The SPY is setting up to trade between $208-212 for the remainder of the 2015.
Earnings season is winding down and the interest rate change seems to be on hold until 2016.I know that sounds crazy to make a prediction on the next six weeks of trading, but you need to put the pieces together to create your thesis.
Where is the catalyst to break us out of this range?

Day Trading Game Plan: The SPY ETF Outlook
SPY price action trades into an inside day. Too many traders are focusing on the strong close. Yes, the afternoon buying was nice but it’s still an inside day, plus the reversal was fueled by a minuscule 76 million shares.

Pete’s Notes:
- Bullish reversal in many stocks but also an inside day.
- I like the reversal but we need to trade above the previous day high to confirm the new buy.
- Plenty of chatter about the market topping out after one day of selling. Yesterday’s price action shows why you need more time to call a top.
- Shifting strategy in the SPY from a trend trade to an inside day breakout. Not calling for direction but an expansion in volatility.
Charts in Focus
Visa news is bullish, the chart is reflecting the positive expansion and revenue. A breakout above $79.50 has room to go.
