S&P 500 | Long Bias | Bullish Breakout & News-Driven Flow | (May 12, 2025)

1️⃣ Short Insight Summary:
The S&P 500 Futures reacted strongly to unexpected news, breaking out of a consolidation zone. This created a surprise rally that liquidated many short positions, opening the door for bullish continuation.

2️⃣ Trade Parameters:
Bias: Long
Entry: After breakout from triangle pattern on 30min chart
Stop Loss: Below breakout structure / recent local low (adjust to personal risk)
TP1: Recent highs before the sell zone
TP2: Extended bullish target based on upward momentum
Partial Exits: Near any previous resistance or psychological round numbers

3️⃣ Key Notes:
✅ The price action surged right after a bullish news update involving China, which the market hadn’t priced in—creating a sharp reaction.
✅ On the 5min and 30min charts, bullish structure is clearly forming.
✅ On the 4H and Daily charts, money flow is shifting from outflows to consistent inflows, signaling strength behind the move.
❌ This doesn’t mean it’s time to short—even if we're entering a previous sell zone, it’s more of a chance to secure partial profits rather than fight the trend.

4️⃣ Optional Follow-up Note:
This setup will be monitored closely. Will update if conditions shift or structure breaks down.
