SPX Trade Plan — January 5, 2026

A few notes before we get into today’s trading plan:

We are opening into a nearly identical zone and GEX profile as we saw on Friday. Because the structural “gravity” of the market remains consistent, the primary game plan is unchanged.

Execution Levels

Long Plan

• Reclaim: A test and hold/reclaim of 6875 sets up a move to 6881, 6884, 6888, 6894, and 6900. Use extreme caution near 6900, as positive GEX often acts as a ceiling.
• Continuation: A clean break through 6900 sets up 6910 and 6920. Through 6920 targets 6928, 6932, 6935, and 6942.
• Dip Buy: Watching the 6852–6856 zone for a bounce toward 6862 and 6868. Further down, a hold of 6826 sets up a move back to 6837 and 6844.

Short Plan

• Breakdown: A clean break below 6875 targets 6868, 6862, 6856, and 6852.
• Flush: A loss of 6844 opens the door for a deeper flush toward 6837 and 6826.
• Short Pops: We are looking to fade pops at 6900 down to 6894 and 6888. (Use the long levels above for your specific profit targets).
