Pre-FOMC Tantrums or Some Concerning Ailment?S&P 500 INDEX MODEL TRADING PLANS for TUE. 05/02 In our first trading plan of this trading week - published yesterday, Mon. 05/01 - we wrote: "With the FOMC meeting this week, everything else takes a second place until Wednesday. Expect a push-and-pull action in the markets heading into the event. If you are not a nimble trader, wait until the event is over for any directional trading. Most of the market action in the last few sessions appears to be driven by short squeezes rather than any directional conviction. Our models indicate no clear trend emerging until after Wednesday. Bulls need to be cautious about sudden spikes lower, while bears need to be cautious against taking on any shorts prematurely." The "sudden spikes lower" we mentioned are manifesting this morning - whether it is indicative of the typical "market tantrums" before FOMC day, or whether it is an indication of the banking-sector related anxiety developing into some ailment might become slowly apparent after the FOMC event tomorrow. Positional Trading Models: Our positional models, while flashing early bearish signs, indicate no trading plans for today. By definition, positional trading models may carry the positions overnight and over multiple days, and hence assume trading an instrument that trades beyond the regular session, with the trailing stops - if any - being active in the overnight session. Intraday/Aggressive Models: Our aggressive, intraday models indicate the trading plans below for today. Aggressive, Intraday Trading Plans for TUE. 05/02: For today, our aggressive intraday models indicate going long on a break above 4104, 4138, 4160, or 4168 with an 8-point trailing stop, and going short on a break below 4098, 4127, 4157, or 4164 with an 8-point trailing stop.  Models indicate explicit long exits on a break below 4132, and explicit short exits on a break above 4132. Models also indicate a break-even hard stop once a trade gets into a 4-point profit level. Models indicate taking these signals from 11:31 am ET or later. By definition the intraday models do not hold any positions overnight - the models exit any open position at the close of the last bar (3:59pm bar or 4:00pm bar, depending on your platform's bar timing convention). To avoid getting whipsawed, use at least a 5-minute closing or a higher time frame (a 1-minute if you know what you are doing) - depending on your risk tolerance and trading style - to determine the signals. (WHAT IS THE CREDIBILITY and the PERFORMANCE OF OUR MODEL TRADING PLANS over the LAST WEEK, LAST MONTH, LAST YEAR? Please check for yourself how our pre-published model trades have performed so far! Seeing is believing!)  NOTES - HOW TO INTERPRET/USE THESE TRADING PLANS: (i) The trading levels identified are derived from our A.I. Powered Quant Models. Depending on the market conditions, these may or may not correspond to any specific indicator(s). (ii) These trading plans may be used to trade in any instrument that tracks the S&P 500 Index (e.g., ETFs such as SPY, derivatives such as futures and options on futures, and SPX options), triggered by the price levels in the Index. The results of these indicated trades would vary widely depending on the timeframe you use (tick chart, 1 minute, or 5 minute, or 15 minute or 60 minute etc.), the quality of your broker's execution, any slippages, your trading commissions and many other factors.

SPX MODEL TRADING PLANS for THU. 04/27Big Tech Earnings to Trump Economic Slowdown Concerns? Yesterday evening's strong earnings from Meta seems to be adding to the tone of impressive earnings from Microsoft, Google, McDonalds, and Chipotle that all seem to demonstrate that major firms have pricing power to absorb the inflationary pressures. Continued big tech earnings momentum into the next week, peaking with Apple's earnings next Thursday, might try to buoy the markets into the next few days. It remains to be seen how sustainable this push up would prove to be. Our models show no bullish trend in sight for these markets, at least for now. Bears need to be cautious against taking on any shorts prematurely. Positional Trading Models: Our positional models, while flashing early bearish signs, indicate no trading plans for today. By definition, positional trading models may carry the positions overnight and over multiple days, and hence assume trading an instrument that trades beyond the regular session, with the trailing stops - if any - being active in the overnight session.

Models also indicate a break-even hard stop once a trade gets into a 4-point profit level. Models indicate taking these signals from 1:01 pm ET or later.

SPX Model Trading Plans for FRI. 04/21Markets Struggling to Gain Some Traction - Day 2 Despite the initial downward momentum post-PMI release this morning, markets still seem stuck in the tug-of-war between the "Inflation peaked" optimism and the "recession onset" concerns, and the earnings season so far has failed to give either the bulls or the bears any real traction.

SPX Model Trading Plans for FRI. 03/31PCE, Window Dressing, and Witching This morning's PCE data release was a yawn. While the window dressing is going to exert a push to the upside, the quarterly index options' positioning looks to be exerting a pull to the downside. Which side wins - especially in the last hour - could determine how we close today. After that, Monday will be a whole new story. Positional Trading Models: Only nimble, opportunistic trading - as opposed to positional trading - could be safe in these waters. Hence, our positional models are indicating to stay on the sidelines for yet another day. By definition, positional trading models may carry the positions overnight and over multiple days, and hence assume trading an instrument that trades beyond the regular session, with the trailing stops - if any - being active in the overnight session.

