SPY Coiling Before the Move – Gamma Walls Set the Stage - Oct3 Intraday Technical Outlook (15m Chart) SPY closed near $669.44, consolidating inside a falling wedge pattern. On the 15-minute chart, price is testing downtrend resistance after holding support earlier in the session: * MACD: Curling back upward from bearish territory, hinting at momentum recovery. * Stoch RSI: Back at extreme overbought, suggesting buyers are active but may face short-term exhaustion. * Key Levels: Support sits at $668–666.7, with further downside pressure toward $663.2. Resistance sits at $670.7–671.0, the wedge top and breakout zone. Intraday takeaway: A breakout above $671 could ignite upside momentum toward $673+. Failure to reclaim $670 risks a fade back toward $666–663. Options Sentiment & GEX Outlook (1H Chart) Options flow shows dealers are heavily positioned around key gamma levels: * Gamma Walls: * $670–673: Major call wall cluster and highest positive GEX — key resistance ceiling. * $668: Gamma pivot level where dealers may defend. * $663–660: Heavy put wall zone that can act as a downside magnet if $668 breaks. * Implications: * Holding above $668 keeps SPY pinned toward the $670–673 gamma wall. * Losing $668 could trigger dealer hedging flows to drag price toward $663–660. * Volatility Context: IVR at 15.7 is very low, while options skew shows 61.7% puts — indicating hedging remains defensive. Cheap premiums may favor straight directional calls/puts instead of spreads. My Thoughts & Recommendation For Oct 3 trading, SPY is tightening for a breakout: * Intraday (scalping/trading): Watch $670–671 closely. A breakout here favors longs into $673+. If SPY rejects at $671 and breaks $668, expect a pullback toward $663. * Options trading (swing/0DTE): Calls only make sense if SPY clears $671 with conviction. If SPY fails at $670 and breaks $668, puts toward $663–660 offer better risk/reward. Bias heading into Oct 3: Neutral with breakout watch — $668 support vs $671 resistance will decide. Disclaimer:

Elliott Wave Forecast: SPDR S&P 500 (SPY)’s Path to Record PeaksThe Short-Term Elliott Wave analysis for the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY), starting from August 2, indicates an ongoing impulsive rally. From the August 2 low, the ETF surged in wave ((i)) to 647.04, followed by a dip in wave ((ii)) concluding at 634.92. The ETF then climbed in wave ((iii)) to 667.34. A corrective pullback in wave ((iv)) formed a zigzag Elliott Wave pattern. From the wave ((iii)) peak, wave (a) declined to 661.98, wave (b) rallied to 664.65, and wave (c) dropped to 654.42, completing wave ((iv)). The ETF has since resumed its upward trajectory in wave ((v)), exhibiting an impulsive structure with internal extensions. From the wave ((iv)) low, wave (i) reached 662.37, and a brief pullback in wave (ii) ended at 657.88. The ETF then nested higher, with wave i peaking at 665.8 and wave ii correcting to 660.93. Wave iii ascended to 670.74, followed by a wave iv pullback to 666.78. As long as the pivot low at 654.42 holds, the ETF should continue its upward momentum in the near term.

SPY Stalling at $669 – Gamma Ceiling in Play (Oct 2) Intraday (15-Min Chart) SPY ripped higher into the 668–669 zone, testing the upper channel before momentum started cooling. On the 15-min chart, MACD has rolled over into red, while Stoch RSI is mid-range after pulling back from overbought. * Immediate resistance: $669.3 intraday high. * Support zones: $666.6 first, then $662 (gap fill and prior pivot). * Upside trigger: A breakout over $669.5 opens the door toward 671–673 intraday. * Downside risk: Break under $666 could trigger a pullback to $662–660. Bias intraday: leaning bullish above 666, but momentum is stalling — buyers need to hold the line for continuation. Options / GEX (1-Hour Chart) Gamma positioning defines the battlefield clearly. * Call walls: Heavy resistance at 667–671, with 669 marking the highest positive GEX level. Above 671, dealer hedging could fuel a push into 673+. * Put walls: Key support sits at 662 and 660, with deeper protection at 655. * Sentiment: Options flow leans bearish (≈97% puts), showing caution despite the recent rally. This suggests SPY is pinned into a tight gamma box — 662 support vs 671 resistance. A breakout could fuel volatility, but chop is likely until one side cracks. My Thoughts For Oct 2, SPY is at a decision point. Scalps favor longs above 666 targeting 669–671, with tight stops if 666 fails. For option traders, a 668/671 call spread works if momentum carries higher, while a 665/660 put spread hedges downside if resistance holds. Bias: Neutral to bullish above 666 — but until 671 breaks, SPY is capped by gamma walls. Disclaimer: This analysis is for educational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice.

