ES Measured Move and Running out of Steam?I do believe it's time for a slight cool off for the ES. The swings are getting smaller and we are getting tighter. Currently in a fairly large channel (main channel) but currently still in an uptrend as well. With the swings getting smaller, we will either break to the upside for a push above 4200, or break down for a cool off period back to around 4130-4100. We have also completed two legs up for a measured move. Looking like it's time for some correction. I am currently short at the 77's with profit targets of 65 (targeting the uptrend support) and 50 (targeting a breakdown of the uptrend and a third retest of ~50.

Strong Banks / Point of inflection for the Markets Bank Earnings have been great! Though, The market wasn’t overly thrilled about it. We believe this is due in part to the uncertainty it caused regarding the fed rate path. The bank failure(s) that occurred, and fear of continued failures, cast doubt on the feds ability to continue to raise rates. This elevated markets, in our opinion, in conjunction with favorable inflation and NFP reports showing a cooling economy.… then the bank earnings arrived snd acted as a headwind to the indexes. What we think is important to watch for: 1) ES1! 4200 This region has been a repeated battleground for Price action. and a close above it .. or failure at it, would be a good indicator for midterm direction. 2) FED comments on the banks earnings Overall bullish on the market- but I do think we may range for a bit longer. 3) XLF may yield sustained alpha

S&P EMAs at Historical Critical PointCME_MINI:ES1! So I opened the chart at the weekend and flicked through the time frames and upon punching the Weekly I noticed the 21EMA and the 89EMAs were pretty tight. I decided the rest of the morning looking through the historical relationship of these two EMAs. It turns out that each time the 21EMA has come down to the 89EMA, there has been a violent reaction. In general, when there are moderate to minimal macros effecting the markets, this reaction represents a strong opportunity to long. In fact, the 21EMA has never dipped below the 89EMA and recovered until months to years later. On the flip side, on the two occasions the 21EMA did dip below the 89EMA, was in 2001 and 2008...two very significant moments in market history. I also noted that once the break happens the S&P tends to bottom at around 40%-50% of that breaking point. If we were to use today's valuation, a 45% drop from today is around 2200. That is also the bottom of the COVID crash i.e. where the real market was going to be trading before infinite stimulus was provided by the Fed. I found this interesting as it seems in these troubling times and with a 'nuclear winter' around the corner in Europe, there is a real macro concern for markets. I'm leaning bearish and I think this rally will fail like every rally this year and lead the 21EMA below the 89EMA. Obviously, I react to the chart and should there be a strong reaction off the touch upwards, I will be flipping bullish.

Weekly Market Update: ES Waking up from a Bearish Slumber?Recently, the market has been reluctant to give back any gains over the course of the last three weeks. But is that changing now? Price action is a function of trader sentiment. Knowing that, every morning I wake up and ask myself, “WHY would any trader (fundamentally or technically) want to own stocks right here”? Seriously, there is no case to be made either on a fundamental or technical basis. Nonetheless, that is not how price patterns form. You need someone to take the other side of your trading thesis. Without that liquidity, I think the market would have other (more serious) issues. Technically, I have the ES having just completed its D-wave in a triangle pattern that started on December 22nd. That means we should decline in a 3-wave pattern in our E-wave for completion of our larger B (as shown on the chart). This retracement down should ultimately complete around the area of BEST CASE: ES-4005 and worst case (if the triangle pattern is correct) ES-3877. However, determining that as a legitimate bottom will be whether we can decline and maintain positive divergence on the MACD indicator. I’ll conclude by keeping this simple. If at anytime during my expected decline into the 4005-3877 area, MACD prints lower than the red-line on the chart... That is a clue we will get continuation…and we will continue to do so, until we can build a pattern of bottoms on positive divergence. Keep that top of mind over the course of the next couple weeks.

Weekly Market Update: Triangle Pattern Conclusion UnderwayAs of right now I would say the triangle pattern certainly is the prevailing pattern thesis. A triangle pattern is one that neither gives bulls nor bears much hope or despair as it tugs at both camps because its range bound. For this trader, I would classify myself as bearish on the overall market, however that does not preclude me from getting long for profit. As of my writing, I am currently short the ES and plan on closing out those positions down in my target box. As we begin our descent into my target box, I should have enough price action to dial in my position closing area more so. From today’s price of 4130 down into the area of approximately (The Sweet Spot) 3950, I plan to access the pattern for a potential long. If price has declined in a corrective manner (3-Wave Pattern) into my target box, then a long into the 4300-4500 makes sense. I wanted to keep this post simple, concise and to the point. We have enough noise to contend with between this regional banking crisis, inflation, the Fed, Jobs and the overall economy. Based on the pattern I have as of today, the above are my expectations…and as of today, I have no additional information that would cause me to change that analysis. Best to all, Chris

US 500 LongIf this is an Inverse Head and Shoulders chart pattern, 4200 is the target. What we need to see is the price get above the recent POC. Blood is in the streets. The Fed needs to get some new expectations out and deliver some news that comforts the market. Or this is their way of creating financial turmoil that gets job losses that crushes the demand. You choose your narrative. Or, maybe the news is designed to shake everyone's confidence so that the actual money men of this world can buy at a discount.

