S&P 500 Daily Chart Analysis For Week of June 18, 2026Technical Analysis and Outlook:
In this week's abbreviated trading session, the S&P 500 Index experienced a substantial decline, followed by a robust rebound, mirroring the performance observed in the preceding week. This movement has established a significant Mean Support level marked at 7,418.
Current market analysis indicates that the Index is in a rebound phase as part of an In-Force movement to retest the primary target, the Mean Resistance level at 7,553, alongside the completion of the Outer Index Rally at 7,610.
However, there exists a considerable probability of a reversal in the immediate advancement, which could trigger a retest of the critical Mean Support at 7,418. Should this scenario materialize, further decline may occur, potentially leading to a subsequent Mean Support level at 7,265, and ultimately reaching the Outer Index Dip at 7,160. Bitcoin(BTC/USD) Daily Chart Analysis For Week of June 19, 2026Technical Analysis and Outlook:
During the current trading session, Bitcoin has successfully completed the Interim Inner Coin Rally at 67,200, then rapidly retreated to establish a Mean Support level at 62,200.
The present market analysis suggests that Bitcoin is poised to approach the Mean Resistance level of 64,800. Additionally, there is potential for further advancement toward the upper targets, specifically the secondary Mean Resistance at 66,300 and a possible retest of the recently completed Interim Inner Coin Rally marked at 67,200.
Conversely, there remains a possibility that the cryptocurrency could continue to experience an In-Force drawdown, potentially retesting the Mean Support at 62,200. There is also the potential for a coin to decline and confront the completed Outer Coin Dip at 60,000, along with additional targets outlined in the accompanying chart. Can AST SpaceMobile Deploy Fast Enough to Win?AST SpaceMobile (ASTS) cleared a real hurdle on June 17, when a SpaceX Falcon 9 launched its BlueBird 8, 9, and 10 satellites from Cape Canaveral. These are Block 2 craft, the largest commercial communications arrays ever deployed in low Earth orbit at roughly 2,400 square feet each, capable of up to 120 Mbps directly to standard, unmodified smartphones. The launch lifts the constellation to nine operational satellites. That is a genuine milestone, but it should be read against the scale the business actually requires.
The moat is real and increasingly well-supported. AST's differentiator is connecting ordinary phones with no special hardware, and the regulatory and commercial pieces are falling into place. The FCC has authorized commercial SpaceMobile service in the US, the company touts the industry's largest carrier ecosystem with partners including AT&T and Verizon, and it reports over $1.2 billion in contracted revenue commitments. For a company still selling a future network, that is meaningful validation that demand and spectrum access are not the binding constraints.
Execution and capital are. Nine satellites is a long way from the roughly 45 AST needs in orbit by year-end to deliver continuous service, and the path runs straight through its launch providers. April made that risk concrete, when Blue Origin's New Glenn failure destroyed BlueBird 7 and forced the pivot to SpaceX. The financials underline the gap, with first-quarter revenue near $14.7 million against expectations of about $39 million and a net loss of roughly $191 million. And Starlink, backed by SpaceX's own launch capacity, is racing into the same direct-to-cell market.
The honest read is that ASTS is a credible technology leader priced as a venture-stage bet. The stock near $87 sits well below its $134 May high, with a Hold consensus and an average target around $85 implying little near-term upside. The single most important variable is launch cadence. Reaching roughly 45 satellites by year-end would convert the thesis from promise to product, while another failed or delayed launch would reset it. This is an asymmetric, high-conviction position for investors who can tolerate dilution and binary launch risk, not a steady compounder.

RSKD: When fraudsters work overtime and Riskified profits from iWhile most investors debate artificial intelligence, Riskified( NYSE:RSKD ) is already using it where mistakes cost real money. The company helps the world's largest online retailers distinguish genuine buyers from fraudsters, analyzing billions of dollars in transactions in real time. The bigger e-commerce gets, the more expensive every mistake becomes.
Fundamentals
The latest quarter showed the business continues to gain momentum. Revenue grew 7 percent year over year to 88.3 million dollars, while gross merchandise volume (GMV) reached 37.2 billion dollars, up 9 percent. Billings growth outpaced revenue growth, typically indicating sustained positive momentum in coming quarters.
