Bias for Today: Short with Bearish FVGs or Flip Long on Short with Bearish FVGs or Flip Long entering Calls on the First Bullish Fair Value Gap. AMEX:SPY "Today's market bias is to open with a short outlook. If bearish Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) start to form and price respects them, I’ll look to enter short positions targeting lower levels. However, if price bounces off these zones and a bullish FVG forms, I will shift focus to initiate long positions on the first bullish FVG that sets up cleanly. Watching for clear confirmations and respecting key price action levels will be critical. Let’s stay adaptive to what the market gives us!"

12/22/24 Weekly Watchlist + NotesAMEX:SPY - Huge sell off across the board from FOMC news on Wednesday. SPY sold off down through previous Broadening Formation range reclaiming previous downside pivot just below 684. So with that in mind, we expand out of the BF below that pivotal low, or come back through range above it. With SPY currently setup to potentially go 3-2 daily, we look to see whether fridays high or low gets taken out. Being above the pivot at 684, we are looking to come back through that BF range and make new ATHs as of now. Of course this can all change depending on whether our W is green or red, but for now we are closer to making a daily HH than a LL. With Christmas being this week, the markets close 2 hours early on Tuesday, and re open on Thursday. Being a short week like this, we need to be extra cautious as there will be lower than normal volume, and simply less time for the weekly candle to form, so expectations on a large move this week as most seem to be predicting, may not happen for the prior reasons. Personally will not be trading Tuesday and possibly not at all this week if I don't see absolute A+ setups. Watchlist: Bullish: NASDAQ:NVDA - Pot. 1-3-2U Daily to trigger failed 2D hammer week. Swept BF lows this past week. Looking to come back through range. This is a big name for the markets, so I expect that if the markets are recovering, this will lead the way or follow with it NASDAQ:MU - 2-2U reversal potential daily to target gap fill from ER. We took out weekly BF mag on friday, hitting exhaustion levels after finally escaping the motherbar it was stuck in for the last 11 weeks. One side gets toasted, magnitude is hit for W and M. All the ingredients for a big recovery. Only issue is being stuck in last weeks range NASDAQ:PLTR - potential 3-2D for a simultaneous weekly 2-1-2U trigger. Nuclear green on all TFs. Slight room to go to target ATH again, but mainly looking for the weekly inside up measured move, meaning if we go 2-1-2U, we can expect the same move up as we had in the week prior to last weeks inside bar week. Cruise Lines: NYSE:CCL + NYSE:NCLH Weekly hammers. NYSE:RCL Not a clean weekly AS, but similar daily to other names in the industry. Bearish: NASDAQ:TSLA - 3-1 4Hr to trigger MoMo shooter Daily to trigger Shooter Weekly 2-2. Daily PMG to target from ATH Exhaustion. (Big green day for most names Friday, why was TSLA so bearish with such relative strength lately?) NASDAQ:AVGO - Shooter 2U Day to trigger 2-2 shooter week. Huge gap up from earnings. Looking to attack the gap. NYSE:KO - MoMo Shooter 2D day to trigger 2-1-2D week. Having issues making range lately, but daily BF is targeting lower still, and weekly 2-2d has yet to be negated. Inside week will confirm more downside to target our BF magnitudes on the D and W, or it will be negated by a 2U week. Simple plan here. Short under prev week low, exit if back above. NYSE:UBER - MoMo shooter 2d Weekly to reconfirm M 2D and Q 2U going 3. Check Monthly for the BF. Wanna see continuation lower to Q mag at 54.84. No daily AS but 3-1 4HR. May be a slower mover on the list. Basing all my decisions on the weekly as the momo shooter should simply just trigger and work

