Bearish Outlook for VX1!Bearish Post Description for TradingView
Title: Bearish Outlook on VIX Futures - Time to Brace for a Pullback!
Hey traders, take a look at this VIX Futures chart (CBOE Volatility Index - VX1 Futures) published by FairValueBuffet on TradingView (Mar 10, 2025, 20:58 UTC). The technicals are screaming caution, and here’s why:
- Supply/Demand Zone Breakdown: We’ve hit a critical supply zone (highlighted in yellow) with a sharp spike, suggesting heavy selling pressure. The price action is showing rejection at this level, hinting at a potential reversal.
- Moving Averages: The 18-week and 52-week SMAs are converging, with the price breaking below the shorter-term SMA, reinforcing bearish momentum.
- Bearish Divergence: The RSI and Williams %R at the bottom show clear bearish divergence. Despite a price spike, the momentum indicators are declining, indicating weakening bullish strength.
- Seasonality Indicator: The bottom-right seasonality chart (COT data for VX Futures) shows a historical tendency for volatility spikes around this time, often followed by a correction.
With the VIX jumping to 24.700 and a volume of 137.66K, coupled with the bearish technical setup, I’m anticipating a pullback in the near term. Keep an eye on the 20.000 support level—failure to hold could see us testing lower grounds. Let’s stay cautious and consider short opportunities or hedging strategies!

Bullish Case for S&P 500 - Fundamental Perspective
While the VIX chart suggests short-term volatility, the broader S&P 500 presents a compelling bullish case based on fundamentals as of March 10, 2025. Here’s why we might see upside potential:
- Economic Resilience: Recent data points to robust corporate earnings growth, with many S&P 500 companies exceeding Q4 2024 expectations. This earnings strength supports a sustained rally.
- Interest Rate Outlook: The Federal Reserve has signaled a dovish stance, with potential rate cuts on the horizon. Lower interest rates typically boost equity valuations, especially for growth stocks in the S&P 500.
- Gold and Bonds Correlation: The chart shows a dip in gold prices and bond yields stabilizing, which historically correlates with risk-on sentiment. This could drive capital back into equities, favoring the S&P 500.
- Market Sentiment: Despite short-term volatility (as seen in the VIX), investor confidence remains high, supported by strong consumer spending and improving global trade conditions.
Given these fundamentals, the S&P 500 could be poised for a bullish run, especially if volatility subsides and the 18-week SMA on the VIX chart starts to flatten. Consider long positions or adding exposure if the market holds key support levels. Stay tuned for confirmation!

Start of bearish cycle for equities $SPXSP:SPX confirming trend reversal on high time frame as it attempts to breach the 50 weekly MA for the first time since the start of the 2022 bear market. Macroeconomic environment is full of uncertainty and recession signals, with POTUS Trump openly confirming that some short term pain in assets is needed for the US economy to reset and go on a better path forward.
S&P500: Broke its 1W MA50 after 17 months. Recovery or collapse?The S&P500 turned oversold on its 1D technical outlook (RSI = 29.430, MACD = -85.410, ADX = 51.223) as it breached today its 1W MA50 for the first time since the week of October 30th 2023, i.e. almost 1.5 year. That was a week of a very aggressive recovery after a Channel Up correction, with the bullish sequence reaching 9 straight green weeks. With the 1D RSI ovesold and the 1W RSI almost on the 39.15 Support, which was the low of the October 23rd 2023 1W candle, the index couldn't have been technically on a better long term buy spot.
Needless to say, the market can't rise if the fundamentals are against it and right now the geopolitical tensions and more importantly the trade war isn't helping. If the index does find a positive catalyst to take advantage of, then the bullish technicals of the Channel Up bottom will prevail, and this week's candle may resemble the Max Pain 1W candle under the 1W MA50 of October 23rd 2023. Even if it doesn't rise as high as the 2.382 Fibonacci extension of that rally, we would expect in that instance a 2.0 Fib extension rally like the post August 2024 bullish wave (TP = 6,700). Failure to find support this week though, will most likely result in further collapse (even more aggressively so) to the 1W MA100.

