VXX (VIX ETN) hints yet again of increasing volatilityRushing this out before market opens...
The VIX index is rather special (to me) and it is not feasible to use usual technical analysis on that chart IMHO. So, I use the VXX (VIX ETN) for a better idea when volatility spikes might occur. Am observing one just now with an apparent alignment of weekly adn daily factors in the charts.
On the weekly chart, noted that there was previously a bullish divergence where the VXX kept going lower whilst the MACD (left lowest bottom panel) crept up. Noted that when we had the MACD crossover, the following week(s) come with volatility spikes. There is an early indication that we might see a MACD crossover this or next week, suggesting that August would be volatile. The candlestick formed last week gapped up, attempted to close the gap, but closed at the high. This is a rather bullish candlestick, and an identified wedge breakout just might happen this week.
The daily chart uncannily bears (pun not intended) a similar pattern, but with more details, as the last day of last week closed in a similar looking candlestick, along with a gap up (that attempted to close and reopened), as well as a MACD crossover. These MACD crossovers in 2022 have been marked, last posted about this on 12 Feb 2022, which saw a period of higher volatility. Then formed the identified wedge, and bouncing off the wdge support twice, this time, it suggests that volatility is about to spike, and would probably breakout of the wedge.
Taken together, this uncanny alignment forewarns of clear and present volatility for the weeks to follow...
Having said that, I suspect that this is might be a short and sharp spike that could end the bearish status for a couple of months until we get into 2023. That's another discussion altogether.
Meanwhile, hold on to your pants, be ready for the volatility storms!

SPY - How to project fear if it had a number...A special today... I just saw this and thought it was a good opportunity to show how I use Fibonacci and geometric symmetry to help do some projections.
Here are the steps for the SPY hourly charts currently...
1. Draw a Fibo retracement from the last high (22/7) to the last low (22/7)
2. Note that the rebound (currently) only got to the 0.5 (50%) Fibo retracement level. So, we expect and extension to the 1.5 (150%) level.
3. Draw an arrow line from the high to the low, duplicate it and shift it across to the last lower high, from the 50% retracement level (white Fibo retracement drawing). This is the rough estimation and extension.
4. In an opposing manner, draw the next Fibo retracement from the low on 14/7 to the high on 22/7. Clearly, this retracement is in the opposing direction, extension to the upside. This is the grey Fibo retracement.
5. Note how the confluence of the 0.618 (61.8% / 62%) level coincides and aligns with the opposing 50% Fib level? This confluence should increase the likelihood and significance of this support/resistance level.
6. Circle the spot. That is where it should happen. Usually it is an early estimate. For more accuracy, you can use Gann fans to help in determining the time lines forward. I find this useful.
Ta-da! Now we wait to see what happens over the next two days or so...
Have fun and do leave a comment if this is helpful, or just appears nonsense to you. Ask any question if you'd like!
First time I am doing something like this... hope you all enjoy it!
Cheers!

SPX 500 index analytics: Growth potential to 4100 remains. Analyst of the spx 500 index on 07/19/22 Today we are here to talk about the SPX 500 index
What's on the market now:
The index is trading at 3830. The market has been in a sideways correction for the last 2 weeks, but I think this stabilization will end in the near future.
In the last trading session, we saw a small correction of the last growth, which began on July 14th. I believe that the current correction will not be long and the upward movement will continue in the near future.
What I'm waiting for:
I maintain a positive view of the market and expect it to move towards the level of 4100. At the same time, my trading recommendations remain unchanged.
What I recommend:
If you want to go short:
Short positions are prohibited.
If you want to buy:
Market buys are possible, but limit your losses.
If you are not in the market:
If you want to buy, you can buy from the market, but limit your losses. The market is developing a steady upward movement, which I spoke about earlier. However, as we can see, not all market participants support the uptrend. But in the coming days it will be decided.

What's on the market now:
The index is trading at 3825. In the last trading session, the market began to move up, but in essence the market has stabilized.

What I recommend:
If you want to go short:
Short positions are prohibited.
If you want to buy:
You can enter the market, but there remains the possibility of a sharp downward movement of the index.
If you are not in the market:
If you are out of the market. I recommend that you try to go short around 4125.

