Thanks for this useful information!
If you guys check my previous posts in this thread, I have accurately predicted the June market decline.
Now I will make another call that will show how TA works.
Friday 7/15/2022 is the day equity starts a short term up trend.
It was the first day of an up trend. So how you profit ? Long spx, set a stop at Friday day low.
9 in10 chance the up trend will come true.
In the 1/10 chance it fails, you have stop to cut your loss.
You might want to know wmwmw, that SPX is an Index and is not an ETF. You cannot buy shares in SPX. So it is impossible to get "Long SPX" as you say and set a stop. That is why options on the SPX index are "cash settled at expiration". There is no underlying to be exercised.

OK, making "a call" does not explain how TA works. Show us your TA analysis that led you to this conclusion.
It does.
The support and resistence level are price analysis, which is TA.
No FA can tell you that.
And nobody will give you a free holy grail.
I was not expecting this kind of answer especially your last sentence. So I will give the analysis that I expected you to give explaining the TA in this situation. See the chart below. You have a low on June 17 and a peak on June 28. After that you had 5 days that were spike down "pin bar" lows all in the area of the 61.8% Fib retracement of the June 17 low to June 28 high. Thus with the strong move up on Friday the 15th there is a TA expectation that this will support a move higher with a stop below the pin bar lows. That is your "holy grail" although you probably did not throw in the Fib analysis which most people on ET do not find a useful tool.

That is what you call a holy grail?
That is garbage.
Prove to me that Technical Analysis Works.
