Semis Trading Plan: Buy the Reclaim or Buy the Flush?Semis just gave us their first real test of the 50 EMA since the April run started. Price tapped 546 yesterday, printed a rejection wick, and bounced. Textbook so far. First test of a rising 50 EMA after a strong trend leg usually gets bought.
But here's what I'm actually watching, and it's above price, not below.
We lost 584.50, the floor of the entire June consolidation. That level is now overhead resistance, with the 20 EMA falling right into it. That double layer at 584-585 is the lock on this chart.
Volume isn't helping the bulls either. The biggest recent bars are red. That looks more like distribution than a quiet pullback.
So here's my framework : Support is the 533.74 - 546 zone, horizontal level plus rising 50 EMA. Resistance is 584.50. Between the two, it's a decision range, nothing more. I will not get excited with price action within that area. IMO: reclaim 584.50 on a daily close and this pullback was just a breather. 629.72 and then the highs come back into play.
Lose 533.74 on a daily close and the range breaks down. First stop 506.94, but the real buy zone sits lower where the rising 100 EMA converges with the 463-484 shelf. That's where I'd expect the serious bounce IF we purge.
RSI sitting at 45, momentum fully reset, not oversold. Room in both directions, so price decides, not the oscillator. If we retest 533, watch for RSI to print a higher low against a marginal price low. That divergence would be the bull signal worth acting on.
Important to note : Price may continue to trade sideways until the next semis earnings. I would avoid leveraged ETFs, as time decay could significantly erode their value.

SPY Outlook heading into Monday SPY is once again sitting at a key inflection point, trading between well-defined support and resistance after several sessions of back-and-forth price action. The three paths on the chart aren't predictions—they're simply the scenarios I think are most likely to play out over the next couple of trading days.
🟢 Bullish Scenario
If buyers defend the 743.45-740.50 support zone and reclaim 748.32, momentum could build quickly toward 751.31 and potentially challenge the upper trendline. The structure still allows for a strong relief rally, especially if the market shrugs off the recent weakness and rotates back into large-cap tech.
🔴 Bearish Scenario
The bearish case becomes stronger if SPY loses the lower support zone with conviction. One thing worth watching is META. A significant selloff in META, combined with broader weakness across the major indices, could easily spill over into SPY and accelerate downside momentum. Given META's weight in the market, a sharp move there often influences overall sentiment.
🟡 Range-Bound Scenario
There's also a good chance SPY continues bouncing between these key levels before making a decisive move. Choppy markets have a habit of frustrating both bulls and bears, and until one side gains conviction, we could simply see more consolidation.
My Outlook
Ironically, because so many traders seem to be expecting the bearish outcome, I'm actually leaning slightly bullish for Monday's open. The market has a tendency to move where it causes the most frustration, and with sentiment feeling cautious after the recent weakness, I wouldn't be surprised to see an early squeeze higher before the next meaningful move develops.
That doesn't mean the bullish path is guaranteed—far from it. If META or the broader market breaks down with conviction, this thesis can change quickly. For now, though, I think it's worth keeping an open mind instead of assuming Friday's weakness automatically carries into Monday.
As always, the Heavy Diligence Options Signals Indicator is what I'll be relying on for actual entries. The indicator is built for short-term trading on the 5- and 15-minute timeframes, while these scenarios simply provide context for where price is likely to react. Having the roadmap ahead of time makes it much easier to execute the plan when a quality Call or Put signal appears.

SPY Reclaimed The Shelf But The Short Book Is Full.SPY Reclaimed The Shelf But The Short Book Is Full.
SPY held the 740.44 shelf and recovered to 746, turning the failed breakout into a shakeout so far. The months-long bull anchor even healed the crack it had been carrying. But underneath, the setup is turning top-heavy: the downside conditions are now fully loaded for the first time, an unsustainable-upside flag just tripped, and the near-term conviction is reading deeply bearish right as price sits near the highs. Price recovered; the machinery is leaning the other way.
Resistance: 748-752.40 - the band and the failed high
Key resistance: 752.40 - the cycle high area
Current price: 746.26
Support: 740.44 - the shelf that held
Key support: 736.50-732.45 - the recovery base
Structural floor: 716.50 - the operative low this cycle
Two paths from here:
The shakeout completes. 740.44 held and the bull anchor healed its anti-signal, so a push through 748 back toward 752 would confirm the failed breakout as a shakeout and put the highs back in play. The anchor that would not break all week is standing, and price is holding the upper half of the range.
The top-heavy read resolves down. The downside conditions are loaded at their max for the first time, euphoria is flagged on the recovery, and the hourly conviction is reading near its floor with price up here - a divergence. A loss of 740.44 opens 736.50 then the 732.45 base, and that is where the standing bull anchor finally gets its real test.
The shakeout read is holding and the bull anchor healed - but the short book is now full, euphoria is flagged, and conviction is diverging bearish at the highs. Price near resistance with the machinery loaded short is the setup that resolves fast when it goes. 740.44 held once; whether it holds the next test is the tell.

Daily Actionable SPY/SPX Plans (07 JUL)Daily Actionable SPY/SPX Plans
Market Technical Outlook
Our approach today is simple: sell supply, buy demand.
The market remains trapped inside a range. SPY continues to show relative strength versus QQQ, as largecap stocks are outperforming while many technology names remain under pressure.
Because of this relative strength:
Long setups: Prefer SPY
Short setups: Prefer QQQ
The relative strength divergence is very clear, making the CC Model an ideal entry framework.
Risk Index
This algorithm reads macro conditions and converts them into a technical risk framework. It was developed internally at UA CAPITAL and remains the primary indicator I use for both short term and long term positioning decisions.
Long term: Risk On (Bullish)
Short term: Slightly Bearish to Neutral
Strategies / Scenarios
Long Scenarios:
Demand Zones: 747 → 743 → 740.5
Long Trigger: After testing a demand zone, wait for a 1 hour bullish candle close back above the level, then look to buy calls.
Invalidation: A 1 hour candle close beyond the nearest swing high or swing low that formed the trigger.
Short Scenarios
Supply Zone: 751.5
Short Trigger: After testing the supply zone, wait for a 1 hour bearish candle close back below the level, then look to buy puts.
Invalidation: A 1 hour candle close beyond the nearest swing high or swing low that formed the trigger.
Profit Taking: Since the market is trading inside a range, take profits regularly for every $1 move. Range bound markets can reverse quickly, so avoid overstaying positions.
Breakout Strategy (Long)
If SPY breaks 752.5 with a strong, high volume 1 hour bullish candle close, long positions become valid.
Targets: 755 → 758 → 760
Invalidation: 1 hour candle close below 750.
Notice: Starting a fresh, high frequency track record for SPY, QQQ, and core equities on TradingView. Moving forward, all institutional research, weekly outlooks, and mid week updates will be tracked consistently right here.
