Warning Signs Keep Emerging

I’ve got more stock research to share, stuff you won’t see elsewhere. First, if you don’t know me here are a couple other things I’ve done on Reddit. Early October, I posted that QQQ would climb for two weeks, hit 637, then drop. People called me crazy. That’s exactly what happened. By Jan 28, with markets right back at all-time highs, I warned of a ceiling and incoming volatility. Again, ‘crazy.’ Again, it happened. Carvana (CVNA) was also a good one. At the start of the year. I said it’d get crushed citing several reasons why, buying aggressive March put spreads. Critics said I didn’t give it enough time for the trade to play out. Then Gotham City Research dropped a report saying basically what I’d said on Reddit. The stock tanked $100 in a day. Those paying attention made a bag. So now what… If you thought I was crazy before you’re definitely going to think I’m crazy now. I like to implement trading strategies originally invented by W.D. Gann. Most people probably don’t even know who that is, but for those who know, he is considered one of the most legendary traders of all time, even though many of the strategies seem crazy. I’m just putting that out there ahead of time. I don’t know why they work, I just know they often do work and I like to implement them as one tool to consider when forming a bigger picture. Today, I am combining Gann Square of 19 along with Gann angles using the using the S&P 500 ETF chart VOO… [https://ibb.co/PzPH6wys](https://ibb.co/PzPH6wys) The S&P 500 has followed a fairly steady path since the recovery began on April 7, 2025. Initially, prices surged at a sharp angle, but the trajectory has gradually flattened over time. The vertical lines on this chart mark the Gann Square of 19 dates. Gann’s Squaring of 19 is a strategy for identifying major market turning points by tracking price cycles from a significant price extremes, such as the April 7, 2025 low. By calculating squared numbers sequentially, starting with the Square of 4 (16 days) and progressing through milestones like the Square of 9 (81 days) up to the Square of 19 (361 days), we pinpoint specific dates where price and time tend to converge. These are just approximate dates. I generally give myself 2 buffer days around each one of these dates. The Square of 19 carries particular significance because 361 days approximates a complete 360-degree circle. This represents a full cycle completion where trends often reverse direction or gained significant momentum. The question becomes whether this inflection point marks a turn higher or lower. Gann angles help answer this. Keeping it straightforward, we start by identifying a meaningful high or low. Since we’ve already established April 7 as our reference low, we draw a 45-degree trendline upward from that point. In a strong uptrend, prices remain above this 45-degree line. Currently, that line is being tested. If the S&P 500 breaks below it, Gann principles suggest the bullish trend is failing. When connecting all the evidence I have reviewed over recent weeks, especially the diverging sectors, which I didn’t post in full detail here, I believe there’s a solid chance we’re entering a period of market weakness where further pullback is likely. Based on this analysis, we could see a bounce sometime between February 23 and 27, but this would likely function as a bull trap before additional selling resumes.
