Weekly Analysis 12/18After a crazy, news heavy week, I expect price to begin bullish, and end bearish. Next week, we have the Consumer Confidence, GDP, and PCE releases. It will be interesting to see if we do in fact see a santa rally to finish the year off. In ICT fashion, I expect the high of week to be made on tuesday / wednesday.

New SPY Cycle Patterns Headed Into Christmas 2022Pay attention to the very real possibility that the current GAP will be filled early this week as price attempts to find a base/bottom after last week's selling.
I expect moderate volatility and a change of trend as we move closer to Christmas. Initially, we'll see some moderate downward price pressure, then we'll see a shift upward near the end of this week.

NQ with Head and Shoulders Pattern Identified on the 4H CME_MINI:NQ1! A Head and Shoulders pattern was identified on the 4H timeframe. This pattern was identified in confluence with a bear flag pattern on the 1H timeframe. Price then broke just below the flag. I believe that NQ will see more downside. After I zoomed out further, I noticed that we spiked from a demand zone November 10, 2022. Perhaps NQ will retrace back to where it spiked from on November 10, 2022. A screenshot is provided below for your review.

$MNQ Are you ready to HATE this rally?Everyone is bearish tech AFTER a 30% decline and just in time for the birth of the next great narrative: THE AI MEGATREND. This is arguably as important to future growth as the smartphone. It sounds crazy now, but think on it for a bit and I bet it starts to make sense.
If you are shorting tech HERE, only God can help you. REPENT and ride this HATED RALLY to NASDAQ 20K.

US Stocks are about to EXPLODE higher. Here we goThe reflation trade in the US stock market (Wave-5) is about to explode above the GREEN resistance line.
Far too many people continue to believe the US markets will collapse on some Fed/Economic crisis event. What they don't understand is the US is in a different position right now.
Yes, deflation trends may continue for REAL ASSETS (homes, cars, commodities, others), but as long as the US economy continues to tick along (employment, wages, consumers), billions of dollars every month flow into IRAs, 401Ks, and other investment assets.
This is what I call the "economic bias" related to money flow and US dollar depreciation. Over time, the natural process of the US/global economy is to GROW - not CONTRACT.
Therefore, we need to be prepared for a reflation trade (similar to 2003-05 when the US markets move upward after the 9/11 event).

ES support @ 4018 now becomes critical trigger levelThis big rotation to the upside, after the CPI number, presents a new $4018 support level on the ES for traders.
The Fed rate decision tomorrow may send markets briefly below this level, but watch for a reflation trade to setup after the Fed comments.
If my research is correct, a melt-up trend has already been established. I expect the US Dollar to melt back above 105 while Gold and Silver continue to melt upward as well.
The US markets may continue this upward trend into Q1:2023.

A new high in QQQ, no new high in NQ1!, and skepticismYesterday, prices rose across the board, with Nasdaq 100 index rising almost 5%. This move came amid a dovish interpretation of Jerome Powell’s speech by the market. As a result, the abrupt price action invalidated our assumptions about the potential top of the bear market rally.
Illustration 1.01
The daily chart of QQQ is displayed above. The yellow arrow indicates the invalidation of our early assumptions about the potential top for the bear market rally.
However, Nasdaq 100 continuous futures (NQ1!) failed to break above the immediate support/resistance and did not constitute a new high. That makes us skeptical about the new high in QQQ. Therefore, to entirely invalidate our earlier assumptions, we would like to see invalidation also in NQ1!.
Illustration 1.02
Illustration 1.02 shows the daily chart of NQ1!. The yellow arrow shows no invalidation in NQ1!.
At the moment, we will wait and see. If NQ1! breaks to the upside and holds above the immediate support/resistance, it will bolster the case for rally continuation. As a result, it will force us to abandon our price target of 270$.

Nasdaq: Santa Baby 🎁If Santa fulfills our wishlist this year, Nasdaq should sink into the orange target zone to hit the bottom of the orange wave ii, before heading back North to surpass the resistance at 12 145 points and continue the upwards slope. Should Nasdaq carry on with the downward trend and cross the support line at 10 636 points, it would activate our alternative scenario, where the course should sink further to finish the green wave alt. .

SPY Cycle Patterns For Dec 12, 2022 - More sideways melt-up.Here are the SPY Cycle Patterns for this week.
Expect more sideways melt-up trending as we head into the Fed rate decision and key economic data.
Traders will start to shift into early 2023 expectations this week (after the Fed). Check out my other posts.
The markets are not expecting anything extraordinary right now - more of the same.
The Fed rate decision will likely come in between 50pb and 75pb (as expected).
All of this has been BAKED INTO the markets already.
I can tell you what I'm seeing out here in So. Cal... Shoppers EVERYWHERE. Traffic is a mess. Lots of our of state cars everywhere. Malls and shopping centers seem packed.
From what I can see, Q4:2022 will probably stay very solid for retail and online shopping. Unless there is some catalyst to BREAK the markets, US stocks should slide into 2023 with fairly strong expectations.

Below 11400 will bring 11200 as next target.

-Price above 200MA
-looking fro buys
-a lot of retail traders have this area on the chart so I would
be a little concerned about that and could see price go below.
+ price has been going nowhere but up for 45 days so a pullback is healthy.
-Need to see lower timeframe confirmation.