Watchlist (12/16-12/20) Using TheStratSPY Analysis: Month is 2U but back under previous M high and close to flipping red. Last week was 2D but failed to get to magnitude and closed red, but above the reversal trigger at previous week lows. Daily was 2D on Friday, so the daily actionable signal would be a 2D-2U reversal if buyers were strong enough to make a higher high on the daily come Monday. To get us lower, we have a 3-1 4HR setup as well as a shooter 2U Hourly candle. Trigger and target levels can be seen on the chart. Overall, we have some confliction as the D and W are red while the M is still green. This shows an attempt to flip the month red and we must view it this way until we see a daily higher high. If that were to happen, then we look to see the week flip red and then possibly make a higher high on the week for the weekly reversal back to the upside, which would re confirm the month being 2U and green. Traditional TA traders will see a wedge or bull flag on the daily/4HR, but as Strat traders, we know this is just a lack of strength from either side as we continue seeing failed attempts to make HHs and LLs. Although unconventional, if you check the 3 Day TF through the 8 Day TF, you will see they are all currently inside bars in formation still. We also know that inside bars restart the process of making broadening formations, so now its just a waiting game. We see the current attempt is to make lower lows on the daily since we failed to take highs out after the daily reversal, so we now either take out lows, or fail and move back through previous range to the upside. With conflicting situations like this, you just have to rely on timeframe continuity. Until the M, W, D, and 60 are all the same color, simply fall back on top down analysis and timeframe continuity to see what's really going on regardless of how the charts may look Weekly Watchlist: Bullish: ETSY - 2-1 Week, Failed 2D Day. FTFC Green, so looking for BF expansion on the weekly CRWD - 2-1 Hammer Week. 4HR inside bar. Monthly 3-2-2 still slowly compounding 2Us to Mag RBLX - MoMO Hammer 2U week. 2-1 Daily to trigger week RKLB - 3-2D Hammer Week. Relatively large ATR and high rVol Bearish: MCD - 3-1 Week, Shooter 2U Day PINS - 3-2U failed Week, No Daily AS. Weekly Motherbar issues so caution here PDD 1-2U failed week (Revstrat). No Daily AS. Going for large weekly BF magnitude ROKU - Failed 2U Week. At Monthly exhaustion risk. Daily PMG and gap fill potential OXY - 2-1 Shooter Week. Not much range, but clean weekly AS and all big oil names deep red DDOG - 2-1 Week (Huge red week), Daily 1-3. 2 Daily gap fills, and some weekly lows to target LVS - 2-3 Week. At Q exhaustion. Will be FTFC Red before W triggers the 3-2D Neutral: WMT - 2-1 Week, Daily 3-2D failed. Daily AS could send it back into ATH. Alternatively there is an 11 pivot PMG to the downside + a small gap to fill

SPY will drop ... until Christmas.This is going to be quick.... busy right now. You can look at my other charts to see the explanation of why I use the Heikin Ashi candlesticks. The SPY is going to drop until Christmas. You can see the indicators on the daily chart shifting towards a downward move. I believe you will see a zig zag move with this drop. This week the market will drop. Starting Monday you will see it move slightly upward as there will be indecision/positivity around the Fed Decision. After the Fed Decision, the market will drop again until Christmas. This drop will be about the same distance as the drop this week. The targets I have laid out are on the Chart with the drop hitting around 593 before going back up at the beginning of next week to hit about 601. (It may not go up this high with the bounce up; it could hit a different level. I will update this post of the different levels it could hit if it hits my 593 target.) After the Fed decision, it will drop until approximately 585. I could be slightly off on any one of my targets. And if it doesn't hit 593 by the end of this week, all my other predictions will shift. Happy trading.

$SPY December 10, 2024AMEX:SPY December 10, 2024 15 Minutes. 605 as expected was done. Downtrend confirmed as long AMEX:SPY is below 607 levels. 607 is 200 averages in 5 minutes and 61.8% retracement for the fall 609.07 to 604.08 This 606-607 is a level to short. For the rise 597.28 to 609.07 61.8% retracement is 601-602 levels. Soif 604 is broken today 599-600 is my target for today. In daytime frame AMEX:SPY took support at 9 averages. 21 average is 598 levels. For me usually downtrend in 15 minutes until 200 averages price is above current price in 5 minutes. We have an oscillator divergence at close. price made LL but oscillator did not support. So, i expect a pull back at open.

SPY/QQQ Plan Your Trade For 12-12: Breakaway PatternToday's video goes into detail related to the general SPY/QQQ trending and the continued potential for a price Anomaly Event. It is likely that the markets continue a Santa Rally phase - attempting to push higher throughout the end of 2024 and into 2025. I want everyone to understand that the anomaly event I keep suggesting may happen is an outlier event. It would be driven by some news, political, financial or other type of market event. If that event does not happen, then the markets will likely continue to push higher and higher. So, remember, the markets want to push higher into the typical Santa Rally. My Anomaly event would be a potential outlier event - driving a moderate pullback in price. Gold and Silver should move into a moderate topping pattern today - possibly pulling downward a big. This would be a goo setup for the next rally phase higher. That rally may come tomorrow or into early next week. Bitcoin is trapped within a consolidation range. The rally yesterday was nice to see, but right now we are seeing Bitcoin struggle below resistance. So, we still need to be cautious about rolling downward. Yet, the general trend for Bitcoin right now is upward.

