ES Morning Update June 25th 2024

Yesterday was pretty much as expected as we bounced early in the day and pulled back late in the day. I think this chop will continue all week with bounces intraday and small pullbacks too. I'm sure they will flip it from day to day where we sell off first and rally second but in the end the market should stay in a fairly tight range from the all time high down to as low as 5400, but that's only if the white trendline fails. Otherwise 5450+ seems more likely to hold the dips as that's around the zone where the white trendline is at now. Nothing more to add as I covered it all yesterday.

Have a blessed day.

Last Friday was as expected, a nothing day. We did have an early bounce but it didn't hold and we pulled back again and just chopped the rest of the day closing slightly down. This is the last week of the June and as I said previously "turns" commonly happen around the end or beginning of every month. The technicals are overbought pretty much everywhere, from the weekly, daily and down to the 6hr chart.

But the time frames less then 6hr could get oversold early this week and allow for one more push up into the end of the month to hit the FET of 5618, which I think still has pretty good odds of it being reached. If this happens then the "turn" will be a move down of course, whereas if instead we pullback then the turn will be up... and this really feels like a lower odds forecast as I just think we are so close to the FET, and the bigger time frames are so overbought, that a significant pullback is coming. Not a 1,2 or even 3 percent move, but a possible 10% move, which should last for a few week I'd think so that the weekly chart can reset from being so overbought.

As far as "what" could spark the big move down I point to the CPI on July 11th as a possible one, and that's also the date President Trump gets his sentence about whether or not he goes to jail for being a patriot convicted of 34 felonys with no actual charges. Yes, we now live in a communism country, and if we pullback early July, (an A wave?) and bounce into the 11th (a B wave?), we could have a nasty drop follow that opens the door again for the FP on the SPY from the Yahoo site as a possible target again.

The 11th of July will be an important date for sure, and normally we pullback some in front of important dates due to the "unknown" factor, as most traders want to be less exposed. This could take the form of an A wave down and B wave up, or maybe do the entire ABC in front of it and bottom into it? I doubt that happens but anything is possible I guess. We could also top into the date but again, there's low odds of that happening in my opinion. Most likely we top this week or early next week around my FET and then start down into the 11th with a possible one or two day squeeze for the B wave in front of (or after) that important date.

For the short term I think we pullback to find support around the rising white trendline, which is about 5500 or so on the ES, then bounce and possibly do one more trip down to test it again (might pierce it?) before we rally back up for the move to hit by FET at 5618, which again... could be hit by the end of this week, or early next week.

Have a blessed day.

Finally... a pullback. But we failed to hit the FET at 5618, so I'm very leary of this move as I really think they will hit the FET before we get a deeper pullback. If it doesn't happen today then I'll still be looking for it to hit next week. Keep in mind that today is OPEX so I would not expect a whole lot to happen. They tend to "pin" the market at some level for max pain on options, so we could go sideways today.

Next week is bearish from a Seasonality point of view so the bulls will have that going against them, and very overbought charts. So the bulls will not want to give up much ground today if they plan on doing that last move up to the FET next week, which could happen in the Sunday futures or Monday open? I'll end it here as I don't have anything else to add.

Have a great weekend.

Almost at the FET of 5618 now as the bulls continue to grind higher inch by inch. I could say it's overbought until I'm blue in the face but that doesn't seem to matter when the bulls have a target that they want to hit, and with tomorrow being OPEX it wouldn't shock me to see it hit into the close Friday. I posted a wave count on 6/6 showing what I think is most likely, and below is that chart again.

As you can see the pullback would be deeper then the 5/31 low but higher then the 4/19 low. The part I got wrong on it was thinking that S1 would end at the rising green (or white) trendline and start S2 from there. Instead we seem to be headed start up to the FET at 5618.39 first, which should then end S1 and allow S2 to start. It tells me now that the wave count is probably wrong and needs adjusted as S1 seems too long to be right. So on 6/11 I did an alternative wave count, which is below.

