SPY trade ideas

Spy 620 EOYHello Traders... Been awhile.. Figured time for an idea.. I see us hitting around 620 EOY... For now we might get a little dip this week before we head up there the last two weeks of the year. I see something happening around February 1 then something again around March/April. I have a feeling SPY/SPX wants to tag 666/6666 since 2008 bottom was 666 .. Will we head straight there as shown with trendlines around April 2025? Or will we have a pullback at end of January... then head back up that way into the summer. I see us peaking around of Summer 2025. Then maybe have weaker/selloffs into 2026.. My thinking as of now.. see how things go. Feb 1 is ? .. Some think it will peak around then.. It's possible..But I'm leaning towards maybe a pullback at most... and at least...nothing much..and we continue to April then get the bigger pullback. But I also see another wave summer 2025.

SPY should go up tomorrow ....I am using the Heikin Ashi Candlesticks as I find you can see a definite directional pattern with them on the chart itself. Typically, you should wait until you see two green candles, but if you look at some of the indicators on the 6 hour chart, you can see that it is indicating a bullish move. The 7 hour and daily indicators should follow soon. (I will post these hourly charts following this idea) After the US election last month, the market shifted a little in the amount of days the SPY went up. In the month of November, the market only went up about 7 days but it did hit an upward move of 32 points and the Fibonacci number. I believe the market was shifting in November to get ready for the US Thanksgiving and Christmas as well as other upcoming events such as the Fed Meeting in December and other events in the January. The SPY will go up until about Nov 25th before moving sideways for a few days while US Thanksgiving is nearing. After US Thanksgiving and Black Friday, the market will continue to go up until Dec. 9 to 11th which is about a 12 to 14 day move using the green Heikin Ashi candlesticks. This was the typical length of time of the move of the previous months with the exception of November. In the last few months, I have observed that the up trend goes up between 12 to 14 days. So I will be out by Dec 10th. If the market hits the 1.619 Fibonacci, which is about 609, I am out. The SPY has been usually moving about 32 points per month on average. If it hits a 32 point upward move (616), I will be out. (but it will hit the 1.619 Fibonacci line before it hits the 32 point move) I believe the SPY will go up for the month of December and January before going down in February. I have been noticing that the market goes up for about 3 months before having a more of a downward trend in the fourth month. The market should technically go down after the middle of January and for approximately a month. During that time, the market may shift a little in time. (I am looking forward to that month to learn more.) If you look at the indicators on the 6 hour charts, specifically the DMI, Stochastic RSI, and the MacD, you can see that they are starting to shift to indicate a bullish move. Typically, I used the half hour, the hourly and the four-hour chart indicators to confirm that this is indeed a bullish move. I need all those indicators to align to confirm a trend. I only trade with the strength of the trend not the retractions. And typically (not always) I wait for at least 2 green Heikin Ashi candles to confirm trend before I enter. These are my rules that I follow. As I have said in my previous charts, I find the 5 minute indicators show what will happen in the next half hour, the 10 minute indicators show what will happen in the next hour, the half hour indicators show what will happen in the daily charts and the hour indicators will show what will happen over the next few days. (My opinion, not fact) I trade simple ... if I can't see the trade in a few simple steps, then this is not the trade for me. Also, I explain my trades in more detail for me, not for you. Repetition is the key for me. If I repeat it over enough in my head, it will more likely stick. Happy Trading everyone!!! :-) And here's to making oodles of money or at least learning something if you don't.

