Episode notes
S&P 500 Shows Weak Support And Downside Risk
- S&P 500 has lost momentum and shows more downside risk than upside according to Kevin Steuer's confluence model.
- His system rates support as light (twos and fours) and resistance as medium (sevens and eights), implying a likely move toward ~650 if Iran escalates further.
Most Market Volume Is Programmatic So Trade Like Machines Do
- Kevin highlights that ~90% of US equity volume is programmatic, so most trading happens against machines rather than humans.
- His platform models many indicators together to mirror how institutional algorithms create intraday price moves.
Hold Cash And Avoid Leverage During High Volatility
- Manage risk by keeping cash and avoiding leverage during high uncertainty; Kevin is 41% cash and uses no leverage.
- He scales into positions, avoids trading the first volatile hour, and tightens stops when VIX and other indicators flash warning signs.
