SPY / QQQ / Vix
SPY 5 days, hourly candles S&P futures had been trading weak all night and were on their way to a gap down open, but this big bounce over the the last hour is changing that 423.51 the corresponding futures low

SPY 3 months, daily candles Back under the daily 12ema (white line) but held above the previous daily "higher low" from 3/1 on Friday; Technically bulls still have the daily uptrend, but losing that 427.11 would lose it. 427.88 the low from Friday and first support
427.11 that previous daily "higher low" and most important spot for bulls to stay above
410.64 the Ukraine invasion fear low 433.37 the high from Friday and first resistance

QQQ 3 months, daily candles Thursday's confirmed daily uptrend saw no follow thru straight into a pullback, followed by a loss of the previous "higher low" spot of 338.90 from 3/1, on Friday. The hourly and 4hr RSI's were pretty beaten up after last night's futures weakness, and that oversold bounce is currently underway. 334.92 the low from Friday, trading just under there currently for a small gap down potential

350.04 after that
March Vix futures 3 months, daily candles A push over the 2/24 Ukraine invasion highs here last night which is note-able; Currently seeing a reversal and upper wick of selling off this broad market bounce attempt.

Spot Vix 3 months, daily candles Testing up to the Ukraine invasion 2/24 high of 37.79 early this AM; Todays high falling short so far at 36.52.
See if this area provides some "resistance" and we see a back off against those recent highs.
