2k and SPY - not SPX - options

i have half decent service again, so here is what i am looking at. i got lucky not having decent chart access, but in a way was good because had to sit there old style and just watch tape.

may scoop a 4/3 spx in here. it's a grand slam shot given the account size so fine being a little late...tbd . https://www.tradingview.com/x/creTqwKF/

the cash settle into the weekend is the rationale btw. not desiring to hold over the weekd and may as well grab the index if the pricing works. the risk obviously is the cash committed hence just hanging out for now and watching it.

two fridays ago i thought that the mkt holding 2400 intraday was a reason to get long and i lost 70k, so i'm gonna just stew on that briefly and watch this play out.

imo here is the question...are we in an ascending triangle ...or are we shorter term in a bear flag (which could still be part of an ascending triangle..)..grr https://www.tradingview.com/x/tuiRCa9c/