4/4 Watchlist + NotesSPY - We were spot on with our analysis going into today's session. Last night I mentioned that we had a strong close on the daily and weekly and that I wanted to see us push higher. We also stayed within a 1% range today as I had also hoped to see (.71% range total today). Didn't quite get the movement we were hoping for (Inside Day), but we still were accurate otherwise. We closed green on the day and made a smaller green candle than we did Friday, which signals a few things for me. Here are all the considerations I have currently for my prediction for tomorrow: 1) Slightly overextended on the daily + close to exhaustion risk, (Bearish) 2) Still have strong momentum on the daily and weekly, (Bullish) 3) We are nearing the top of a broadening formation created a few weeks back, (Slightly Bullish) 4) Finished green today with a healthy looking green candle (Bullish) With all of this in mind, I think that we now need to target 412-413 range sometime this week. There is really nothing stopping SPY from continuing to run other than the fact that it is in extended territory. For tomorrow my prediction is simple: I am slightly bullish, but understand that we can move hard in either direction tomorrow. Tomorrow's movement will be heavily influenced by 2 things: Whether we gap up or down during PM, and whether we break today's high or low first. If we break today's high first (Not including PM movement) then I think 412.91 is our target for tomorrow. If we break the low first, then I believe we could see somewhere in the 406.50-407.50 range. The 3rd scenario I can see happening is we take out today's high and then proceed to dump and take out today's low, forming an engulfing day. I think the first two scenarios are the most realistic, but they are all valid scenarios I could see happening tomorrow. Overall: Skeptically Bullish Watchlist + Bias: SHOP - 3-1 Daily: Bullish QQQ - 2-1 Daily: Neutral MSFT - 2-1 Daily: Neutral PYPL - 2-1 Daily and Weekly: Slightly Bullish DOCU - 2-1 Daily and 3-1-1 Weekly: Neutral Main Watch: SHOP and DOCU SHOP - 3-1 Daily with a huge gap that is partially filled to the upside. I am hoping to break to break today's high tomorrow and push higher. I think it has really good momentum to keep pushing higher. Would love to target 48.57 tomorrow. Will maybe play downside too, but mostly just focused on the upside move DOCU - This one still hasn't broken out of the inside week setup. it is now actively a 3-1-1-1, which is just unheard of for the weekly chart. Im open to playing either side. I think with this one being in a 2-1 daily, we will get to see which direction we will finally move in for the next few days/weeks. Considering swinging as well. Preferably want to play upside, but I will take what I can get. Yesterday's Main Watch: SQ - (Status:) Winner (Personally Trade?) Yes we opened under our put entry, but the play was still valid from open in my opinion. Cons from my trade peaked around 23% and I actually ended up taking a small loss because I was looking for a better entry to swing puts, but ended up not liking the swing setup, so I just took a small loss on my starter position + the extra cons I added when averaging down. Overall was in for about 40% of my target position size, and took about a 12% loss on that which translates to a roughly 5% loss had it been a normal position for me. I still count this as a winner for the list because it saw solid gains from a very readable entry. Had I been day trading and not looking for a swing entry, I would have had a different outcome, but at the end of the day, I had a plan and followed it, which is something I can't and won't be upset over. Weekly is still not broken out of, so SQ remains on my personal watchlist for the rest of the week. I wanna see what tomorrow holds for SQ before considering a new position. Watchlist Stats: 1/1 Spy Predictions 1/1 Main Watch Plays Top Winner: SQ (23%+) Personal Stats: 0/1 On Trades This Week Overall Green/Red: Red (extremely small). Early in the week. Can easily come back from today's small loss. Trade Smart Tomorrow!

Special Update: Just a Precautionary MeasureAs of yesterdays close my entire 401k which is reasonably substantial was shifted to a 4% Money Market Account. This will come as no surprise to my members (nor my followers on Trading View) that I’m not particularly bullish. From a planning standpoint I’m more comfortable with 4% and NO capital at risk than being exposed to the US Market. Maybe I’m early in doing so… but I felt it more honest to at least make my members aware of my actions. Please do not ask me if I advise you do the same. I’m not a financial advisor nor am I licensed to provide such advice.
