US500: Fading Resistance for an Intraday Short

Market Snapshot

US500 is currently sitting at 6047.66. We're in a sideways trend, but the day's high at 6051.17 acts as clear resistance. The 24h change is slightly negative (-0.04%), indicating a lack of strong upside momentum. Levels are clear for a quick move.

Trade Setup

I'm looking at a short opportunity here. We've tapped that 6051.17 resistance multiple times within the daily range (6044.14 — 6051.17) and struggling to push higher. The technical read suggests a rejection is likely. Taking this trade.

Execution

Direction: Short
Entry: 6049
Stop Loss: 6053 (just above the day's high)
Take Profit: 6038 (targeting a retest of the lower support, potentially 6044.14 initially, then 6038)