On it I still point to the rising green (or white) trendline as the end of the move before the pullback, so that was wrong, but the wave count could still be accurate. If we reach the FET on this rally then we could be completing M5 inside L3, but the 5 waves inside the move would need relabeled as again, S5 seems too long in length compared to S3. Guessing the wave count is really hard and I have to continue to adjust, but the important thing here is that we are very likely going to hit the FET at 5618 this week and from there I expect a pullback into next week, which really the most important thing to get right for trading.

Have a blessed day.

A whole lot of nothing yesterday as market continued to chop and inch higher. This week is OPEX, so it's perfectly normal for this kind of action to happen. We are close now to the FET at 5618, and it could be hit at any time. I don't have anything else to add that hasn't already been said, so I'll end it here.

Have a blessed day.

The bulls didn't even pause at all yesterday, but went up steady all day. Not much to do here but watch and wait as my FET's are quite close now and could be hit any day now. We are very overbought on all time frames but again, the market can stay overbought longer then most can stay short.

I don't see any reason to even think about shorting right now as the market looks like it won't stop until it hits the upside FET of 5618.39, which reminds me a lot of the prior FET of 5334.39, and that one was hit on 4/1 with a high of 5333.50... but it got close on 3/22 at 5311.75, and then chopped for a week into the 1st.

Will that repeat again? It's very possible that we put in a top this week below the new FET, and then chop into the end of this month before we run up to 5618 or so on the 28th. That would frustrate a lot of bears and it would suck in a ton of bulls thinking the week plus chop was another bull flag that was going to breakout huge with another 200-300 point squeeze. But if it repeats the prior pattern it will just barely go higher to hit the FET and the rollover to start a real multi-week pullback.

Have a blessed day.

We have the roll from the June contract on the ES to the September now, which added 58 points on it instantly. I forgot about that when I did the wave count last week, so now it's busted as we are going higher and it's looking like the FET of 5618.39 could be hit before we get a serious move down.

The rising white trendline held for awhile but this contract roll caused a gap over it, so now it will be support. Of course we are overbought now on all charts pretty much, which is from the weekly to the daily and the 6hr chart. Here's the weekly...

So if, that's a BIG "if", we do rally up to the FET this week the market will be super overbought then and I could see nasty fast drop happen afterwards. I mean we could see something like the drop that happened after the January 2018 top, which was super fast. The charts will be that overbought if we rally up to 5618.39, which is crazy to think it could do it but we all know that overbought charts can get more and more overbought. Below is the daily chart...

The FET on the SPX is only 5581.86, so we could see this happen for sure as it's not too much high on either the cash or futures.  As far as turn dates, if we are going to rally up first, the 28th of this month will be the next important one.  So if we go no where this week but instead we just build another bull flag then I'd think we'll hit the FET on the 28th to finally top this market out.

I thought that we'd actually go down into the 28th, which is still possible, but we'd have to top today I think.  If that happens then we can drop into the 28th to put in a low before another strong move up happens.  Now if this happens I don't think it will be that deep, basically just a higher low.

However, if instead we rally up to the FET into the 28th then we could have a very serious drop follow, and possibly then that FP on the SPY is hit... who knows for sure?  All I can say is that the FET is a magnet and could be hit before any real move down happens.

Have a blessed day.

As expected we had a wave 1 down and 2 up yesterday, of some degree, which isn't important to know right now. There could be many 1's and 2's over the next few days before we get a good move down. As for today I don't see a lot happening as it's a Friday as we all know that it's common for the week of the FOMC to NOT have a large drop happen.

Next week is OPEX, so if my thoughts are correct we'll get an early pullback Monday through Wednesday and then a rally back up int Friday. The week after is when we should see the bigger wave down, which should be a C wave, and I think we'll bottom around the end of this month, which is Friday the 28th. Whether or not we make a higher low then the 4963 low or a lower low I just don't know.

Have great weekend.

We got the short squeeze I was looking for, and we hit the rising white trendline spot on (pierced a little). Everything looks good to me for the top being in for this multi-week rally. I currently don't see anything big on the downside yet as we should still do a series of wave 1's down and 2's up... meaning the pullbacks should be bought during the first week as bulls buy the dips.

This is typical in the early stages after a top happens. Now while odds are good that we will have a pullback I still don't know how much? I did another chart with shallow pullback, which is below.

