Using 1 min time frame for entries on VX algo & day tradingwhat time frames do you use to confirm entries outside of a buy signal?
If I am day trading, I will mainly use the 1 minute time frame to look for moving average support and resistance, and read the candle stick patterns as well from that chart.
However, there are times I'll switch to a 5 minute and 10 minute time frame to take a look at levels for moving averages and see what the candle stick patterns are from there.
So for example, today we had 3 of the x1 sell signals around 9:31, so we pull up the 1 min chart, we are getting confirm break of the 1st moving average support = bearish confirmation #1, follow by DHC = Bearish confirmation #2 , and the sell signal is already 3 confirmations, so we need to short ASAP.

What’s are some news or takeaway from today? and What major news or event impacted the market today?
Today was a bit of a rough trading day, I missed the morning move and was a bit hesitant to make trades.
Saw a lot of MM positioning high up around 6340s and wasn't sure where to get a good entry. Wanted to go in at the MOB but they never went down there.
Sell signals were not as effective today because MM wanted to make ATH but i couldn't figure out the reasoning.

TACO about to become TUFTThe acronym "TACO" has been adopted as a market slogan to explain the shocking volatility brought on by Trump's follow through with his campaign promises to enact and/or adjust tariff's in the USA on its trading partners around the world. The mere mention resulted in a 1,334 point sell-of culminating in April. When Trump walked back {read: backed off in terms of immediacy of effect..} the market "rallied."
However, at the bottom of the lows, ES1=4,832, all strength fell out of the index and all Minor pattern lows were breached. This leads me to believe that 4,832 was just that...a LOW and not a bottom. To resolve this aspect of the price pattern in relation to strength, price and go for a higher low on less strength, or a lower low on more strength...either way, this can only result in a sell-off of .618 of 1,334, or approximately 824 points. Assuming participants intend to go lower on more strength, the bottom will be struck approximately 2,159 points lower in the 4,200 region, since this irregular B has complicated the direct 1.0 hit in the 4900 region. Still possible, but unlikely we swing within 100 points of the low, all while strength falls out and holders get brave.
The other problem I see with this wave higher is that it is sloppy. How?
(1) It is sloppy first of all because as it approached its 1.382 level off the first wave up (at least as noted by a premier Elliot Wave pub) it basically ripped right through. What is healthy for an impulse is to approach the 1.382, then pause for a retracement to the 1.0.
(2) The wave began with an obvious 3 wave pattern, and I was surprised to see prominent publications accepting such an obvious corrective pattern as the start of a true impulse upward. The 3 waves that took us to 5,528.75 are accordingly labeled as the A wave on this chart. Even if this is an Ending Diagonal, which is a motive wave, but not an impulse, which starts with 3 waves, we should at minimum get overlap at the 5,528.75 level in order to continue higher.
(3) We are getting mixed MACD readings between the daily and hourly charts right where price would be expected to blast off if the daily is correct and would be expected to fail if the hourly bearish divergence is correct.
As we approach this 1.618 level of 3,398.75 on ES2, off the pattern as stated, we can use it to guage the downside expectation. A direct hit and sell-off might lead us to the conclusion that the 4900s are in order or even 5400s, but a failure here, 10-20 points off, would be considered more bearish. Giving the benefit of the doubt to price, I have included various ways that price can regain its footing, here stating a primary count that this is the Minor A of an intermediate (B) wave, because it has been very bullish, very disorganized, and has created a higher MACD reading on the daily chart. Alt count is that this is All of Intermediate (B), and Intermediate C should commence to carry price into the low 4k region.
If price is to go higher, it must overcome a 3 wave start, an irregular and disorganized pattern, and conflicting strength readings...not to mention, a Fundamental hurdle that Trump Ultimately Follows Through.

**What’s are some news or takeaway from today? and What major news or event impacted the market today? **
I was a little busy this morning and missed the chance to short the market at MOB with Bearish market structure at 9:30, so I had to wait for the next chance but when i shorted the MOB on the move up, the X7 buy signal came out and pushed market structure bullish.
Ultimately If i had a better entry on my short, I would have been okay, but since i shorted early, i got stopped at at 6306 and it ended up dropping right after that. So the day actually started pretty bad and i was -300 from there and was just trying to climb back and forth the next few hours.

AI Economy Surge: ES Heading to 6626? | VolanX Protocol in Actio🧠 AI Economy Surge: ES Heading to 6626? | VolanX Protocol in Action
📅 Date: July 17, 2025
📈 Instrument: ESU2025 – S&P 500 E-mini Futures
🔍 Timeframe: Daily
🔗 Powered by: WaverVanir DSS | VolanX Protocol
🌐 Macro Backdrop:
📉 Fed on Pause: Market pricing implies a 70% probability of a rate cut in September 2025, driven by disinflation, labor softness, and rising default rates in CRE and consumer credit.
🤖 AI Productivity Shock: Mega-cap tech is driving EPS beats, but real productivity gains are lumpy. We're witnessing a volatile transition to an AI-dominated economy.
💼 Liquidity Conditions: Treasury issuance rising but absorbed for now. Reverse repo drains slowing. This creates windows of upward momentum, though fragile.
📊 Technical Outlook (VolanX DSS):
Price rejected 0.786–0.886 retracement zone, confirming institutional defense near 6,300.
Momentum has shifted back to bulls with a clean reclaim of short-term VWAP bands.
Fibonacci extension targets:
🎯 1.236 = 6,421.50
🎯 1.618 = 6,654.50
🟡 High-probability magnet = 6,626 (aligned with 1.5 std dev extension + volume node gap fill)
📌 Key Levels:
Support: 6,290 • 6,209 (HVN) • 5,721 (Macro POC)
Resistance: 6,421.5 • 6,626 • 6,938
🎯 Trade Setup (Options Strategy):
🛠️ High Conviction Trade – Bull Call Spread
Buy ESU25 6350 Call
Sell ESU25 6625 Call
DTE: 30–45 days
Max Risk: Defined
Max Reward: Captures full extension to 6625 zone
✅ This spread is risk-defined, benefits from moderate upside, and avoids IV crush vs outright long call.
🎯 Use if you expect a grind higher with spikes, not a straight melt-up.
Are We Completing the Larger Ending Diagonal Now?The last time I updated followers of my work; I stated that the pattern was advancing, but NOT with confidence, and that it is marked with choppy, overlapping price action that appears to be an ending diagonal. Those sentiments have not changed.
However, what has changed is I was forecasting a more pronounced drop first before getting to new highs. It is now possible; this move higher is completing that move on a more immediate basis. Although I cannot rule out the previous larger ABC... it is more likely once this high completes, it could represent the end of the bull market.
Only the structure of the decline will inform us what is playing out.
I will warn followers that once this more immediate high completes, I am expecting a forceful and swift reversal that will undoubtedly catch most traders off guard.
Best to all,
Chris