S&P 500 Breakdown at Key Support LevelThe S&P 500 is showing clear signs of technical weakness as it breaks below a key support level around 5,675, coinciding with the 200-day EMA. This breakdown follows a rejection at 6,130, a recent high that established a resistance zone.
With the index now trading below the 50-day EMA, downside risks are increasing. If the 5,668 level fails to hold, further declines toward the next major support zone could materialize. Traders will be watching for a potential retest of broken support as resistance before determining the next move.
Key Levels to Watch:
📉 Support: 5,668
📈 Resistance: 6,130

Still Bearish, Still Grinding – Patience Remains the KeyStill Bearish, Still Grinding – Patience Remains the Key | SPX Market Analysis 10 Mar 2025
Another week, another grinding bearish move—but are we truly breaking down, or is this just another market head-fake?
Friday gave us a tease of a breakdown, only to bounce right back into the range by the close. The overnight futures are dipping slightly, but we’re not yet below last week’s lows, meaning the bears haven’t fully taken control—yet.
The scenarios remain unchanged, the bias is still bearish, and patience remains the best strategy. We’re watching for confirmation—because in this kind of slow-motion market, forcing a trade only leads to frustration.
---
Deeper Dive Analysis:
The market is playing the ultimate waiting game, and traders are getting impatient. It’s been grinding lower, teasing a real breakdown, only to snap back into the range by the week’s end. It’s like watching a boxer throw a knockout punch—only for the opponent to wobble, but never hit the canvas.
The bearish move is still intact, but it’s moving in slow motion. It’s not a dramatic crash, but a controlled decline, inching lower each day.
📌 Friday’s Tease – The Breakdown That Wasn’t
The market attempted a decisive break lower but failed to hold.
By the close, price had bounced back into the range, leaving traders confused.
This type of fake breakdown is what traps emotional traders, forcing them to chase moves that never materialize.
📌 Overnight Futures – More of the Same?
Futures dipped slightly, but last week’s lows remain unbroken.
A real downside continuation requires price to actually commit below key levels.
For now, it’s just more of the same slow-motion grind.
📌 The Bearish Bias is Still in Play – But It Needs Confirmation
The larger descending channel is still guiding price lower.
The bias remains bearish, but conviction is lacking.
If the market doesn’t break soon, we could see another bounce-back-to-nowhere scenario.
📌 The Plan – Stay Hedged, Stay Patient
No need to force a position—the market hasn’t fully committed.
Let the range confirm a direction before taking on new risk.
Stay ready—because once the move happens, it could be fast.
Right now, the market is whispering, not shouting. The traders who listen to what price is actually doing, rather than what they want it to do, will be the ones who capitalize when the next real move arrives. 🚀📉

SPX: the “kangaroo” marketSince the establishment of financial markets there has been a market separation on bullish and bearish markets. Traders just invented the third option called the kangaroo market, in an attempt to describe recent developments of price movements. It refers to rare development of the price movements when the price of an asset goes strongly in one direction and then returns back to a starting position, all within one single trading day. It also reflects the level of uncertainty that is currently evident. The S&P 500 continues to be in a correction mood. The index was struggling to sustain the 6K level, however, the price moves from the previous week are showing that the market is slowly losing nerves. The worst week since September is behind, as analysts noted. On Monday, the index tried for one more time to reach the 6K resistance, and then finally reverted to the downside. The lowest weekly level was at 5.670, which was the last time traded in July 2024, while a total weekly loss accounts for 3,1%.
Jobs report posted on Friday, brought figures which were lower from market expectation, with a 151K in NFPs. The unemployment rate was also higher by 1pp, ending the month at 4,1%. This is not a good sign for the economy, adding to its high uncertainty over US Administration trade tariffs. Currently, trade tariffs are playing a crucial role when it comes to market sentiment. In this sense, the negative sentiment might continue, but unfortunately, also the kangaroo moves. The market is trying to find new grounds, which might take some time.
Bearish Outlook for US500: Watching 5,200 SupportAfter testing support at the end of February, the US500 fell below this key level at the start of March, signaling the potential for a deeper correction.
In my view, this scenario is likely, and any rebound this week could present a good selling opportunity for speculators.
My target for this correction is the 5,200 support zone. A stabilization above 6,000 would invalidate this outlook.

