.

IWM Short1. Broader Market Structure 📉 1.1 Change of Character (CHoCH) Occurred near the top (~226.70), breaking the prior higher low—signaling a shift from bullish to bearish momentum. 1.2 Break of Structure (BOS) Confirmed by a move below that level, validating the bearish change and underlining a downtrend in progress. 2. Supply & Demand Zones 2.1 Demand Zones (Support) Price zones where buyers have previously stepped in, marking potential reversal points: Zone A (~223.00–223.50) – First layer of support; price tested this zone after the BOS. Zone B (~221.80–222.20) – Mid-range demand area with historical buyer activity. Zone C (~220.00–220.50) – Deeper support zone; last line before structural lows. Key Takeaway: These zones represent probable stops for a short-term pullback and are ideal for long-entry decisions. 2.2 Supply Zone (Resistance) ~226.70–226.75 – Located at the level where BOS occurred; acts as near-term resistance where sellers may reassert control. 3. Price Action Inside the Bordered Area Current Price (~224.55): Hovering between the supply and first demand zone. Expected Movement: A pullback into Zone A (~223.00–223.50). If demand holds, look for a bullish reaction—forming a higher low, potentially pushing price back toward 226.70+. Bearish Risk: A break below Zone A increases downside risk into Zone B or C, reinforcing the bearish structure. 4. Momentum & Structure Outlook Bullish Scenario: A bounce from demand with structure preserved (~higher low) could lead to short-term upside into resistance. Bearish Scenario: A drop below the bordered demand zone would confirm continuation of the downtrend. Watch: Price structure around the 224–223 area and reversal cues (e.g., rejection candles, volume spikes).

IWM projected pathI have three rooms full of supercomputers and then a few laptops in a spare bathroom plus a refrigerator in my wife's cardboard box running simulations 24/7 about the projected path of the Russell. Based on their findings I have determined that our previous support is now the resistance. When we come into contact with this resistance we will begin to work our way back down to fill the gap before continuing up to achieve a new all time high. When we hit resistance I have prophesized that will go mostly sideways for a numbers of days before we drop down to fill the gap. Thank you. Praise the Lord.

$IWM: Quarterly signal and Fundamental CatalystsQuarterly chart signals from time@mode show AMEX:IWM is bullish, with just 10% downside risk and over 34% upside potential into Q3 2028 or sooner. Let's break down the key catalysts for the year ahead: Fed rate cuts are expected to boost small cap stocks by lowering borrowing costs. Small business sentiment is at multi year highs, supporting Russell 2000 earnings growth. Valuations remain attractive: AMEX:IWM trades at a discount to large caps, with room for mean reversion. Sector rotation: Money is flowing into industrials, financials, and cyclicals, core IWM sectors. Risk reward is compelling: Upside vs risk and strong macro and earnings tailwinds make this a high conviction long idea for the next 12 months and beyond. Best of luck! Cheers, Ivan Labrie.
