Week 40 — How will the White House Cluster affecting S&P 500?
In Week 39 market round up, I mentioned 4 signs that could signal S&P 500 stock market bottom and last week turned out bullish as S&P 500 held up the gain after breaking out from the falling wedge pattern despite volatility picked up on Friday as Trump was tested positive for COVID-19.
Although S&P 500 did not dropped below the key support at 3300 on Friday based on the news alone, there is a White House Cluster for COVID-19 and there could be more negative news around this specific cluster coming out in the coming weeks while a lot of people are watching the unfolding of the key event — US selection on 3 Nov 2020. So from now till the US election, we could expect rising of volatility in the stock market as spooked by the uncertainty in the election, COVID-19 and the economy.
Let’s tackle the volatility with the chart based on the price and volume alone.
Scenario 1: More bearish news and the market drops
Should the S&P 500 break below 3300, the next level of defense is 3200–3230. Bearish level will be escalated if 3200 is broken and need to be re-assessed.
Scenario 2: More bearish news and the market holds/rises
Similar to the price action on last Friday (2 Oct 2020), the sentiment was bearish and lots of traders speculated a break below 3300. Supply increased together with the volatility, yet the market holds and recovered some of the losses during the US session.
S&P 500 will have more choppy price action and climbs a wall of worry within the trading range 3200–3600.
Scenario 3: Not much bearish news and the market holds/rises
Volatility settles down with decreasing supply while the S&P 500 climbs up slowly within the trading range 3200–3600.
Based on the price structure and supply level, I still favor Scenario 2 & 3.