Spy 620 EOYHello Traders... Been awhile.. Figured time for an idea.. I see us hitting around 620 EOY... For now we might get a little dip this week before we head up there the last two weeks of the year. I see something happening around February 1 then something again around March/April. I have a feeling SPY/SPX wants to tag 666/6666 since 2008 bottom was 666 .. Will we head straight there as shown with trendlines around April 2025? Or will we have a pullback at end of January... then head back up that way into the summer. I see us peaking around of Summer 2025. Then maybe have weaker/selloffs into 2026.. My thinking as of now.. see how things go. Feb 1 is ? .. Some think it will peak around then.. It's possible..But I'm leaning towards maybe a pullback at most... and at least...nothing much..and we continue to April then get the bigger pullback. But I also see another wave summer 2025.

A Bullish Setup with Fair Value Gap in Play Time to Tap Into the Reversal? As we approach a critical juncture on SPY, the charts are presenting a fascinating opportunity for those tuned into price action and market structure. The recent price behavior suggests we may be at the cusp of a significant reversal, and a potentially bullish setup is starting to take shape. Let’s dive into why I believe SPY is primed to tap into the fair value gap (FVG) above, and why this may be the perfect time to look for long positions. The Reversal Is in the Air After a recent pullback, we’re seeing key technical indicators point toward a possible reversal. Price action has been testing critical support levels, and momentum is showing signs of slowing down, setting up the conditions for a bullish pivot. But what truly stands out here is the fair value gap (FVG) formed below the current price. For those familiar with the concept, a fair value gap is an area where price has moved too quickly through a range, leaving an imbalance between buy and sell orders. These gaps often get filled as the market seeks to restore equilibrium. Filling the Fair Value Gap – The Bullish Potential Looking closely at SPY’s chart, we’re seeing the potential for price to either tap into the fair value gap below or close above it, signaling a strong move to the upside. If we see a push past recent resistance levels, this could trigger a gap fill on the bullish side, with price aiming for a higher target. Here’s what we want to watch for: Reversal Confirmation: A close above the current resistance level would confirm the potential for the bullish move. Look for a clean break and retest to validate the strength of the move. Fair Value Gap Fill: As mentioned, price may want to fill the gap to restore equilibrium. If this occurs, it could serve as a solid entry point for long positions, with targets set to the upside. Entry Strategy – Calls Look Attractive Once the reversal is confirmed and the fair value gap is filled or cleared, it’s time to look for long positions. SPY has a history of making swift moves, and with momentum in our favor, a well-timed entry could provide solid returns. For those who prefer options, consider buying calls as an efficient way to tap into the bullish potential. Look for a strike price near the next significant resistance level to capitalize on the move, and make sure to manage risk appropriately with stop-loss levels. What to Watch Next Keep an eye on the following key levels: Immediate Resistance: The first resistance area to watch will be around . A breakout above this level could signal the start of the bullish leg. Fair Value Gap Zone: If SPY taps into the fair value gap, expect a pullback followed by a potential rise. The gap filling could set the stage for a more sustainable move upward. Wrapping It Up The current setup on SPY is compelling, and it’s important to stay vigilant as price action unfolds. With a potential reversal on the horizon and the fair value gap acting as a key technical level, the next move could be a strong one. Be ready to take advantage of the upside if we see a confirmation of this bullish shift. As always, use proper risk management, and stay informed of any macroeconomic events that could influence market sentiment. Happy trading, and let's see where SPY takes us next!