Validation of a long term top in the SPX continues to playballLast week I posted an update on my SPX cash index analysis...found below.
At the end of last week, we see where the price action has been filling in nicely as of Friday. Some key take-a-ways. First, is the price action has breached the area that I am counting as the wave 4 of one lesser degree. This would be an initial clue that the bull market pattern that started back in August of last year is cracking. This would be the area that I am counting as the intermediate wave (4). I am forecasting this recent price action down is the Minor A wave of the beginning of a stair stepped decline that has a high probability of coming back into that area of the August 2024 lows after we retrace higher in a minor B wave, labeled in Red.
What's important about price coming back into this area of approximately 5121-4950 is this the area that price could hold and manage a higher high, essentially meaning that my count is off by one degree...and what I am counting as a wave (III) super-cycle top will get pushed out to end of 2025-2026. However, to breach this area even incrementally, would provide much the same clues we're getting now, about price breaching the minor wave 4 of one lesser degree.
Below this must hold area, is where my forecast of a super-cycle wave (III) gets confirmation...until then we look for clues of validation...but confirmation does not come until price cane breach this area. To breach this area would reflect in price action that resembles the below.
SPX Is About to Explode – Here’s What I’m WatchingSPX is at a critical level, and whichever way it breaks, the move could be huge. Here’s my take:
If we drop below 5663, I see a move down to 5534 – 5445. If that zone fails, we could head toward 5332, and if selling pressure keeps up, 5234 might be next.
But if we break above 5800, the bulls could take over, pushing to 5972, and maybe even 6149.
It’s all about reaction levels now. I’m watching these zones closely—what’s your take? Are we heading up or breaking down?

S&P500 1week MA50 test is the last before the Cycle tops.S&P500 / US500 tested this week its 1week MA50 successfully as the price almost touched it and rebounded.
We have seen this kind of behavior in the last 9-12 months before a Bull Cycle tops.
In fact with the 1week RSI trending downwards on a bearish divergence, today's price action looks more similar to the October 13 2014 1week MA50 fakeout, which was breached marginally but rebounded immediately.
Based on that, a 6500 Cycle Top target by October 2025 is very much realistic.

Tariff Wars, NFP & Range-Bound Markets – What’s Next? Tariff Wars, NFP & Range-Bound Markets – What’s Next? | SPX Market Analysis 07 Mar 2025
The market is acting like a drunk sailor, stumbling between a sideways range and a downsloping channel, leaving traders scratching their heads and redrawing trendlines daily.
If this feels frustrating, welcome to the real evolution of price action—the part nobody talks about.
Traders love to show off the perfect trade after it happens, but the real challenge is navigating price movement as it unfolds. One day, it’s a range, the next, it’s a channel, and by the time you’ve figured it out, the market’s already moved on.
For now, I remain hedged and in a no-lose position, watching how this range resolves.With Trump pulling a 2018-style tariff play, and NFP looming, we could be in for a big move soon—or just more of the same slow churn.
Either way, I’ll be ready when the market finally decides to commit.
---
Price action is in full “make up its mind later” mode, bouncing between a short-term range and what could evolve into a downsloping channel.
The only certainty? Traders who force trades in this mess will get chewed up.
The problem with trendlines and pattern analysis is that they’re constantly evolving. One day, it looks like a clean range, the next, it’s a slanted consolidation, and suddenly, what looked like a breakout yesterday is just noise today.
This is why I never rely on one rigid framework—instead, I follow my six money-making patterns that adapt as price action develops.
At the moment, I see three scenarios playing out.
If price respects the range, we get a bounce toward the highs.
If it breaks the range, we could see a sharp downside continuation.
And if we keep drifting in no-man’s land, then it’s just more of the same.
Forcing trades when the market hasn’t committed is a recipe for frustration.
Thankfully, I don’t need to guess.
My hedge is holding firm, keeping me in a no-lose position while the market sorts itself out. I’m not eagerly adding trades or picking a direction yet—I’m waiting for the market to show its hand first.
Meanwhile, in tariff news, Trump just announced a temporary removal of tariffs under the USMCA agreement until April 2nd.
If this feels like déjà vu, that’s because it is.
The market is mirroring the 2018-19 trade war, where even in a declining market, we saw strong rallies. No two market cycles are ever exactly the same, but they do tend to rhyme.
So, will NFP be the trigger that finally kicks this market into gear?
Or will we be stuck with another day of watching paint dry on the charts?
Either way, I’ll stay patient, stay hedged, and be ready for when the next real move arrives.

