Tuesday January 7 2025 SPY SPX ES Actionable Levels

$SPX continues running all the way to final upside target from Friday. Is $SPY set for new all time highs?

In partnership with

In Friday’s letter, we wrote:

For Monday, we’re closely watching the key SPX levels of 5924, 5910, and 5943.

If we can build on Friday's impressive rally, it would look like holding 5924 or not even retesting. A dip and defense there or at 5910 are options to get long for a push through 5943. Then, 5965 is on deck, followed by 5976 and 5987, with 6001 and 6019 as final upside targets.

This is what happened. The levels played out exceptionally well, and we rallied past the final upside target of 6019, reaching a high of 6021.04 during the session. After hitting this high, we experienced a trickle down throughout the remainder of the day, failing to hold supports except for the key dip and defense at 5965. We closed right at the 5976 level, which highlighted the importance of this key level.

See how well the levels work?

Trading Plan

The market had an impressive blast through the mid-range, achieving over a 1% gain at one point, only to sell off slightly, closing with a half percent gain on decent volume.

For tomorrow, we have FOMC member Barkin speaking prior to the open, followed by services PMI and JOLTS data released post-open. These events could bring volatility and should be watched closely as they may influence market direction.

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

In fact, I’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…