SPY should go up tomorrow ....I am using the Heikin Ashi Candlesticks as I find you can see a definite directional pattern with them on the chart itself. Typically, you should wait until you see two green candles, but if you look at some of the indicators on the 6 hour chart, you can see that it is indicating a bullish move. The 7 hour and daily indicators should follow soon. (I will post these hourly charts following this idea) After the US election last month, the market shifted a little in the amount of days the SPY went up. In the month of November, the market only went up about 7 days but it did hit an upward move of 32 points and the Fibonacci number. I believe the market was shifting in November to get ready for the US Thanksgiving and Christmas as well as other upcoming events such as the Fed Meeting in December and other events in the January. The SPY will go up until about Nov 25th before moving sideways for a few days while US Thanksgiving is nearing. After US Thanksgiving and Black Friday, the market will continue to go up until Dec. 9 to 11th which is about a 12 to 14 day move using the green Heikin Ashi candlesticks. This was the typical length of time of the move of the previous months with the exception of November. In the last few months, I have observed that the up trend goes up between 12 to 14 days. So I will be out by Dec 10th. If the market hits the 1.619 Fibonacci, which is about 609, I am out. The SPY has been usually moving about 32 points per month on average. If it hits a 32 point upward move (616), I will be out. (but it will hit the 1.619 Fibonacci line before it hits the 32 point move) I believe the SPY will go up for the month of December and January before going down in February. I have been noticing that the market goes up for about 3 months before having a more of a downward trend in the fourth month. The market should technically go down after the middle of January and for approximately a month. During that time, the market may shift a little in time. (I am looking forward to that month to learn more.) If you look at the indicators on the 6 hour charts, specifically the DMI, Stochastic RSI, and the MacD, you can see that they are starting to shift to indicate a bullish move. Typically, I used the half hour, the hourly and the four-hour chart indicators to confirm that this is indeed a bullish move. I need all those indicators to align to confirm a trend. I only trade with the strength of the trend not the retractions. And typically (not always) I wait for at least 2 green Heikin Ashi candles to confirm trend before I enter. These are my rules that I follow. As I have said in my previous charts, I find the 5 minute indicators show what will happen in the next half hour, the 10 minute indicators show what will happen in the next hour, the half hour indicators show what will happen in the daily charts and the hour indicators will show what will happen over the next few days. (My opinion, not fact) I trade simple ... if I can't see the trade in a few simple steps, then this is not the trade for me. Also, I explain my trades in more detail for me, not for you. Repetition is the key for me. If I repeat it over enough in my head, it will more likely stick. Happy Trading everyone!!! :-) And here's to making oodles of money or at least learning something if you don't.

SPY's Potential Reversal at New York OpenThe market is always moving towards stop loses. Price is always seeking them out and the Market-Description: In this analysis, we're observing the SPY chart on a 15-minute timeframe as it approaches the New York Open on Monday. The chart illustrates a potential retracement back up towards the most recent bearish Fair Value Gap (FVG), which is creating liquidity for the market to potentially move further down. Key Observations: Bearish Fair Value Gap: Identified as a critical zone where price may react, providing a potential entry point for short positions. Liquidity Creation: The retracement towards the FVG is seen as a mechanism for liquidity creation, setting the stage for a possible downward move. Trend Break and Reversal: After the initial downward move, we anticipate a break in the trend, leading to a reversal back towards the upside. This prediction is based on past observations and aims to provide insights into potential market movements. Traders should watch for any current Fair Value Gaps and monitor price action closely as the market unfolds.