Now this would change the wave count of course, and it's certainly something I'll be open to happening. My focus will be to just watch the technicals closely and let them give me clues on how low we go and how long this last. But until we get started I can't predict any downside target. Let's just let the market tell us.

Have a blessed day.

Big day today the CPI and the FOMC will certainly cause some big moves in the market one way or the other. My lean is still that we have a squeeze higher first before we start a multi-week pullback, but I could be wrong of course.

We might see a drop after the CPI and then it get completely erased back up after the FOMC? Or we rally on the CPI and drop after the FOMC... really hard to know for sure. It's just a guessing game here and the only thing to do really is just to let it play out in one direction or the other and look to take a position short (or long) based on where it goes after each event.

To me, I can't take any longs here as upside looks limited to me... maybe a 100 points of risk there, but the downside has risk of 400+ points in my opinion. The pullback should take out the 5205 low and make a move toward the 4963 low in the coming weeks, and if my wave count is right it will stop somewhere in the middle of that zone and end Small Wave 2 down. Here's that wave count again from 6/6 ...

If I'm wrong on my wave count, meaning we take out the 4963 low (and likely go to the FP on the SPY), then I'd then think that whatever high we get this week ends Medium Wave 5 and that the pullback will then be Large Wave 4 down. It could reach the FP on the SPY for sure, which would be around 4850 or so. Then Medium Wave 5 up will take us into an August or September high of 6000+ to hit my FET hopefully. Here's that chart below...

Have a blessed day.

A whole lot of nothing yesterday as we drifted lower in the first half of the day and floated back up the second half. Still no clear direction but a move is coming tomorrow after the CPi and/or the FOMC. The market has been in a tight range the last several days and forming a bull flag, as well as a "cup and handle pattern", which both are bulls of course.

The typical trick is to rally higher first in a short squeeze to kill the bears and trap the bulls before a drop. Technicals are still short term bullish but medium term they are overbought so a pullback should still happen before this month ends, and usually in the second half of the month. But that pullback could start from a higher level, like the hitting of the rising white trendline up around 5450 on Wednesday.

As for today we'll probably chop around some more as everyone is waiting on the CPI and the FOMC. My lean is still that we'll hit the rising white trendline, but that doesn't mean we don't have a shakeout drop first, like after the CPI maybe? Then back up after the FOMC would be my best guess on how it plays out. Nothing but a waiting game now.

Have a blessed day.

Still missing one last wave up I think, which I thought we would see on Friday but it never happened... or did it? That new all time high midday could have been all there is for that final Tiny Wave 5 up to complete Small Wave 1 up. I have been thinking that last move up would hit the rising white trendline, but maybe it won't?

I'm still open to it hitting, which might hit on Wednesday after the CPI before the open, or after the FOMC at 2pm, but either way we are close to ending Small Wave 1 up and starting Small Wave 2 down.

I assume that it will unfold in an ABC pattern and could last until the end of the month, or sooner. I will add that many wave 2's retrace 61.8% to 78.6%, whereas wave 4's are usually 23.6% to 38.2%, so this pullback could be deeper then most expect, but I don't see it taking out the 4963.50 low where Small Wave 1 up starter. That's too far in advance to predict so let's get to the short term, which I think today and tomorrow we don't see much of nothing until Wednesday.

Then I'll just have to look at the charts on the short term to see if the RSI and MACD's get oversold or overbought into Wednesday as if they are oversold then odds will favor one more move up to "possibly" the rising white trendline for Tiny Wave 5, but if they are overbought then odds will favor the high being "in" for Tiny Wave 5 prior to the CPI and FOMC, so a move down should follow. That's what I see for this week.

Have a blessed day.

Not much to say today as yesterday did exactly what I thought... went sideways. It's forming a bull flag to breakout again and to run up to the white trendline of resistance. Fridays have been notorious for doing late day squeezes, so I wouldn't be shocked one bit if it happens again today. Whether it does it today or waits until Monday isn't really important as odds favor one more move up before we get a pullback. I covered pretty much everything yesterday so I'll just keep this post short and end it here.

Have a great weekend.

We've rallied into the green trendline now and made a new high. We will likely push through it by Friday and go for the rising white trendline. Again, I doubt if we get through it on the first attempt. The green trendline was hit in March, then May and this third time it should get through... so that's why I don't see it getting through the white line on the first time.

