NQ Range (08-16-23)

2977
Since early June the NAZ bounced off 15000 and stayed in the Blu Box. On the Edge now and expect a U-Turn with the Fed Minutes (no fed-no rally). NAZ will be Propped near Danger Zone bottom, 15076-14900.
Note
15110 Long Call Scalp, NAZ needs to get above 145 for take off. Sitting on 125 or yesterday Top 1st 30M. On Long Stop at 15105
snapshot
Note
O/N is playing games near 15110. May see drop/pop from zone, leave your stop where it is or widen it if you can. next move will be decent but may shoot lower 1st (below 105).
Note
80 is FA zone so it may pop from there. Stop it at 105, Can reload on 15080 Hold.
Note
15080 will target 15180, needs to pass 15145. Game played out and Drop/Pop set up is most likely in play for retest higher.
snapshot
Note
Looking for a Hook Long on IDS20 Lower Indicator, if so stay Long.
Note
This looks more like a MOP Up prior to a lift than a strong Drop. Never know so uses a Stop. Tough Shake out if so.
Note
Just needs to pop out of the Diablo
snapshot
Note
Long above 15100
snapshot
Note
range is 15020 to 15170
Note
NAZ may stay inside 1st hour range until Fed Minutes
Note
Mid Range 15060 - 15144 is NTZ No Trade Zone
Note
Diablo pop above 15005
snapshot
Note
15013-50 is range
snapshot
Note
Under 15040 is Short or take profit on Long
Note
Hold here target 170
Note
The Forecast is through Friday close and the NAZ just hit the lower target. I would expect sideways to up tomorrow with a Lift on Friday. The rejection today at mid 1st 30M range set up the drop and look for NAZ to retest 15050.
Note
NAZ is rotating around the TL and will move above in O/N.
snapshot
Note
NAZ did lift away from TL and may play inside today (circle), with lift tomorrow.
snapshot
Note
14985 zone stall may drop back to retest 14945
Note
4HR larger view, 14800-14900 should hold if hit and create a bounce to 15250 (mid Blue Zone). Current range of 15700 and 14900 is a well established channel. A break through the bottom would be a significant drop and that will just be too real so expect the U-Turn to show up. Most likely in the O/N tonight or during the Dead Zone on low volume Friday and at Lunch time. Usually happens in an off session or low volume period.
snapshot
Note
Open Range, Yellow Box
snapshot
Note
1509 HIT and may see pull back to 14961 KL, near Open or during 1st 15M. O/N pushing final Rig Pop prior to Pump and Dump. Open Dump may get bought by the FOMO/BTD's so look Long just in case.
snapshot
Note
14960-40 is Likely Retested at Open or during 1st 30M.
Note
The Pump and Dump did play out, a hold above low may bounce today and not tomorrow. Starting to look like a lower range MOP Up.
Note
14860 is most negative Ticks or delta so it may bounce.
Note
Long Scalp Developing at 14873 to 14901 Target
Note
The Selling activity is mostly mild and slow. This may be setting up a decent Long Play and this is how it starts.
Note
14901 Hit, 923 961 are next
Note
14873 Long was an Edge KL Opposite Direction Trade, these usually run for awhile.
Note
Above 873 NAZ should head higher
Note
Double Bottom or Drop at 14850
Note
14868-73 looks to be Long Zone
Note
Very Strange PA past 2 days, this is setting up a Long Most Likely as the Drop is slow and seems to be struggling to get lower. Almost untradable until a break out.
Note
NAZ is 20 points away from being Flat, Ticks look good and the Goals may be a Flat day or sideways for the Lift tomorrow.
Note
14961 Rejection is a Strong Short, may try a few times
Note
14940 Break will try 60
Note
NAZ Flat and Ticks are positive, here come the FOMO's
Note
14961 Break and U Turn may happen TODAY
Note
14907 Bounce is last play on U Turn.
Note
Lower target hit, U Turn to 14940 from 14830
Note
Wait for 830
Note
Needs to pass 811
Note
Needs to pass 92
Note
O/N Rig Job To follow.
Note
14740 is a huge Failed Auction Zone and that should be hit and bounce should follow for Friday Rally.
Note
No pass at 14960 set up the drop, same as do prior (mid 1st 30M). Orange is FA Zone.
snapshot
Note
NAZ hit FA Zone at 14740 and bounce near 14800. Only Target below are a FA Zone at 14650, TLX at 14416 and a Fib Level. Look for 14720 to provide a rotation zone around prior to next move. No Fed No Rally, No O/N Prop No Rally, NAZ just is not getting help from usual characters.
snapshot
Note
IDS20 Users, Layer 3 has been turning zone for Short Scalps or Long take profits.
snapshot
Note
10YN Yield is dropping so we may see a bounce as they can play off the idea to that should it hold.
Note
14640 should try 14700-20
Note
10YN Yield is still dropping, may set up bounce into Open.
Note
14720 Was Good Entry for a Long and the drop from was the typical Clean Out, usually 50 points and this one was more since bias is negative. Should swing far above GE at a pass.
Note
Bottom Target Hit
snapshot
Note
Bullish Divergence on IDS20
Note
14665 - 14630 is NTZ if you are not in, at Open and most likely area of Longs being positioned. We will see at 1st move at Open
Note
snapshot
Note
640 to 710 is 1st move
Note
IDS20, Since O/N Start NAZ can not pass RED MA. Watch PA at MA
snapshot
Note
LONG may be spring loaded here, after any hold.
