Overview: SPY 568 Expected move 7.1 Resistance 570 575 580 583
Support 568.8 565; QQQ 484 Expected move 7.6 Resistance 488.5 490 495 500
Support 484 480. Global indices lower with Asian and European indices lower
overnight. European stocks lower as Germany having difficulty attracting enough
votes to increase govt spending, which has been a catalyst for the surge in the
Euro and European stocks. USA indices are lower with SPY and QQQ at the bottom
of the daily expected move which is a level to bounce or breakdown from. Key
put wall support/breakdown levels are SPY565 QQQ 480. Bitcoin -4.5% is a sign
of risk-off and potential liquidity constraint and impacting the usual cohort
of MSTR MARA etc. I have some concern that bitcoin weakness is spilling over
into the equity market. Bonds are bid with TLT +1% which is a risk-off
indicator as is Yen+.68%. MAG7 are all negative with TSLA, NVDA and META
leading to the downside. China stocks like BABA are down as they pullback from
technically extended levels. Vix futures are inverted which indicates short
term institutional hedging and is a major red flag. Dealers in negative gamma
means that moves in either direction will be exaggerated. SPY and QQQ are at
the bottom of daily expected moves and can use as a pivot i.e. long above,
short below and use Put wall as a potential reversal level should market move
lower.

Trade Idea: TLT
TLT is potentially a safety trade as investors leave equity and concerns for economic slowdown continue. Large premarket move so short-term stretched. Move above Friday high (91.25) can be used for a long with target 93.
