What I am looking for this week is market selling into indices strength. There are a number of silent signals going on. Some of the Mag 7 boys been offloading their personal holdings and going into cash. The shift in the bond market to very short term holds. The increase in put options. Gold and crypto also going into cash. Just things to watch.

Watch for an inside candle tomorrow .

Lower support has to hold from last week , there’s going to be a lot of volatility into Nvidia . However the insiders already know the results .

'I AM CONFIDENT' CHINA WILL HONOR AGREEMENTS ON RARE EARTHS

As confident as China is that Trump won't bump his toe or have a squabble with Melania and being all flustered and upset he decides to nuke Venezuela?

You go set up the dashboard of your demands that China meet. I'm sure they will mighty appreciate that sir.

IG suddenly showing weekend trading as a gap down open Sunday evening . Haven’t had a gap down Sunday opening for a while . Interesting to see if the retail BTD brigade buy the fill or we get a gap and go . Interesting times .
It's only a little gap, more a weekend liquidity issue methinks. NVDA earnings Wednesday. FOMC Wednesday too, then NFP data on Thursday. Going to be a rather roller-coaster week imo. Sometimes the side game is more profitable and safer than the indices. Not to mention spreads are likely to spike considerably, especially during NFP data release.

The 3 session provides a great framework for understanding the logistics at play in this dynamic volatile market.

Whipsaw action between certain levels , whilst the fast money exits. It’ll be interesting to see how Nvidia plays out on Wednesday .

The move from overnight to right now is just as bearish as bearish can be. If there is no major rally into the close (and why would there be with vol expanding so much?) it opens up the possibility for a horrific week....
It is ghost . However, this could be the flush out before the potential rise into the latter two weeks of November. I won’t explain my rationale behind that statement on here I’ll send you a pm .

It’s not over yet , it’s still early days into the week and Nvidia will likely cause a short squeeze into results . I’m not as bearish as yourself , however I concede the charts have shown a cross on certain timeframes which aren’t bullish at all.

While I think we all agree on the value of IG weekend figures being mixed at best, it is interesting (and disheartening) to see what was a +0.3% and 71% of clients long the market (last night) shift to a -0.22% and 54% of clients short.

Of course, the total number of "clients" could simply be 5 guys in a dinghy frustrated that they haven't been getting any bites for the past 3 hours and the beer is now gone so they decide to take their anger out on the market, but I digress...

I don't think we were ever going to see a big gap up THIS weekend (unlike last weekend) despite the similarity in the Friday market action. Reason being, there is no big news on the horizon akin to the government reopening. Personally, I would prefer a flat(ish) open that then rises vs. a big gap that begs to get filled. What I REALLY don't want to see is overnight uncertainty surrounding the data that is projected to be released this week + NVDA earnings turbulence.

FWIW: the change in sentiment basically happened when these Bessent comments surfaced. Go figure.

Good luck this week everyone!

The IG weekend spreads always make me wonder as well. If the instrument is -50 pts, but the spread is 30 pts, someone coming in on the "buy" side knocks off 15 pts of the negative sentiment. Pretty darn significant for one contract :-P

Gold looks flat, but crypto continues to take it on the chin. BTC (down 1.65% presently). ETH (down 3.5%). Both are off lows from about an hour ago but ETH, as an example had a 6% drawdown from early morning highs to recent lows. That is not an insignificant move....so there's certainly weakness out there for "risk" assets.

Nothing like a 1% gap higher or anything :-P

....that said, I would VERY MUCH like to see a 1-2% move up into the US cash open. I have been clear on that. I need to lighten up long exposure into NVDA and would really prefer to do it at higher levels than lower, so I'm on board with the "move up is unstoppable" narrative (so long as enough people are convinced to buy presently)!!

{quote} 1 to 2% gap up? That only happens on very significant news. We have literally no news, and we are slated to gap up over 22 SPX points, I’d say that is very significant considering posters here claiming we were going to gap down. We are over 100 SPX points higher than Friday with the mythical bubble popping, tonight’s move shows incredible resilience.
For what it's worth, nearly everyone on here references a "gap" as the move from Friday's futures close to Sundays's futures open (US time).

There have been MANY 1% gaps between SPX cash market close>open on "no news". It's the futures that are meaningful (in most cases).

Either way, I didn't expect the futures move to be as much as it is currently...and I suspect many others didn't either.

We may have gone to different "chart reading schools". I don't see it as "clearly" being anything. It broke support TLs in the past after bounces like we just saw. That said, the price did seem to respect the latest touch of April>11/7 TL and diyn quite get down to the hot support. But, you won't know if it bottomed until it starts to break through some resistance (still under the down TL from highs) and below the hor res from 11/12. Presently (after hours) it is bumping into the underside of the 20day MA.

As a holder of quite a sizable NVDA position (along with significant exposure via /nq contracts), I do hope it has indeed bottomed and gathers some support into (and after) earnings!

