Market Breadth Analysis
SPY
Lets look at the SPY daily chart. This chart indicates strong bullish momentum, with prices consistently above key moving averages (50-day and 200-day). However, the MACD histogram shows signs of diminishing momentum, suggesting potential consolidation or a minor pullback. As well, the Money Flow Index (MFI) is approaching overbought territory, signaling caution for potential short-term traders.
The SPY is due for a pullback to at least $530 in my opinion.
QQQ
The QQQ chart demonstrates strong bullish activity with prices well above the 50-day and 200-day moving averages, indicating sustained upward momentum.
The MACD histogram is positive but shows a slight divergence, hinting at possible consolidation. Last, the Money Flow Index (MFI) is in overbought territory, which could signal a potential near-term pullback or correction.
Once again, I think the QQQ can see a pullback here. We seen meme stocks crash, Gold and Silver crash and with the Nvidia split it could cause a correction period for the QQQ and SPY.
DXY, US Dollar
The weekly USD chart indicates a potential bullish trend as it attempts to break above the $105 resistance level, which could increase bearish probabilities for QQQ. The RSI remains neutral, suggesting that there is room for further upside movement. The MACD shows a slight bullish crossover, supporting the case for a potential rally in USD, which could put downward pressure on QQQ due to the inverse correlation often seen between the USD and tech-heavy indices.
BITCOIN
MY FAVORITE SET UP!
The BTC/USD chart shows a bullish breakout from a descending triangle pattern, suggesting potential for further upward movement.
The RSI is in a neutral position, indicating there is room for the rally to continue without immediate overbought concerns. The MACD histogram has turned positive, confirming bullish momentum, while the MFI remains balanced, suggesting steady buying pressure without significant risk of a reversal at this point.
I think all bitcoin stocks should be on the watchlist this week.
10 year treasury
The 10-Year US Treasury Yield chart shows a consistent upward trend since mid-2020, currently testing a long-term trendline. A move below this trendline could cause the NASDAQ to fly but, a bounce here could put pressure on stocks.
GOLD
The GOLD chart shows a critical support level at $2300, with a move below this level potentially signaling a bearish trend. The RSI is currently neutral but leaning towards bearish territory, indicating waning momentum. The MACD shows a bearish crossover, suggesting increasing downside pressure, while the MFI indicates reduced buying pressure, further supporting a cautious outlook if prices break below the $2300 support level.
SILVER
The Silver chart shows abig level at the $30 level, with prices needing to hold above this support to avoid a further decline. The RSI is neutral, suggesting indecision among traders, while the MACD shows a bearish crossover, indicating potential downside momentum. The MFI reflects decreasing buying pressure, highlighting the importance of the $30 support level for maintaining bullish sentiment.
Overall Market Breadth Rating: 6/10 (Moderately Bullish)
Market Thesis
Current Market Environment: The market shows strong bullish momentum with significant caution signals across various sectors. The SPY and QQQ are showing signs of potential consolidation or minor pullbacks. The USD is gaining strength, which typically inversely affects tech-heavy indices like QQQ. Bitcoin is displaying a strong bullish setup, while traditional safe-haven assets like gold and silver are showing signs of weakening.
Day Traders: For day traders, the focus should be on volatility and quick pivots, taking advantage of short-term price movements influenced by news, technical setups, and market sentiment but, don’t be married to it. Hit it and quit it.
Swing Traders: Swing traders should look to position themselves for potential pullbacks in major indices while capitalizing on bullish trends in select sectors like cryptocurrencies. We can look to get short QQQ driven names while looking at Bitcoin related stocks for more diversifcation.