Note
Long above 14632
Note
The PA is as Whippy as I have ever seen, push/pull on steroids.
Note
14660 is Strong Long or Strong Short depending on reaction.
Note
NAZ out of NTZ with rejection at mid 1st30M, look for retry
snapshot
Note
Long above 50, NAZ through Mid O/R
Note
Sneak Rally it is Friday. Curve ball
Note
Rigged, O/N Set up the Drop/Pop. U Turn Friday may play out.
Note
Today may turn into a Scale in Long Day. Will just keep climbing with tiny PB's
Note
Air pocket at 710, needs to hold. Red Bars on IDS20 are the Long Adds and stops trail up.
snapshot
Note
Air pocket did po, for now, Stay Long above 14660, test for next bounce or air balloon lift into Dead Zone.
Note
Last retest was normal and Stop Clean out which may suggest the direction is higher.
Note
14698 retest would be next and prior to push higher (should NAZ stall out)
Note
Back at Good Entry 720 Long, should move much higher as movement below was accumulation for the ride. If not, grab some more and go back up Monday
Note
Yellow is Resistance and Whit are Support, use as targets.
snapshot
Note
Next drop test near 14700-20 will tell the next move
Note
I am flat at 14135, not feeling it.
Note
14735
Note
14730 No pass may be a Short
Note
133 Bing, KL to watch for balance
snapshot
Note
730 Short to KL 670 and back up, Whippy
snapshot
Note
Careful on the Short side during the Friday Close. This is a prime spot for rigging as many have left for the week. Similar to O/N Rig or Holiday Rig Days. They may jack it up some.
Trade closed manually
14900 may the target, should the Rig be on. Closing this post, have a great weekend.
Note
Just noticed that NAZ in only inside O/N Range, this may come back dome. Can go either way.
Note
14780 and under is a Short, KL 761 is Confirm Under. Target KL 733 or 670. Above 760 just stay Long.
Note
Should be it unless they try 14900
snapshot
Note
100% Garbage, Old Tricks may come back with O/N Rig Job into Monday.
Note
No new public Post's this week. Mentioned the 14720 Good Entry Long with lower price action as MOP up. Middle of O/N Prop Job, BTD/FOMO bait for the Open and you get you typical Monday Long Play. Need to see if Open Drive holds on any lower retest. Day range may be in the 14700-900 range.
Note
Target hit on Long Call. Under 14985 is Short, Dead Cat Bounce of Tesla is the lift. Back to 14920 for retest in O/N or EOD.
Note
14985 PB to 14962 and d Long Call (for private group). Under 15068 is Short PB for 50 points.
Note
KL's, NAZ will try to get through Lower edge of Danger Zone. Back in Long Term Channel, Circle is upper Resistance.
snapshot
Note
IDS20 KL's
snapshot
Note
15068 got pushed above, play pull back: 15128-15091 is range for sideways and stall drop, 15050 is lower support and drop test. I have Open Range at 15090-050. NAZ is testing Top 1st30M of prior day 15128. I do not see all comments as I have a few followers blocked (why I went Private), just trying to help the non Private Follower's. Anyway, you have to make calls prior to the move and not after. Many times these calls are on or off and sometimes early (late would be the NOISE, which does no good). The O/N to Regular Session transition and Open Range/Drive will be very important today and is whey I am posting the call/plays. Good Luck and watch the Head Fakes.
Note
I count 17 Comments but show 37 listed in TV management panel. 20 are from 1 source, funny. Time to focus as we get near the Open, push/pull is the clue with any downward PA, other than that the Pump up may travel half/all way back up the Danger Zone.
Note
Head Fake and O/N Pump Dump, what I was afraid off
Note
14960 Long
Note
NAZ should hit and pass Diablo
snapshot
Note
Looks like a decent MOP Up near 14960, should pop. use a Stop 14915 is low target.
Note
Private Post, Near lower Target.
NQ Range (08-22-23)
Note
15045 Next
Note
NOISE
Note
O/N Rig will follow so Hold your LONG
Note
14960 Is Launch Zone
Note
O/N dependable Rig, Long from 14960 Hit 1st target and will try 15045 Next. Rigged and setting up another Pump/Dump or bait for the BTD/FOMO's.
Note
Noise Kills. NAZ has moves either way, both are correct.
Note
OK, watch the Pump/Dump near the close of O/N (Overnight) or in Open Range. 960 Long launched out to Targets in O/N. At Open, expect the BTD/FOMO's to bite, on stall look Short. Block any Noise out and just Trade. Good Luck today.
snapshot
Note
4HR Update. Calls need to be prior to the moves, not sure which way NAZ will move at Open (but it will move).
snapshot
Note
Private Session for 8/23
snapshot
Note
Noise
Note
Short under 15255, NAZ at 235 now. Use a stop and this is serious risk. Target 175 and 130. NAZ moves in 100 point blocks. Needs to get under 220 1st.
Note
Needs to pass 15200, and I will just laugh is this is a Long Trap.
Note
Hit 195 and bounced, may be POP, needs to stay under 218
Note
Add to Short under 218 or lower stop and add
Note
Anyway may see drop now and lift in Overnight or lift now and drop in O/N
Note
Today was a tough one, I forecasted the drop after a pop. No pop and all drop. Tomorrow NAZ will bounce back.