S&P 500: Time For A Pullback??
In this Weekly Market Forecast, we will analyze the S&P 500 for the week of July 14 - 18th.
The S&P 500 had a strong week, until Tariff Tensions Friday arrived.
This by itself doesn't mean we should start looking for sells. With Tuesday CPI Data coming, this short term consolidation is to be expected until the news is announced.
Let the markets pick a direction, and flow with it.
Have a plan of action in place so you can react to the price action promptly!
Enjoy!
May profits be upon you.

TRADING RANGE - ES!DT on the daily, ES! may pullback a little bit lower before moving up and breakout to a establish a new high. Last Friday was a High2 pullback, close lower than the previous bar. Looks like a consolidation or a trading range between 6336 to 6246. On the 15min paints 2 potential move either up or down, and bias seems to be bearish to complete the symmetry of the previous down leg then reverse back up. Rule of thumb buy or sell stop 1 tick above or below the marked lines.

MES1! Stacked Rejection & Distribution into NY ClosePrice is stalling above PDH after tapping a clear HVRA (Supply) zone. We’re seeing layered rejection with a Secondary Distribution Shelf forming beneath it a classic signature of trapped longs and passive seller absorption.
If structure fails to hold above the rejection zone, we expect a reversion through the inefficiency and potential rotation into the demand base.
Key Zones & Structure
HVRA (Supply): 6345–6355 – Liquidity exhaustion, failed breakout
Secondary Distribution Shelf: 6315–6325 – Trap zone, weak re-test
Mean Reversion Target: 6285–6295 – Execution gap, inefficient rotation
Absorption Zone (Demand): 6260–6275 – Institutional long buildup
Bearish Trade Idea
Entry: 6332 (within HVRA)
Stop: 6342 (above HVRA high)
TP1: 6300 – Break of shelf
TP2: 6288 – Fill inefficiency
TP3: 6270 – Rotation into demand
R:R: Approx. 1:2.8 / 1:4.2 depending on target
Staakd Outlook
Stacked rejection with no volume follow-through above PDH. Unless NY reclaims 6330+ with force, structure favoUrs reversion to inefficiency and absorption zone below.
Follow for post-session confirmation and Friday morning bias update.
Staakd Bias: Bearish Lean ★★★★☆
Accumulation to Acceleration ESThis chart shows a long-term market analysis using Elliott Wave Theory, suggesting the market is currently in Wave 4 and preparing for a big Wave 5 rally.
📈 Past yearly moves averaged 15–21%, with 30%+ currently and up to 66% historically.
🟩 A "rebalance" zone (accumulation phase) is forming before a possible breakout.
📊 The next move projects a +60% rally, targeting 7,112 to 7,570.
🔁 Historical patterns and past rallies are being used to support this bullish forecast.
Bottom line: If history repeats, a strong upward move is expected soon.

ES, SPY, SPX will be testing key support on Sunday After a welcome rally into new highs for the s&p, there appears to be a critical crossroad forming. Using the ES continuous contract I have placed 2 anchored VWAP's. The first being anchored to the last higher low on Thursday, June 19. And the the second, being anchored to this last Thursdays high on July 3rd.
For this post we will call the anchor from June 19 - VWAP1. And for the July 3rd anchor - VWAP2
VWAP1 r1 has acted as a key support line since the higher low was set. Successfully bouncing and holding support several times.
As we headed lower on this Thursdays July 3rd session, we remained between the center and r1 of VWAP2 indicating strong selling pressure for the day. With it being a shortened trading day with less liquidity however, I have less concern over the days price action. The forming crossroads and the upcoming Sundays open will be more telling for where we likely head this week.
The blue Horizontal Line at 6266 is placed directly on VWAP1s r1 (green line) which has acted as support. If we trade into this level on the Sunday open, it's a clear signal the sellers are still in control. If however, price can consolidate at that level (6266) and form structure, a breakout of the structure would be evidence of sellers backing off and buyers stepping in creating a good buying opportunity for the week.
Another possible scenario, if we first manage to trade up into s1 of VWAP2 (orange line) around the 6300 level, I will be looking for a short scalp down to the r1 of VWAP1 at 6266. From here it would be prudent to sit and wait for more confirmation on if this is a reversal, or just another pullback in the uptrend.
These are my two trade setups and ideas for Sunday's open. Hope this analysis helps. Happy trading 🤙💰📈
