SPY Intraday Breakdown | Will the Fill Zone Hold?๐ฐ๏ธ 15-Min Chart | May 21, 2025
๐ข Posted by: Wavervanir_International_LLC
A textbook ascending wedge breakdown has triggered intraday, breaching dynamic support right at the edge of the VWAP envelope. This breakdown aligns with a higher time-frame rejection seen near 598.22 (0.886 retrace zone).
๐ Intraday Observations:
Structure Break: Rising wedge support snapped โ suggests momentum shift short-term.
Next Liquidity Pools:
๐ 567.51 โ Prior HVN zone and VWAP mid-band
๐ 559.30 โ Golden pocket + historical positioning from April
Volume Spike: Bearish confirmation on rising sell-side volume.
๐ง Strategic Context:
Macro Tone: Market breathes as participants await key inflation data + Fed speak. Liquidity is not risk-on.
Risk Flow Watch: Options OI building around 560/570 strikes โ could magnetize toward there if flow accelerates.
๐ก๏ธ Tactical Setup:
Short-Term Bias: Bearish to neutral into 567.5โ559.3 zone
Mean Reversion Setup: Watch VWAP / 3-day anchored VWAP cluster around 559 as a potential reload zone
Invalidation: Quick reclaim and hold above 590 with strong volume flips intraday tone bullish again.
๐ Message to Traders:
Major buyers may be lurking below. The market is deciding whether to reward trapped longs or give value buyers their fill at better risk-adjusted zones. We remain liquidity-aware and flexible.

SPY | Liquidity Engineering or Reversal?๐ฐ๏ธ Daily Chart | May 21, 2025
๐ข Posted by: Wavervanir_International_LLC
โMajor buyers are lurking... but will the market deliver the fill they want?โ Thatโs the question.
Weโre currently watching a tactical rejection near 598.22, the 0.886 Fib retracement of the prior high-volume breakdown. This level historically serves as a liquidity sweep zone before decision-making candles emerge.
๐ Technical + Volume Profile:
Liquidity Zones:
Resistance: 594.4โ598.2 = prior supply + Fib confluence
Demand Zones:
567.5 โ anchored VWAP / trend channel midpoint
559.3 โ 0.618 Fib + major positioning cluster
Volume: Distribution volume into prior highs = possible short-term exhaustion
EMA Structure: Bullish stack but extended from mean; room for reversion to VWAP bands.
๐ง Macro Overlay:
Risk Events: Debt ceiling headlines are muted, but upcoming PCE inflation and labor data could dictate short-term gamma positioning.
Options Skew: OTM put volume rising; VIX curve remains steep in front-end โ suggesting hedging or prep for pullback.
Macro Setup: Real yields are sticky, and the Fed is not signaling dovish pivot yet โ any continuation will need confirmation via breadth and credit spreads.
๐ก๏ธ Risk Framework:
Reclaim 598.2: Bias flips bullish with upside into 613โ644
Break Below 567.5: Opens doors for deeper retest at 559 or even 533
Neutral Range: 567.5โ594.5 โ Let market structure show intent before deploying size.
๐ Game Plan:
Let price come to you. Patience > Prediction. Market is deciding whether to reward early breakout traders or punish late longs via mean reversion. Watch the 567โ559 clusterโthatโs where smart money may reload.

SPY trend reversal linear analysis, with parallel stackingAll the annotations speak for themselves...
but just a simple idea to see if there are levels that make sense if the descending line were to be reversed and applied to the ascending trend.
Have to follow those rules, and if too cluttered on choppy weeks- then hold the bottom line and only increase the newest line if you have price chopping greater than the height of the biggest candle in said chop.
ergo, if the biggest candle is say 4 point up from the last trend line off the inception permanent line ascending trend, then hold that line at the high of that day until price breaks above it. If chops continues above it, then draw another parallel 4 points (the height of that largest candle before the chop started) above the original line and hold it there until the chop continues up or is reverts and heads back down.
If you want to see if chop is a flag formation, then take the above example of a big candle up marking a new parallel line high and see if price for 3-4 days stays within it, pull down another parallel from that high and put it on that low...will allow for visual where the flag boundaries may be...

