US100 - 1H - Short Setup to $21,000 (Technical Analysis)The CAPITALCOM:US100 bounced from the upper side of it's wedge where it marked it's new ATH. On the way up we opened two gaps (red in the chart) which are still left to get closed. We also see a RSI divergence which implies we've seen the top for now and are heading lower (at least for the time being). Current targets would be the support at $21,184, then the trendline of the current wedge at around $21,000 and a bit lower the bigger support zone at around $20,600. If we break above $21,600 this short setup is denied. Target Zones $21,184 (Gap Close) $21,000 (Trendline) $20,600 (Bigger Support Zone)

USNAS100 / New ATH Historical Price, and Still To 21590Technical Analysis The price has successfully reached a historic all-time high (ATH) at 21500 and continues to gain momentum, targeting the next resistance at 21,590, and then it's possible to trade with a bearish trend after 21590. So now any stability above 21485 will get the price toward 21590, and then should break the resistance zone to get 21900, Otherwise, stability below 21450 by closing the 4h candle under it, means will drop to get 21290 and 21220 Key Levels: Pivot Point: 21480 Resistance Levels: 21590, 21670, 21800 Support Levels: 21290, 21150, 20990 previous idea:

[Education] Your Results Have Nothing To Do With StrategiesHave you ever wondered why some trades feel different than others? You're following the same strategy, looking at the same patterns, but something just feels... off. Last week, I received a message from a trader who was convinced that his strategy wasn't working. He had back-tested it extensively with 300 data points, showing a 45% win rate with a 1:2 risk-reward ratio. Statistically, he should have been profitable. Yet after three months of live trading, his account was down 28%. What he and what most traders didn’t realize and never consider is that his problem wasn't his strategy. It was something far more dangerous. The Hidden Force Destroying Your Trading Account Think about your last losing trade. Be honest with yourself: - Did you move your stop loss because you "felt" the market would reverse? - Did you enter early because you were afraid of missing the move? - Did you close a winning trade too soon because you couldn't handle seeing profits disappear? If you answered yes to any of these, congratulations - you've just discovered why most traders fail, and it has nothing to do with your strategy. The Expensive Truth About Trading Psychology When I first started trading, I lost over $20,000. It’s not because my analysis was wrong. I just couldn't control my emotions. Here's what would happen. I'd spot a perfect setup according to my plan. I’ll enter the trade. I’d sit right in front of my computer and watch every tick of price movement. I panic when the trade went against me which resulted in me to either cut winners short or let losers run. Sound familiar? You might be making these same mistakes without even realizing it. Why Your Brain Is Working Against You Here's what nobody tells you about trading. Your brain is literally wired to make you fail. When you see your account going into drawdown: - Your heart rate increases - Stress hormones flood your body - Your prefrontal cortex (logical thinking) shuts down - Your amygdala (emotional center) takes over This is the same response your ancestors had when facing a lion. Great for survival, terrible for trading. The Four Emotional Traps Every Trader Falls Into 1. Fear of Loss - Moving stop losses - Cutting winners short - Not taking valid setups 2. Fear of Missing Out (FOMO) - Entering without confirmation - Chasing price - Taking sub-par setups 3. Revenge Trading - Doubling down after losses - Trading bigger size to "make it back" - Taking trades outside your plan 4. Overconfidence - Increasing position size after wins - Ignoring risk management - Breaking rules because "you feel it" All these results in reduced win rate and smaller profits due to increased losses from poor entries, potentially wiping out weeks or months of profits. In serious cases, these may lead to blown accounts and destroyed confidence. The Math Behind Emotional Trading Let's say you have a strategy with: - 40% win rate - 1:2 risk-reward ratio - 1% risk per trade Mathematically, this strategy should make money. But emotions change everything: Without Emotions: - Winners: 40 trades × 2R = +80R - Losers: 60 trades × -1R = -60R - Net Result: +20R With Emotions: - Cut winners early: 40 trades × 1R = +40R - Let losers run: 60 trades × -1.5R = -90R - Net Result: -50R Same strategy, completely different results. Signs You're Trading Emotionally Even if you don’t realize it, there are signs that you’re trading emotionally. You need to journal down and be conscious about it. 1. Before the Trade - Feeling the pressure to trade - Unable to wait for perfect setups - Entering without proper analysis and confirmation 2. During the Trade - Constantly checking your P&L - Feeling anxiety about open positions - Unable to follow your trade plan and trade management 3. After the Trade - Feeling euphoric after wins - Feeling depressed after losses - Unable to stop thinking about trading The Solution: Building Your Trading Psychology Here's the framework I used to transform from an emotional wreck to a consistent trader: 1. Preparation Phase - Write down exact entry, stop loss, target, and your emotional state (Check out my FREE trading journal) - Calculate position size before entering - Take screenshots of your analysis - Review your rules checklist 2. Execution Phase - Set and forget your orders (if applicable) - No watching charts if not necessary - No checking P&L - No moving stop losses (unless it fits your trade management) 3. Review Phase - Journal every trade - Rate your emotional state - Track rule violations - Learn from mistakes Real Results From Managing Emotions My First Month Trading: - Started with $10,000 - Took 45 trades - Broke every rule in my plan - Ended down 40% After Implementing Emotional Control: - Managing $200,000 funded account - Taking 15-20 trades per month - Following rules strictly - Consistent 3-5% monthly returns By the way, I've passed another funded challenge this week using the lessons implemented here! Taking Action: Your First Steps 1. Start a Trading Journal - Record your emotions before each trade - Note any rules you break - Track the cost of emotional decisions 2. Create a Pre-Trade Checklist - Entry criteria - Risk management rules - Position sizing calculations - Market condition requirements 3. Build Better Habits - Trade smaller size while learning - Remove P&L display from charts - Set and forget your orders (If applicable) - Review trades only at set times The Path Forward Remember, everyone feels emotions while trading. The goal isn't to eliminate emotions. It's to prevent them from affecting your decisions. The market doesn't care how you feel. It doesn't care about your hopes, fears, or dreams. The only thing that matters is whether you can execute your strategy consistently, regardless of emotions. The choice is yours. Continue letting emotions control your trading, or learn to control your emotions.

