Cup and Handle Forming Inside a Primary UptrendState Street SPDR S&P 500 ETFBATS:SPYCEO_of_WaverVanir_Int_LLCSPY 15m | Long Bias | Cup and Handle Forming Inside a Primary Uptrend 📈 STRUCTURE The primary trend is up and this pullback is corrective, not distributive. From the 740 low on 7/8, SPY ran to 755.42, retraced into the 748 zone on 7/13 and 7/14, then reclaimed 755.56. That sequence draws the cup. The current fade from 755.56 into 752.50 is the handle, a shallow drift on declining momentum, exactly where handles are supposed to form: the upper third of the prior range. Handle low is holding above the 0.618 retrace of the last impulse leg at 752.67 and the 0.5 at 751.78. Corrections that stop at the golden pocket inside an uptrend are continuation setups until proven otherwise. 🧠VWAP BUY ZONE The anchored VWAP band is the tell. Price is sitting directly on the upper band at 752.52 with the lower confluence shelf at 751.77. That 751.77 to 752.52 window is the buy zone: anchored VWAP support, the 0.5 and 0.618 fib cluster, and prior consolidation all stacked in a 75-cent range. Institutions defend anchored VWAP from the swing low because it marks their average inventory price. As long as SPY holds this shelf, dips are supply absorption, not trend failure. The rising 200-period MA at 749.97 sits just below as the structural invalidation line. ⚔ FLOW CONFIRMATION Options tape supports the level. Three put sweeps executed at the bid within minutes (749P, 750P, 754P, combined ~$437K premium), which reads as put supply into the dip rather than protection buying. On the call side, a $331K Jan 2027 765C sweep lifted at the ask. Long-dated call demand plus short-dated put selling at the exact fib and VWAP confluence is the flow signature of accumulation. 🎯 TARGETS AND RISK Measured move off the cup depth projects into the fib extensions overhead: 759.30 (1.5) first, 760.23 to 760.32 (1.618) as the primary objective. Entry zone 751.77 to 752.52. Invalidation on a 15m close below 749.97, which breaks the 200MA, the golden pocket, and handle structure simultaneously. Bias: long above 751.77. Reversal risk exists on any handle, but structure, fib confluence, anchored VWAP defense, and flow all point the same direction. Trade the level, not the opinion. Not financial advice.
