Thursday Oct 8 2026 SPY SPX ES Actionable Levels
$SPX gives up key support in the morning and recovers afternoon. Where must $SPY hold tomorrow?
In yesterday’s letter, we wrote:
For tomorrow, we’re closely watching the key SPX levels of 7780, 7808, 7847, and 7863. If we lose 7780 and are unable to bounce back above it, we’ll flip short for the move to 7762.
We’ll look for long entries on a dip & defense of 7808 or on a direct defense at 7780.”
This is what happened. Today’s trading session was remarkable, as we effectively called both the high and low of the day. Initially, we observed a loss of the critical 7780 level, which triggered a swift drop to the low of the day at 7763.34, landing RIGHT at our identified support of 7762. This provided a perfect opportunity to defend and rally back through 7780, ultimately reaching a high of day at 7807.02, just shy of our key level of 7808. This 44-point range perfectly illustrated the respect of the levels. $SPY ( ▼ 0.24% ) $SPX ( ▼ 7.93% ) $ES_F ( 0.0% )
See how well the levels work?

Trading Plan
Today’s session saw only a .22% move lower, despite more significant declines earlier in the trading day, indicating strong buying interest at lower levels.
Looking ahead to tomorrow, we have a key FOMC Waller speech scheduled before the open, along with unemployment claims and a 30-year auction later in the day. These events could introduce volatility, so it’s crucial to stay alert and ready to adjust our strategies based on the market’s response.
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!

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…
