S&P500: This rally has just started.The S&P500 is bullish on its 1D technical outlook (RSI = 59.284, MACD = 37.100, ADX = 31.869) and is testing the 5,680 ATH R1 level. This is the 4H timeframe and as you see the current rebound was achieved on the 4H MA200. The 4H RSI is on the same levels as May 7th 2024 and November 3rd 2023, which were consolidations before a major Channel Up formation. Our Target is in tact (TP = 6,000).

Analysis on S&P: Dunno why it is so strongHi all,
In weekly timeframe, it has been SO HIGH to invest for SO LONG.
BUT, the price and momentum keep pushing up.
It is still not a good idea to short but also not good idea to long also.
Better wait and see or only do trading.
Best Regards,

BTC vs. S&P500
I want to give you a view on if the S&P500 is outperforming or if it is Bitcoin. In my view the S&P500 will outperform BTC for a few months and then BTC will get stronger in the bearish swing phases , in between. But not now. Look at the higher lows and higher highs and at the green box and on the red box. Sellers are still in control, but buyers seem a lot stronger.

SPX: on a verge of new ATHAfter the S&P 500 had the worst week in 2024, two weeks ago, the previous week brought the best week in 2024. This is how swift the investors sentiment has changed at the current moment. The index started the week at the level of 5.438 and reached its highest weekly level at Friday's trading session at 5.626. By gaining around 4% for the week, the index is currently only 1% lower from it's all-time highest levels. Aside from tech companies and semiconductor industry, this week utilities and industrials were also in the spotlight of the market.
Published US inflation figures pushed the investors sentiment higher in expectation that the Fed now has a clear case for the first rate cut. The inflation is clearly on a down path, reaching the level of 2,5% y/y in August. Investors are perceiving that the environment of lower interest rates would help the industries in the US to increase earnings, and they are adjusting their positions accordingly. The FOMC meeting is scheduled for 19th September, where some increased volatility and market nervousness might be expected. Certainly, the Fed's decision will impact the course of equity markets during the third quarter. After the FOMC meeting its is going to be known if the S&P 500 is heading toward the fresh new ATH.