NQ Futures Update: Warning Signs Flashinghe Nasdaq 100 futures (NQ) is exhibiting several concerning signs that suggest a potential downturn could be on the horizon. Traders should exercise caution and be prepared for a possible wave of selling pressure. Resistance Rejection: The NQ has recently encountered strong resistance. Multiple failed attempts to break above this key level could signal that sellers are gaining control. Breakdown Below Support: A break below the red box support level could trigger a further decline. This would likely be accompanied by an increase in selling volume and negative sentiment. Rising Volatility: An increase in implied volatility, as reflected in the VIX index, suggests growing uncertainty and fear in the market, which could precede a broader market sell-off. Potential Downside Targets If the bearish scenario unfolds, the NQ could potentially drop to the displayed support levels While the NQ is showing signs of weakness, it's important to remember that markets can be unpredictable. A sudden shift in sentiment or unexpected news could quickly change the outlook. Traders should closely monitor price action, manage risk effectively, and be prepared for volatility in the near term.

Why I Took a Short Position on the US100(high risk)Even though I typically avoid shorting indices, especially in the current macroeconomic environment characterized by a resilient labor market and increasing likelihood of a soft landing, my trading decisions are heavily rooted in technical analysis. While the broader economic context leans towards stability, the charts presented a setup that I found compelling enough to take the risk. The position, admittedly, is high-risk, with a significant probability of hitting my stop-loss. However, I believe that the potential reward justifies the calculated risk, given the structure on the chart. If the stop is triggered but the broader technical context remains unchanged, I am prepared to re-enter the position and risk an additional 2-3 stops. My approach relies on consistency and discipline, so as long as the technical indicators and levels I evaluate continue to align, I am comfortable with this risk. This trade is more of a strategic decision than a fundamental one. It’s driven by my confidence in the patterns and levels I see, not a bet against the underlying strength of the index or economy. It's a reminder that, sometimes, even in favorable macroeconomic conditions, the charts can tell a different story worth exploring.

1-hr NASDAQ 100: The Leading Tech Index Might Correct In 5 business days US100 jumped with more than 600 points. We use patterns like the Golden Cross, where a short term MA breaks above a longer term MA, to determine the strenght and the direction of the momentum. The classic buy signal, triggered by the Golden Cross, emerged last week and since then buyers in the NASDAQ generated fantastic profits! For the past few hours today however, we notice a possible slow down in the upward momentum. This is only normal, because many of these buyers are going to start selling, to take profit, after the rally. We use Fibonacci to establish where the price might correct to and we usually focus on the critical levels 38% Fib and 50% Fib. Tech stocks are hot, rates are dropping and on the long run it is very possible that the index will continue its upward march. On the short term however, its absolutely normal to see some pullbacks. We assume that buyers could secure better risk to reward on their trades, if they target a lower entry, possibly at 21 250, which aligns with the important 38% Fibonacci retracement. This also opens the room to short sellers, who wish to bet on a short term drop and take this level as a potential profit taking zone.
