US500 1D: Bullish Structure Intact but Lacks Momentum.S&P 500 IndexPURPLETRADING:US500LIVERMORE333 EMA Structure: Barely avoided a Death Cross in late July, keeping the Golden Cross alive. Currently, price is "floating" around the EMA 20, showing a lack of immediate directional conviction. Market Context: Maintains a bullish structure by holding the 7,229.19 low and breaking the 7,624.47 swing high. This relative strength is currently providing much-needed support for the weaker JP225. The Pivot: Bullish Continuation: Requires a decisive breakout above 7,817.45. Bearish Shift: If EMAs begin to contract (squeeze) instead of expanding, the long edge disappears. A close below the EMA 20/50 would target the 7,229.19 swing low, shifting my focus to short entries. The US500's resilience is the only thing keeping the indices afloat. However, without a new high, the risk of a "bull trap" increases. I am waiting for this intermarket tension to resolve—either by a clean breakout or a structural failure. US500 is the "last line of defense" for the bulls. I remain Neutral until we see a reaction at the EMA cluster or a break of the recent high.
