OCT 12th-16th
A lot has happened over the past month. Reignited war and then cool off. SPY dipping to 750s. The markets go on. Lets see what this week looks like after SPY made new highs again.
FUTURES
ES (S&P 500) is heavily skewed by CTA shorting: CTAs added +25k fresh shorts, creating a lopsided, top-heavy short positioning setup that is primed for a sharp squeeze if price holds support.
NQ (Nasdaq) is cleaner and more bid: AMs are actively expanding long exposure (+5.5k), indicating that institutional capital prefers tech over the broader S&P index right now.
Execution: Watch for a flush into primary High-Timeframe (HTF) Support or Put Walls.
When price reaches that liquidity pocket and prints an absorption bar on the DOM, look for long entries or take profits on remaining puts. A sharp, violent short-squeeze back toward resistance can materialize instantly if CTAs are forced to cover.
