Will Trump’s Tariff Wars Bring the S&P’s Uptrend to an End?Donald Trump’s latest round of tariffs has rattled global markets, reviving memories of the trade wars that defined his first term. With China, Canada, and Mexico retaliating in kind, the fear of an escalating economic conflict has sent stocks tumbling. But will this shake-up be enough to break the S&P 500’s long-term uptrend? Trump’s New Tariff Wars The sweeping trade measures target the US’s largest trade partners, imposing a 25% tariff on Canadian and Mexican imports, along with an additional 10% levy on Chinese goods. The White House has framed these moves as a response to fentanyl trafficking and border security concerns, but markets are treating them as a renewed assault on global trade. China wasted no time in hitting back, slapping tariffs on US agricultural products and restricting exports of key biotech equipment. Canada, too, announced retaliatory measures, targeting $30 billion worth of US goods. The fallout was immediate—Wall Street suffered a sharp selloff, with the S&P 500 closing nearly 2% lower and the Nasdaq shedding 2.6%. Futures suggest European stocks will follow suit, while currency markets have seen a dip in the US dollar. Is the S&P’s Uptrend Cracking? The S&P 500’s relentless 2024 uptrend has struggled to extend into 2025. The index has now failed twice to break above the December highs, breaking last year’s pattern of higher swing highs. Instead, price action has settled into a range, with resistance forming at the December, January, and February swing highs, while support sits near the January lows—right at the bottom of the early-November election gap. For swing traders, the key question is whether a bullish reversal will emerge at the lower end of this range. A strong bounce here could reinforce the current consolidation phase rather than signal a breakdown. Momentum traders, however, will be watching for a decisive break below the range, which could trigger panic selling and accelerate downside momentum. From a long-term perspective, a single shakeout isn’t enough to derail a multi-year bull market. Even a break below the 200-day moving average—while significant for shorter-term trend followers—is unlikely to change the broader outlook for long-term investors. Trends of this magnitude take time and substantial effort to reverse.

Hedged & Waiting - Let The Market Pick A SideHedged and Waiting – Let the Market Pick a Side | SPX Market Analysis 04 Mar 2025 The week starts with a bang—Trump, tweets, and political uncertainty, and markets bouncing like a hyperactive yo-yo. With bullish and bearish triggers already firing, we’re in a "could go either way" situation. Price is lingering at the range low on the daily chart, leaving us with two clear possibilities—a range reversal targeting the highs or a breakout move lower. With major political talks and red flag news this week, volatility could be off the charts. I’m hedged, prepared, and waiting. Whether the market pumps or dumps, I’m simply waiting for the next move to commit—because patience, as always, is the name of the game. --- Deeper Dive Analysis: The market opens with uncertainty at its peak—Trump’s latest comments, political negotiations, and key economic data are all on deck this week, creating wild swings. 📌 Market Structure – A Classic "Could Go Either Way" Setup Bullish & Bearish triggers have fired, but price remains stuck The daily chart shows price hesitating at the range low Two possible scenarios using my 6 money-making patterns: Range Reversal: Price rebounds to target the range high Range Breakout: Price collapses and follows a measured breakout move 📌 What’s Driving the Uncertainty? Political talks in focus – decisions this week could shake the markets Start-of-the-month red flag news – payroll reports, inflation data, and more General market indecision – traders waiting for a confirmed direction 📌 How I’m Approaching It – No Need to Predict, Just React I’m already hedged, meaning a move in either direction is fine Patience is key—waiting for price to confirm its move Letting the market decide—no need to force trades in choppy conditions This is one of those weeks where traders who chase moves will get whiplash, while those who stick to their system will come out ahead. The plan? Let the market "git goin’" before committing capital. --- Fun Fact 📢 Did you know? In 2016, one of Trump’s tweets about Boeing sent the stock tumbling over 1% in minutes, wiping out $1 billion in market value—all over a comment about Air Force One being "too expensive." 💡 The Lesson? A single headline or tweet can move markets, but traders who follow their system instead of knee-jerk reactions are the ones who win in the long run.

