SPY / QQQ / Vix SPY 5 days, hourly candles S&P futures bouncing to test the upper end of Fridays range 413.50 the pre mkt high

410.62 the corresponding futures low

SPY 3 months, daily candles Choppy action in the middle of this recent relatively tight daily range continued Friday, after the bears came out swinging early. Recovered half the drop late Friday afternoon, and now is set to test Fridays high; after seeing a further bounce in futures action overnight. (support)

409.07 the low from Friday

408.64-408.87

407.27 open gap

404.72 the 50 day MA(blue)

403.74 (resistance)

413.64 the high from Friday

414.54-414.82

415.27 small open gap

417.62

QQQ 5 days, hourly candles Nasdaq futures also saw an extension of Fridays late recovery bounce 326.25 the pre mkt high

323.97 the corresponding futures low

QQQ 3 months and 1yr daily candles Pushed new recent highs/almost 1year highs again on Friday, before reversing quickly after the open and then breaking Thursdays lows. Watching to see if bears see any follow thru on daily consolidation to start the week, or if they quickly lose the flash of momentum once again. (support)

322.94 the low from Friday

321.90 the daily 12ema(white)

321.32

316.21

315.05-315.12

314.94 small open gap (resistance)

327.17 the high from Friday

330.49-331.43

334.42 (8/16/22 high)



(moving onto June Vix contract, May expires tomorrow) June Vix futures 3months, daily candles Potential doji reversal candle on Friday, but so far starting the week of testing Fridays lows; Would need to at least push back over/close back over 20.60ish to get anyone's attention for a reversal.

Spot Vix 3 months, daily candles Opening the week trading in the upper half of Fridays range, but still pretty muted action so far; Would need to see follow thru over that 17.92 Friday high, and the 18.19-18.30 highs from last week, to give bears any hope for deeper broad market consolidation.

$DXY 3months, daily candles Pushed over all recent highs on Friday, trading in the upper third of Fridays range currently
