SPX500 Head & Shoulders PatternEIGHTCAP:SPX500 Looks very clean Head & Shoulders Pattern developing. A **Head and Shoulders** pattern is a well-known technical analysis formation that often signals a potential trend reversal from bullish to bearish. It consists of three main parts: a higher peak (head) surrounded by two lower peaks (shoulders) on either side. The neckline connects the lows of the two troughs between the peaks.
A **failed Head and Shoulders pattern** occurs when the expected trend reversal doesn't materialize as anticipated. In this scenario, the price doesn't continue downward after the completion of the pattern, defying the usual bearish implication. Instead, the price might continue its previous trend or move in an unexpected direction.
Several factors could contribute to the failure of a Head and Shoulders pattern:
1. **Lack of Volume**: Patterns are more reliable when accompanied by higher trading volumes during their formation. A lack of significant volume might weaken the pattern's predictive power.
2. **Market Sentiment Shift**: If there's a sudden shift in market sentiment or unexpected news that contradicts the pattern's implication, the pattern might fail to deliver the anticipated reversal.
3. **False Breakout**: The price might break below the neckline briefly, triggering a false bearish signal, but then quickly reverse and continue the previous upward trend.
4. **Timeframe Consideration**: The pattern's effectiveness can vary based on the timeframe it appears in. Patterns on shorter timeframes might be less reliable than those on longer timeframes.
5. **Price Volatility**: Excessive volatility could lead to erratic price movements, causing the pattern to lose its predictive value.
6. **Unusual Market Conditions**: Extraordinary events, such as government interventions or major economic shifts, could disrupt the pattern's typical behavior.
Investors and traders should exercise caution when interpreting technical patterns, as they are not foolproof predictors of future price movements. A failed pattern serves as a reminder that market behavior can be complex and influenced by a multitude of factors. It's crucial to consider additional technical indicators, fundamental analysis, and broader market context when making trading decisions.
My Case For NO 1929 Style (Economic Collapse) + Super Bubble
I see many many articles circulating the similarities of the 1929 "Super Bubble" and see almost all the information is very miss leading and not accurate at all.
We can see the DJI compared to the SPY today is dangerously similar at face value. Enough for anyone with basics to be very nervous about this.
Each cycle has a 1st bubble followed by a 2nd bubble then ending with a gigantic 3rd melt up.
But the truth? we need to take the (CURRCIR) (Currency in Circulation)
as a proxy for the US M2 / M3 for the early 1900s
What we see is there was no debasement "Quantitative Easing" almost no new currency growth meaning it was all leverage based on air. Only after 1930s did we see currency growth.
Fast forward to 1999-2023
We see even before Quantitative Easing (Currency in Circulation) started an uptrend in 2004 going parabolic after 2008. Meaning the "Super Bubble" people are betting shorting right now is completely based on false information. Yes they are all wrong so is most retail.
2023
Adjust the SPY/USM2 supply we see a resistance trend going back to 2002 being hit 5 times, this means the debasement is acceleration coming back stronger every time.
There's a chance something insane will happen where markets will go parabolic almost triple or quadruple the 1929 "Super Bubble"
This will begin when the FRED has to cut or hold rates.
Reserve Banks forced to cut rates due to debt interest (government).
(Global M2 by math will go parabolic) this will flow back into companies / growth stocks.
Bond Yields there's a chance they will not lower and most of the money gets captured by hard asset / growth markets, this includes Bitcoin / Gold.
My thought process here is for the final "Super Bubble" to form from all this debt interest and monetary easing we have to see a blow off top in the SPY/USM2 chart, and you can guess it if the SPY makes all time highs soon while the FRED is planning to cut rates you're going to have all the (Money Market Funds) capital flow back into the stock market, there's currently trillions in short term US bonds meaning anyone purchasing TLT expecting a play for Bond Yields to fall are going to get this very wrong too (unless YCC happens for US Bonds)
So has the bubble busted? based on the math it has just begun we could be in the 1927 stage.
