[W] SP500 - 24.3.2025This has been an unusually disturbing prediction that I have ever made, and yet so long expected. It's also probably for the first time, I do it on a weekly chart! The huge question mark here, is how FED will react to stagflation turning into a recession, and to recession with a looming threat to progress further. At some point, they might be tempted to act with low rate and EQ, which will further increase already high Gini index and might eventually cause defaults on loans and mortages. Thus, causing a crisis not seen since 2008. The current president Donald Trump might want to distract from the increasingly worsening domestic situation by seeking and external (and internal) enemy, further strengthening his grip on power. While the entire situation might provide a temporary boost to the defense sector alongside with utilities, foreign capital and trade will likely diminish. Unlike the 2008 crisis that was caused predominantly by internal factors, this case might be marked by geopolitical isolation which threatens to leave a much deeper scar.

Stock Market Hits Extreme Oversold Levels — Rebound Already ...Trump tariffs and other geopolitical events triggered a market correction. But in the bigger picture, this noise means very little. Mathematical models and indicators are pointing to extreme oversold levels. If a recession hasn't started yet — this could be a great opportunity. Even if it has already begun, strong bounces from current levels are possible across many stocks. In fact, some of those bounces are already happening — and we can see that across multiple instruments. Personally, I picked up a few quantum tech tickers like IONQ, which is already up +40%, and added a bit of NVDA. Holding for now.

SPX500 24/3/2025 Sideways to up pullback phase Last Friday's candlestick closed as a bull bar near its high. The market opened lower but lacked follow-through selling and traded sideways to up for the rest of the day. In our last report, we said that traders would see if the bears could create a strong bear bar, or if the market would open lower but lack follow-through selling, like Thursday. The bulls want the market to form a 2 legged sideways to up pullback. The pullback currently has more bull bars vs bear bars with no follow-through selling. The bulls are stronger. The next targets for the bulls are the 20-day EMA, 200-day EMA or the January 13 low. The market has formed 3 pushes up (including today's gap up) with the first two legs being the Mar 17 and Mar 19 high. If there is a pullback, the bulls want at least a small sideways to up leg to retest the current leg high (Mar 24). The bears see any pullback as minor. They expect at least a small second leg sideways to down to retest the Mar 13 low after the pullback phase. The strong move down slightly favor the first pullback to be minor and not lead to a reversal up. They were not able to create follow-through selling on Mar 18 and Mar 21. They must create strong bear bars with follow-through selling to increase the odds of another leg down. The prior climactic selloff and parabolic wedge increase the odds of a pullback which is underway. Traders will see the strength of the pullback. If it is strong (consecutive bull bars closing near their highs), they may look for a retest of the 20-day and the breakout point - Jan 13 low. If the pullback lacks follow-through buying (overlapping candlesticks, doji bars, bear bars, long tails above bars), the odds of another leg down AFTER the pullback phase increase. For now, the buying pressure is stronger than the selling pressure (bear bars with no follow-through selling). Odds slightly favor the market to still be in the sideways to up pullback phase.

Pre-dump Stop Hunt Seems Likely HereMy previous forecast into the high of the rally was for a capitulation from the high, no major retracement in the drop and then once we broke the low - slam to 5500. This trade went well in the first stages. Top where it was expected. Sell off in the style expected. New low as expected - but there has yet to be a big follow through. This failed follow through (even although we are still sitting at the lows right now) makes me worry about the different trap variants of the break I expect. Here's the setup I am looking at. It's a bullish butterfly-like pattern off the high. I say butterfly-like because it doesn't perfectly fit the rules. C is a new high, for one. But I find this general M type of shape is useful for spotting lows or breaks. I tend to bracket all these things under a "butterfly". I know it's a misterm as per the books, but it serves the purpose I am using it for. Three main things can happen off a butterfly decision. One is the 1.61 breaks and we slam to 2.20. This was the OG forecast of 5500. This is the rarer of the outcomes but it happens so fast there's not time to deal with it - which is why I planned and positioned for this into the rally high. Second thing that can happen it a low. Butterfly can work. All can be well with the world. For a few reasons I don't think that's happening but it's a risk to be aware of. This could be a low. Finally, we have the dead cat and break pattern - the one that is the primary plan for now if we make the bounce. Here's an example of one of those. Notice how this trades under the support and then puts in a series of small spike out candles - then it makes the bull trap. Stalls a while and then the next break is the actionable one. Look at this little zone - we game this zone on both sides before the move. These look similar. If the break does not come now I think we'll see a bull trap atypical to the previous ones in that is moderately breaks the lower highs we've seen in all the previous rallies. Giving bears good reason to puke their positions and bulls good reason to think the low is in. Barcode there for a while and then setup the bigger trade. Ideally here I'd like to make a little money in the rally. Use this to bankroll my speculative OTM puts. Breaks lower are liable to cause an instant pivot to the plan for the run away break - but this bull trap move would be far more befitting of a pre-crash move I think. It really does feel a little too easy right now. Would be so many fewer bears if we made that little spike and stuck stubbornly at the high of it for a while. I've been hitting every rally in SPX since 6150. Done a lot of offloading of my positions yesterday and anything I am holding I have hedged with 580 calls. We may be very close, within months, of a real break - but we might have a big distraction rally to come first. No one has called me names for being a bear of late ... concerning. A good bounce would fix that.

