Nq100

NQ1!, Market is in the Breakout ModeA trend up day across the board. A break of the balance is what creates such market conditions. Traditional indicators only confuse the traders and trap them on the wrong side. The indicators help to see a potential reverse but they don't provide a signal. Only price action and rejections of certain levels are the truth tellers. The Algos are trend following Robo-traders. Usually, they don't turn around during day sessions. You can think about amount of money involved and why this is so difficult. If you study sharp reverses during day sessions you can see that they are news driven, when the short term sentiment is reversed. Without a power trigger such reversal is a low probability event. The market is at a resistance level. We may see a correction during the overnight session. Why it is possible: a different session, different agendas, short term overbought condition. However, this is not going to change the sentiment unless we see a strong rejection and break of the existing market structure. Stay nimble. 8/8/2019

NQ1!, Potential Bounce is ComingOn Friday the market continued to drift down and eventually found a short term floor. Several opportunities on short and long side were available. The current structure and positive divergences are increasing the odds of a bounce. One need to be on a lookout to play it. I believe that both short and long opportunities would be available. I'm not in a business to predict whether we see more downside or a reversal to previous highs. The market provides new information every minute and shows its hand. The current short term conditions are in favor of the upside . A return to Friday's low would be a warning sign. However, if the positive divergences stay intact it would make a potential breakdown less sustainable. On Friday's the market formed an intraday balance and we need to watch its resolution. Stay nimble and consider risk/reward. 08/04/2019

NAS-100 Likely to Overextend to 8455 Then Down to 7311While many people have suggested bearish outlooks for the longest time - and well before in this case, the NAS100 was 7800 - many of the indices have only continued to make an unseemly run. In this instance, I bet on the fact that many of the richest "investors" as gross as it sounds, bet on failing economic data to force rate cuts to squeeze the market higher - this theory turned out to be correct. Donald Trump has continued to force trade uncertainty as a prime reason for the Federal Reserve to contemplate and likely induce rate cuts in the United States. The market has already priced in several rate cuts in Q4 2019 and the Federal Reserve is unlikely to disappoint: beginning next week. As long as the Trump administration at-least pumps out the fact that "talks are continuing" with China (even if they go no where), that will be enough for it to have a non-factor in the overall markets. Personally, I am targeting a peak of 8455 for the NAS100 before September likely pushed by momentum from earnings (which have been a pleasant surprise), a continued dovish Fed (outlook), half decent GDP and economic data, and the likely rate cut next week. In the longer-term I see a correction beginning sometime in Q4 2019. From there, a rebound or further downside will depend on the current interest rates around the world, the dovishness or lack of from Feds around the world, and whether key economic data stabilizes, rises, or continues to show a bleak outlook. The most important time range for long-term outlook determination will be December Q4 (2019) into January Q1 (2020). -- Note: While GDP remained somewhat healthy in the US at 2.1%, this was pushed by very strong consumer habits and spending. It is important to note that consumer spending is typically the last to fall and last to recover when economic data turns sour. Therefore, it is important to take this quarters GDP data in the USA with a grain of salt; however, on surface, it is strong enough to push the market higher. -- - zSplit

NQ1!, From +2% to -1%. Algos Work Both WaysAn unusual day on the market. A large range swings offered multiple opportunities. One does not need to catch all of them in order to be profitable. The overnight session was trending up and provided a hint that the buyers are active taking advantage of the oversold condition. The day session started from a strong momentum to upside slicing through multiple resistance levels. For market profile aficionados the move happened from overnight point of control to previous day point of control practically without stopping. This is not a normal action. Lack of liquidity and Algos trend following strategy create such conditions. The market become overbought pretty fast. Eventually, the market formed a balance at the top and lost it creating a short opportunity. Bad structure created from a parabolic move could not sustain a selling pressure and that led to a new low of the day. The market remains neutral. This is an inside day. Not much to infer where it would go next. I anticipate it would continue to consolidate within a large balance. In case of the breakdown and exploring new lows watch for positive divergence. It usually restrict the move downside and traps the shorts. Watch for small balances formed and their breakouts. That creates a short term bias and small trend that could grow. Gauging momentum is helpful. Stay nimble. 08/01/2019