Steep Dive Ahead?Here is the path if Intermediate wave 3 began after the first hour of trading on August 10. Not only are we possible in the early stages of Minor wave 3 which should see drastic movements, we are nearly in Minute wave 3 of Minor wave 3 which should see a large drop. A midday drop is less likely so this could really be felt with a gap down on Wednesday. Intermediate wave 3 is slated to last 30 to 65 hours which would place the end into later next week. Potential bottoms for Minor wave 3 are on the left and levels for Intermediate wave 3 are on the right. All levels are based on historical data and specific wave nomenclature. A strong amount of models are looking for Minor wave 3 to end below 4400 within the next 2 days, while Intermediate wave 3 is slated to go below 4350 before next Friday. We shall see if this theory plays out as the other ones are almost completely ruled out at this point.

$SPY Daily Charthe AMEX:SPY is still in a parallel uptrend. The trend line has been in place since March 2023, and it has helped to support the stock market during periods of volatility. If the trend line breaks, the next support level will be at the 150-day moving average. This is a key level to watch, as a break below it could signal a more significant decline in the stock market.
However, it is important to remember that the stock market is cyclical, and it is normal for there to be periods of volatility. The AMEX:SPY has been in an uptrend for the past year, and it is possible that the trend line will continue to hold. If the trend line does break, it is important to stay calm and to not panic sell. Instead, you should wait for the stock market to find a bottom and then start buying again.
Uncertainty spreads among investors as they await more dataIn the aftermath of the latest Federal Reserve (FED) meeting and subsequent 25 basis points rate hike, SPX has been experiencing fluctuating price action, oscillating primarily between $4,520 and $4,600. This range-bound activity could indicate investors’ caution as they grapple with the implications of the FED's policy changes and monitor the incoming economic data to ascertain the overall market direction. Today, we will get an update on S&P Global Manufacturing PMI, ISM Manufacturing PMI, ISM Manufacturing Employment, and JOLTs Job Openings (note that we are not listing every data release, only ones important to us). On Thursday, we will get more information on initial jobless claims, S&P Global Services PMI, S&P Global Composite PMI, and ISM Services PMI. Then finally, on Friday, the unemployment rate and non-farm payrolls are scheduled to come out. We will wait for these figures and reassess our views accordingly.

The picture above shows the daily chart of SPX. Yellow arrows indicate the divergence between the price and technical indicators MACD and RSI; in addition to that, on the MACD’s graph, the signal line can be seen breaking above the MACD line, which is slightly bearish (but it could still be only a fakeout). Therefore, we will monitor these two indicators in the following days for any signs of a potential trend reversal.

FrogAlgo: USA Economy💥It is important to understand that the US economy represents approximately 25% of the global GDP, despite having just 334 million people, which is around 4.25% of the global population. This context is crucial for comprehending various narratives prevalent in media and politics. Here are a few examples to illustrate this point 🧵:
♦️China, with 1.45 billion people (18.5% of the global population), contributes $18 trillion (18%) to the global GDP.
♦️India, with 1.4 billion people (18% of the global population), generates $3.4 trillion (3%) of the global GDP.
♦️Russia, with 146 million people (1.87% of the global population), produces $2 trillion (1.9%) of the global GDP.
💥When the BRICS nations (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa) are combined, their 3.3 billion people (43% of the global population) contribute $26 trillion (26%) to the global GDP.
💥Despite the large population of the BRICS nations, their economic output barely matches that of the 334 million Americans. However, it would actually be beneficial for the US if the BRICS nations were to increase their GDP. As these 3.3 billion people become wealthier, they would become potential customers for American high-end goods and services. Consequently, the US would see increased profits. It is worth noting that the US dollar would strengthen in such a scenario, considering the 334 million Americans would have significantly more affluent customers to cater to.