SPY Technical Analysis and Options Strategy with GEX GammaGamma Levels and Observations Using GEX Profile: The GEX Profile provides critical insights into the underlying price action by identifying gamma-related support and resistance zones. Here's a breakdown of the key levels derived from the GEX indicator: 1. Resistance Levels: * 610: Significant call gamma resistance. Price movement above this zone often requires increased buying pressure as market makers adjust their hedging positions to counterbalance gamma exposure. * 605: A pivotal resistance level where SPY struggled to break above. This area caps bullish momentum as market makers' hedging activities intensify to maintain stability. 2. Support Levels: * 600: A major put gamma support level. This zone tends to attract buying activity because market makers may adjust their hedging positions to provide stability as the price approaches. * 595: The next gamma-supported area below 600. This level acts as a secondary buffer, absorbing selling pressure as gamma exposure decreases. Price Action and Gamma Interaction: * Today’s price action showed a clear respect for the 600 gamma support, reflecting increased hedging activities by market makers. This level stabilized the price as it approached, attracting buying interest. * On the upside, 605 gamma resistance acted as a ceiling, showing stabilization from market makers' hedging adjustments. A break above this level may indicate reduced hedging pressure and a bullish shift. Options Strategy Plan: 1. Bullish Scenario: * Strategy: Vertical Call Spread * Setup: * Buy the 605 Call. * Sell the 610 Call. * Target: Profit from a move toward 610. * Risk Management: Close the position if SPY drops below 600. 2. Bearish Scenario: * Strategy: Vertical Put Spread * Setup: * Buy the 600 Put. * Sell the 595 Put. * Target: Gain from a decline toward 595. * Risk Management: Exit if SPY reclaims 605. 3. Range-Bound Scenario: * Strategy: Iron Condor * Setup: * Upper Range: Sell the 605 Call, Buy the 610 Call. * Lower Range: Sell the 600 Put, Buy the 595 Put. * Target: Profit from SPY staying between 600 and 605. * Risk Management: Adjust or close the trade if the price moves outside the range. Selecting the Best Expiration Date for Options: 1. Short-Term Trades: * If you anticipate a quick move (1-3 days), use weekly options (closest expiration) to benefit from higher delta sensitivity and lower upfront costs. * For instance: * Bullish Trade: Use the nearest Friday expiration for the 605/610 Call Spread. * Bearish Trade: Use the nearest Friday expiration for the 600/595 Put Spread. 2. Medium-Term Trades: * If you expect the move to play out over 1-2 weeks, select options expiring 7-14 days out. This helps balance theta decay with enough time for the move to develop. * Example: * Bullish: Buy the 605 Call Spread expiring next Friday. * Bearish: Buy the 600 Put Spread expiring next Friday. 3. Hedging or Longer-Term Views: * For broader market hedging or if you're less certain about timing, use monthly options (15-45 days out). These allow time for the trade to develop and reduce the impact of time decay. * Example: * Buy the 610 Call (bullish) or the 595 Put (bearish) expiring in the next monthly cycle. Projection: * Bullish Case: SPY breaks above 605, targeting 610 with momentum-driven buying. Reduced selling pressure above this level may support further upside. * Bearish Case: Failure to hold 600 could drive SPY toward 595, as hedging activities intensify to counter selling momentum. Hedging Explained in Context: Gamma hedging impacts price movements significantly. Market makers adjust their positions based on gamma exposure: * At positive gamma levels like 605, market makers sell into strength, stabilizing price movements. This creates resistance. * At negative gamma levels like 600, market makers buy into weakness, supporting the price and reducing volatility. These dynamics allow traders to anticipate where market makers might influence price action. Trading Plan for Tomorrow: 1. Bullish Approach: * Look for a sustained move above 605 with increased volume. * Target: 610. * Stop-loss: Below 603. 2. Bearish Approach: * Watch for a break below 600 with strong selling pressure. * Target: 595. * Stop-loss: Above 602. 3. Neutral Strategy: * If price consolidates between 600 and 605, consider range-bound strategies like an iron condor.

SPY/QQQ Plan Your Trade for 12-11: Flat Down PatternToday's pattern suggests the markets will slide downward after the CPI data came in as expected. I believe the markets are going to roll into an Excess Phase Peak pattern over the next 5+ days - setting up a big potential downward price swing (the Anomaly Event) before the end of 2024. Gold is moving into a CRUSH pattern today. We may see a very big price move (I suspect higher) today as traders move to hedge weakness and market concerns globally. Bitcoin recently set a new lower low, showing us that the dominant trend is Bearish. Bitcoin set up another potential Excess Phase Peak pattern, totaling four current Excess Phase Peak patterns in this broad sideways consolidation range. The breakout, either to the upside or downside, in Bitcoin could be very explosive. Remember, we continue to trade into a low liquidity price trend throughout the end of 2024. So stay cautious and stay aware of the risks for the Anomaly Event.

SPY/S&P500: in the mid-term resistance zonePrice has approached the upper border of the mid-term resistance zone: 598-612. Until price closes bellow 612, I am preparing for the start of a correction to mid-term support: 564-540. If price moves confidently above 612, than next resistance target is at 635 level. The macro-structure of the uptrend from 2022 lows is well intact until price holds above 540 level and assumes higher targets for 2025 at 635-640-670 levels. I wish everyone Merry Christmas and successful and profitable 2025! Thank you for your attention.
