S&P Outlook
Bear Case: As of Friday, the price closed at a significant daily trend line, coinciding with 4613. It’s important to note that this week sees the expiration of futures contracts, leading to new contract levels. The adjusted level to watch is 4664.25 (equivalent to last week’s 4613). Bears will aim to keep the price below this level. If they succeed, the next likely target is the daily demand at 4615.
Bull Case: The price is currently at a critical daily trend line, with 4664.25 being a key level (equivalent to 4613 in the previous futures contract). For a bullish trend to establish, it is essential for bulls to break and sustain above 4664.25. The next supply level to watch above this is 4709.50. Should the price retrace, 4615 may provide potential support.

Expert Insights & Predictions
Outlook on Upstart Holdings
This week, I will be zoning in on a ticker I haven’t looked at in what seems like years, $UPST.
A massive fall from all time highs BUT with that being said, a chart that to me looks like it has the potential for a massive move. We are currently in the middle of the Mando Model, which is a market structure shift, retracement into a discount imbalance, and rip to previous high, which in this case is 72.58.
Thus far, we’ve made a perfect retracement into the bullish imbalance just below that 79% Retracement and bounced. We have one large imbalance to move through before getting back to that high. Above that high at 72.58, the next level of Buyside liquidity is the high of 94.43 dating back to May of 22.
I am looking at this name from the weekly perspective so it can absolutely take some time to get to my ultimate destination, but a name that has absolutely drawn my attention. — @MandoTrading
