SPX500: Is smart money accumulating? [Video]
|The latest SPX500 correction has raised concerns among traders. However, a detailed analysis using Elliott Wave theory and MACD reveals a crucial signal: momentum is weakening while the price has declined. This divergence suggests a possible institutional absorption phase.
What is institutional absorption?
When retail traders panic and sell their positions, liquidity providers (Smart Money) seize the opportunity to accumulate. This behavior often signals that the market is forming a bottom before a significant upward move.
Key zone: SPX500 at 5,600
Based on Elliott Wave analysis, the 5600 level is a critical support area. The market may rebound sharply if institutional absorption is complete and selling pressure fades.
Confirmation with MACD
The MACD indicator provides additional insights:
✅ Divergence between price and momentum
✅ Declining selling pressure
✅ Potential bullish reversal signal
These factors reinforce that Smart Money will likely accumulate at this key level.
How to trade this setup
Scenario 1: If SPX500 holds the 5600 support, a potential entry could be considered with confirmation of a reversal.
Scenario 2: If the price breaks lower, waiting for a sharp reaction could provide a better entry.
Risk Management: A tight stop-loss and monitoring price action are crucial for validation.
