SPY / QQQ / Vix
SPY 5 days, hourly candles S&P futures seeing some lift off yesterdays lows, bouncing into the middle of yesterdays range 407.68 the after hours from yesterday before futures opened
410.27 the corresponding futures/pre mkt high so far
SPY 3 months, daily candles Seeing some mild daily consolidation and still above Fridays lows, potential daily bull flag if yesterday/Friday lows hold up. Watching the 12ema (white line) after that if they break. Daily uptrend/Weekly downtrend in play here. (support)
406.77-406.82 the lows from the past few days
400.28 that daily 12ema
398.15 next
394.05
392.04 the 50 day MA
389.95 - anything above there on this consolidation keeps the daily uptrend intact (resistance)

415.82-417.44 after that
425
429.66
QQQ 5 days, hourly candles Nasdaq futures also bouncing back into the middle of yesterdays range 313.46 the after hours high from yesterday, before futures opened
316.12 the corresponding futures/pre mkt high so far
QQQ 3 months, daily candles Still mostly resisting daily consolidation after a slight break of the previous days low yesterday saw no follow thru. A clear break of those levels and the daily 12ema (white line) is the support I'd look to next. Daily uptrend/weekly downtrend broken. (support)
311.84 the low from yesterday
309.93
305.60 the daily 12ema
302.75
298.46
294.45 the 50 day MA

318.55-318.81 the recent highs
321.17
325.25
330.29
August Vix futures 3 months, daily candles Daily bounce underway here, inside bar so far today. If it breaks bull above 25.25, this daily bear flag look would get negated.
23.65 the area needed for the bear break lower.
Spot Vix 3 months, daily candles Debating on setting the next daily "lower high" in this downtrend it's been in the past month and a half.
Inside bar day here also -
24.68 needed for the bull break
22.67 needed for the bear break and confirmation the next daily "lower high" has been set.
TLT 3months, daily candles and 3yr weekly candles Daily bearish engulfing candle yesterday after refusing follow thru on the break of the weekly downtrend. Testing the 12ema (white line) currently.
116.47-116.71 the last daily "higher low" area, and spot the bears would need to break for the bulls to lose this daily uptrend.
115.17 the 50 day MA as next major support after that if they were to do so.