SPY Technical Analysis and Options Strategy with GEX GammaGamma Levels and Observations Using GEX Profile: The GEX Profile provides critical insights into the underlying price action by identifying gamma-related support and resistance zones. Here's a breakdown of the key levels derived from the GEX indicator: 1. Resistance Levels: * 610: Significant call gamma resistance. Price movement above this zone often requires increased buying pressure as market makers adjust their hedging positions to counterbalance gamma exposure. * 605: A pivotal resistance level where SPY struggled to break above. This area caps bullish momentum as market makers' hedging activities intensify to maintain stability. 2. Support Levels: * 600: A major put gamma support level. This zone tends to attract buying activity because market makers may adjust their hedging positions to provide stability as the price approaches. * 595: The next gamma-supported area below 600. This level acts as a secondary buffer, absorbing selling pressure as gamma exposure decreases. Price Action and Gamma Interaction: * Today’s price action showed a clear respect for the 600 gamma support, reflecting increased hedging activities by market makers. This level stabilized the price as it approached, attracting buying interest. * On the upside, 605 gamma resistance acted as a ceiling, showing stabilization from market makers' hedging adjustments. A break above this level may indicate reduced hedging pressure and a bullish shift. Options Strategy Plan: 1. Bullish Scenario: * Strategy: Vertical Call Spread * Setup: * Buy the 605 Call. * Sell the 610 Call. * Target: Profit from a move toward 610. * Risk Management: Close the position if SPY drops below 600. 2. Bearish Scenario: * Strategy: Vertical Put Spread * Setup: * Buy the 600 Put. * Sell the 595 Put. * Target: Gain from a decline toward 595. * Risk Management: Exit if SPY reclaims 605. 3. Range-Bound Scenario: * Strategy: Iron Condor * Setup: * Upper Range: Sell the 605 Call, Buy the 610 Call. * Lower Range: Sell the 600 Put, Buy the 595 Put. * Target: Profit from SPY staying between 600 and 605. * Risk Management: Adjust or close the trade if the price moves outside the range. Selecting the Best Expiration Date for Options: 1. Short-Term Trades: * If you anticipate a quick move (1-3 days), use weekly options (closest expiration) to benefit from higher delta sensitivity and lower upfront costs. * For instance: * Bullish Trade: Use the nearest Friday expiration for the 605/610 Call Spread. * Bearish Trade: Use the nearest Friday expiration for the 600/595 Put Spread. 2. Medium-Term Trades: * If you expect the move to play out over 1-2 weeks, select options expiring 7-14 days out. This helps balance theta decay with enough time for the move to develop. * Example: * Bullish: Buy the 605 Call Spread expiring next Friday. * Bearish: Buy the 600 Put Spread expiring next Friday. 3. Hedging or Longer-Term Views: * For broader market hedging or if you're less certain about timing, use monthly options (15-45 days out). These allow time for the trade to develop and reduce the impact of time decay. * Example: * Buy the 610 Call (bullish) or the 595 Put (bearish) expiring in the next monthly cycle. Projection: * Bullish Case: SPY breaks above 605, targeting 610 with momentum-driven buying. Reduced selling pressure above this level may support further upside. * Bearish Case: Failure to hold 600 could drive SPY toward 595, as hedging activities intensify to counter selling momentum. Hedging Explained in Context: Gamma hedging impacts price movements significantly. Market makers adjust their positions based on gamma exposure: * At positive gamma levels like 605, market makers sell into strength, stabilizing price movements. This creates resistance. * At negative gamma levels like 600, market makers buy into weakness, supporting the price and reducing volatility. These dynamics allow traders to anticipate where market makers might influence price action. Trading Plan for Tomorrow: 1. Bullish Approach: * Look for a sustained move above 605 with increased volume. * Target: 610. * Stop-loss: Below 603. 2. Bearish Approach: * Watch for a break below 600 with strong selling pressure. * Target: 595. * Stop-loss: Above 602. 3. Neutral Strategy: * If price consolidates between 600 and 605, consider range-bound strategies like an iron condor.

Hey Spy Lovers check this Candlestick Scenarios for future move I suspect it’s time for a good pullback. As we can see, the price continues to fluctuate within the ascending channel, but there are two scenarios I anticipate where a pullback might occur in the coming days. Note: Every pullback is simply a very natural price movement. This does not mean that we are in a bearish market at the moment. If the overall structure is bullish, pullbacks are just part of the cyclical nature of price movement. Here are two potential scenarios in case the price decides to make this natural pullback: Scenario 1: If you compare the two types of candles I marked on the left, notice how the candle patterns have more volumetric, medium-sized bodies than the other. This indicates strength; however, we are not exempt from a natural pullback, which, to complete a trending cycle, broke the structure itself to the upside. Scenario 2: Let’s assume the price becomes quite exhausted and begins the pullback I am anticipating. I have marked two zones of great importance where the price will most likely rebound: First Pullback Zone (equivalent to a block order): Notice how, coincidentally, this zone touches the support of my ascending channel. Coincidence? Second Rest or Pause Zone: This zone must be considered because if there is a structural break, the price may drop lower to this point. Note: The overall structure remains bullish unless a lower structure or demand zone is broken, Until then, we can only consider pullbacks and impulses as part of the price cycle in its upward movement. Thank you for supporting my analysis. TRADE SAFE!

