Tuesday Sept 8 2026 SPY SPX ES Actionable Levels

$SPX dips, defends and consolidates above key support. Where does $SPY defend after holiday?

In partnership with

In yesterday’s letter, we wrote:

For tomorrow, we’re closely watching the key SPX levels of 7692, 7723, 7740, and 7754. As long as we hold key supports below us, the bias remains to the upside and we want to keep finding long entries. These could come on a dip & defense at 7723 or 7705, or a direct defense of 7692.

This is what happened. The market faced some resistance today, unable to maintain the upward momentum as we opened below the key 7754 level and hit a high of 7750.19 before succumbing to selling pressure. We gave up significant levels, including 7740 and 7723, dropping down to the critical support at 7705, where we hit a low of 7706.12. However, the market managed to bounce back, reaching near 7730 before consolidating sideways, ultimately closing just below the 7723 level. $SPY ( ▼ 0.39% )  $SPX ( ▲ 1.86% )  $ES_F ( 0.0% )

See how well the levels work?

Trading Plan

Today presented a good test of supports, resulting in a modest decline of .38% amid the consolidation.

Looking ahead to Tuesday, we will be monitoring any news that may arise from the long weekend regarding the Middle East or trade developments. Additionally, on Wednesday, we have a 10-year bond auction, followed by PPI and CPI reports later in the week, which could influence market dynamics significantly.

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…
