ES Daily UpdateNot oversold yet, if you're looking to play the bounce, I suggest waiting until next week. I anticipate an Israeli attack before Monday anyways.by hungry_hippoUpdated 5
ES Midday ActionWTF was that? 15 minute pump, 15 minute dump. Talk about a bull trap. I don't recommend going long until after Israel bombs Iran, that should cause the daily to go oversold. Look to play the bounce a day or two after it happens. Note: 15 min chart, ignore the indicators, they just show up because of my templateby hungry_hippoUpdated 227
ES1! afternoon updateBull count in green, bear count in red. Area in orange ellipse started off as chop monster, more impulsive action since 12 April. Given the depth and price action since ATH, odds moving strongly towards top being in. I am now watching for a larger (and more complicated) leading diagonal setting up. Even we get a (temporary) bottom today and move back towards 5200, I think bears will set in again and send us lower.by discobiscuit0
ES UpdateWell, I posted last night that I wasn't gonna trade. Expecting a bounce tomorrow, but probably too small to make it wort teh risk. If a market can melt up, it can melt down as well. My advice is to just stay cash and take a break.by hungry_hippoUpdated 7

Trading Plan for Wednesday, April 17th, 2024Trading Plan for Wednesday, April 17th, 2024 Market Sentiment: Uncertain, as investors digest comments from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell and assess their implications on the timing of potential rate cuts. Key Supports Immediate Supports: 5091, 5082 (major), 5076, 5068 (major) Major Supports: 5046-51 (major), 5038 (major), 4996-5000 (major) Key Resistances Near-term Resistance: 5097 (major), 5108 (major), 5115, 5126-29 (major), 5155 (major) Major Resistances: 5171 (major), 5188-90 (major), 5225-30 (major), 5280-83 (major) Trading Strategy Monitoring Fed Commentary: Stay updated on further statements from Federal Reserve officials as they will influence market direction. Range-Bound Trading: The 5082-5115 zone remains a choppy range. Focus on failed breakdowns within this zone, or holding position runners. Long Opportunities: Look for bids at 5091 (after multiple successful tests), reclaims of 5082, or failed breakdowns at 5076. Knife-catch protocol applies for any deeper longs, particularly at 5046-51. Short Opportunities: Consider shorts if backtesting breakdown zones like 5126-29, 5155, or 5171. Prioritize a failure of 5082 on the short side. Profit-Taking: On shorts, consider taking profits entirely at major levels, especially given ES's tendency to short squeeze. Bull Case Reclaims are Key: Bulls need to reclaim breakdown zones, starting with 5126-29, then 5171 to signal a potential short-term bottom. Holding Support: A sustained hold of 5082 could lead to a bounce and backtests of the resistances listed above. Adding on Strength: Breaks above 5108 after acceptance suggest potential for more upside. Bear Case Breakdown Signals: Bears maintain short-term control until bulls can reclaim key levels discussed above. A failure of 5082 is a warning, with shorts below 5068 targeting 5046-51 (where runners would likely be exited). As always, be wary of traps – look for a bounce/failed breakdown first.

Head and shoulders on ESForgive me for using MES, but it’s easier because I don’t have to clear any existing markup. I’ve been watching this H&S pattern form for a while now and looks very clean on the 8 hour chart here. The measured move for the breakdown takes us to 5000. I expect that we retest the neckline and clean up the imbalances (FVGs) in the process before we ultimately get rejected and move towards 5,000 over the next couple of weeks. It just so happens that the .618 fib lines up exactly with the neck line if you pull the fib from the last swing high to the current swing low on the 8 hour. Weekly momentum also suggests we go lower and overall economic indicators seem to suggest a bigger correction is coming. This very well could be the start of a bigger correction, but my immediate targets will be a retest of the neckline and a measured move down to 5000.Shortby Uplift32221
S&P500(US500):🔴Is it Bearish...?!🔴(Details on caption)By examining the ES1! 4-hour chart (S&P), we can figure out that, the market structure is bearish, so we looking for a sell position. In that case, the price had a bearish reaction to all of the bearish Pd Array, so we can expect a bearish reaction on the balance price range (BPR). In my perspective, sell-side liquidity is a draw on liquidity. Until this sell-side is not purging I don't think about buy position. 💡Wait for the update! 🗓️15/04/2024 🔎 DYOR 💌It is my honor to share your comments with me💌Shortby VahidTradingCRUpdated 115

ES Before Bedtime UpdateAll 3 indicators are oversold, but quite frankly I'm not very bullish. I'd rather short the pumps at this point. Probably not trading tomorrow. My best guess is that Israel will attack on April 26th, because it's my birthday, lol.by hungry_hippo6

Possible Low Area: Good ops to short rip We might be in bearish Elliot waves here on ES / SPX. If we are, there's a good chance we are at a low point now and due to enter into an ABC correction.

ES1! evening updateAlthough 15 April was a bearish day, and the daily price action continues to give us lower lows, I think the possibility of a leading diagonal is now less likely. 5213.25 is now key resistance, and I anticipate that resistance to hold and at least one more daily lower low before a bottom is found.by discobiscuit0

ES UpdateES hit the bottom trendline, but like I said last week, I'm not going long until both RSI and MFI hit oversold. Quit frankly I'm scared to hold any long position overnight, so probably just gonna day trade tomorrow if it does go oversold. I didn't post this morning because I wasn't quite sure what the market was gonna do, MFI hit oversold premarket, but the market sold off the gap right away. Looks to me like I'm not the only one waiting for RSI to go oversold. I'm under the assumption that the daily indicators will hit oversold, so there will be a better play in a week or two anyways.by hungry_hippo4
S&P Bearish after Retail Sales.. Israel/Iran conflict abroad? 🤨The S&P futures is quite weak after strong USD retail sales data. This move opposes a rational reaction to data that came out better than forecasted by a good margin. The market is pulling back and continuing the bearish momentum from the previous week. This may have to do with the conflict between Israel and Iran, this retracement back down. Oil is pushing up and Gold is pushing up late in the NY session here on Monday April 15th.. Money is being shifted to those Risk-On assets rather than stock indices such as S&PShortby ShrewdCatfx1

This news will dominate market reaction. Adaptability is Key: Market conditions could change rapidly, prioritize flexibility and risk management. Sunday Open: Focus on how the market opens and reacts to the news. Large gaps are possible in either direction. Long Opportunities: Due to the high risk, only consider longs after the initial reaction and if a stable support zone forms. Potential bids at 5163, reclaiming 5155, or (depending on the open) reclaiming 5177. Emphasis on failed breakdowns.

Bear Case Escalation of Conflict: Continued escalation of tensions could lead to a significant market sell-off. Breakdown of 5163: A failure of 5163 opens up downside targets.

News: Top Stories for April 15th, 2024 Geopolitical Crisis: Escalating tensions between Iran and Israel dominate headlines and overshadow all other news. Potential repercussions for the global economy, oil prices, and markets. Impact on Market Outlook: Uncertainty and volatility dominate the April outlook.

Other Market and Economic News: Monitor secondary news sources for updates on the Iran/Israel situation and potential market impacts. Reminder: The weekend geopolitical developments introduce extreme uncertainty into the markets. Be cautious, prioritize risk management, and be prepared to quickly adapt your trading strategy.Shortby spytradingpro0
