The morning market indictor

TL;DR: Risk-on tape with broad-based strength. Technology (+2.66%) leads while Energy (-4.12%) lags. RSI is overbought above 75 — pullback risk is elevated, but in a strong trend this signals momentum rather than reversal. Avoid chasing without confirmation.

SPY is testing $734.59 resistance with intraday support at $726.49. Do you see a breakout or a rejection here, and what would change your mind?

If you comment, include: your bias (long/short/neutral), your key level to watch, and how you'd manage it if it moves against you immediately.

Primary Scenarios for Today

1. Trend Day Up — If SPY holds above $707.57 (20-day MA), I favor longs on dips toward $726.49. Target: $734.59.
2. Range Day — If price chops between $726.49 and $734.59, I fade extremes and reduce size.
3. Liquidation Break — If SPY loses $726.49 on heavy volume, I look for short continuations toward $718.39.

Reminders Respect your pre-defined risk per trade. No revenge trading. Let levels prove themselves. Wait for confirmation instead of guessing tops and bottoms. Size according to volatility, not emotion. Smaller size in choppy conditions.