Interesting and important facts if anyone cares. The SPX has gone from 4800 to 6900, a huge move by any standard. The absolute biggest most destructive crash correction since 4800? It’s when we went from, closings, 6753 to 6552 or 201 points which is 2.98%. If you told me the SPX could go up 44% since April and do it without ever once having a 3% or more pullback? I wouldn’t have believed it. But here we are. Markets need healthy corrections or pullbacks, normally most would say at least 5%, and considering the 44% move one would think more like...
SPX doesn't tell the whole story as the futures have done some wild things after hours. The ranges (high>low) have likely supported more than that 3% you mentioned. Just looking at the /es chart, 5500>5130 (6.7%). 6812>6540 (4%). 6953>6655 (4.3%). 6900>6670 (3.3%....off lows from Friday).

I am not saying that we have seen a significant pullback, but there have absolutely been > 3% on multiple occasions.
If you look to the /nq or /rty, you see it even more significantly.



......in other news, what is driving GOOG to near ATHs in the post market here? It just bounced off 296 (a 7.5% up move)...Waymo expansion? Should pump TSLA as well in the coming months thing if robots is can make some headway

{quote} I don’t trade nq anymore, it’s too few stocks controlling it and billion dollar funds don’t use it for technical analysis. What they use is the SPX specifically, they don’t use es charts. My contention is, in our current market the after hour futures are clearly being run by big bots. They can do it because of the very low volume compared to cash opening. We saw it clearly two Fridays in a row. Overnight trading was the east opposite of cash trading. The overnight es moves are designed to confuse, they do not represent the real money when...
You are right regarding the /nq being a small subset of companies comprising the lion's share. I guess, however, if you look at it on a percentage basis, the SPX is actually controlled by an similar subset. 10% of the NDX equals 70% of the market cap. 10% of the SPX equals 60% of the market cap. I guess the difference is in the total number that comprise that percentage, of course.

As for it being the opposite, I am not entirely sure that your logic is sound there, though. The overnight session, in each case, drove the /nq to the 50ray MA (and the cash market drove it even lower, then rebounded off support). The overnight trading may be lower liquidity, BUT, it can either be in lock step with, or opposing the cash market, that is unknown (and usually data/event driven).

I'd wager the majority of the market gains for any given year (if you want to think of the markets as always going up) take place in the overnight sessions.

Bernard Baruch's immortal wisdom comes to mind, as Berkshire's investment is announced after market close, once again proving that the chart precedes the news.
I may be missing something, but I don't see any reason the level you mention was a key technical level for GOOG. I see no TL support, nor horizontal (price) support. MAYBE a prior resistance turned support range, but those are hardly ever "fixed" numbers

If you saw the film The Big Short, Burry does his due diligence to an exacting standard. He'd read a phone book if he had to.

The es closed a full 10 points higher after cash close, so a gap down of 10 SPX is actually flat. Bitcoin seems to be the catalyst for the slight down tick on IG. But it has stabilized at 94, have to wait and see if it bounces or breaks to new lows.

Exactly. As the smartest, best looking, strongest, fastest, and coolest person here, I approve your message.

The IG spreads are very wide and the volume incredibly low. It’s nice to check for direction but they rarely get magnitude correct. Bitcoin is what to watch and 94 is the level to focus on, bounce probably coming, but if we get a confirmed break lower it’s not great. Might have to wait all the way until Nvidia earnings are Flash Gordon. (savior of the universe)

A bull market is a bull market until it isn’t, we all see obvious support levels under 6700, and if we can’t breach those the market has no choice but to go higher.

Bitcoin 94 broke but not much follow through, IG showing a little more down in response. Could just be more of the same, let it fall into the SPX 6600s so they can buy Nvidia on the cheap. But this is a strange market, feels like it is confused and waiting for confirmation before breaking out of this narrow range, we’ve spent two months bouncing back and forth around this same level. I’m not going to bet on it, but if I did I’d bet the next breakout will be signaled on Wednesday evening.

Markets need healthy corrections or pullbacks, normally most would say at least 5%, and considering the 44% move one would think more like 10%. But the market has never once tried to follows through on any down moves, just vertical buying. So if we follow the obvious trend, we will go significantly higher without ever having a real pullback, until of course it crashes.

{quote} SPX doesn't tell the whole story as the futures have done some wild things after hours. The ranges (high>low) have likely supported more than that 3% you mentioned. Just looking at the /es chart, 5500>5130 (6.7%). 6812>6540 (4%). 6953>6655 (4.3%). 6900>6670 (3.3%....off lows from Friday). I am not saying that we have seen a significant pullback, but there have absolutely been > 3% on multiple occasions. If you look to the /nq or /rty, you see it even more significantly.
I don’t trade nq anymore, it’s too few stocks controlling it and billion dollar funds don’t use it for technical analysis. What they use is the SPX specifically, they don’t use es charts. My contention is, in our current market the after hour futures are clearly being run by big bots. They can do it because of the very low volume compared to cash opening. We saw it clearly two Fridays in a row. Overnight trading was the east opposite of cash trading. The overnight es moves are designed to confuse, they do not represent the real money when cash trades.

271.93 was a key technical level for GOOG to hold. The way it bounced right off that level on Friday was highly indicative of something big brewing. Bernard Baruch's immortal wisdom comes to mind, as Berkshire's investment is announced after market close, once again proving that the chart precedes the news.