Big Wick Month in Classic Bear MoveWhich type of move we're in is hard to determine at this point, but if we were inside a classic bull trap we'd have to trade down to 5500 - 5400 from this zone.
It'd have to be a wick rejection on the monthly candle.
Which would mean we'd have to dump over 7% in the next 10 days.
These things may or may not happen, but the odds betting on them are awesome.
SPY ... intersting levels when view by DXY ratio and pitchforkSame as all my others, so for reference see my earlier ideas for better grasp of what I do...
But when the dollar changes, you must track that with price to see if things are in inflated territory or deflated territory. As in, gold goes up cause the currencies its measured against go down....cant view it another way.
So if SPY is overdone, it should be higher than previous highs...which the one chart below shows....but the price chart doesn't show it....so if your stock accelerates faster than the currency can devalue....you have potentials for blowoffs and hard reversions.

SPY 4H | Smart Money Concepts x Fibonacci ConfluencePrice has rallied into premium territory (above the 0.786โ0.886 Fibonacci retracement), tapping into a prior strong high with signs of exhaustion. From a Smart Money perspective, we're entering a high-probability sell-side liquidity sweep zone. ๐
Key Technical Highlights:
๐บ Strong High @ ~613.23 aligning with FVG and premium zone
๐ป Projected retracement target: 560โ565 zone (mid-FVG & equilibrium)
โ๏ธ Equilibrium at ~563 โ likely acting as magnet for price
๐ฆ Demand zone and breaker block overlap between 560โ570
๐ Long-term bullish trajectory remains intact if this corrective leg plays out and holds
Bias:
Short-term Bearish: Potential rejection from premium into equilibrium
Mid-term Bullish: If we reclaim the demand zone with strength, we likely re-accumulate and target the ultimate liquidity grab @ 644.46
"Liquidity seeks liquidity. Patience is premium." โ Wavervanir DSS
๐Watch for volume confirmation and reaction near 560โ570 before scaling in. If invalidated (close above 613), reevaluate bullish breakout scenario.