S&P500 - we have the buyers rejecting the sell off , chasing ATHHi guys we would be taking a look into the S&P500 after a strong resistance showed by the buyers who denied the sell off, below find detailed technical analysis. The strong ascending channel gives us the following uptrend perspective This performance reflects a robust upward trend, with the index showing resilience despite recent market fluctuations. A notable aspect of this rally is the broadening market participation. While technology giants previously led the charge, 2025 has seen a shift. The healthcare sector has risen 7.1% year-to-date, and consumer staples have surged 8.3%, indicating a defensive investment strategy by investors. This diversification suggests a healthier market foundation, reducing reliance on a few large-cap stocks. From a technical perspective, the S&P 500's position near its all-time high is a positive indicator. Historically, investing at market highs has not precluded further gains. Data from 1950 to 2023 shows that even when investments were made at all-time highs, returns over one, two, and three-year periods were close to the average return of the index. This historical resilience suggests that the current levels may serve as a foundation for continued upward momentum. In summary, the S&P 500's approach to its all-time high, combined with broad sector participation and supportive historical data, paints a positive technical picture. While market dynamics are subject to change, the current indicators support a favorable outlook for the index's continued performance. Entry: 5,995 Target: 6,130 SL: 5,850

SPX500: Possible bounce from key support toward 5,980?FOREXCOM:SPX500 has reached a significant support zone, highlighted by previous price reactions and strong buying interest. This area has acted as a key demand zone, increasing the likelihood of a bullish bounce if buyers step in. The current market structure suggests that if the price confirms support within this zone, we could see a bullish reversal. A successful rebound could push the price toward 5,980 . However, if the price breaks below this zone, the bullish outlook may be invalidated, opening the possibility for further downside. Just my take on support and resistance zones—not financial advice. Always confirm your setups and trade with solid risk management. Best of luck!

SPX a bounce or reversal?The S&P remains in a broader uptrend that began in late October 2023, but this week we saw a test to that structure. Price dipped below this key uptrend line but quickly reclaimed it, finding support on this line as well as the weekly’s 20 EMA. In Friday’s trading session, we saw a high-volume reversal, which could signal a potential bounce. The bigger question remains: is this just a retest before breaking lower, or the start of a true bullish reversal? Right now, I lean toward this being a bounce rather than a full reversal, meaning we could see another attempt to break down through the October trendline in the coming weeks. That said, trades to the upside may still be viable if the market follows through early next week. If price pops above the daily moving averages, I think we are likely see some choppy action as the market decides whether to resume the uptrend or roll over again. Key Levels to Watch: 6,010 Short-term resistance. Price must reclaim this level to continue higher. 5,954 Right on the long-term uptrend area. Holding above this level keeps the reversal in play, but failure increases breakdown risk. 5,840 Breakdown level. A break below this would signal a deeper pullback, likely toward the weekly’s 50 SMA. Potential Scenarios: 🔼 Bullish A hold above 5,954 and a move through 6,010 could lead to a push toward the recent highs. A strong reclaim of the daily moving averages would shift momentum higher. 🔻 Bearish A failure at 5954 or a rejection at the moving averages may confirm this as a retest before another leg down. A break below 5,773 would indicate weakness, and could lead to a deeper correction. ⚖️ Neutral If price moves above the MAs but lacks follow through, we could see chop between 5,840 - 6,010, signaling indecision. I'll be watching this week to see if this reversal holds or if it was just a retest before a breakdown. If selling pressure builds, we could see the first meaningful correction in months.

S&P Oversold bounce backThe S&P 500 (US500) index maintains a bullish bias within the broader long-term uptrend. However, recent price action suggests a period of consolidation following the retest of the all-time high on February 19, 2025. The market is currently at a critical juncture, with the 5918 level acting as a key support zone. Bullish Scenario: The 5918 level serves as a newly established support, aligning with the consolidation range and prior resistance. A corrective pullback towards this level, followed by a bullish bounce, could confirm continued upside momentum. Upside targets include: 6000 (50-day moving average) 6055 (20-day moving average) 6100 over the longer term Bearish Scenario: A confirmed loss of 5918 support with a daily close below this level would invalidate the bullish outlook. This could trigger a deeper retracement, exposing the following downside levels: 5854 (next key support) 5800, with a potential extension to 5777 if selling pressure accelerates Market Outlook: The 5918 level remains pivotal—holding above this support sustains the bullish bias, while a decisive break below it signals potential downside continuation.