NQ1!, Fat Trimming Action, Neutral BiasBreak of the channel in pre-market set the morning session bias. Feels like a dejavu. If you look left you see a similar pattern in play. The market is not conducive to a big move. This week is full of events and that what makes that action. The bias remains neutral. The price is in the middle of Bollinger Bands. If we see some selling pressure the lower band could be a reasonable target. From risk/reward perspective the downside is more rewarding, however, the market may decide differently. Follow the price action and no need to predict. 07/29/2019

NQ1!, Mixed Earnings, Market Remains NeutralYesterday's bullish sentiment was invalidated ahead of the mega tech earnings. Even in the pre-market the small channel seen on the chart got broken and that accelerated a downside move. The price was channeled down into the previous balance. Responsive buyers are active around July's point of control. Notice how well the Bollinger Bands worked. A strong buying has occurred after the bell. However, the price remains inside the previous balance and only retested its edge. It is not clear whether we deal with a false breakout or not. The market needs to provide more data. Mixed earnings results may lead to a choppy action before the dust settles especially in the middle of the bands. 07/25/2019

NQ1!, Market is in the Breakout ModeThe 7940, a monthly point of control, rejection right from the getgo set the tone for today's day session. A trending up price action and momentum broke the recent balance to upside. Market is in uncharted territory making new highs. This is happened ahead of the big techs earnings and GDP report later this week. What we need to see that this breakout sticks . Shorting is risky at this point unless the news driven moves start invalidating the breakout. Usually, the strong bullish sentiment would continue to stay for several days and aggressive buying would occur at every minor pullback. Stay nimble. 07/24/2019

NQ1!, Neutral-Bullish Bias Remains IntactRight off the day session opening the market offered a short opportunity. Failure to take out the over-night high attracted the sellers. Plus this is all about risk/reward. The upside was questionable. The smaller timeframes were flashing overbought conditions. As you can see from the chart the sellers brought the price to the dotted line. The oversold condition, inflection point and positive divergence seen on smaller timeframe offer a long opportunity. During the afternoon session a China related news created a momentum and pushed the pice even beyond anticipated target. The price moved almost to the balance top. That's why the bias is Neutral-Bullish. As I mentioned in the previous post the swings are within a large balance. If the buyers break the balance to upside the market will be trending to new highs. Stay nimble. 07/23/2019

NQ1!, Short term ReversalResponsive buyers were active the entire session. Bottom of the balance, oversold condition and a false breakdown created a buyers revenge trade. This is one of the potential scenarios I outlined in my previous post. The market is in the balanced state. Until the balance is resolved we can see swings back and forth that mean nothing. The challenge is to detect, and this is could be done on the lower timeframes, what side takes a turn and ride with it. We may see a completely opposite move tomorrow. 07/22/2019

NQ1!, Price is at important support level.Friday's day session offered a short opportunity right from the opening. A false breakout in pre-market sealed the deal for the sellers. The prices trended lower the whole day and offered a long opportunity off the 7900 level. One need to realize why Friday's are different: - the last day of trading before the weekend - options expiration. From the chart you can see that the price traveled from the top of the balance to the very bottom. It is exhausted, and the RSI is close to oversold. The downside continuation is possible, like anything when it comes to the market, but keep in mind that shorting at this point is riskier. It is better to see a bounce and then attempt to rip it. The level where the price is parked before the weekend is not only the bottom of the balance, this is also a month of July point of control. Also keep in mind that double bottom has high odds to attract the buyers in attempt to turn around. If you are a day trader you can take advantage of that level and attempt long. If your mind is set for shorting then it is better to asses the situation first. Possible scenarios: 1. A pause at the level, consolidation between 2 dotted lines above and below the main level which would serve as a pivot 2. A move lower with a sharp rejection suggesting a false breakdown. Bulls revenge comes after that. 3. A strong move down with high volume without a pause targeting to retest July's low and June's point of control We are in the midst of the earnings season and the mega techs will be reporting later this month. Stay nimble and objective. The price action is king. Your role is to see which scenario is unfolding and play the odds. 07/20/2019