$SPX A +100% winning setup last friday The top of the implied move, based on the previous night's (Thursday) close, was 5635, and that is exactly where we saw resistance. So if you sold 5635/ 5645 bear call spread's with me on Friday then congratulations on the winning trade. And that level was also right in the middle of the down gap that we started the month with. This chart set up is from my video on Thursday before fridays Trading session.
This week, the FOMC decision on Wednesday is pivotal. The market has eagerly awaited this moment all year, expecting a rate cut. However, caution is advised: the market might have already priced in not just one, but several future cuts. Remember, rate cuts often signal economic instability, aimed at mitigating further economic damage and easing pressure on struggling sectors. Stay vigilant; a rate cut isn't always bullish.
Historically, rate cuts can precede market downturns if they indicate deeper economic issues. The market's reaction to Fed's actions this week could be volatile.
SP - Unexpected comebackThe S&P 500 was signaling a potential double top on the weekly timeframe, accompanied by a lower RSI—a highly bearish indicator. From a macroeconomic perspective, recession risks are also mounting.
However, last week saw an unexpected and significant rally, which could potentially negate even the most bearish signals. Overall, I'm still neutral on this one.
Top 5 Weekly Trade Ideas #5 | SPX Triple Top or Rocket?SPX came roaring back once again after the drop in the first week of September, much like August. The question now is do we get another rejection or a new ATH? I believe we'll find out soon enough as we have one of the most anticipated FOMC decisions in years this week. We've seen some extreme volatility since the beginning of August and I expect it to continue.
If you ask me, this cut will mark the beginning of the US recession that I believe will be much worse than anything we've seen in modern times. Some folks like Jamie Dimon are warning of that possibility as well, but many others are saying the opposite. The market may not tank immediately, if ever. So it's important to stick to the charts during times like these. I'd be cautious this week, but after the dust settles we should have a good idea of where things stand.
I remain in the bearish camp, but I'll be looking for longs if we rip past ATH this week. I'll be quick to stop out in the case we end up rejecting quickly back below for a big fakeout/bull trap. I currently have puts targeting August and April lows first, with a stop above ATH. The back half of September historically has seen the worst returns in each year. The first rate cut and yield curve inversion flip have also historically marked major market tops and recessions. It should be an interesting fall either way, hopefully with a lot of opportunity.
Market Indecision 2024! (Diamond Reversal)It has been an interesting few years in the markets. One of the hottest bull runs coming off the Pandemic lows to a 7 month bear market in 2022, followed by another epic bull run! We are now at a major decision point for markets. Up or Down! Recession fears abound while small caps are ready to pop waiting on rate cuts. The S&P as lopsided as ever with Mag 7 carrying the entire index for 2 years. Where are we going next?
At every "potential" market top, the convergence between an ascending channel meets a potential descending channel forming a diamond shaped pattern. This pattern is the indecision point of any given market, but don't get bearish yet. A diamond reversal pattern can break in either direction, reversal or continuation .
I have documented both the historical moves and the future potential paths. Remember that markets are not pre-ordained to do anything. They have to make decisions, and while you may have already decided your personal view, you can let the market confirm your biases one step at a time.
React! Don't predict!
1) Halfway mark from 10/23 run to $6000 target
-4/19 bottom starts 2nd leg
-Bull Flag Consolidation
2) Diamond Reversal (Minor)
-Rate cuts? Yes/No
-And Why? Economy vs Inflation
**Upside Breakout on 9/13
3) Rate cuts hinted for Sep FOMC
-Halted 38% run from 10/23
-Halted 62% run from 10/22
4) Required drop to form minor/major diamond of indecision.
-Blamed on Japanese Carry Trade*
-Note the drop is perfect 78.6% retrace from 4/19 Run
*Japanese Carry Trade margin collapse was instead caused by formation.
**This was also opportunistic early rotation into treasuries.
5) Bullish rejection of minor diamond
-Resilient CPI and Jobs provide cover for soft landing narrative.
-Note the rejection confirms on diamond neutral line @ 38.2% 4/19 fib and healthy 20WMA bounce
6) Rate Cuts!!!
-Rate cut odds are near equal between .25 vs .50
-Note a rejection confirms Double Top
-Breakout confirms $6000
7) Blow off top!!!
-Note the identical pattern to 2022 top
*The Ancient Trendline is based on a back-dated creation of the S&P 500 by Standard & Poors as the index was founded in 1957
8) Bullish Ascending Channel starts in Jun-Oct 2022
-A short break here confirms new bearish descending channel and major diamond reversal.
-This will be your bearish hint towards bearish 2025 but don't short yet!!
-No break confirms ascending channel but EOY will give one more opportunity for a break.
9) End of Year typical Tax Loss Harvesting, Santa Rally, etc.
-Unlikely to see a bullish breakout here
-If Continuation occurs, it will be Jan into Feb
10) Last chance for Bears!
-Need bearish breakdown to confirm both diamond and descending channel
11) Descension confirmation marks several opportunities on path down for bullish break outs
-Initial Support @ $4800 (20% drop from top)
-Secondary Support @ $4450 (25% drop from top)
-Massive Support @ $4144 (30% drop from top)
Best of luck in 2025 whatever you decide! Game on!
Elliot wavesI have a measurement that shows me that the correction will continue based on the Fibonacci and Elliott wave, the entry is strictly where I show you and even better if it has made a pull back, if in case it breaks the peak on the top left then it is very likely that we have continuation, but this is what my measurements show me, which is a more unlikely scenario
thank you for participating in my idea