Profitability looks particularly compelling. Non-GAAP gross profit rose to 46.3 million dollars with a margin of 52.5 percent. Adjusted EBITDA surged 370 percent to 6.2 million dollars, while earnings per share came in at 0.05 dollars, beating market expectations. The balance sheet holds 276.3 million dollars in cash and investments with virtually no debt. Free cash flow for the quarter was 9 million dollars.
Management is so confident in the business outlook that it continues aggressive share buybacks. In the first quarter alone, 6.2 million shares were repurchased for 27.5 million dollars at an average price of 4.44 dollars. In June, the board additionally approved 75 million dollars for the buyback program. When a company actively buys its own shares, it usually signals that leadership considers the current valuation attractive.
Riskified continues to expand its product ecosystem. In the first quarter, it launched ARIA, an AI-powered risk intelligence analyst that enables clients to get plain-language explanations of suspicious transactions without diving into complex analytics. The company also strengthened its integration with Shopify through Dispute Resolve and expanded collaboration with travel giant Amadeus via the Outpayce platform.
The quality of the customer base deserves special attention. The number of merchants using more than one Riskified product grew 50 percent year over year, and their contribution now exceeds 30 percent of total revenue. This is an important metric, as expanding existing customers is typically significantly cheaper than acquiring new ones.
Technicals
On the weekly chart, price broke out of a descending wedge that had been containing quotes and successfully completed a retest of the breakout zone. The stock is now holding above key moving averages, confirming a shift in the medium-term market structure. Yesterday's close, June 15, was 4.95 dollars. Rising volume after the breakout shows institutional participation, while trend indicators remain bullish. As long as price stays above the retest zone, the primary scenario remains continuation toward the 7.50 dollar area, which is the next major target for buyers.
The market still values Riskified as a small fintech company, but the numbers are starting to tell a different story. The company is already generating profit, building cash flow, actively buying back shares, and expanding its presence in the fast-growing AI payments protection segment. Sometimes the most interesting stories begin not when everyone is talking about them, but when most haven't yet noticed that the business has already started operating more efficiently.
And if fraudsters aren't planning to leave the internet, Riskified's workload will only grow.

S&P 500 Daily Chart Analysis For Week of June 12, 2026Technical Analysis and Outlook:
In this week's trading session, the S&P 500 Index experienced a substantial decline followed by a robust rebound, establishing a significant Mean Support level at 7,265.
At present, the Index is rebounding, with the primary target identified as the Inner Index Rally level at 7,520, while the current Mean Resistance is at 7,456.
Projections for the forthcoming trading sessions suggest that, upon reaching the Inner Index Rally level of 7,520, an In-Force pullback may occur towards the Mean Resistance at 7,456, which serves as an inverse support level.
Furthermore, there is a considerable likelihood of continued downward movement, leading to a retest of the critical Mean Support at 7,265, with the potential for a further decline extending to the ultimate Outer Index Dip at 7,160. Bitcoin(BTC/USD) Daily Chart Analysis For Week of June 12, 2026Technical Analysis and Outlook:
Bitcoin has experienced steady fluctuations this week, oscillating between the completed Outer Coin Dip at $60,000 and the Mean Resistance at $64,200.
Current market analysis suggests that Bitcoin is poised to break out of this range to the upside, targeting the Interim Inner Coin Rally at $66,300.
Market participants should note that once the price reaches the Interim Inner Coin Rally of $66,300, it will likely trigger an in-force pullback towards the Mean Resistance at $64,200, which serves as an inverse support level. Additionally, the price may drop to retest the completed Outer Coin Dip at $60,000. ONDS 1D: Drones at the structural runwayOn the daily chart Ondas continues to develop within a rising channel after a deep but technically healthy pullback. Price is holding the higher timeframe trendline that has supported the move since the initial impulse and is now returning to the 7.85–8.00 area, where prior accumulation was visible.
This zone aligns with multiple technical factors. The 0.702 Fibonacci retracement sits at 7.98. The rising trendline support intersects the same region, along with a previously formed order block. Price is not breaking through impulsively but testing the level with deceleration. ADX remains subdued, signaling compression rather than directional pressure. Volume between 7.80 and 8.20 reflects accumulation rather than aggressive distribution.
