🗺️ THE ROADMAP – WHERE PRICE WANTS TO GO
Think of these levels like speed bumps on a road. The BIGGER the number, the harder it is for price to pass through.
📍 YOU ARE HERE: 689.52
🚧 ABOVE YOU (Resistance – Where Price Struggles Going UP):
🔴 695 (21.2M) ⬅️ Medium wall
🔴 694 (27.1M) ⬅️ Big wall + FLIP at 694.13
🔴🔴 693 (29.9M) ⬅️ BIGGER wall + Max Pain
🔴 692 (29M) ⬅️ Big wall
🔴 691 (16M) ⬅️ Medium wall
🔴🔴🔴 690 (61.9M) ⬅️ BIGGEST WALL! (Put wall – heavy resistance)
⬇️ BELOW YOU (Support – Where Price Struggles Going DOWN):
🟢 689 (24.4M) ⬅️ Big floor (you’re just above this)
🟢 688 (24.5M) ⬅️ Big floor
🎯 WHAT THIS MEANS IN SIMPLE TERMS
IF BULLS TRY TO PUSH UP:
First they hit 690 – This is the BIGGEST wall (like hitting a brick wall)
If they break 690, next stops are 692-693 (two more big walls close together)
If they break 693, then they face 694 (the FLIP) – this is the line between bull/bear territory
After 694, it’s 695 then clearer skies
IF BEARS PUSH DOWN:
First they hit 689 (medium floor right below you)
Then 688 (another medium floor)
After that, less resistance down to 681
📊 THE TRAVEL PATH
Current: 689.52 → Goal UP: Break 690 (HUGE), then 693, then 694 (FLIP)
Current: 689.52 → Goal DOWN: Break 689, then 688, then freefall to 681
The 690 level is like a FORTRESS above you – 61.9M positioning with 9.3K puts. This is the KEY level to watch today.
🎯 WHERE WE ARE RIGHT NOW
Current: 689.52 | Flip: 694.13 ✅ | Status: BEAR TERRITORY
4.61 points BELOW flip = Bears in control. We’re BELOW the fortress at 690.
SEE Structure – 6 Rules: (Read the English)
Magnets
Time – When is the setup forming?
Heat Map – Where is the action?
Trend Engine – What’s the direction?
Lines – Are we at key levels?
VWAP – Above or below?
Flow – What’s smart money doing?
Throttle – Is momentum building?
✅ WAIT FOR THESE SETUPS
🐂 IF BULLS ATTACK THE FORTRESS:
Watch: Price pushes to 690+ (attacking the fortress)
Confirm: Stays above 690 for 5+ minutes
Trade: Next stop 692-693, then 694.13 (flip)
Example: SPY hits 690.25 at 10:30 AM, still above 690 at 10:35 AM = FORTRESS BROKEN
🚫 DON’T TRADE THIS ZONE: 688-690
Why? Right at the base of the fortress. Let it decide – break through or bounce back.
🐻 IF FORTRESS HOLDS (Rejection):
Watch: Price tries 690 but gets REJECTED back
Confirm: Drops below 689 and stays there 5+ minutes
Trade: Target 688, then 686
Example: SPY tries 690, rejected to 688.60 at 1:00 PM = FORTRESS HOLDS
🔴 IF BEARS BREAK THE FLOOR:
Watch: Price BREAKS 688
Confirm: Stays below 688 for 5+ minutes
Trade: Target 685, then 681 (freefall zone)
Example: SPY breaks 688, drops to 687.40 at 11:30 AM = BEARS IN CONTROL

⚠️ MOST LIKELY SCENARIOS
✅ Scenario 1: Try to push into 690 fortress (magnet pull)
⚠️ Scenario 2: 690 fortress holds, reject back to 688-686
⚠️ Scenario 3: Break 688 floor = freefall to 685-681
🧠 REMEMBER
690 is the fortress. Everything else is just traveling to or from it.
Don’t use just one tool. Read like a MAVERICK – you’re flying an F-16, not a toy plane.
