This Level Seems Important

What a weird day, huh? After the FOMC announcement, I got excited that we might actually have a big red day, but it was not to be.

What I can say, however, is that looking at the equity futures, there certainly seem to be some quite a bit of important around the Fibonacci retracements, which are acting as attractants/support/resistance. Here is the weekly chart:

Specifically, the level in question is 4245, which has, in recent weeks, been quite a “draw” for price action.

In case you don’t think something as crude as a weekly chart, with anchor points that are literally years apart, matters, I offer you this minute bar graph of today's action.

So, yeah, that was a heartbreaker, but at least we have some sense as to where that support came from.

I guess you neglected the trip to 4412 was a draw too? That being said, it insures we see 4000 before 4700.
I can't believe they pay him money lol
Me too.
I appreciate your great analysis. More so I commend you on putting out not only your thoughts but trades as well. It's always easier for individuals to criticize from the sidelines. As traders, we try and predict the future based on past and current events, and trade accordingly. Please continue the insightful articles.

Patience young skywalker. Today will be the reddest day of 2022

US indices seemed to have gone up a lot, nobody realized it's just range bounded.  Everybody's thought it's the start of another bull market, LOL!
JP Morgan reduced their projection for the SP500 in 2022 twice, and is still at 4700.
