    Overview: USA SPY 502 support 500 495  and resistance 505 508.6, SPY expected move +/- 3.2. QQQ 422 with resistance  428 430 and support 422 420 415; expected move +/-4.5. Large cap indices are lower premarket at the bottom of the daily expected move so potential for bounce or accelerated downside move. META, IBM, NOW, lower and dragging down the cloud stocks and companies that raise money through advertising.  GDP is weaker than expected which may help the market but prices paid is higher so focus will now turn to MSFT earnings and PCE Friday.  SPX is  negative gamma hence large moves are possible, so caution is suggested. SPY 500, SPX5000 are major levels to watch with potential for larger downside moves below or bounce. If the market holds up, we may see outperformance in non-growth sectors. Today’s daily expected move levels: SPY (508.6-502),  QQQ (431-422), IWM (199.5-195.8), SPX(5103-5039).

    Trade Idea: META

    META has made a 2 standard deviation move lower on forecast for slower earnings growth. Premarket low 399 and high 432.  Short covering may lead to a bounce that will likely be sold. A decision level is 400 which is a potential bounce level or further breakdown below. Currently very little volume support at the current level.