S&P500 Delayed rebound but not out of woodsLast weekend's review, it was expected that the S&P500 would follow through with a bullish week. Instead, it was quite the opposite, until the late part of Friday that the upticks started. This could have been attributed to the end of the quarter, half year sell-off by portfolio managers, just a possible consideration.
This week's price action was clearly not enough to close the week (and month) in positive territory, however, it appears that a possible higher low is being formed. This is the first indication that there is a lower probability for a bear trap.
Technical indicators for the weekly have yet to turn, and a couple more weeks might be needed for that. The daily technicals have already started to turn up... perhaps the incoming week would be be clearing up the technical fog. Looking for the higher high.
Meanwhile, do look into the monthly chart. The major downtrend is still in force, and there is a large range of movement in the daily ranges.
Take care!
SXP500 Index: Big game ahead. Are you ready?Today we are here to talk about the SPX 500 index
What's on the market now:
The index is trading at 3818. In the previous trading session, we saw price stabilization. However, in my opinion, although the correction actually took place from the last local maximum, the correction has not yet reached its local bottom in the region of 3780 - 3750.
Today we are waiting:
Today, I expect the market to decline to the 3780 - 3750 zone. We may see an increase in the market decline, but if the market can turn around and the correction is broken, then the market will continue to rise to the level of 4050.
What I recommend:
If you want to go short:
It is too early to open short positions now, it is better to open them from the level of 4050, limit your losses.
If you want to buy:
It is better to refuse to buy the index and stocks now, the index has not yet reached its bottom in the region of 3750 - 3700.
If there is a positive mood in the market from the level of 3750 - 3700, then you can buy, limiting your losses.
If you are not in the market:
If you are out of the market. I recommend that you try to go short around 4050. But if you want to buy, then I recommend that you go long from the 3700 level. Remember to always limit your losses.

SXP500 Index: Reversal of the 3750 - will it be?Today we are here to talk about the SPX 500 index
Today: The index is trading at 3821 and in the last trading session we saw the development of the correction I talked about earlier. Here is a link to the idea.
Today at the beginning of the trading day I expect the stabilization of the movement, and then the subsequent movement of the price to the level of 3735 - 3700. I believe that the market has dropped to the zone 3750 and there will try to turn to 40 00. However, if the market of this level, further market movement in the zone 3550 - 3480 is possible.
Today we are waiting for:
Today, as yesterday, I expect the market to decline in the zone 3780 - 3750, but if this trend is broken, the market will continue to grow to the level of 4050-4000
What I recommend:
If you want to open the short:
It is better to open short positions from the level of 4010 - 4050, but limit your losses.
If you want to buy:
Buying is too risky now. However, if the market is a positive scenario, you can enter the market from the level of 3750 - 3700.
If you are not in the market:
If you are out of market. I recommend you open short positions from the level of 4010 - 40 50. But if you want to buy, I recommend you to open a long position from the level of 37 00.

Today: The index is trading at 3911 and we saw a sharp rise yesterday. During the last trading session, the market moved into the expected zone at the level of 3850 and consolidated significantly above it. Here is a link to the idea.
Today: I expect the development of a correction in the market and price stabilization. However, if this does not happen and there is a positive mood in the market, then the level of 4050 will become the closest zone to a reversal.

I continue to hold a short position from 3850 and advise everyone to limit your losses.

S&P500 bullish week expectedThe last week saw a reversal of the previous week, with the weekly candle recovering all the previous week's losses and closing decisively above the gap resistance. From a weekly chart perspective, the following week would be bullish.
The daily chart similarly shows that the bullishness came from the last day of the week ( instead of mid-week as expected ). Nonetheless, the MACD crossed over bullish.
Expecting a bullish follow through for the week ahead and this must break and stay above 4120; ideally to recover above 4300, and meet the 4425 bullish trend change resistance. Would be wary and watch these resistance levels...

2) Channel rejection for possible short
3) Test of 3706/3800 and finds support = long
Weekly: Low vol up bar close at high = caution, possible weakness + reversal pattern
