SPY / QQQ / Vix
SPY 5 days, hourly candles S&P futures consolidating early this AM, and cooling off hourly/4hr overbought conditions that had gotten overbought again yesterday 447.25 the corresponding futures/pre mkt low so far
450.50 the corresponding futures high
SPY 3 months, daily candles The strong bounce off recent lows continued with a push/close over the 200 day MA and a test of the 150 day MA. Higher low everyday for the last 6 days in a row, once that pattern breaks daily consolidation will be underway (resistance)
450.58 the high from yesterday and first resistance
450.60 the 150 day MA
457.71-458.12 next area (support)
446.21 the 200 day MA
445.86 the low from yesterday
441.41 the 50 day MA
440.68 next
436.31 the daily 12ema
QQQ 5 days, hourly candles Similar look here on the Nasdaq, consolidation started early this AM and we've pulled back to about the middle of yesterdays range 354.06 the corresponding futures low
357.39 the corresponding futures high
QQQ 3 months, daily candles Pushed thru and closed back above the 50 day MA for the first time since the one day in early February; Higher low everyday for 6 days in a row here as well, once that pattern breaks daily consolidation gets underway. Bulls will then look for a higher low anywhere above recent lows, with shallow consolidation that stays above the daily 12ema being their best case scenario. Then a pivot to higher highs will still be needed - the daily downtrend broke but bulls will want to see the "higher low then higher high" for uptrend confirmation (resistance)
357.85 the high from yesterday and first resistance
366.49-366.81 next
369.17 the 200 day MA (support)
350.73 the 50 day MA
350.20 the low from yesterday
345.58 next
342.02 the daily 12ema
April Vix 3 months, daily candles Trying to hold up at yesterdays/Mondays lows with a daily inside bar so far today. Watching for which way this breaks. 25.95 needed for the bull break
24.70 needed for the bear break and bear flag confirmation
Spot Vix 3 months, daily candles Going on 6 days of vol crush here. Daily inside bar so far today, testing yesterdays upper end currently. Inside bar so far with a 24.02 upside break needed for the vol bulls and the daily bounce to get underway.
22.70 the low from yesterday, a bear break under will also confirm a bear flag, then have us looking to the 20 area psychological test
