As posted yesterday, a gap fill for the $S&P 500(.SPX)$ was highly probable given the overextended condition of the price action, making key price levels essential to watch for an early reversal. The Central Daily Level (CDL) shared for today was 7,549.0, and I noted that upward momentum would be endangered if that level was breached. A breakdown below that CDL exposed our downside target of 7,521.0, which was hit by 3:45 PM 🎯 and subsequently breached, suggesting bearish continuation for tomorrow. Because the initial rally was so rapid (and we have studied how suspicious a sharp, early-week jump can be) I also provided key daily levels for the Magnificent Seven to help you manage risk. $Meta Platforms, I

The market saw a bullish breakout today fueled by geopolitical headlines. While Friday’s price action ended on a weak note, the use of levels to assess scenarios is working well. I mapped out in the Weekly Compass that an $S&P 500(.SPX)$ opening above 7417 would be bullish targeting 7,530; the price closed today at 7,554 🎯. “The SPX begins the week weak around its Central Daily Level (CDL) of 7,417. If there are no major negative headlines during these days, reaching 7,530.5.” Not only did the market avoid negative headlines, but it caught a powerful tailwind from positive updates regarding a potential peace agreement in Iran. As also detailed in the Weekly Compass, the Magnificent Seven were likely to bounce. That is what materialized today,

Last week’s Setups Blueprint delivered exceptional results, it presented seven setups with the highest probability of success: $Apple(AAPL)$ : My blueprint anticipated a decline to an extended target of 297 (-3.1%). It extended further, hitting its 3rd support at 290 for a weekly move of -5.3% 🎯. $S&P 500(.SPX)$ : Targeted a -1.2% decline to 7,294. This acted as the support zone where the price bounced on both Wednesday and Thursday 🎯. $Microsoft(MSFT)$ : I expected a decline to 398.6 (-4.3%). The actual move went deeper to -6.3%, exceeding our bearish expectations 🎯. $SPDR Gold ETF(GLD)$ : Targeted an extended bearis

$7,309 was the central daily level for the $S&P 500(.SPX)$ today. The index struggled through the morning and that level acted as resistance, as expected, given that volatility is high and yesterday’s decline in the index was full of conviction. At 1:30 PM, however, the index rallied +0.7% and the central level was recovered based on positive geopolitical news. Also as anticipated, the next resistance, the bullish target zone, was 7,353, and price reached it in a matter of two minutes. After about an hour of consolidation, the rally continued toward 7,440, and the day ended before that milestone was reached. Daily levels become key when the weekly ones are too wide, a product of high volatility and large price moves. That was the case for

As mentioned on Saturday in the Weekly Compass, “A temporary relief spike on Monday is possible,” and that is what the price action presented today. The reason is simple: short-term timeframes were extremely oversold. As usual, the levels played a critical role today. Price action revolved around the Central Daily Level of 7,431, attempting to move north, but the CWL provided to our premium subscribers acted as precise resistance. Price action printed an inside candle for the $NASDAQ 100(NDX)$ and key ETFs like $iShares Russell 2000 ETF(IWM)$ and $VanEck Semiconductor ETF(SMH)$ . Inside candles reflect market uncertainty with neither side establishing clear directio

Hello everyone, The futures session has opened and we are already seeing volatility. Prices opened in the red before staging a quick bounce. As mentioned on Saturday, a spike is possible, but the indices must recover their central weekly levels to provide stronger validation for a sustained bounce. I also outlined the less likely scenario of a gap down. $E-mini S&P 500 - main 2606(ESmain)$ $E-mini Nasdaq 100 - main 2606(NQmain)$ The key readings for this week include: 1. Support and Resistance Levels for the Week Ahead This report covers the $S&P 500(.SPX)$ $NASDAQ 100(NDX)$

U.S. equities closed the first week of June with steep losses as a stalled technology rally and rising interest rate expectations pressured the market. A much stronger than expected May labor report triggered the reversal from overbought levels called during the recent days (and reinforced on Thursday afternoon to paid subscribers). The U.S. economy added 172,000 jobs last month, far above forecasts of 85,000. The unemployment rate held at 4.3%, and upward revisions to March and April added another 93,000 jobs. The data erased expectations for near-term rate cuts. Investors sold government bonds aggressively, pushing Treasury yields higher and strengthening the dollar. Markets are now fully pricing a quarter-point rate increase by year-end under new Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh. Highe

Over a month ago, I updated my $S&P 500(.SPX)$ bullish target to 7,638, utilizing the annual line that has been included in my charts since the beginning of the year. On Wednesday, I highlighted that this target could be considered effectively reached when the market printed all-time highs at 7,620. Following today’s sharp sell-off, that analysis has proven remarkably accurate 🎯. When I establish a target for a weekly, monthly, or annual timeframe, I rely strictly on technical indicators and support and resistance models mapped out well ahead of price action. As my paid subscribers know, this is not the first time an anticipated top has precisely triggered a major sell-off; the February 2025 top stands as another successful example. Yesterday

The $S&P 500(.SPX)$ closed at 7,584.3 (+0.4%) after bouncing from the confluence zone of the 7,520 weekly level and the 7,515 daily level. The first validation of the bounce came at 10:00 AM with the recovery of the 7,534 daily level, followed by a move over the 7,559 central weekly level around 11:00 AM, establishing a bullish milestone that was consolidated when the central daily level of 7,570 held for the remainder of the day. These key levels were highlighted in yesterday’s Market Update (access here), alongside the potential bounce for $Alphabet(GOOG)$ and $Amazon.com(AMZN)$ . Both tech giants validated the bearish setups anticipated in the Weekly Compa

The stock market has entered a highly choppy environment characterized by rapid, day-to-day reversals. For instance, $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ rallied 6.2% on Monday only to reverse -3.2% today. Similarly, $iShares Russell 2000 ETF(IWM)$ posted a +0.93% bullish move yesterday but is down -1.3% today. These sudden, signal-free shifts illustrate just how volatile conditions can get. As we observed during the reversals of February 2025 and February 2026, this type of price action requires extreme caution. Keep in mind that this choppy price action is triggering right after the $S&P 500(.SPX)$ neared $7638, the target I updated a couple of weeks ago. With this week’s recent