💥Comparatively, Russia's 1.9% share of the global GDP pales in comparison to the US's 25% share. This is also true when considering the collective economic power of the 32 NATO member nations or the 50 countries supporting Ukraine. By engaging in actions detrimental to its own economy, such as the annexation of Crimea or involvement in Ukraine, Russia's leadership, under Putin, has effectively committed economic suicide on behalf of its people. This situation has created a humanitarian crisis without any tangible benefits for Russia. Even if Russia were to conquer Ukraine and the former Soviet bloc, the strategy of scorched earth is not conducive to maintaining a healthy and vibrant economy.
💥These examples serve to demonstrate how understanding this piece of information can help individuals better contextualize and discern between the plethora of narratives, whether accurate or unfounded, that circulate constantly in various domains.
S&P 500, 6/23/23For Friday, 4467.50 can contain session strength, below which the market remains the defensive into next week, possibly yielding 4257.50 over the next 2 - 3 weeks.
Downside Friday, 4416.00 can contain intraday weakness, while breaking/opening below 4416.00 allows 4357.75 intraday, where the market can place a daily low.
A settlement today below 4357.75 signals 4299.50 on Monday, 4257.50 by the end of next week, likely contain weekly selling pressures when tested, possibly into later July.
Upside Friday, pushing/opening above 4467.50 allows 4509.00 intraday, able to contain buying through next week and below which 4257.50 is attainable over the next several weeks.
Inversely, a daily settlement above 4509.00 will keep the longer-term objective at 4616.50 in reach over the next several weeks.
S&P 500, 6/21/23The 4195.75 long-term support area can contain selling through the balance of the year, above which 4606.50 remains a 3 - 5 month objective, the 4808.25, January 2022 all-time high expected by the end of the year.
On the way up, 4606.50 can contain monthly buying pressures, with a settlement above 4606.50 indicating the targeted 4808.25 within 3 - 5 weeks, where the broader market can double-top on a monthly basis.
Downside, a weekly settlement below 4195.75 would be considered a significant failed long-term buy signal, in essence indicating 3898.25 within 2 - 3 months.
Perfect storm breakout Several favorable factors indicate trend has changed. We had bounce off the 50 MA (Monthly). We set a higher low pivot. We had a breakout over a trendline from a cup and handle pattern. A BAM signal triggered on Jan 12th (bullish signal with excellent record). What more do you want?
I am hoping for a pullback to the .38 Fibonacci line...but may need to settle for .23. Market may make it hard to get a good position. When the train leaves the station it doesn't back up to let late-comers get aboard.
Many people clamoring this is a fake breakout. It may be...but price action is screaming we are going up for awhile. Use stops or keep close eye on market.
Climbing a wall of worryAfter breaking above the resistance near $4,200, SPX continued to grind higher for nearly two weeks. Currently, it trades close to the $4,350 price tag. Despite tomorrow’s Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting, the market is exceptionally complacent. That is reflected in the low value of the VIX that returned to levels unseen since February 2020. Technicals like MACD and RSI continue to support the rally on the daily time frame, with RSI being just slightly away from breaking above 70 points; if RSI manages to break above this level, it will be very bullish for the short term. We expect this occurrence to be accompanied by a test of resistance at $4,400. However, if RSI fails to perform a crossover and MACD starts to flatten, it will raise our suspicion about the potential trend reversal. In addition to that, we are paying close attention to the support near $4,325. If the price drops below this level, it will be slightly bearish.
As for tomorrow’s FOMC meeting, general expectations are that the Federal Reserve will pause a hiking cycle and wait for more economic data to determine a further path for the monetary policy. That is because of the lagging effect of interest rates, which still have not hit the economy at full power. This decision might be viewed as an initial phase of pivoting and could act as another catalyst for the rally in the short term. The same positive effect can have today’s release of inflation data if it comes in cooler than expected. Overall, we think the short-term direction continues to favor bulls. In defiance of that, our view beyond the short-term/medium-term remains still inclined toward the notion that the U.S. economy is likely headed for a recession in the second half of 2023.