Rising wedge on SPY - Melt up? or Next leg down? Immediate Bias (Tomorrow):
Scenario 1 โ Bullish Continuation (Low Probability unless there's a macro catalyst):
Breaks above ~$596โ$598 cleanly
Retests that zone as support (watch 595.50 intraday)
Then targets:
600 psychological
604โ608 upper resistance channel
Possible end-of-month blow-off top: 612โ618
Scenario 2 โ Pullback / Rejection (More Probable Setup):
Rejected at ~596โ597 zone (which aligns with upper wedge resistance)
Breakdown below $590 intraday
Then targets:
587.80 EMA cluster (20/50)
If lost โ 576.44 next EMA + demand level
Followed by major support at 565.87 / 563.43
๐ฅ Week Ahead Trade Plan (May 20โ24)
โ
Bullish Possibility:
If NVDA earnings, FOMC minutes, or macro data surprise to the upside
Watch for breakout above the red wedge and hold above 600
Target range: 604 โ 612 max upside
๐จ Bearish Scenario:
Wedge breakdown below ~$590
Momentum cracks down to:
587
576 (watch for bounce)
If panic selling โ 565โ563 (larger time frame buying zone)
Volume divergence and overbought EMAs support a potential cool-off.
๐
Monthly Projection (End of May):
If wedge breaks down โ consolidation range between 563 โ 587
If wedge breaks out โ blow-off rally up to 612โ620, but likely to fade quickly
Fed commentary and NVDA earnings on May 22 will be major catalysts
๐ Key Levels
Type Price Notes
Resistance (R3) 612โ618 Final upside blow-off zone (channel top)
Resistance (R2) 604 Overhead channel line
Resistance (R1) 595โ598 Wedge top + major resistance
Support (S1) 587 EMA cluster + strong local demand
Support (S2) 576 Clean structure + prior breakout
Support (S3) 565โ563 Confluence of long-term EMAs + trendline
๐ฏ Trade Setups
๐ Bearish (Favored if no breakout tomorrow):
Short 595โ597 with stop above 600
Targets: 587 โ 576
Optional: Add below wedge break (~590)
๐ Bullish (Confirmation-based):
Break + retest of 597โ600
Target: 604, then scale out at 612
Avoid front-running long unless you see volume + price close outside wedge
SPY/QQQ Plan Your Trade For 5-19 : Gap Breakaway In Trend ModeToday's pattern suggests the SPY/QQQ will start with an opening price GAP (downward in this case) and could continue to move into a Breakaway pattern.
Given the recent news of a US Credit Downgrade, I'm suggesting all traders prepare for what may become a period of sideways price volatility over the next 3-5+ days.
I've highlighted a potential breakdown range on the SPY/QQQ on my charts that I believe acts as a solid confirmation level related to any potential reversal/breakdown in trend.
Currently, the trend is still BULLISH. If price falls below my breakdown range (the angled rectangle on my charts) - then I believe price will have broken this upward FLAGGING trend channel and will begin to move downward - targeting lower support levels.
This is a critical time for the markets. If we fail to move higher at these levels, we have a long way to go (downward) before we attempt to find any support.
Gold and Silver appear to be attempting to break the FLAG HIGH of an Inverted Excess Phase Peak pattern. This could prompt a strong rally phase back above $3300/$33 for Gold/Silver over the next few days. Time will tell how things play out.
BTCUSD appears to be REJECTING the recent highs within a consolidation range. If this rejection continues, I see BTCUSD moving downward - trying to reach the $95k (or lower) looking for support.
Remember, we are still generally BULLISH and moving upward within the FLAGGING channel. If we do get a breakdown in price over the next few days, it will become clearly evident on the charts and we'll have to begin to change our expectations.
Right now - HEDGE.

SPY | RANGE TRADE | Dark Pool Activity | (May 19, 2025)SPY | RANGE TRADE | Dark Pool Activity + Structural Shift | (May 19, 2025)
1๏ธโฃ Insight Summary:
SPX is still trading near a key sell zone, and recent dark pool activity suggests a possible shift in market structure. A correction from here wouldnโt be surprising.
2๏ธโฃ Trade Parameters:
Bias: Neutral with Short Bias
Entry Zone: Watching current highs as a potential area to fade
Stop Loss: Above recent highs (tight and reactive)
TP1/TP2: Targeting lower support zones if correction unfolds
Alternative Setup: If support holds and structure flips, I may look for reactive longs
3๏ธโฃ Key Notes:
โ
Notable dark pool prints showed up on Thursday, indicating potential distribution โ this has changed how I view the market structure
โ
Iโm preparing for a โsell the highs, buy the lowsโ scenario inside the current range
โ A clean breakout above the current resistance zone would invalidate the short bias
๐ก Iโve outlined both long and short scenarios โ it's all about reacting to what price gives us
4๏ธโฃ Follow-up Note:
If things start moving sharply, Iโll post an update with chart visuals and refined zones. Also, let me know if you'd like my dual-path trade planning template โ itโs great for these types of setups.

