The Russell 2000 has just bottomed! Here's WhyAMEX:IWM CAPITALCOM:RTY AMEX:TNA 🤏🧢 Here I am, standing before you again, putting my name on the line and going against the GRAIN and telling you I believe we just bottomed on the AMEX:IWM The Russell 2000 is front-running this pullback and we are about to see a bounce next week and BIG push into year end! Here's WHY 👇 Before we take a look under the hood of the car lets talk about the weekly chart. Everything is still good: H5 Indicator is GREEN, Williams Consolidation Box is thriving, and we are on the volume shelf. Now lets take a look under the hood at the daily chart. 👇 Daily Chart Analysis: -Most important we are at the bottom of our Wr% Range and at the Green support bounce zone. As you can see every time we've been here over the last three months we've bounced for an average of 9%. -We broke down through our first level at $238 and are right at what I believe to be the final boss before we have our move higher. Why? Simple $234.66 is the previous ATH dated back to the end of 2021. So, I'm coming at you for the 100th time so it's engrained in your brain: A break of prior RESISTANCE needs a retest in order to FLIP it into SUPPORT. This is what I believe we are doing at this time at the second level of right under $235ish. -You may be asking yourself well how come we don't go down to the $228 level. Great question, it could happen but I don't believe it's a strong probability for the reasons laid out above and the fact that we've already flipped that area from resistance to support. Also, we would be caught up in a Anchored volume profile GAP that measures down to $220 and I don't believe we are at that level of a crash instead of a pullback...yet! -Speaking of Anchored Volume Profile Shelves we are currently holding on to this one even at the Level 2 support area. -As I always say we could Lit grab/ flash crash down to the weekly 9ema that sits right around $232 before we fake out to the down side and push back higher towards ATH into year end. In summary, I believe the AMEX:IWM has just bottomed and we’re poised for a bounce next week with a strong push into year-end. The Russell 2000 is leading this pullback, and both weekly and daily charts show positive indicators. With our H5 Indicator green and strong support levels holding, we’re ready to break higher. 🔜🎯$259 🎯$306 Not financial advice.

IWM | Bullish AMEX:IWM Resistance Levels: There is a significant resistance level at around 224.02. The price needs to close above this level to confirm a breakout. Another resistance level is at approximately 233.64. Support Levels: The immediate support level is the trendline, which has been acting as a resistance until now. This trendline is likely to act as a support if the breakout is confirmed. A secondary support level can be seen at around 227.13. Potential Targets: If the price closes above 224.02, it signifies a breakout from the current price channel. The first target after the breakout would be around 233.64. The second target, based on the price projection, would be approximately 244.46. Indicators: The RSI (Relative Strength Index) is currently around 63.34, which is above the neutral 50 level but not yet in the overbought territory. This suggests there is still room for upward movement. The price action shows higher highs and higher lows, indicating a bullish trend. Volume: The volume seems consistent, supporting the upward price movement. Higher volume on a breakout above 224.02 would confirm the bullish sentiment. Conclusion: If IWM closes green today above 224.02, it indicates a breakout from the current price channel, suggesting a potential further upside. The first target would be around 233.64, followed by 244.46. This position could be highly profitable for call options and futures contracts if the breakout is confirmed and sustained.

(GET READY). IWM's expected move today for FOMCWow guys look at today’s chart for FOMC for IWM. We had a really solid sell off after making new all-time highs after three years back on November 25 and that 35 EMA has been front and center. We did take it all the way back down to the 50 day moving average on the 30 minute timeframe we’re on the one hour timeframe and we’re bouncing on the 50 day moving average or at least holding above it that is also the two hour timeframe Today between 227 to 235 The 35 EMA is right above us that’s definitely the first level. If we get above that we do have the down gap from this Monday and the top of that gap is at 234.37 Then the top of the implied move is at 2:35 and 236 on Thursday’s contract then we do have an interesting cross of the 30 minute two moving average that is underneath the one hour to under average so that is a bear signal underneath us if we break the 50 day we do have The bottom of the move at 2:27 and 226 on Thursday’s contract. We do have a little bit of support that is just underneath that and it’s around 228 that goes back to around November 18 where we saw a few days before we rally to make new all-time highs so that could be a little to watch out for as well.

Market Update - 12/15/2024• only 21% invested, got shaken out of most of my positions • large bad trades this week cost me almost $300 or 10% of my account • I will not put large positions again in bad and worsening market breadth environment • watchlist is the shortest it's been in a while, setups are not the best either • most setups are in finance names, I think they could be leaders after the FED decision next week • whatever industry leads in the first few days after the FED decisions will likely be the leader • won't add new positions until the decision next week, or at least nothing large, will remain defensive until things improve

$IWM Today's Trading Range for 12.5.24IWM We've been consolidating ever since making new all-time highs for the first time in three years last week. This week so far, we've been shopping around the 35 EMA but holding above that up gap from where we made all-time highs last week. So, to the upside, the first level to look for is going to be around 243; that's where we've been seeing resistance after making all-time highs. Then, 244 is the top of the implied move, and we also have those previous all-time highs in the trading range at 244.98. Underneath us, we have that 35 EMA, and then under that, we have an up gap from last week. Then, 238 is the bottom of the implied move, and 237 on Friday's contract with the 30-minute 200 moving average underneath that, with completely flat momentum.
