Overview: USA SPY 453.3 displays support of 453 and 450 with resistance of
455 and 457.3. I expect the SPY to move +/- 1.67. QQQ 387.8 with resistance of
390 and 392 and support of 387.2 and 385, I expect it to move 2.32. USA
indices are pulling back premarket along with global indices. Macro setup
is negative with long yields higher and US$ lower. Tech and small caps
are taking a breather. TSLA is the only positive MAG7 with AMZN being the
weakest. ZS earnings are weighing on security stocks. Positive movers are the
energy complex, bitcoin names, and precious metal miners. Indices are in
positive gamma, which is supportive, but SPY has tested the bottom of the
expected daily move so in my opinion caution is necessary if the level does not
hold. Take care at 10ET with economic data and Waller speaking. Market moving
data releases Wed and Th may lead to some hedging today which can dampen
markets. Today’s daily expected move levels: SPY (457-453.6) QQQ (391.8-387.2),
IWM (181.8-176.9) SPX(4576-4542.7).

Trade Idea: ZS
ZS pulled back on earnings after a beat but no change to guidance. Price dropped to the expected move of 177.5 and bounced to 182.2. I will take the Straddle approach: long > 184 and fade < 180 to 177.5 or lower.
