$SPX defends key support and runs higher overnight to consolidate during the day. Where is $SPY's next target?

In yesterday’s letter, we wrote:

For tomorrow, we’re closely watching the key SPX levels of 7431, 7462, 7506 and 7539, and as long as lower supports hold we remain biased to the upside with an eye on long entries. Ideal setups include a dip & defense at 7506…and holding above 7519 overnight into the open would add conviction for a push to 7539 and a breakout attempt where we stalled today, targeting 7558.

This is what happened. The market showed solid execution today as we observed a dip and defense of the critical 7519SPX level overnight, which laid the groundwork for an upward move towards the 7558 target. Then we had a dip into the regular session, with another bounce reaching a high of 7530.72 before settling into a period of sideways chop. A key moment was the defense of the 7506 level, which allowed us to rally back to flat at 7519 into the close. $SPY ( ▼ 0.02% )  $SPX ( ▲ 0.02% )  $ES_F ( 0.0% )

Trading Plan

Overall, today was a constructive consolidation day, testing higher levels while defending key supports. The fact that this occurred on lower volume indicates that while the market is holding up, we should be cautious of a potential pullback.

Looking ahead, tomorrow brings key PCE and GDP data, along with unemployment reports in the morning. We’ll also see new home sales numbers released post-open, paired with speeches from at least three FOMC members throughout the day. These events will be crucial as they could significantly influence market sentiment and volatility.

We are receiving some great questions from beginners. This is helping us develop guides for this group as well as the course. More to come but we’ve created a separate channel in the discord just so you don’t have to be shy about bringing those questions to the group. No question is dumb, we grow stronger together!

In fact, we’ve created this single resource as a guide. It is a living document and we will continue updating it. You must be logged into the site to read it:

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