📢Did you know? In 1987, a trader at Salomon Brothers coined the phrase “Dead Cat Bounce” to describe a brief market rally during a larger downturn. The idea? Even a dead cat will bounce if dropped from high enough.
💡The Lesson? Short-term rallies don’t always mean the trend has changed—a bounce isn’t the same as a recovery.
Combined US Indexes - Breakdown and JittersMarked out previously, the US indexes broke down a tad earlier and retested to fail only to drop further based on jitters and jitter-induced expectations.
While the candlestick is long and solid pretty much, there is an extension zone to expect more of the downside to overreach and be oversold before a bounce.
You should be able to see that the Buy Setup is pretty much done and can expect a bounce reversal soon... but only after momentum ebbs and a base support is found.
Watch for it...

S&P500: Potential Channel Up rebound on the 1D MA200.S&P500 is bearish on its 1D technical outlook (RSI = 34.564, MACD = -60.140, ADX = 38.870) as it unfolded the bearish wave of the long term Channel Up. The sequence has hit its 1D MA200 though, which is the major Support on this timeframe and being also the bottom of the Channel Up, we should be expecting a rebound. The first bearish wave of the Channel Up surpassed the 1.382 Fibonacci extension, so that is a valid technical target. The trade is long, TP = 6,300.

Markets Bouncing Like Gummy Bears – What’s Next?Markets Bouncing Like Gummy Bears – What’s Next? | SPX Market Analysis 06Mar 2025
The market is bouncing around like a gummy bear on gummy juice—up one day, down the next, sometimes both in the same session. But now, a short-term price range is forming, making trade setups much clearer.
This new range, which is easier to see on ES futures, aligns perfectly with my 6 money-making patterns, guiding bullish, bearish, and neutral scenarios. ADD is at an upper extreme, overnight futures are selling off, and we have tariff wars & red flag news on deck—so patience continues to rule the day. The market is setting up for its next big move, and I’ll be ready when it fires.
---
Deeper Dive Analysis:
The markets continue to whipsaw traders, creating choppy and indecisive price action. But amidst the chaos, a short-term range is forming, providing clearer trade setups based on my 6 money-making patterns.
📌 The Market Setup – A Tight Range is Emerging
A short-term, well-defined price range is forming (visible on ES futures)
This creates clear "what to do" signals based on my system
Three possible scenarios:
Bullish breakout – if buyers take control
Bearish breakdown – if sellers push through support
Neutral range-bound action – if price continues to chop around
📌 Key Market Observations Today
ADD is at an upper relative extreme – signalling a possible short-term pullback
Price is near the upper boundary of the range – a natural resistance level
Overnight futures are already selling off – adding to the bearish bias
📌 What Could Trigger the Next Big Move?
Tariff wars unfolding – potential for market-moving headlines
Red flag news this month – major economic reports could act as a catalyst
Markets at a tipping point – just waiting for the right push
📌 How I’m Trading This:
✅ Hedged for movement in either direction—no need to predict, just react
✅ Waiting for confirmation before making a move—patience wins
✅ Watching for breakouts or failures at range extremes
This is a textbook setup—range-bound markets lead to breakouts, and I’ll be ready to capitalize on the move when it comes.

📢 Did you know? In 2009, a Twitter hoax claiming President Obama was injured caused the S&P 500 to drop 1% in minutes, wiping out billions in market value—before bouncing back when the truth came out.
