SPX Liquidation Heatmap — S&P 500 Stop-Loss Clusters

Asset: S&P 500 IndexCategory: Stock IndexPrecision: Dynamic ATR Decay

SPX reflects a basket of constituents rather than one company. Ampeld models stop concentration around its observed volatility and daily or weekly range structure.

Reading SPX: Use the SPX bands to see whether your stop overlaps a widely watched range level. Do not read a dense band as a directional signal.

The engine treats SPX the same way it treats every instrument: stop-loss concentration bands from volatility and position decay, order blocks and fair value gaps from candle structure, and daily and weekly levels. What differs between instruments is the volatility and the session rhythm, which is what the numbers above reflect.

Size a position for your stop: once you know where your SPX stop goes, the free SPX position size calculator turns account size, risk and stop distance into index units, margin and risk/reward. It draws the same modelled stop concentration on its chart as a reference for checking your stop, runs in your browser and needs no account.

Do EMA, MACD, RSI and Stochastic work on SPX?

Every signal the four most-used indicators gave on the S&P 500 Index chart, checked against what price did next. A signal is a win (W) if price moved 1 ATR its way before 1 ATR against, within 48 bars. Across our 41 markets we checked 21,566 hourly signals: each of these indicators wins 49–51% of the time. Here is how they have done on SPX.

A run tells you what just happened, not what comes next: across 15,192 signals on 41 markets, after one to five losses in a row the next signal won 41–56% of the time — no better than any other. Past signals, not a forecast.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions (SPX FAQ)

How do you read the S&P 500 (SPX) liquidation heatmap?

High-density colour clusters mark where the model places retail stop-loss and margin-call concentration. On SPX right now, with price around 7,659.44, that band runs from 7,617.47 to 7,744.19. Read those as a reference for where other traders' stops may sit, not as targets — we measured our levels against a control: price reaches them no more often than a point the same distance away, and they do not predict which way price moves.

What is Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) for SPX?

Cumulative Volume Delta estimates the net buy versus sell pressure behind SPX from its price and volume. Divergences between price direction and modelled CVD can flag absorption and exhaustion, which is context rather than a signal.

Where should I put my stop when trading SPX?

Size the stop from SPX's own volatility first: in our tests, a stop's distance in ATR set how often it was hit, and an obvious swing low, round number or fair value gap was reached no more often than any other point the same distance away. The engine is currently tracking 9 unmitigated fair value gaps on SPX alongside the cluster bands, as context rather than as levels to trade.
