SPX: the best week in 2024Posted inflation data for the US, which were below market expectations, increased optimism among market participants that the Fed will make its first move on the rate cuts in September this year. This was the major fuel for the significant increase in the value of the S&P 500 index during the week, which had its best performance week during 2024. The index started the week at the level of 5.341 and reached the highest level on Friday's trading session of 5.554. The index is currently only 2% lower from it's all time highest level, reached in July this year. Aside from inflation, the Retail Sales in July were 1% higher on a monthly basis, which was above market estimate of 0.3%. This represents an additional sign that the US economy is not at all on the glimpse of the recession, but quite opposite, based on macro data, it stands in a relatively solid shape. The biggest weekly winners are again tech stocks. Market favorite Nvidia managed to gain an incredible 18% during the week. Apple and Microsoft were traded higher by some 3% and 4% on a weekly level. Another aspect which should be also considered is that the majority of companies on Wall Street posted quarterly results. The analysts are noting that around 78% of the listed companies posted results which were higher from the market estimate, which additionally impacted positive market expectations, and pushed the index to the higher grounds.

Up for SPX500 USDHi traders, SPX500USD played out exactly like I've said in my outlook before my holiday. After it finished the bigger correction up into the gap it dropped very fast into the predicted area. It swept the weekly liquidity and went up again for the next impulse leg last week. Now for next week we could see a small correction down and more upside. Trade idea: Wait for a correction down to finish. After a change in orderflow to bullish and a small correction down on a lower timeframe you could 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! Eduwave

S&P 500 Daily Chart Analysis For Week of Aug 16, 2024Technical Analysis and Outlook: The S&P 500 Index demonstrated significant resiliency during this week's trading session, surpassing the Inner Interim Index Rally 5443 target. Following a springy rebound, the current market price action is positioned below the newly established significant Mean Res 5564. Anticipated interim downward pressure toward the Mean Support at 5445 is probable before the index resumes its upward trajectory. The prevailing price action indicates a sustained uptrend towards the Inner Interim Index Rally at 5666, with the achieved targets expected to exert considerable downward pressure.

Markets Love the Bulls!!! Close to All-Time HighsS&P pulled back 78% of the fall Nasdaq pulled back 61% of the fall Dow pulled back 78% of the fall IWM pulled back 50% of the fall Impressive rips for 2 weeks of trading for the "buy the dip" community. This week's direction was steady in futures, and gaps higher in indexes from opening to closing bell. I'm keeping the charts as clean and simple as possible. September and October are rarely good months for the markets so perhaps all-time highs are a bit of a stretch, but we're much closer now than we were August 5th when everyone was freaking out. Upcoming news for next week: FOMC Minutes US PMI Jackson Hole (with Powell Speech) My defensive plays are focused through August and September expirations, but I'll likely continue to add hedges if appropriate. Have a great weekend and back at it next week!!!

Panic over?Earlier this morning, US stock index futures were building on yesterday’s impressive, and broad-based gains. On Thursday investors rushed in to hoover up equities with the mid-cap Russell 2000 leading the way to finish 2.5% higher. Tech wasn’t far behind, with the NASDAQ adding 2.3%. The Dow and the S&P 500 gained 1.4% and 1.6% respectively. The gains came on the back of a strong set of Retail Sales numbers, and on another dip in weekly Jobless Claims. Add these to the positive inflation numbers earlier in the week and it gave investors all the excuse they needed to rush back into the market. The data is just what the Federal Reserve needs to justify a rate cut next month. Inflation continues to drift back towards its 2% target, while the labour market enjoys a ‘Goldilocks’ situation. The Unemployment Rate has ticked higher, taking some of the tightness out of the sector, but not by enough to scare the horses by raising fears of an imminent recession. This also means that the market has gone back to pricing in a 25 basis point cut in September, rather than the panicky 50 basis points forecast earlier this month. Both the S&P and NASDAQ have now recorded six successive positive sessions, and are back to where they were at the end of July, before the market rout. Yesterday also saw a big move across US Treasuries. Yields soared as investors dumped bonds and put the money back to work in equities. This indicates a strong recovery in risk appetite with sentiment towards stocks turning positive once again. But it also should be a little bit of a warning sign that this sharp turnaround could be a tad overdone. Nothing goes up in a straight line forever. Yet the NASDAQ 100 and S&P 500 have now gained 13% and 9% respectively from their lows on 5th August. Those gains may be enough to entice early buyers to book some decent profits.

COIN Short Idea - The Golden SetupI made a video yesterday about how I thought the short opportunity on NQ and the overall market was one of the best I'd ever seen in my trading career. I believe that is yet to to fully play out and we'll see what happens, but in the meantime I wanted to share what are my two favorite trade ideas and positions in the market right now. These setups have a very high chance of success in my opinion and if not, risk is fairly tight. I would take this trade 10/10 times, I would always take a setup like this when my strategy tells me it is this good. You must trade what your strategy says regardless of fear and greed, you will win over longer periods of time if you develop a winning strategy that you stick to and remain disciplined at all times. GME is the other one which I've also posted ideas about recently. Just wanted to review these setups have triggered and I'm actually in the positions. I'll update when the trades are closed, should be interesting.