SPY/QQQ Plan Your Trade for 12-11: Flat Down PatternToday's pattern suggests the markets will slide downward after the CPI data came in as expected. I believe the markets are going to roll into an Excess Phase Peak pattern over the next 5+ days - setting up a big potential downward price swing (the Anomaly Event) before the end of 2024. Gold is moving into a CRUSH pattern today. We may see a very big price move (I suspect higher) today as traders move to hedge weakness and market concerns globally. Bitcoin recently set a new lower low, showing us that the dominant trend is Bearish. Bitcoin set up another potential Excess Phase Peak pattern, totaling four current Excess Phase Peak patterns in this broad sideways consolidation range. The breakout, either to the upside or downside, in Bitcoin could be very explosive. Remember, we continue to trade into a low liquidity price trend throughout the end of 2024. So stay cautious and stay aware of the risks for the Anomaly Event. Get some. #trading #research #investing #tradingalgos #tradingsignals #cycles #fibonacci #elliotwave #modelingsystems #stocks #bitcoin #btcusd #cryptos #spy #es #nq #gold

SPY/S&P500: in the mid-term resistance zonePrice has approached the upper border of the mid-term resistance zone: 598-612. Until price closes bellow 612, I am preparing for the start of a correction to mid-term support: 564-540. If price moves confidently above 612, than next resistance target is at 635 level. The macro-structure of the uptrend from 2022 lows is well intact until price holds above 540 level and assumes higher targets for 2025 at 635-640-670 levels. I wish everyone Merry Christmas and successful and profitable 2025! Thank you for your attention.

$SPY December9, 2024AMEX:SPY December9, 2024 15 Minutes. As can be seen in chart AMEX:SPY struggling around 608 609 levels. The retracement i was expecting due to oscillator did not happen but it resulted in sideways movement. For the rise 597.28 to 609.07 604.5 is approximately 38.2% retracement. Also for the fall 609.07 to 607.07 to 608.38 605 is 1.618 times extension on reversals. At the moment AMEX:SPY is converged in 3 moving averages 9,21,50. We have 100 averages sat 606 levels. That is my first target for the moment. Day is still strong, and I have 635-640 as target. We have 606 as 9 averages in day so that should give good support on a reversal.

Testing Candlestick Patterns on Real DataIn his fundamental book "Encyclopedia of Candlestick Charts," Thomas Bulkowski tested dozens of candlestick patterns using S&P market data. His research revealed that many well-known patterns perform quite differently from what conventional wisdom suggests. In this video, I’ll show you how to conduct a similar analysis using your own data to determine whether those fancy "Hammers" and "Shooting Stars" actually give you an edge in trading.

$SPY correction incoming? Back below $550AMEX:SPY is putting in a short term top here. All of the signs are there if you know what to look at. For example, NASDAQ:TLT up 2% today. AMEX:SPY sold off throughout the day. Crypto selling off. Volatility starting to react at the bottom of the range. Dollar continuing to rise. The chart also is failing at resistance. I could see one more attempt at a move higher, and if we fail at $602 or lower and fall back below $597, it'll be extremely bearish and the confidence in this move playing out strengthens. I think we'll see $527-531 over the next couple of weeks. Playing the move through CBOE:UVXY calls.

SPY CORRECTION END 2024 - 2025As we can see, there has been a correction since the presentation of the FOMC meeting, with a break in the bullish structure we had in the indices. SPY broke bullish structures in 2-hour and 4-hour timeframes, and we should recover the daily channel to maintain an upward movement in the daily timeframe. Como podemos ver tenemos una correccion desde la presentacion de la reunion de la FOMC, con una ruptura de las estructura alcista que teniamos en los indices, SPY rompio estructuras alcista en temporalidades de 2horas, 4 horas y deberiamos recuperar el canal de la diaria para mantener un movimento alcista en la temporalidad de la diaria.