Now, will that be hit today? I don't know but if we go sideways today and/or tomorrow then I look for that push higher into Friday. Regardless of whether it's today, tomorrow or Friday it should end this rally and we should see a pullback start next week going into the FOMC meeting on Wednesday, which has the CPI out the same day.

I haven't looked at the wave count in quite awhile, so let's look at it now. Below is the big picture.

As you can see the Medium Wave 4 pullback was the one that I was looking to hit the FP on the SPY from the Yahoo site, but it stopped short at 4963.50 on the ES, so the Yahoo FP was a dud it seems. From there we started Medium Wave 5 up, adn that's what we are currently in right now. It should divide into 5 smaller waves and those waves can divide into tiny waves too.

Have a blessed day.

The market is getting ready to make a move higher it seems, which this time around I think it could get through the green trendline of resistance, but the white trendline should be a lot harder to get through. If we get a breakout soon then I think we'll reach that zone and stop there and go sideways more under it into this Friday to give the appearance of another breakout, but I think we will be overbought on the 6hr chart then and will pullback next week in front of the FOMC meeting.

After that I'm not sure but the second half of June is normally weak from the Seasonality Chart, so I don't think we'll go much higher but instead we will pullback. How much I just don't know, so we'll have to wait and see where we are at then and what the technicals look like. Right now they are looking bullish still, at least for the short term. I still don't think the market is ready to start the big leg up to 6000+, as I think we won't start that move until July.

Have a blessed day.

A decent pullback yesterday, but it got bought back up as expected. Technicals are still bullish on the 6hr chart and the daily chart is mixed... meaning it could go either way. And the weekly is the same as yesterday... tired basically, with a slight downward bias.

It is still choppy essentially with nothing aligned all up together in sync to support a big breakout higher or a selloff lower. If we go up today and into tomorrow then we could get overbought on the RSI and MACD of the 6hr chart by Thursday, possibly as late as Friday.

That doesn't mean we will just rollover and drop hard but if we are overbought when up into the green or white trendline of resistance I'd have to think it will hold and we'll pullback again... which should be to at least revisit yesterdays low, probably lower. This is again just "guessing" on where the RSI and MACD will top out at, and my best guess is Thursday. The pullback would be into the next FOMC on Wednesday the 12th, which we've seen many many times, so this is probably how the rest of the week will play out.

Have a blessed day.

Last Friday we did indeed see a late day rally as the RSI got oversold enough on the 6hr chart that squeeze happened. And it only reached the midpoint zone on the chart so it can go up again today if it wants too as it's not overbought yet. The daily is around the midpoint zone as well on its' RSI, so the bulls have the technicals on their side at least early this week.

If there is ever a time for the bulls to try and bust through the rising green trendline of resistance it would be now as the technicals favor them, and they have bears trapped, so there's no reason to give up now.

However, there's a rising white trendline of resistance above the green one, so I still don't think we are ready for another multi-hundred point non-stop rally to 6000+ yet. If we reach the 5400 zone I think that will be all there is for the bulls and that we'd drop back several hundred points in June to allow more time to pass so the weekly and daily charts can get setup better for a bigger and longer lasting rally.

The second half of June is still notoriously bearish, so that's where we should see another attempt to hit the FP on the SPY from the Yahoo site (if it is a real fake print, which is yet to be known).

Even if we don't hit it we should pullback to get close to the recent low on 4/19, and that could be a higher low which would be fine too. Then the summer rally can start and we'll see if the market can rally to 6000+ or not in the coming months. If they do that into September or so I'd be on high alert for a crash from some False Flag event the Biden gangster gang sets up to stop the election. Whether it's some attack from illegals coming into America or some made up virus I think we all know they have something planned. That's just speculation of course, and can't be foreseen in advance. But it's something to be aware of as possible, so keep your eye's open for clues they give us. That's all for now.

Have a blessed day.

President Trump Found Guilty For 34 Counts Of NOTHING

5

The verdict is in now as the Demomcrats convicted President Trump on all count, but ZERO charges. They did not put him in jail, so the stock market is holding now. I gave it low odds of a flash crash and that's seems to be correct as even though they convicted him they did not have the guts to put him in jail.