S&P500 2022 into the Bear Market. Same Pattern 2025In 2022, before the bear market began, we saw the same pattern that we're seeing now:
1. Sine wave pattern
2. Fake recovery
3. Break above the sine wave top
4. Sharp decline
Last week, right after the sine wave top was broken, U.S. bonds were downgraded AFTER OFFICIAL MARKET SESSION!
Itโs no surprise that rating agencies are losing confidence in the U.S. government's ability to repay its debts.
Just look at the rising interest payments โ if thatโs not a wake-up call, I donโt know what is. ๐
I donโt live in the U.S., but Iโm genuinely concerned that a collapse โ which now seems nearly inevitable โ will impact the entire world.
Going long in U.S. markets under these technical and fundamental conditions? Putting all your eggs back into that basket? Really?
I hope this gives some perspective.
Trade safely, trade small, and keep your risks minimal.
Spy Road To?Weekly Thesis for SPY
Weekly High: $594.50
Weekly Low: $589.28
Weekly Close: $594.20
52-Week Range: $481.80 โ $613.23
Critical Breakdown Level: 581
Why 581 matters:
It sits well below Sโ (585.60) and aligns closely with the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement of the past four-week swing (High 594.50 โ Low 566.76), which calculates to roughly 581.10.
A decisive weekly close below 581 would breach both pivot-derived supports and this Fibonacci zone, opening the door to deeper pullbacks toward the May 9 low near $564.34
Potential Sell-Wall at 604
Why 604 is a resistance cluster:
It sits just above Rโ (601.26), a confluence of weekly pivot resistance and likely profit-taking levels.
A series of limit orders tend to cluster near these round-number extensions, forming a โsell wallโ that may cap any rally unless broken on strong volume.
4. Strategy & Outlook
Caution advised: SPY must hold above 581 on a weekly close basis. A failure to do so would invalidate the recent up-move and likely lead to a test of lower support zones around 587 and 585, then potentially the mid-560s.
Bullish breakout: Only a sustained weekly close above 604โideally on above-average volumeโwould signal renewed upside conviction and pave the way toward the 52-week high at $613+.
Action plan:
Wait for confirmation โ donโt enter new longs until either 581 holds convincingly or 604 is cleared.
Use tight risk controls โ if deploying swing trades, place stops just below 581 for longs or just above 604 for shorts.
Monitor volume โ validate any breakout/breakdown with volume spikes to confirm institutional participation.

$SPY Daily Chart Taz Plan - May 2025 into June-July Breakdown๐ SPY Daily Chart Trading Plan โ May 2025
Thesis:
Price has returned to the exact level ($594.20) where the February impulse breakdown began. This zone is acting as a Lower High rejection within a broader bearish structure. A clean rejection here opens the door to multiple inefficiency fills below.
๐ Structure Breakdown:
Feb High (ATH): $613.23
Feb Open: $592.67
Feb Close (last green candle before impulse): $594.20
Current Price: $594.20
Marked LH: $592.50
This is a rally back into rejection, not strength.
๐ Key Zones & Gaps:
๐บ Gap Supply: $566.48 โ $578.50
๐บ Wick Gap: $558 โ $566 โ Needs a full-body candle to initiate fill
๐ฅ FVG (4/22): $528 โ $541.52
๐งฑ Major Support: $481.80
๐ง Trade Plan:
Short Entry 1 (Confirmation-Based):
๐ป Red candle rejection under $592.50 = starter short
๐ป Watch RSI and MACD for momentum fade
Short Entry 2 (Gap Breach):
๐ป If $578 is broken and retested โ scale in
๐ป Gap fill expected quickly once triggered
Short Entry 3 (Wick Gap):
๐ป Body close through $558 = last add
๐ป Sets up for final flush to FVG
๐ฏ Targets:
$578.50 โ $566.48 (Gap Fill)
$558 โ $541.52 (Wick Gap & FVG Top)
$528 โ $530 (FVG Close)
$481.80 (Long-Term Panic Target)
โ Invalidation:
Daily close > $595.50 = Pause thesis
Weekly close > $600 = Structural shift, short squeeze zone
๐ง Final Thoughts:
This isnโt just a gap fill play โ itโs a structural fade from a lower high back into memory. The Feb impulse wave left behind layers of inefficiency, and price just tapped the origin of the breakdown.
Momentum is peaking. If this is a trap, the downside should begin immediately.
Let the chart prove it.