Structurally , higher lows remain intact within the expanding rising channel. The pullback into trendline support reads as a technical retest rather than a structural breakdown. As long as the 7.85–8.00 zone holds, the base scenario allows for a move toward 14.00 as the first liquidity reaction area. Above that, 17.72 represents the upper boundary of the channel and the prior extreme. These are not forecasts, but logical structural reaction zones.
Fundamentally , the company remains in a growth phase. Q3 2025 revenue reached 10.10M USD versus 7.03M USD estimated. Q4 2025 revenue is projected at 27.49M USD. Q3 2025 EPS came in at -0.03 USD, with Q4 estimated at -0.04 USD. Operating and free cash flow remain negative on a TTM basis, reflecting ongoing expansion and investment. Q3 financing cash flow of 394.23M USD indicates active capital raising to scale operations.
As long as price respects trendline support and the 7.85–8.00 zone, the structure suggests base formation within a rising channel rather than a breakdown.
Sometimes the runway matters more than the takeoff.

S&P 500 Daily Chart Analysis For Week of June 5, 2026Technical Analysis and Outlook:
The Index in this week's trading session has puked as a result of the completion of the very significant target Outer Index Rally 7,610.
At present, the market is undergoing an In-Force retracement, with the primary support level identified at 7,340. There is an elevated risk of a further downturn, specifically targeting the support level at 7,205.
Projections for the forthcoming trading sessions suggest that, upon reaching the Mean Support level of 7,340, an In-Force Rebound is anticipated, which is expected to propel the S&P 500 Index to the Mean Resistance level of 7,440. Bitcoin(BTC/USD) Daily Chart Analysis For Week of June 5, 2026Technical Analysis and Outlook:
This week's trading session has seen Bitcoin plummet to the lows of the completed Outer Coin Dip on 6 February 2026, in the 60,000s. Current market analysis indicates that Bitcoin is in the process of recovering as a dead-cat bounce, pushing toward the Mean Resistance at 63,800.
However, the current dominant downtrend indicates that the price will continue to decline, ultimately reaching Inner Coin Dip 57,000, with the ultimate outcome marked by the next Outer Coin Dip at 45,000.
Market participants should be aware that once the Mean Resistance 63,800 is played, the following recource to retest of the completed Outer Coin Dip 60,000 will be triggered. Can Trading Make You the Richest Person in the World?Hello Traders!
Every trader has imagined it at least once.
"What if I become one of the richest people in the world through trading?"
It's a fascinating thought. After all, we hear stories about legendary traders making millions and even billions from the markets. But this question deserves an honest answer. Trading can absolutely create extraordinary wealth, but not in the way most people imagine. The biggest challenge isn't making money once. It's consistently growing capital over decades while managing risk, emotions, and market uncertainty.
Can Trading Make You Rich?
The simple answer is yes.
Many successful traders have built incredible wealth from the markets.
Trading offers unlimited upside because there is no fixed salary or income ceiling
Compounding can become extremely powerful when profits are consistently reinvested over time
Financial markets provide opportunities every year , allowing skilled traders to keep growing capital
The opportunity is real, But so is the difficulty.
Why Becoming the Richest Person is Different
Making money and becoming the richest person on Earth are two very different goals.
Most of the world's richest individuals built businesses that could scale globally and generate wealth beyond their personal effort
Trading capital grows, but businesses can create value through employees, products, technology, and networks
Even legendary traders often used investing, funds, or business ventures to expand their wealth beyond trading alone
Trading can make you wealthy. But building an empire usually requires more than trading.
What Most Traders Get Wrong
Many people focus only on the potential rewards, but Very few think about the journey.
They underestimate how much discipline and patience are required to survive long enough to compound wealth
They focus on getting rich quickly instead of getting better consistently
They chase huge returns while ignoring risk management and capital preservation
The dream is exciting. The process is demanding.
The Real Power of Trading
Trading offers something that very few professions can provide and that is Freedom.
The ability to grow capital independently
The flexibility to trade from almost anywhere in the world
The opportunity to create wealth without needing a large organization or business structure
For many traders, that freedom is more valuable than becoming the richest person alive.
Rahul's Tip
Don't just ask:
"Can trading make me the richest person in the world?"
Ask:
"Can trading make me financially free?"
Because that goal is much closer, much more realistic, and still life changing.
