US500: Fading the Range Top - Levels are Clear

Market Snapshot & Setup

US500 continues its sideways grind. Currently at 6042.33, showing a slight dip of -0.13% on the day. The day range, 6030.84 to 6053.83, perfectly illustrates this lack of conviction. My view remains neutral on the broader trend, but within this range, opportunities exist.

The Play

I'm looking to fade a move towards the top of this current range. My entry is set at 6048. We're seeing resistance at 6053.83, and a push into that area without strong conviction points to a potential reversal back down within the established channel. Levels are clear for this setup.

Risk Management

Taking this trade with a tight stop loss at 6076. This keeps risk contained if the market breaks above key resistance at 6053.83 and targets 6100. My take profit is set at 6007, targeting a retest of the 6000 support area, which has held firm previously. It's a clean setup, but macro uncertainty still leaves room for volatility, so sticking to the plan is key.
