$SPY Quarter 3 (Q3) AnalysisThe S&P 500 had a correction in August and September that led to a correction back down into the EMA ribbon. I believe that SPY is trending for a strong Q4 and will make progress towards a new all-time high above $477 over the next few months (marked by the green circle). For now I would like to see a bullish bounce off the EMA ribbon.

SPX SPY in No Mans Land, Never seen before in market historyThis is a weekly chart and I meant to share this on Friday; but forgot. Blue vertical lines are the paths from previous bear market lows to new all time highs, over-layed to the bottom of October 2022. Red vertical lines are the bear market paths from all time highs to bear market lows, over-layed to the high of January 2022.
As you can see we are no longer following the path of the "new" bull markets, and we we deviated away from bear market paths... well a while ago. So should we have been on a bear market path this whole time, but the stimulus from Inflation Reduction Act and Chips Act helped support the market for just a short period of time?!?!? Well we will find out. I just know this is truly a historic pattern.
SPY S&P 500 etf Options expiring next weekIf you haven`t bought puts ahead of the FED`s Interest Rate Decision last week:
Which happen to end up 4.18X higher after the Federal Reserve suggested the likelihood of another rate increase in the near future.
Then you need to know that SPY is approaching an oversold area.
And historically, as you can see in the RSI chart, in these areas technical players tend to buy the dip, anticipating a technical rebound.
In this context, and looking into the options chain, I would consider the following Calls expiring next Friday:
2023-9-29 expiration date
$430 Strike Price
$4.38 Premium
Looking forward to read your opinion about it!
S&P500 (SPX) -> Buy The DipMy name is Philip, I am a German swing-trader with 4+ years of trading experience and I only trade stocks , crypto , options and indices 🖥️
I only focus on the higher timeframes because this allows me to massively capitalize on the major market swings and cycles without getting caught up in the short term noise.
This is how you build real long term wealth!
In today's anaylsis I want to take a look at the bigger picture on S&P500.
After perfectly retesting the 50% fibonacci retracement level in confluence with previous structure this recent rally of more than 25% was quite expected.
After this agressive rally I do expect some short term weakness and the S&P500 to retest its long term uptrendline before I think that we could see another push higher.

I know that this is a quite simple trading approach but over the past 4 years I've realized that simplicity and consistency are much more important than any trading strategy.
Keep the long term vision🫡
SPY New All Time Highs By Year End. 8% No Recession
Jerome Powell thanks retail for shorting the M2 debasement.
Now watch in suspense the next months unfold of non stop SPY rising and the market try to figure out what's going wrong.
Welcome to the roaring 23s and welcome to start of the final bubble.
Once that 8% gap is taken out I suspect news to start breaking it and the "TLT bulls" will get a shock when capital leaves money market funds and flows back into the growth sector.
Believing the "recession nonsense" is almost like believing the roman denarius aureus did not lose any silver content.
We've been in a recession since QE started in 2009, the currency will always debase to defend asset value even though it makes it weaker, this is how's it will be until the end of this system.

For the DJIA, Nasdaq, and S&P 500, this was the first negative return over the last four weeks.

Market Recap
Our fund flows week kicked off on Thursday, June 15, with the weekly initial jobless claims data showing seasonally adjusted initial claims was 264,000. The four-week moving average was 255,750 - an increase of 8,500 from the previous week’s revised average and the highest four-week average level since November 13, 2021. The U.S. Census Bureau also announced the Advance Monthly Sales for Retail and Food Services report highlighting estimates of U.S. retail and food services sales were up 0.3% from the previous month and up 1.6% from 12-months ago - many forecasts had a monthly decline (-0.1%). Equity markets fared well on the day, both the S&P 500 (+1.22%) and Nasdaq (+1.15%) logged their sixth straight daily gain following Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell’s announcement that the Fed will not increase interest rates this earlier week.
On Friday, June 16, the University of Michigan published their consumer sentiment report detailing an increase in the U.S. to 63.9, marking the highest level in four months. These figures also beat forecasts, reflecting there may be greater market optimism than originally thought with the debt ceiling drama passed (for now) and inflation trending downward (for now). Treasury yields rose on the day, led by the five-year yield (+1.89%). Equity markets fell on the day - Russell 2000 (-0.73%), Nasdaq (-0.68%), S&P 500 (-0.37%), and DJIA (-0.32%).

SPY: Support Becomes Resistance (Macro)SPY has reached the .618 Fib retrace level and we are definitely at a crossroads. If price break through
this level and flips resistance into support, then the macro measured move on the monthly, puts price in
the $700s. If resistance holds then we have a measured move to the $330 level, before hypothetically
resuming this trend. If resistance holds and we resume our downtrend over the next few months than it is
hard to say how things will play out from there. The upward channel could be considered broken and we
form a new trend going forward. Although, another measured move down to the $330 level does seem
to form a macro bullfrog on the SPY which is bullish.
Given the warnings that the macro data has been flashing as far as manufacturing and china and consumer
credit card debt and drop in savings accounts, etc. It is very likely resistance will hold and we continue
downward temporarily from here. It is honestly a best case scenario because equities are fairly expensive right now.
