Friday December 26 2025 SPY SPX ES Actionable Levels

$SPX defends critical supports and grinds to fresh all time highs. How does $SPY react post-holiday?

In partnership with

In yesterday's letter, we wrote:

For tomorrow, we’re closely watching the key SPX levels of 6877, 6891, 6905, and 6917. As long as we hold critical support at 6891 and 6877, we remain committed to trading the upside, targeting long entries on a dip & defense above 6905 or 6891 or on a direct defense of 6877, which can then fuel a push through 6917, 6930, 6943

This is what happened. The levels we identified played out perfectly today, as we successfully held critical supports. This allowed us to maintain our bullish stance and push higher through the targets of 6917 and 6930, ultimately reaching a high of 6937—just shy of our 6943 resistance target. $SPY ( ▲ 0.35% )  $SPX ( ▲ 0.32% )  $ES_F ( 0.0% )  

See how well the levels work?

Wall Street Isn’t Warning You, But This Chart Might

Vanguard just projected public markets may return only 5% annually over the next decade. In a 2024 report, Goldman Sachs forecasted the S&P 500 may return just 3% annually for the same time frame—stats that put current valuations in the 7th percentile of history.

Translation? The gains we’ve seen over the past few years might not continue for quite a while.

Meanwhile, another asset class—almost entirely uncorrelated to the S&P 500 historically—has overall outpaced it for decades (1995-2024), according to Masterworks data.

Masterworks lets everyday investors invest in shares of multimillion-dollar artworks by legends like Banksy, Basquiat, and Picasso.

And they’re not just buying. They’re exiting—with net annualized returns like 17.6%, 17.8%, and 21.5% among their 23 sales.*

Wall Street won’t talk about this. But the wealthy already are. Shares in new offerings can sell quickly but…

Now, as we soar to fresh all-time highs, the question becomes: how much further can this momentum carry us? What key levels should we monitor for potential pullbacks, and where might we find support if the market decides to test lower boundaries?

Below, we’ll cover the actionable levels, how we played them today and what they mean for the next session.

The push through 6917 and 6930 were clear bullish signals that we were heading higher. Always trust the levels.

Trading Plan

Today’s performance, a solid .3% gain on lighter holiday volume, indicates that there is still buying interest in this market, despite the seasonal slowdown.

Looking ahead to Friday, we have a light day in terms of scheduled reports and news, but it’s essential to remain alert as any geopolitical news over the holiday could disrupt this upward trend.

As readers know trading after a massive move in either direction is risky.

Trying to predict when trend will break is a fool’s game because the trend can be stronger than you ever realize.

Going with the trend is hard because it has already run so far (or dropped) and move may be close to over.

All you can do is pick your entries carefully and with proper position sizing. Trading out 1-3 DTE or further also helps soften the blow.

Yes it will decrease the amount of profit but will greatly help keep you in a trade long enough to see return.

For Friday, we’re closely watching the key SPX levels of…
