SPY - Failed 2U week after going outside month the week before. Not super shocking, but now we sit in an interesting spot. The new month will open inside bar and has to either take out previous month highs (Which is ATH) or Jan Lows. Seeing that the range is pretty wide for downside, It will take less effort to make new ATH. Not that it means a whole lot, but that...

USD with a failed 2D week to go 2-2 rev to the upside and take out pivot highs. This occurs at the same time as the EURO looking weak with the most interesting of the 3 charts. EURO with the potential 2-1-2D week after clearing Motherbar highs two weeks ago and now giving us the actionable signal back through to motherbar lows. Price was stuck in the motherbar...

Weekly Watchlist and Market Analysis Using #TheStrat Indexes - SPY went failed 2D week following the previous week going 3 and we nearly went 3 on this last week, but came up short with little room to go to previous week highs. This week we look to go 3-2-2U to confirm the month being failed 2D that has now retraced more than 50% of the previous months range,...

SPY - Monthly reversal is now being negated as we moved back above the monthly 2-2d trigger at Prev Month Low. We are also now failed 2D coming back through previous week range. The daily went 2-2 rev, but closed failed 2u as we made higher highs, but closed red near mid range of the day. The question for tomorrow is do we continue pushing back through last weeks...

Indexes - SPY had a really interesting start to the year this past week. For starters, we went 2-1-2d and hit magnitude on Thursday before seeing price retrace back through all of the weeks previous range before making new weekly highs, and closing green. We now have 1-2-2U potential on all indexes, as well as a LOT of names off my scanner. Its also worth noting...

AMEX:SPY - Short week from Xmas leaves us with an inside weekly setup to start the new year. The way 2-1-X and 3-1-X setups (Inside bar setups) work, is they either confirm what happened previously, or negate it. In this specific scenario on the weekly, we have a large red week of selling (2D, followed by a pretty neutral inside week (1). Next week either goes...

AMEX:SPY - Huge sell off across the board from FOMC news on Wednesday. SPY sold off down through previous Broadening Formation range reclaiming previous downside pivot just below 684. So with that in mind, we expand out of the BF below that pivotal low, or come back through range above it. With SPY currently setup to potentially go 3-2 daily, we look to see...

SPY - Failing attempts all over to reclaim highs and lows, so we are making new intraday Broadening Formations. The current one as seen in the chart, is looking to potentially head back through previous range if unable to continue to the upside pivots around 608.40 and 609. Given we have FOMC news Wednesday, I am not expecting too much to happen tomorrow as we...

SPY Analysis: Month is 2U but back under previous M high and close to flipping red. Last week was 2D but failed to get to magnitude and closed red, but above the reversal trigger at previous week lows. Daily was 2D on Friday, so the daily actionable signal would be a 2D-2U reversal if buyers were strong enough to make a higher high on the daily come Monday. To get...

SPY - Closed previous D/W/M close to HOD after making new ATH, so the D/W/M all finished bright green. No evidence of sellers anywhere since every TF above the 60 is currently green. 60 closed slight green, but this can easily be justified as eod corrective activity since all 60 min candles before the last one of the day were green, and every TF above the 60 is...

SPY - Took a break mid last week from watchlists and trading. Looking at the daily chart, I am seeing a few things. We have a gap created, 2-2 reversal, and double engulfing weekly chart. Overall I think we are neutral/bullish from here, but one thing that concerns me is that gap to the downside. Monday I will be looking for a potential engulfing day if we can...

SPY - I mentioned yesterday I was bearish/neutral going into today and we got our bearish movement. Tomorrow is FOMC day. With that I am neutral and plan on not trading unless I see a perfect setup. I do hope we see bearish continuation but I have little to no reason to expect it Watchlist: COST and NVDA 2-1 daily setups. Not much else to say as I plan on...

(Short list again today) SPY - We were bullish going into the week/day if you saw my list last night. Got the upside we wanted early on before retreating back to open price. This shows me that we had a neutral/weak day and can expect neutral/weak movement tomorrow. With FOMC wednesday anything can happen, but I expect one more decent 2-3$ move before Wednesday....

SPY - Crazy finish to the week and month. Bulls absolutely controlled Friday and pushed us even higher on the weekly to create an engulfing week. We had super strong closes on the daily, weekly, and monthly. I cannot imagine a world where we don't push even higher next week. I would imagine we test the 418 and 420 levels at some point. Was not expecting this at...

Short Watchlist today. Will go into details from this week on sunday nights list for next week. SPY - Wanted consolidation or light pull back today and got a massive green day instead. Overall was not expecting this, but to be fair with the amount of dropping we did back to back leading up to today, I think it was fair to see this kind of range. Anyone who played...

SPY - Saw more downside as we had predicted last night. Made some solid range to the downside. I am expecting tomorrow to be a repeat of today or an inside day. We are reaching weekly downside exhaustion so I would say there is no reason to not be bearish... yet. But tomorrow could be a day of consolidation/retrace since we have had such big drops the past two...

SPY - Was bullish going into today due to 2-2 daily reversal. Obviously that prediction didnt go well, but we did trigger the 2-2 reversal on the weekly which was one of my goals for us for this week so I am pleased with that. We had an insanely bearish day today as well as a bearish close so I expect some more downside tomorrow at least in premarket or shortly...
