Hello traders and investors!
1. Fed SOMA balance and market summary
The current market has been volatile and event-driven, without enough power to have substantial upside or downside momentum. Thursday, Nov 17 CPI is the next key event to drive the market. We are expecting $SPY to continue to trade inversely on the USD index and potentially be very choppy until the CPI number. Reducing trading activities might not be a bad idea in this directionless and choppy market.
There are several bearish factors on top of Powell’s hawkish statement during FOMC last week:
(1) Fed speeds up on decreasing its SOMA balance from $8.19 tn to $8.16 tn in the past 7 days. Watch the US stock market could have more downside pressure.
(2) Over the weekend, China reiterated firm adherence to zero-covid approach at Saturday's press conference. Chinese #stocks $BABA $BIDU $JD $NIO $XPEV etc. and companies with revenues heavily relying on China $WYNN $TSLA $AAPL $NKE etc. could gap down on Monday (https://twitter.com/Sino_Market/status/1588788560299454464?s=20&t=VGLCsGDBsdZfKHQXxM4mdw )
(3) All the Fed speakers this coming week are hawkish.
(4) The tech industry is extremely heavy to the downside amid lots of lower-than-expected guidance

Comment:
Daily uptrend has broken. Once the daily EMA support 376.95 breaks, we should see more room for the downside.

Comment:
TSLA: Endless drama after Elon acquired Twitter and lay off 50% of Twitter staff. Tesla investors worry about Elon getting distracted plus Elon might have to sell more Tesla stocks to cover potential lawsuits from Twitter employees.
Weekly is shaping out to be a big bear flag, ideally, we had this similar setup before and it didn't break down, if we do break down this week, let's assume due to CPI or whatever that may be, we like 180s as a target to the downside on this bear flag!
Possible Action (no action yet):
$TSLA 15 mins 204 breaks below and $UUP breaks above 30, $TSLA weekly 200p long or $TSLA weekly 197.5p long

3.e. Cryptocurrency
It is worth mentioning that both Bitcoin $BTC Ethereum $ETH has formed a bottom at $20K and $1200 per coin, respectively no matter how many rate hikes Fed announced. We could deem these levels as solid support for long-term crypto investors, and adding positions slowly for the long term might be an option here.
