Good Day and I hope you are well.
sp500 e-mini futures
Quote from last week:
bear case: What do the bears have going for them? Nothing and if anything, pure speculation and low probability stuff. The chart is showing multiple wedges, we are clearly in multiple third pushes up (W5) and volume is drying up. Once the institutions begin taking profits on the magnificent 7, we will see big moves down to end the trend and enter a trading range. The bull trend line around 5300 will be hit in the next 2-4 weeks and afterwards I think we will form a lower high before we will be on our way to 5000 again. As of now I think bears want to see a big climactic bull bar to 5600 before they begin shorting again.
comment: Market did exactly what I wrote in my last bear case sentence. Climactic bull bar on Monday with some follow through Tuesday and Wednesday to almost 5600 and then a pullback. Bulls touched the big upper bull trend line which began on 2023-02-02. Bears broke below the very tight bull channel but just so slightly and with tails below the daily bars. I expect the market to retest the highs again before another second leg down, which could then form into a decent pullback, like the one we had in April. Market sentiment is max bullishness from everyone everywhere and the posts about “this time it’s different” have become common. It’s the fomo phase where your Mother asks if she should buy some Nvidia stocks.
current market cycle: End of the bull trend is near. Will soon see a bigger pullback.
key levels: 5400 – 5600
bull case: Bulls will probably retest the highs or even make a higher high soon. First pullbacks / low 1, is a buy signal in a bull trend. After that retest, I – again, have nothing for the bulls. We are at the peak of this bubble imo and that’s where you get cautious and not even more bullish. Nvidia will touch 100 over the next weeks, if not days.
Invalidation is below 5400.
bear case: The profit taking has begun imo. All bullish targets are met and we are trading at multiple upper resistance lines and prices. The daily ema is 80 points away and will get tested soon. Bears see the 3 pushes up from end of May and now want a decent pullback to the bull trend line around 5400, wich is also the breakout retest.
Invalidation is above 5620.
outlook last week:
No interest in buying here unless it’s a momentum scalp. I will look for weakness and a trade back to a test of the daily 20ema which is around 5400. Bulls are still heavily favored in terms of probability.
→ Last Sunday we traded 5502 and now we are at 5534. New ath was 5587, so my outlook was good for 85 points. You. Are. Most. Welcome. Compare that to Newsletters who cost 130$ per month and include planetary constellations in their market analysis.
short term: Don’t get too bearish too soon. You never want to try to pick a top or a bottom. Let the big bois with endless money do that for you and follow along. Expecting another push for retest of the highs, followed by another leg down, as painted in my chart.
medium-long term: Bull trend is in the last legs and this will soon pull back much further and form a big trading range. I gave 5600 months ago and we are close enough to it or will touch it next week. Afterwards the money is made on the downside. 5300 over the next 1-2 weeks, followed by 5000 over the summer.
current swing trade: None but will enter new shorts next week.
Chart update: This is my best guess on how the next 3-9 months will play out. Two-legged correction down to 5000 over the next 4-8 weeks, followed by a last lower high before the next big bear trend will begin. That’s only price-wise but not time wise. Could get there much faster or much slower.Update: slightly adjusted the bigger two legged correction and added a smaller one.