Wise move as it already bad enough for them. This is going to rally more and more Americans to support President Trump and vote for him this November. The stock market should be close to a bottom now for this multi-day pullback. It's around the end of the month now too, which is where "turn's" commonly happen at.

I do not know though if the coming rally will be on to another new all time high or just a lower one. The daily chart is still overbought so I doubt if we get past the rising green trendline of resistance yet. The weekly chart is still overbought but it is trying to turn back up on the MACD's now. Problem is... today is Friday and it ends the weekly candle. So there would need to be a strong move back up today to get a bullish cross on it. I don't think it will happen.

I think we will go up next week but only for a lower high, or possibly a slightly higher one to tag the rising green trendline again. But I just can't see it getting through it yet as more time is needed to get the MACD and the RSI lower on both the daily and weekly chart before any really strong rally is likely to start. It's still looking to me like we are going to be rangebound for quite awhile into mid-late June.

Whether or not we hit that FP or not is just something I don't know? It's from a charting program (Yahoo's website) that don't have any track record of FP's being accurate. I have years of data for FP's showing up on Think Or Swim, so I know they work and are hit at some point. I'm just going to keep an open mind into June to see if we get a pullback that looks like it might get close. For though I'm just going to stick with a wide range bound trading area for several more weeks to allow the necessary time to pass so that the charts can reset from being so overbought.

Have a great weekend and God Bless President Trump.

The bears continues to put downward pressure on the market, but nothing too big yet. I get the feeling the market is waiting on the trial of President Trump, as if the demoncrats convict him and put him in jail we could see a mini-crash happen. I give it low odds but anything is possible.

I say that because the rally this year has been reported many times as the "Trump Rally"... meaning investors are buying in advance of an expect Trump victory this November. But if he's put in jail for no crime investors will surely panic and that's why I say we could see a flash crash happen.

Again, it's low odds, but it would certainly get the bears super bearish... which would provide tons of fuel for short squeeze after short squeeze as the market rallies up to 6000+ in this fall. Now I'm NOT expecting this to happen, and of course no one would see it or be short, but it's possible for sure. If it does then we know the target for the low will be the FP on the SPY. Now from a technical point of view we are getting close to oversold on the RSI of the 6hr chart, so a bounce back up should happen today or tomorrow.

The daily is just now rolling over and only about half way down now on its' RSI, and the MACD is still overbought. So a lot of room is still left on the them into the coming weeks if the bears want to push it down into mid-late June.

So, assuming there's no surprise mini-crash, we should bounce today or tomorrow and then rollover again next week. It should continue to have some bounces and lower lows until the end where I'd look for the flush out drop to last a few days, which ideally reaches the FP on the SPY. Again, I think this will be mid-late June, but that's just a best guess. Don't forget the common pattern of "turns" happening around the end of each month.

With today being the 30th and tomorrow the 31st, a "turn" back up for the bounce (which could last several days?) is near. This is what I see in the technicals and what should happen... as long as we don't get any surprise from some news event.

Have a blessed day.

Pretty much as expected yesterday... choppy. We went up, then down and by the end of the day it's a nothing day. I really don't have anything to add that wasn't said yesterday. We could swing up and down like this all week, and would could still be in a range from say 5200 to 5400, hard too predict the levels.

But I still don't see any big breakout that starts the next leg up to 6000+ as we need to pullback one more time before that happens. Now we could go sideways for another month I guess and that would reset the weekly enough to support a breakout that holds, and that's certainly possibly.

If that happens then the FP on the SPY is worthless I guess, or it's going to be hit later on many months from now. Could it be a low target for a fast flash crash like drop after we top above 6000? I guess anything is possible, so I can't rule that out. Maybe it's the low after a fast mini-crash into the November election? Could there be another false flag planned to keep Trump from winning?

The Demoncrats are very desperate right now so I would not put anything past them. I'm sure they are holding the market up too, and plan on topping it right before the election to keep Pedo Joe looking like it's doing it. Most Americans know better, at least I hope they do. Anyway, that's all I have. My lean is still toward the downside but every drop will likely be bought back up until the end.

Have a blessed day.
