SPX Target 6270 - Can It Get There?SPX Targets 6270 – But Can It Get There? | SPX Market Analysis 20 Feb 2025 The SPX is climbing like a caffeinated squirrel... ok, maybe not. It’s more like a slightly confused sloth trying to find second gear!..., while DJX and RUT are stuck in the mud. The breakout move we’ve been waiting for has arrived, and now the question is—does it have enough fuel to hit 6270, or will it stumble and trigger my hedge at 6100? Bollinger Bands are too tight for reliable setups, so I’m sticking with my 6 money-making patterns until volatility expands. Let’s break it all down… --- SPX Deeper Dive Analysis: 📈 SPX is Soaring (like a fat pigeon!) – But the Other Indexes Aren’t Joining the Party While SPX is off making new highs, its friends DJX and RUT seem to have lost their invitations. DJX is struggling to gain meaningful ground 📉 RUT can’t even catch an uptick, making it the weakest of the bunch ❌ Meanwhile, SPX is leading the way, with a clear breakout in play A closely following NDX is nipping at SPX's heals 💡 Breakout Confirmed – But Can It Hold? Scenario #1 from our previous discussions has unfolded—the range has broken out. Target: 6270 🎯 Hedge trigger: 6100 in case the move fails This is the good kind of waiting—waiting for profits to materialise 🔄 Why I’m Avoiding Tag ‘n Turn Setups Right Now Normally, after a breakout, I’d shift back to Tag 'n Turn setups. But there’s a problem… Bollinger Bandwidth is too tight, making moves too fast Price is flipping from one side of the bands to the other A Bollinger Band pinch is forming, indicating more compression before expansion So, what’s the plan? ✅ I’ll continue to use my 6 money-making patterns ✅ I’ll wait for volatility to expand before returning to Bollinger setups ✅ No forced trades—only high-probability moves 🚀 Final Takeaway? The breakout is here, the target is set, and the plan is clear. Now, it’s time to let the market do its thing and wait for the move to play out. --- Fun Fact 📢 Did you know? In 2018, Amazon briefly became a $1 trillion company—but it only stayed there for a few hours before dropping back below the threshold. 💡 The Lesson? Even the biggest breakouts can be short-lived—just because a stock (or index) makes a new high doesn’t mean it will stay there forever. Always have a plan—targets and hedge triggers matter.

U.S. equities climb despite tariff talk | FX ResearchThe market is clearly becoming less nervous about headlines around tariffs. President Trump was on the wires talking about 25% tariffs on automobiles, semiconductor, and pharmaceutical products, and the market took it all in stride rather than panicking as we had seen weeks back. There is a clearer understanding that all of this is much more about strategy and negotiating tactics, and overall, markets have responded in kind with U.S. equities up at record high levels and the U.S. dollar selling off. Moving on, earlier today the RBNZ was out cutting rates by 50 basis points as widely expected. Over in Japan, BOJ Takato was on the wires backing up the recent shift in BOJ sentiment towards the need to be on a hawkish policy track. Key standouts on today's calendar ahead come from UK inflation data, the Eurozone current account, U.S. housing starts, U.S. building permits, and the Fed minutes late in the day.

S&P corrective pullback after bullish breakout to new ATHS&P (US500) index pair price action sentiment appears bullish, supported by the longer-term prevailing uptrend. The recent intraday price action appears to be a sideways consolidation after reaching the intraday all time high. The key trading level is at 6080 level, the consolidation price range and also the previous resistance now newly formed support zone. A corrective pullback from the current levels and a bullish bounce back from the 6080 level could target the upside resistance at 6140 followed by the 6160 and 6200 levels over the longer timeframe. Alternatively, a confirmed loss of the 6080 support and a daily close below that level would negate the bullish outlook opening the way for a further retracement and a retest of 6030 support level followed by 6000.

SPX In Limbo - Which way will it break?SPX in Limbo – Will It Break Up or Down? | SPX Market Analysis 19 Feb 2025 Still waiting. Yep, that’s where we are. The market is about as exciting as watching paint dry, but this is not the time to get impatient. As much as I’d love to jump into a trade just to feel productive, I know better—waiting for the right entry beats chasing the wrong one. Let’s break it down while we sip on tea and pretend to be Zen masters of market patience. --- SPX Deeper Dive Analysis: Why Patience is Everything in Trading There’s an old trading rule that never fails—the market will always move… eventually. But right now, it’s in one of those frustrating, indecisive moods where: Nothing is confirming (so forcing a trade is a bad idea) It’s stuck between two key levels (meaning we wait for the breakout or breakdown) Volume is sluggish (which means false moves are more likely) Still Watching Two Scenarios ☑ Scenario #1 – The Bullish Breakout Entry Needs price to confirm above key resistance No fakeouts—just clean, strong momentum Only then do I consider a bullish trade ☑ Scenario #2 – The Bearish Reversal Entry Needs clear rejection at resistance No weak, choppy movements—just a solid confirmation Only then do I take a bearish setup Why Forcing Trades is a Losing Game Let’s be honest—waiting is boring. But do you know what’s worse? Jumping into a trade just because you're impatient… and then watching it immediately go against you. Every trader, at some point, has thought: "It looks like it’s going to move, maybe I should enter early…" (Nope.) "I don’t want to miss the move…" (You won’t—if you follow the plan.) "Other traders are jumping in—should I?" (Nope. They’re probably wrong.) The right trade at the wrong time is still the wrong trade. What’s Next? ✅ Stay patient—the market will tip its hand soon enough ✅ Wait for clear confirmation—not “I think this might be it” confirmation ✅ Don’t trade out of boredom—trade because the setup is 100% valid 📌 Final Takeaway? Patience = profit. I’m still waiting, tea in hand, and when the market finally makes its move, I’ll be ready. --- Fun Fact 📢 Did you know? The stock market used to take 5 months to process a trade before the 1970s. Now? It happens in milliseconds—but traders still struggle to wait a few hours for the right setup. 💡 The Lesson? Patience has always been a trader’s best tool. Some things never change.