SPX Model Trading Plans for FRI. 03/24When Bank Safes Don't Feel Safe Anymore... Not just U.S. regional banks, but CreditSuisse the other day and now Deutsche Bank...investors seem to be wondering if they can feel safe with their banks, and that could lead to them first selling and then asking questions. So far, there doesn't seem to be much of a panic on the markets...yet. As we wrote in our trading plans yesterday, "For now, markets seem to be still parsing and confused as indicated by the whipsaw action so far". This confusion now could be spreading to not only the FOMC's ability to fight inflation, but about the Fed's ability to avert another 2008-like meltdown in the financial system. How this confusion evolves would have a bearing on where the markets will go in the short term, and we have no way of knowing it.

SPX Model Trading Plans for THU. 03/23Collateral Damage or Covert Help? (after being stuck in an indeterminate state, our models are out today with their trading plans for the day) The banking meltdown seems to be the collateral damage from the Fed's battle with inflation. Chair Powell tried his best to be balanced in his press conference post-FOMC yesterday, trying to indicate his preparedness to fight the inflation while indicating he is aware of - and, is on top of containing - the collateral damage that seems to be manifesting in the form of the crisis in regional banks. The crisis - and the resulting potential economic slowdown - could be a helping hand to the FOMC in its fight. The next leg in the markets will depend on how it is interpreted by the investors.

SPX Model Trading Plans for MON. 03/13The Banking Meltdown Rollercoaster Does NOT Bode Disaster! The banking meltdown that started last week is now being stemmed by the Fed, with the new Fed facility extended to the banks for liquidity. Despite the failures of SVB, Signature Bank, and Silvergate, do NOT bet against the Fed's ability to stave off economic disasters in the U.S. There is no better country or financial markets that one can turn to if the U.S. markets themselves fail, whether one likes it or not. With the situation still so fluid, it is advisable to stay on the sidelines unless you are extremely adept at navigating volatile markets. Positional Trading Models: Our positional models are indicating to stay on the sidelines for the day. By definition, positional trading models may carry the positions overnight and over multiple days, and hence assume trading an instrument that trades beyond the regular session, with the trailing stops - if any - being active in the overnight session.

Trading Plans for MON. 03/13: Aggressive Intraday Models: With all the volatility - reminiscent of the dot com bubble burst and the 2008 GFC eras - in the markets due to the ongoing banking meltdown, it could be wiser to not engage in intraday aggressive trading for today, especially given the static nature of our trading plans. Nevertheless, for those of you who MUST trade (professional trader? addicted trader? whatever may be your reason), models indicate the below trading plans: For today, our aggressive intraday models indicate going long on a break above 3896, 3881, 3865, or 3838 with a 9-point trailing stop, and going short on a break below 3890, 3878, 3859, or 3833 with a 9-point trailing stop.  Models indicate no explicit short exits or long exits for today.

SPX Model Trading Plans for WED. 03/08Fed Fight Fatigue/Reality to Set In Soon? Markets are still trying hard to get unstuck from the Fed Fight and move on in some clear direction. Despite the apparently big moves and volatility and Fed events, the markets are just where they were in 2nd/3rd week of January! Double check the S&P 500 Index close on Jan 8th-12th, and you can see it. There is no clear directionality to the markets - not as of now. The increasingly bearish positioning from the retail traders could be pointing to a potential spike up to hunt their stops and/or take out their leveraged positions before any real directionality could set in. Both the bulls and the bears need to be nimble if they want to wade into these markets - a safer option could be to be on the sidelines until the dust settles. Positional Trading Models: Our positional models are indicating to stay on the sidelines for the day.

Nevertheless, for those of you who MUST trade (professional trader? addicted trader? whatever may be your reason), models indicate the below trading plans.  For today, our aggressive intraday models indicate going long on a break above 4012, 3995, or 3984 with a 9-point trailing stop, and going short on a break below 4009, 3990, or 3980 with a 9-point trailing stop.  Models indicate explicit short exits on a break above 3969, and long exits on a break below 4025. Models also indicate a break-even hard stop once a trade gets into a 4-point profit level. Models indicate taking these signals from 11:15am ET or later.

SPX Model Trading Plans for THU. 03/02The Fed Failing to Scare Inflation Off This morning's initial jobless claims and productivity numbers show that the Fed is failing to scare off inflation, and the yields continue to rise. However, the increasingly bearish retail traders' positioning points to the potential for an upside spike. Thus, while the trend is downwards, bears need to be extremely nimble as there is a risk of sudden upside spikes due to retail stop runs by the big boys. Positional Trading Models: Our positional models are indicating to stay on the sidelines for the day. By definition, positional trading models may carry the positions overnight and over multiple days, and hence assume trading an instrument that trades beyond the regular session, with the trailing stops - if any - being active in the overnight session. Intraday/Aggressive Models: Our aggressive, intraday models indicate the trading plans below for today. Trading Plans for THU. 03/02: Aggressive Intraday Models: For today, our aggressive intraday models indicate going long on a break above 3970, 3952, or 3923  with a 9-point trailing stop, and going short on a break below 3949, 3939, or 3920 with a 9-point trailing stop.  Models indicate explicit long exits on a break below 3967, and short exits on a break above 3943. Models also indicate a break-even hard stop once a trade gets into a 4-point profit level. Models indicate taking these signals from 09:31am ET or later.

SPX Model Trading Plans for TUE. 02/28Inflation and Rising Yields The rising yields and inflation concerns still a big hang over on the markets. However, the increasingly bearish retail traders' positioning indicates to a potential for upside spike.