Which Presidential Term Year is the Most Profitable?An intriguing question from a recent client call led me to dive into the data. Here's what I uncovered about the relationship between presidential term years and stock market returns.
The Analysis
Data: Historical SPX (S&P 500) returns
Grouping: 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th years of presidential terms
Visualization: Each line represents returns for a specific term year
Color Key
1st year: Red
2nd year: Orange
3rd year: Green
4th year: Yellow
Total SPX: White
Combined 1st + 3rd years: Purple
Key Findings
The Winner: 3rd Year The third year of presidential terms significantly outperforms others, beating 2nd and 4th years by a notable margin.
Runner-up: 1st Year Surprisingly, the first year takes second place. Perhaps the optimism surrounding a new presidency plays a role?
Underperformers: 2nd and 4th Years 2nd years appear relatively uneventful. 4th years (election years) show more volatility, likely due to electoral uncertainty.
Combined Power of 1st and 3rd Years The purple line (1st + 3rd years combined) closely tracks the total SPX return (white line), suggesting these two years drive a significant portion of overall market gains.
Important Notes
Not every year within each category showed positive returns.
The analysis reveals average trends, not guarantees for future performance.
Food for Thought
How might this insight influence long-term investment strategies?
What factors could explain the 3rd year's outperformance?
Does this pattern hold true across different economic cycles or administrations?
What's your take on this analysis? Does it shift your perspective on market cycles or political terms?
Weekly 'composite index' RSI signals sell - 2000 repeat coming?Combined market indices divided by DXY has accurately signaled market expansion and contraction for more than 30 years. In the 'Internet Bubble' timeframe, although a RSI sell signal occurred, the market regained lost ground in 2000 prior to a multi-year sell-off. We see a similar run-up, sell signal, recovery now.
Is this time different? Or will we see a decline beginning January-February 2025.
More upside for SPX500USDHi traders,
It's like magic! Last week I said it was decision time for SPX500USD because if it wanted to go up it had to do it from the Daily FVG.
And what happened? It did exactly that! So did you make some profit?
For next week we could see a correction down and more upside for this pair.
Trade idea: Wait for a correction down and after that a change in orderflow to bullish again to trade longs.
If you want to learn more about wave analysis, please make sure to follow me, give a like and respectful comment.
This shared post is only my point of view on what could be the next move in this pair based on my analysis. I do not provide signals.
Don't be emotional, just trade!

SP500 Index Forecasted (Timeframe H4)Salam and Good Day,
This is my personal opinion for educational purposes only.
This is the S&P 500 (SP500) Index in a 4-hour timeframe. Let’s analyze the key components and forecast the possible next move:
Key Observations:
Fibonacci Retracement Levels:
The chart displays key Fibonacci retracement levels from a recent high of around 5,677.69 down to a recent low of 5,108.02.
The price has retraced and is currently sitting between the 50% (5,470.41) and 61.8% (5,555.19) retracement levels. These levels are crucial for determining possible resistance and support points in a trending market.
Trendlines:
An orange uptrend line from earlier in the year was broken in August. This break may have signalled the start of the downtrend visible in recent weeks.
A downward-sloping trendline (gray) is present, marking lower highs, indicating that the broader market might still be in a corrective or consolidation phase.
Current Price: The price is trading around 5,627, just below the 5,650 level, which is near the 61.8% Fibonacci level (5,555.19). This area could act as significant resistance to further upward movement.
MACD Indicator:
The MACD is showing relatively weak momentum, with the histogram bars slightly rising but not strongly indicating a trend reversal yet. This suggests that while a short-term upward movement has occurred, the overall market sentiment might still be in flux.
My Forecast:
Bullish Scenario:
If the price can break above the 61.8% Fibonacci level (5,555) and close above 5,650, we could see further upward movement targeting the recent highs around 5,677.69.
A breakout above this resistance zone may result in a continuation of the uptrend.
Bearish Scenario:
If the price fails to hold above 5,650 and the 61.8% Fibonacci level, rejection may occur, pushing the price lower.
The next support to watch would be around 50% Fibonacci retracement (5,470), followed by stronger support at 38.2% (5,384.88).
A fall below 5,470 could lead to a further decline, testing 5,279.07 (23.6% Fibonacci retracement).
Next level to be closely monitor :
Monitor the 5,555 - 5,650 resistance zone closely. A decisive close above this range with strong volume would confirm bullish strength.
A rejection at current levels could indicate a resumption of the downtrend, potentially leading to a retracement to lower Fibonacci levels.
Thanks
