🥞 Grandma’s Quote of the Day:
“We didn’t flip hard, but we stayed warm on the skillet. 6500 was off the table, but 6450 didn’t get served either. Just a steady simmer.”
📊 What Grandma Called in the Morning:
🔼 If Upside:
| Magnet | Level | Outcome |
| M1 | 6475 | ❌ Not tested |
| M2 | 6500 | ❌ Missed — remained overhead |
| M3 | 6525 | ❌ Not in play |
➡️ None of the upside pancakes flipped. Grandma saw them, but the bulls never got enough heat.
🔽 If Downside:
| Magnet | Level | Outcome |
| D1 | 6455 | ❌ Not reached |
| D2 | 6450 | ❌ Held strong |
| D3 | 6440 | ❌ No test at all |
➡ ️ Bears didn’t even turn the oven on today. Downside magnets stayed untouched.
📉 Reality: We Just… Chopped.
- SPX opened near the low and stayed within a tight 25-point range.
- Volume was solid, but no conviction in either direction.
- Both call and put sides decayed — and Grandma warned us about the “stuck in the pan” risk.
🎓 Final Grade: B+
✅ Correctly avoided the “rip” hype
✅ Highlighted neutral bias and possible stall
✅ Sideways grind was forecasted in tone
❌ Neither direction played out — upside never confirmed, and downside stayed cold
“Not my flashiest forecast, sugar — but I told y’all to expect a tight skillet. No flips, just warm pancakes sittin’ there all day.”
