#202447 - priceactiontds - weekly update - sp500 e-mini futures

Good Evening and I hope you are well.

tl;dr
sp500 e-mini futures:
Bullish. 5 consecutive days where bears tried and bulls closed at the highs. Buy signals do not get better than this. Above 6000 we see 6050 and most likely an acceleration up to new highs. 6100 and 6150 the obvious next targets. Bears need a daily close below 5850 and would still have a bigger bull trend line to break there so the downside is likely limited.

Quote from last week:
comment:
50% retracement hit and market closed above it on Friday. My preferred path for next week is a huge bull reversal higher. Is this likely after 2 strong bear days? No it’s not, so I have to wait for either side to show a clear new direction or continuation. If this goes to 5800 without me, so be it. I think after such a big rally with follow through buying above 6000, a retracement to 50% is a buy and not a sell.

comment: Bullish bias I had, bullish it was. Market looks like it wants up bad. Every dip is bought heavily on increasing volume. Time is now to get above 6100 or we won’t get it at all. Market is beyond overvalued, overbought and the poor late bulls are just arriving. Guess who will be left holding the bags again.

current market cycle: Bull trend

key levels: 5850 - 6150 (maybe even 6200)

bull case: Last hurrah. 6100 is my first target but can absolutely go beyond 6200. Anything below 5800 would be the end of this. I don’t feel the need to explain this further. The chart is crystal clear. I have written about this blow-off top for many weeks. Just don’t forget to take profits before this turns badly. I do think the odds of this closing 2024 below 6000 are low but can absolutely happen. These bullish profits since August are outrageous and once the run for the exits begins, it will be ruthless.
Invalidation is below 5800.

bear case: Bears gave up on Friday. If they can’t get below 5900 on Monday, we will see a meltup. No bear will come around big time before 6050 and even then I think they will let the bulls show signs of exhaustion before they be aggressive.
Invalidation is above 5800.

outlook last week:
short term:
I want to join the bulls again. Need strong confirmation first though. Still no interest in selling as of now.

→ Last Sunday we traded 5896 and now we are at 5987. Perfect outlook. Hope you made some.

short term: Bullish all the way. If market closes below 5900 I would turn neutral and daily close below 5800 would probably be the end of my bullish thesis and I turn bear.

medium-long term - Update from 2024-11-24:
6100+ are my last targets for the bulls before this bubble begins to pop or at least deflate.

current swing trade: None

chart update: Added potential bullish 5-wave series.
