Dear all, as you can see from the yellow lines SPY is in an ascending wedge (I cut through some candlesticks b/c RSI was extremely high on those days) that is part of an upward channel the index has been in since the low in early May. Since that low we've made 3 higher highs and 3 higher lows, bullish right? Maybe not. You see on Mar. 13 we made a higher high than the one struck on Feb. 27 only to fall hard over the next couple weeks. For all we know this ascending channel is just a bear flag. Also note that we recently broke RSI support (denoted with a green arrow) that had held since April trend wise.
The most important takeaway from the past few weeks; from Jun. 11 specifically, is that the .786 (279.55) Fibonacci level has served like a glass ceiling, and the 0.618 (273.82) has currently served as strong support, cumulatively this has happened about 6 times in less than 2 weeks. Even if we do break past the .786- 282, where multiple bearish factors of confluence come into play, will probably be the limit of any upside (based on analysis not present here) before a retracement.
We've made 3 higher lows in the ascending channel we've been in since the beginning of April and on every higher low volume relative to the last one has been lower- denoted by four opaque oval ellipticals at the bottom of the chart connected by downward sloping magenta trend lines. This is potentially bullish. Thus at the moment patience is required, I am currently neutral and will see how the market behaves over the coming weeks before moving into the bullish or bearish camp.
