Wednesday January 7 2026 SPY SPX ES Actionable Levels
$SPX dips overnight to EXACTLY our dip & defense level to get long and run to fresh ATHs. Where must $SPY hold on the retest?
In yesterday's letter, we wrote:
For tomorrow, we’re closely watching the key SPX levels of 6871, 6890, 6911, and 6953. Having barely lost a critical support into the close after reclaiming it earlier, we need a clean punch through 6911 and hold to restore bullish conviction. In the interim, we’ll look to buy any dip and defense of 6890 or, even better, a firm hold of 6898 overnight, using a break above 6911 as our long trigger. That should clear the way to 6925 and 6940, with a breach of 6940 opening fresh all-time highs at 6953”
This is what happened. Today’s trading session unfolded beautifully according to our plan. We not only defended the crucial 6890 support level overnight (EXACTLY) but also saw a significant dip and defense of the 6911 level during the regular session. This setup provided traders with a perfect opportunity to capitalize on the bullish momentum, leading to a strong rally all the way to the high of day at 6948.69—just shy of our target at 6953 and a remarkable 58 points above our key long dip and defense level. $SPY ( ▼ 0.01% ) $SPX ( ▲ 0.01% ) $ES_F ( 0.0% )
See how well the levels work?
Last Time the Market Was This Expensive, Investors Waited 14 Years to Break Even
In 1999, the S&P 500 peaked. Then it took 14 years to gradually recover by 2013.
Today? Goldman Sachs sounds crazy forecasting 3% returns for 2024 to 2034.
But we’re currently seeing the highest price for the S&P 500 compared to earnings since the dot-com boom.
So, maybe that’s why they’re not alone; Vanguard projects about 5%.
In fact, now just about everything seems priced near all time highs. Equities, gold, crypto, etc.
But billionaires have long diversified a slice of their portfolios with one asset class that is poised to rebound.
It’s post war and contemporary art.
Sounds crazy, but over 70,000 investors have followed suit since 2019—with Masterworks.
You can invest in shares of artworks featuring Banksy, Basquiat, Picasso, and more.
24 exits later, results speak for themselves: net annualized returns like 14.6%, 17.6%, and 17.8%.*

Now, as we celebrate this impressive gain, we must consider our next steps. How will we maintain this momentum? What levels should we watch to ensure we stay on track for sustained push higher?

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








Both the defense of 6890 overnight AND the 6911 dip & defense during the regular session were key indicators we were going higher. Always trust the levels.
Now we are sitting in AH right on the key 6942 support level. What does this mean and where do we go from here? Read below for our trade plan which includes actionable support & resistance levels, outlook for the next session and today’s trade recap.

Trading Plan
Today’s .6% move higher was supported by decent volume, indicating strong buying interest.
As we look ahead to tomorrow, we have crucial employment data set to be released before the market opens, followed by additional jobs data (JOLTS) later in the day.

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…
