SPY closed Monday at $686.10, +1.3% off the 5-touch floor at $675.78. The ceiling at $693.68 sits 18 points away — last tested 6 weeks ago. Compression trade until one side breaks.
Market Summary
Close: $686.10 Change: +1.3% (+$8.64) Open: $677.41 High: $686.30 Range: $8.89 Volume: 43% above average — energy, not conviction Candle: Strong close — opened near lows, closed near session high
The Detail
Monday's bounce came off the strongest nearby support on the chart. $675.78 has been tested 5 times through the entire pullback, and every touch held. The zone spans $671.73 to $679.83 — an 8-point cushion buyers have defended through every attempt to break it. On the other side, resistance at $693.68 hasn't been tapped in 6 weeks. That makes it fresh memory for algorithms but stale for most retail traders watching only the last few sessions. Monday's +1.3% move came on volume only 43% above average — buyers showed life, not conviction.
Key stat: 5 touches at $675.78 — strongest nearby support by touch count.
