Shortened Week Ends Strong as Month Closes on Momentum
Ahoy there, Trader! ⚓️
It’s Phil…
We’re heading into the final stretch of May – and just like that, the week (and month) is almost over. But while most expect end-of-month choppiness, futures have something different in mind this morning: another explosive overnight session.

SPX Market Briefing
As I said in a recent training, “We’re bullish until we’re bearish.” That still holds true today.
Even though the upper Bollinger Band was nearly touched yesterday, it wasn’t – so no tag. And no tag means no reversal signal.
The bullish stance that began last Friday continues. And while some traders might be tempted to overthink things this week, I’ll say this – the mechanical system is doing its job. Visual zones on my charts continue to clearly separate action vs no-action levels and help confirm directional bias.
That said, it’s been a slow week in terms of new pulse bars. Not much to work with. A few teasing setups, but nothing clean enough to trigger the next trade. So we wait.
Now, with the month-end upon us, I’d usually say this type of day tends to be a sloppy one. But ES futures are up around +85 points overnight – so all bets are off.
What’s even more interesting? The daily chart is forming a clean island reversal. If that setup holds into the open, it could ignite interest from higher-timeframe traders – potentially giving this bullish pop even more legs.
Finally, with yesterday’s ADD finishing at a bearish extreme, the market has a clear springboard setup. Upside looks more probable than not as we head into June.
Let’s see what the day brings.
Expert Insights:
Mistake: Overcomplicating a simple system.
This week’s market has been a masterclass in waiting. No pulse bar. No new triggers. And still – traders ask, “Should I flip? Should I hedge? Should I force something?”
The truth is, mechanical setups work because they remove guesswork. If you start trading what might happen instead of waiting for what has happened, you’re not trading the system – you’re freelancing.
✅ Stick to the plan.
✅ Trade the confirmation, not the forecast.
✅ Measure your pulse bars, mark your zones, and wait.
Simple wins.
Rumour Has It…
BREAKING: Island Watch Intensifies
Anchors at the Financial Weather Room were seen lighting scented candles this morning as SPX gapped above yesterday’s highs.
With a clean island gap forming on the daily chart, one panicked host yelled, “We summon the spirit of 5940!” while another kept chanting “higher timeframe buyers assemble!”
This is entirely made-up satire. Probably!