US 500 Index – A Deeper Rally or Retreat?The US 500 rallied 0.8% last week to close at 5666 and in doing so managed to lock in its first up week since early February. The bounce also brought some joy to those dip buyers that had to endure watching the index move into correction territory (10% drop from 6144 high) the previous week when it touched a 6-month low at 5505 on March 13th. Looking forward, it is probably still way too early to say that the selling and rotation away from US stocks into other global indices is over, although what we can say is that traders have taken a pause for reflection ahead of what could be a volatile finish to the end of the first quarter of 2025. Afterall, sentiment towards stocks in the US 500, especially the technology sector, remains fragile. In the week ahead traders are likely to be focused on the finer details of President Trump’s plan for reciprocal tariffs, which are due to hit all countries, including long-time US allies, on April 2nd. The breadth of these tariffs and the extent of retaliatory measures, particularly from China and the EU, are likely to have knock on implications for US economic growth, inflation and consumer confidence (see below) , all of which are key factors that may impact future corporate earnings and the direction of the US 500 across the week. Economic Data: Monday: 1345 GMT US Preliminary PMI Surveys Tuesday: 1400 GMT US Consumer Confidence Friday: 1230 GMT US PCE Index (Fed’s preferred inflation gauge) Solid Footing: The US 500 has opened the week on a more solid footing after a weekend report on Bloomberg suggested President Trump’s wave of tariffs are to be more targeted than the all-out assault he has touted on social media over the last few weeks. However, this is yet to be confirmed, and while not the worst-case scenario, it would still be an escalation of the current trade wars and may still result in retaliatory measures from those countries that are hit the hardest. It could also mean traders need to be on Trump social media watch again in the early part of this week. Technical Update: A Question of Fibonacci Retracements The US 500 index encountered an aggressive sell-off of 10.4% from the February 2025 all-time high at 6144 to its March low of 5505, from which attempts to bounce have materialised. This low was important from a technical perspective because the sell off tested a possible support level, marked by a Fibonacci retracement. In the case of the US 500 index, it was the 50% level of the April 2024 to February 2025 advance which stands at 5533 (see chart above). Using Fibonacci Retracements: Fibonacci retracements are useful as they can highlight potential support levels when any price weakness is seen and potential resistance levels when any price strength is seen. Closing breaks below retracement support or above retracement resistance can suggest the possibility of a more extended price move in the direction of the break. We recently published a report on how to use Fibonacci retracements in greater detail, so please take a look at our timeline to read this. Are Fibonacci Retracement Levels Offering Any Insight into Recent US 500 Index Moves? Having already rallied following tests of the 5533 retracement level, this has been confirmed as a support focus moving forward. While closing breaks are not a guarantee of further price declines, with much still dependent on future price trends and sentiment across the trading week, it may well be closes below this level that expose the potential for deeper declines. If this were to happen, downside potential may then shift towards retracement support at the 61.8% level, which stands at 5389 as you can see on the chart above. Fibonacci Resistance Focus: We can also run Fibonacci retracements on the February to March phase of weakness to provide potential resistance levels to focus on in case there is an extension of the recent rally. The 38.2% retracement of the February to March decline stands at 5750 and this is a level that might need to be monitored. If this 5750 level were to be broken on a closing basis, it may be possible to see a more extended phase of price strength which could could skew the focus for traders towards resistance at 5825, which is the higher 50% retracement level, may be even 5900, which is the 61.8% retracement.