Welcome to the month of crashesSPY extended gains today, pushing into overextended territory relative to longer-term averages. The trend remains constructive, but the setup is becoming more two-sided as we head into October — a month historically prone to sharp market swings. Bullish case: Momentum remains strong within the broader uptrend. A sustained breakout above 670–675 could open the path toward 690–700. Bearish case: 🌍 Rising geopolitical tensions, 💱 Carry trade unwinding, and 🏦 The risk of no Fed rate cuts due to lack of supportive data, combined with the seasonal October crash risk. Historically, October has been prone to sharp market selloffs (1929, 1987, 2008), adding seasonal risk., could ignite a 10–12% correction. First warning sign: a breakdown below 660. Deeper risk emerges if 645–650 support fails, which could accelerate downside momentum. ⚡ Takeaway: SPY is stretched — while upside targets remain valid, traders should watch these key levels as confirmation for either continuation or correction.

$SPY Sectors: Shutdown PeriodA shutdown doesn’t hit all S&P 500 sectors equally. Some feel the impact right away through halted government spending or disrupted data, while others react more indirectly. Reality check at this point is necessary especially when the event of this scale creates evident misbalances. Therefore I'd like to document how the interplay of money flow across sectors might change at least for the period. AMEX:SPY Sectors Impact: AMEX:XLF Financials Financials rely heavily on government economic data (Jobs Report, CPI, GDP) to gauge loan demand, credit risk, and Fed direction. With the Fed “flying blind,” bank lending becomes more cautious. Market volatility also reduces IPOs and M&A activity, hurting investment banks. ⬩Driver: Fed uncertainty + weaker deal-making environment. AMEX:XLK Technology Big Tech is less exposed to direct government spending freezes but relies on consumer confidence and capital markets. If uncertainty drives a pullback in corporate IT spending, cloud/software firms slow down. On the upside, tech is a defensive haven when traditional sectors (like industrials or energy) face disruption. ⬩Driver: Consumer/corporate demand resilience vs. risk-off rotation. AMEX:XLE Energy Energy projects (infrastructure, pipelines, renewables) often require federal permits and data from agencies like the EIA (Energy Information Administration). Delays stall exploration, development, and reporting. Additionally, frozen infrastructure funds cut into fuel demand from construction. ⬩Driver: Permitting delays + construction slowdown = weaker demand. AMEX:XLV Healthcare Healthcare is relatively defensive—people still need services. But disruption at the FDA and NIH means drug approvals, trials, and public health programs are delayed. Medicare/Medicaid payment systems could face administrative snags. ⬩Driver: Resilient demand but policy bottlenecks. AMEX:XLP Consumer Staples Grocery, beverages, and household goods usually benefit when uncertainty rises, as consumers shift toward essentials. SNAP (food assistance) delays could weigh on lower-income demand if prolonged. ⬩Driver: Defensive flows into necessities. AMEX:XLY Consumer Discretionary Discretionary spending suffers most when consumer confidence dips. Federal worker furloughs reduce near-term demand for retail, travel, and leisure. Auto sales also slow since they’re sensitive to credit and consumer sentiment. ⬩Driver: Weaker consumer confidence + furloughs. AMEX:XLU Utilities Utilities are defensive and less exposed to federal data flow. If Treasury yields dip on uncertainty, utilities benefit from their bond-proxy status. Regulatory delays on projects could be a small drag. ⬩Driver: Defensive positioning + rate sensitivity. AMEX:XLI Industrials Infrastructure and defense are big demand drivers. With $18 billion in infrastructure projects frozen, construction, machinery, and engineering firms take a hit. Aerospace/defense may see delayed contracts and funding interruptions. ⬩Driver: Government contract freezes + halted projects. AMEX:XLC Communication Services Ad-driven platforms (Meta, Alphabet) face weaker consumer spending and sentiment. Telecoms see little direct effect. Longer-term, uncertainty may reduce advertising budgets, hurting growth. ⬩Driver: Advertising sensitivity to sentiment. AMEX:XLB Materials Materials are highly linked to infrastructure and construction demand. Frozen federal projects reduce demand for cement, steel, and aggregates. Chemical companies may also face regulatory/permitting delays. ⬩Driver: Halted infrastructure = weaker demand. AMEX:XLRE Real Estate Higher uncertainty + Fed rate blindness weigh on commercial real estate and REITs. Infrastructure freezes reduce demand for new building projects. On the flip side, lower Treasury yields (if the market prices recession risks) could support REITs as bond proxies. ⬩Driver: Rate sensitivity vs. demand freeze. These in turn trigger some other processes, depending on duration of government shutdown.