US 500 – Strength of Rebound From Friday Low to be TestedThe US 500 bounced 1.4% from its January 2025 lows on Friday, ensuring a volatile week of trading finished on a slightly more positive note than may have been the case earlier in the day. However, the strength of this rally is likely to be put through a stern test in the week ahead. Why? The week is packed full of risk events, including key US economic data, in the form of the forward-looking ISM Manufacturing (Monday 1500 GMT) and Services (Wednesday 1500 GMT) PMI surveys, the latest update on the strength of the US labour market, provided by the Non-farm Payrolls update (Friday 1330 GMT), and earnings from consumer bellwether Target (before the open Tuesday). President Trump’s tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China are due to start on Tuesday, which if they happen are likely to see retaliatory tariffs initiated on the US. Then to top it all off, Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell is speaking on Friday (1730 GMT). The topic, the US economic outlook. Wow! There is, of course, always the potential for unscheduled social media comments from President Trump to factor into the volatility mix, like those last night which sent crypto markets sharply higher for a period, as well as updates on the geo-political situations in Ukraine and the Middle East. Being prepared is important, and that includes knowing the chart levels and trends as we look at the US 500 this morning. Technical Update: Friday's Recover in Focus It has certainly been a sharp sell-off in the US 500 index since the all-time high was registered at 6144 on February 19th. However, it’s probably too early to tell if this represents the first signs of a negative sentiment shift, or as has been the case previously, dips in price are being used as an opportunity to buy a market still within an uptrend. Potential Support Levels: The basic definition of an uptrend in price, is a pattern of higher highs and higher lows. This reflects buyers are not only using price weakness as a buying opportunity but are also willing to pay a higher price. It could be argued this suggests positive sentiment has been evident. While this is no guarantee that this is still the case in the US 500 index, looking at the chart above, this type of positive pattern has been in place since the sell-off in price to the August 5th 2024 low at 5089. So far at least, the current US 500 index level remains above 5757 which was the January 13th 2025 last correction low of the uptrend pattern, and traders may be watching this level, feeling it might be pivotal for the next trending pattern. If closes materialise below 5757 over the coming days or weeks, traders may start to feel risks are turning towards a deeper retracement of the August 2024 to February 2025 price strength, with the 38% retracement level of that move providing a potential support focus at 5741, the 50% retracement at 5616, and the 62% point at 5491. Potential Resistance Levels: That said, while the January 13th low at 5757 continues to hold any price weakness, it is possible the uptrend pattern in price remains in place. If that’s the case, knowing what resistance levels might be worthwhile monitoring could be helpful. As the chart above shows, last Friday did see a rally as a reactive recovery to the recent sharp sell-off. These recovery themes are so far being developed further this morning, with the index currently trading above 5952. This level is equal to the 38% retracement of the February price decline. Now, this price break above this first retracement resistance level does need to sustained on a closing basis, but even then, traders may well focus on a possible higher resistance at 6025/37, which is equal to the 62% retracement and matches the current level of the declining Bollinger mid-average. It is possible closing breaks above this resistance area are needed to suggest the potential of a more extended phase of price strength, even extension of the current uptrend pattern.

Bear Swing Ends, Bullish Setup Begins - Here's what's next...Bear Swing Ends, Bullish Setup Begins – Here’s What’s Next | SPX Market Analysis 03 Mar 2025 Last week’s bear swing trade wrapped up beautifully, moving from range highs to range lows, before Friday delivered the perfect reversal. Price tagged the lower Bollinger Band, turned with multiple bullish pulse bars, and gave us a classic V-shaped price action entry—the perfect signal to exit the last bear trades and start the bullish swing. Now, I’m targeting 6,000 and 6,140, with hedge/bear triggers set below the recent lows. Meanwhile, Trump just dropped a bombshell over the weekend, hinting at a U.S. crypto reserve backed by five tokens. Could this inject some extra spice into the markets this week? Let’s dive in. --- Deeper Dive Analysis: The bear swing from last week completed as expected, moving from the larger range highs to the range lows, where Friday delivered a clean reversal setup. 📌 The Trade Setup – The Bullish Turn is In Price tagged the lower Bollinger Band – a key reversal zone Multiple bullish pulse bars confirmed momentum shift A V-shaped price action entry signaled the start of the bullish swing Exited the last bear trades as the trend flipped 📌 Bullish Program & Market Structure Now targeting: Smaller range low from last week’s 30-min chart Major resistance at 6,000 and 6,140 Hedge/bear triggers set below recent lows to manage risk 📌 Market News – Trump’s Crypto Reserve Idea Over the weekend, Trump hinted at a U.S. crypto reserve backed by five tokens This could spark volatility as traders absorb the implications Will this push risk-on sentiment higher, or cause unexpected market shakeups? The bullish program is in full motion, and I’ll be watching how price reacts at key levels this week while keeping an eye on how the market digests the crypto reserve news. --- Fun Fact 📢 Did you know? In 2010, a Bitcoin developer bought two pizzas for 10,000 BTC, now worth over $500 million—marking the first recorded Bitcoin transaction for goods. 💡 The Lesson? Markets evolve fast, and what seems trivial today could be worth millions in the future. With Trump hinting at a U.S. crypto reserve, could we be at the start of another major shift in financial history?