S&P 500 Setting Up for a Breakout – But Not Before One More TrapAs I’ve said before, the FOREXCOM:SPX500 is a key reference for my crypto trading . That’s why I sat down and took a closer look at the chart – and I’m now ready to place a limit order , based on what I’m seeing. I believe we’re still in a correction phase , and it’s far from over . However, I think it’s realistic that we’ll see a move toward $5,832 next week . Before that happens, I expect either today’s Monday Low or next week’s Previous Weekly Low to get swept, ideally triggering a dip into the 12-hour Fair Value Gap just below. That’s where I see my entry zone forming. It’s also the exact area where Wave B overshoots the starting point of Wave ABC, making it a clean Flat correction pattern, with Wave C completing to the downside before we get a solid move upward. I’m setting my stop-loss below the $5,500 low. If this setup plays out, I expect the S&P to push toward $5,832 , and after that, I’m anticipating a larger correction that could take the index back down to $5,500 or even $5,450 over the coming weeks. Timing remains unclear for that move after, but the structure is here , and I’m looking forward to seeing how it plays out.

There's a heightened focus on inflation indicators and central bank policies, crucial for future market direction, alongside a performance gap favoring value stocks. - News Impact: Recent tech sector sell-offs, especially in semiconductors and Tesla, suggest challenges face growth sectors. Geopolitical factors, including recently announced tariffs by President Trump, could further heighten volatility. Upcoming consumer confidence and GDP revisions are key reports to watch, possibly influencing next week's market tone.

Looking for a minimum of ES 5850In the days to come our initial pattern off the recent has the high probability to get into the 5850 area. Here I will be looking for a pullback. If this pullback can be viewed as corrective in it's structure then I expect the subdivisions and pathway on my ES4Hr chart should follow suit. However, if the pullback turns out to be impulsive, I will be looking for follow through for either Minor B having completed early, or the alternate wave (iv). If that sort of price action were to materialize, it's Friday's low of 5651.25 that must support any drop if we're to continue to subdivide higher and have this minor B take more time.

Why I Took the L (and Feel Great About It)Why I Took the L (and Feel Great About It) | SPX Analysis 24 Mar 2025 The markets are meandering again, and I’m starting to feel like a one-man tribute band for “Brimful of Asha” on repeat. Another grindy week, another re-run of the up-a-bit, down-a-bit SPX drama. Today’s vibe? Picture those magnificent men in their flying machines… looping up diddely up-up and down diddely down-down with zero destination in sight. The overnight futures opened with some energy - but landed us smack back into the call wall zone at 5700/5720. Meanwhile, the Bollinger Bands are pinching tighter than my jeans post-Christmas, confirming what we already know: this market’s stuck in a range. But here's the thing… I’m not stressing it. I’ve seen this dance before. And I know exactly what I’m waiting for. --- Deeper Dive Analysis: Another week, another range, and here I am again – sipping coffee, muttering to myself like a budget oracle, watching SPX push a few points higher and thinking… "Didn’t we just do this yesterday?" The overnight futures gapped higher, but the market basically landed us right back into the same call wall we’ve been dancing with all week – 5700/5720. It’s like déjà vu… but with less excitement. And don’t even get me started on the Bollinger Bands. They’re pinching so tightly now you could use them as a tourniquet. Yes, we’re consolidating. Yes, we already knew that. But now it’s like the market is actively mocking us. 🎯 So what’s changed? Nothing. The plan remains exactly the same: Wait for a breakout-pullback – either direction. Don’t force trades. Stay sharp, but don’t get twitchy. Friday’s rally? It messed with the last of my bear swings, and instead of dragging the positions out like a bad soap opera, I just let them expire and took the loss. Not because I had to. But because they were irritating me. Sometimes, the smartest move is not about managing the trade – it’s about managing the trader. I cleared the decks, reset the headspace, and now I’m ready for what comes next. So here we are: Bullish trigger is still 5720+ Bearish trigger stays below 5605 Everything in between is just noise. And yeah, I’m still leaning bearish, but I’m not forcing it. We’ve seen this pattern before – the grind, the stall, the fakeout. And when the real move comes? That’s when I’ll strike. Until then, it’s back to the charts, back to the tea, and back to waiting with the quiet smugness of someone who knows patience pays better than panic. Let’s see if today delivers… or if we’re just rolling the same episode again. --- Fun Fact 📢 In 1997, when the VIX dropped below 10, traders called it "nap time." The market stayed so calm for so long, many option traders took part-time jobs just to stay busy - including one notorious story of a floor trader who moonlighted as a nightclub bouncer. 💡Lesson? When volatility vanishes, don’t force action – prepare for the return of chaos.

