  • MU pivots

    • Pivot = 1200

      • Long above, Targets 1240-1250, 1300

      • Short below, potential supports at 1150, 1100

        • Below 1090 can move lower to test peak gamma exposure at 1050.

          • Should 1050 be tested, and the area is a likely floor and has the potential to act as support to slow further potential downside

Economic Calendar

  • Thursday, June 25

    • U.S. GDP final reading Q1-’26

    • PCE/ Core PCE Inflation reading

      • PCE expected at 3.97% YoY

      • Core PCE expected at 3.30% YoY

Keep an eye on these inflation expectations and readings. New Fed Chair Walsh is taking a different approach to inflation

SPY 0.00%↑ pivots

SPY 4h via TrendSpider

The SPY is currently trading just below 747 in pre-market trading. Gamma exposure at the start of the week shows that the SPY is between key positioning areas and will need to pick a direction over the coming week of trading.

SPY net gamma

  • SPY pivots

    • Below 747 can see some rangebound weakness

      • Targets 745, 743, 741

        • Should 740 hold as support and the SPY can move back higher within the range

        • Continued weakness if <740

          • Targets 737, 735, 733

    • Above 748 forces negative gamma exposure offsides and can allow for a trade towards 750

    • Long >750

      • Targets 752, 753, 755

        • Continued strength ≥755, targets 758, 760

The bullish price action clearly caught the eye of at least one participant on Friday as they rushed to position in calls during the final minute of Thursday’s trading.
