S&P 500 INDEX MODEL TRADING PLANS for WED. 3/6/24
The Nvidia/A.I./softlanding exuberance has the index continuing to print new all-time highs. This is an uncharted territory for the markets, and our models are turning a bit cautious albeit nowhere close to adapting a bearish bias as long as the index is above 5045 on a daily close basis, regardless of the valuation concerns and the stickier-inflation concerns. Bears need to be patient and not jump the gun, as any hasty shorts could prove to be choking in another bear trap.
Aggressive, Intraday Trading Plans:
For today, our aggressive intraday models indicate going long on a break above 5116, 5105, 5088, 5076, or 5061, and going short on a break below 5114, 5099, 5085, 5074, or 5058.
Models indicate explicit exits for today. Models indicate taking these signals from 11:01am EST.
By definition the intraday models do not hold any positions overnight – the models exit any open position at the close of the last bar (3:59pm bar or 4:00pm bar, depending on your platform’s bar timing convention).
To avoid getting whipsawed, use at least a 5-minute closing or a higher time frame (a 1-minute if you know what you are doing) – depending on your risk tolerance and trading style – to determine the signals.
