Yearly $SPX chart shows 2024 breakout of the prior 3 years( 2021/2022/2023) of consolidation w/ 100% range expansion. So far in 2025 we have what looks like a look above 2024 and possible fail back into 2024 Midpoint( -12% pullback from current year highs)
#ES $SPY $SPX Prior day(Wed) inside day within Tue's P-shape profile. Creating 2 day profile shows clear ValueAreaHigh & ValueAreaLow zones. Today's open & downside b/o attempt of inside day but no follow through led to breakout upside, backtest of 2dayVA-high held
$ES GAP ISLAND = BEARISH if the gap holds $SPY $SPX We have what looks like compression in range since Sunday Open and range expansion taking place ...
Today $ES had a look above Y-high & fail. It also rejected Friday's single prints. Retraced 78% of current week's range. Price seeking behavior. Expect more of this deep back and forth probing to continue.
4pm EST 4/2/2025 , "Liberation Day" announcement: 10% universal tariff all imports to the US &higher rates of 11%-50% on goods from 57 trading partners. $SPY $SPX $QQQ $NDX As of 8pm EST 4/6/2025 $ES futures high to low % change -16.27%
โKraken is acquiring retail futures trading platform NinjaTrader for US$1.5 billion. โ to me that figure seems ridiculous, who did the valuation? @Mayhem4Markets
Wow... somehow I missed that Kraken bought NinjaTrader. Be careful folks. The acquirer has ... quite the track record with regulators and a pretty crazy history of management lashing out at employees. They also have a 1.4 star rating on TrustPilot from irate customers. ๐ฌ

$SPY $SPX $ES Monday's DoubleDistribution Trend Up day respected once again w/today's OPEN gap down(-61.75pts) at Monday's lower distribution high. OpenType: OPEN DRIVE w/ delta confirming. I'm expecting a higher high &higher low trend up to continue this week.If broken=balance
@leothetiger Great show, you guys are natural at trading in front of a live audience. I noticed Ninjatrader 8, what is a all around market profile indicator you recommend?
$ES Recap: Prior day large gap down Open & saw responsive buying that ended in a clean double distribution trend up day. Today opened within prior day's range, tested PrevDayMid and saw impulsive rotation up. Pullback was deep to test prior dayโs upper distribution low. $SPY $SPX
@pdx999 25k+ contracts were aggressively bought on the offer yet price couldnโt go up= passive sellers absorbed all the buying. Also price closed at absolute lows and we ran out time which is why I think there is more selling to come
$ES 3/28/2025 passive sellers absorbing >25k contracts in a span of 2.5hrs is massive! It has to be a record. I believe they are not done, we will see more passive selling in the next few days to possibly exit out of position/hedge $SPY $SPX
Sunday Globex Gap&Go OPEN 5740 key lvl. Overnight poke below 5740 but held above. RTH Pit Open under Y-low, rejected Y-low to close the gap from 3/21 where buyers showed up. Ran upto Mon's Low=failure. Balanced overlapping profile from prior day trend day lower balance. $ES $SPY
$ES Great insight. 0DTE driving activity = short term players. Either markets gets too long or too short and see inventory correction. This is also evident by seeing more P-shape/b-shape profiles, liquidation days etc. $SPY $SPX
Options activity can help you discern what investors really think about where political leaders are taking us. i.e., 0DTE calls driving activity today (orange, green). Translation? No one is willing to buy anything to hold. Just opportunistic short term buyers.