S&P 500 Analysis: Markets Start the Week on a Positive NoteS&P 500 Analysis: Markets Start the Week on a Positive Note A week ago, while analysing the S&P 500 index chart (US SPX 500 mini on FXOpen), we noted that the market had officially entered a correction phase, as the price had declined more than 10% from its February 19 peak. This drop was driven by mounting uncertainty over the potential economic damage caused by the Trump administration’s tariff policies in international trade. However, this morning, markets are showing signs of optimism following reassuring statements from officials over the weekend. According to Reuters: → Trump announced plans to hold talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping, while the U.S. Trade Representative is set to meet his Chinese counterpart this week. → The European Union has taken a conciliatory stance, delaying its initial countermeasures against the U.S. until mid-April. As a result, sentiment appears to have shifted towards optimism, with the S&P 500 index (US SPX 500 mini on FXOpen) trading approximately 4% above this month’s low. Technical Analysis of the S&P 500 Index (US SPX 500 mini on FXOpen) As noted on 17 March: → The price is forming an ascending channel (marked in blue). → The fact that the price has reached the lower boundary of the channel suggests that bearish momentum may be fading. Currently, we are witnessing an attempt at a bullish reversal from the channel’s lower boundary. From a bearish perspective, resistance may emerge around the 5750 level, where the price has previously reacted (as indicated by the arrows). From a bullish perspective: → Bears have lost control of the 5600 level. → A bullish gap at the start of the week indicates a significant shift in market sentiment. If positive news continues to emerge throughout the week, the S&P 500 index (US SPX 500 mini on FXOpen) could attempt a rise towards the median of the identified channel. This article represents the opinion of the Companies operating under the FXOpen brand only.

$US500 Intraday PaydayI don't do Intraday chart posts for various reasons however this chart is the most important watch of the year. Right now we are testing a very important triple top where heavy resistance is being printed in the pre-market. Several times bull have tried to break through with large one minute candles and being stiffly rejected. This is of extreme importance because the current formation on all indexes in a bear flag looking for continuation to the 5400 level. If rejection sets in, short to the 5400 and then go neutral for a week and re-asses.

SPX: uncertainty holdsAnother relatively mixed trading week for US equities. The most important weekly event was certainly the FOMC meeting, where the Fed decided to hold interest rates unchanged for one more time. Important input was that the Fed is still on the track of two rate cuts during the course of the year, which modestly supported positive market sentiment. Still, uncertainties regarding decisions of the US Administration, specially related to trade tariffs are leaving the mark for precaution among market participants. Along with the trade tariffs, consultant companies like Accenture are affected by the DOGE cuts in spending and whose shares suffered a 7,3% drop in value. The S&P 500 was traded higher by 0,5% on a weekly level. However, uncertainty is still evident in the index moves. The highest weekly level was 5.710, while the index closed the week at the level of 5.667. Companies are starting to bring up their estimates regarding future earnings. Currently, some of them noted expectations that trade tariffs will impact their future sales, planning of capital spending and jobs. As long as uncertainty holds on the market, the prices of stocks will be in a volatile mood. In this sense, it should not be expected to see some exponential moves in the S&P 500, like it was during the previous two years.

BUY SPX500SPX500 Trade Idea: Bullish Continuation Setup Market Overview The SPX500 has shown strong bullish momentum, and a continuation of this trend is likely if price holds above the 5,772-support area. A confirmed breakout from this level could provide an ideal buying opportunity. Trade Setup Entry: Buy at 5,733 (waiting for confirmation at key support) Stop Loss (SL): 5,525 (below strong support zone) Take Profit (TP): 6,154 (next key resistance level) Analysis & Rationale ✅ Bullish Trend Continuation – Price action suggests strong momentum, favoring further upside. ✅ Key Support at 5,772 – A breakout above this level will confirm bullish strength. ✅ Favorable Risk-to-Reward Ratio – Well-defined SL and TP provide a balanced strategy. Trading Plan & Execution Wait for confirmation at 5,772 before entering. If price holds, execute a buy order at 5,733. Set SL at 5,525 to limit downside risk. Take profit at 6,154, adjusting the stop-loss accordingly if price gains momentum. This trade setup follows the bullish market structure, providing an opportunity to capitalize on SPX500’s continued upside potential. However, monitor economic data and global market sentiment for any shifts in trend. 📌 Risk Disclaimer: Always implement proper risk management and adjust your strategy as market conditions evolve.
