NQ SHORT - Bearish Momentum - Mild Recession in PlayCME_MINI:NQ1! CME_MINI:ES1! Key Notes: Daily and Below, follow the 200 EMA and positive or negative MACD Weekly and Above, follow the 50 EMA and positive or negative MACD. Don't overcomplicate it with 1000 technicals. NQ moves between a 500 pt price block (average in a week, but can move more as we saw last week). ES moves between a 100 pt price block (average). NKD (Japanese) moves between a 1000 pt price block (average). Take these levels as significant levels for longs/shorts. HIT me up with any questions for more methodology or anything. Hard to fit everything in a 20 minute video.

ES HEADING INTO NFPWe are fast approaching the previous NFP data point (whilst NQ sits below its previous NFP already). As I said on the NFP analysis the majority are anticipating a melt up on NFP. Which does make sense to squeeze the shorts this week but I still see us trading lower to atleast take the close proximity liquidity at the low and even trade below the previous NFP data point. The CLM level is critical. This is a level I have developed after 8 years in this game. I have a system around them which over a large number of trades is at the moment running at 63% win rate ! So for now I'm certainly utilising those levels, here I have just marked in 1 of several. Stay safe on NFP. Namaste!

Yes going lower it's about 12 midnight.... I misstated it in the video.. I think the Market's going lower even though it's at a support level because the market had already had a high and it's a number of weeks later and the market could not retest the high and now the market looks like it's going to break lower and the reward is about 100 points maybe more. I don't quite have a classic 2 bar reversal and... so I am jumping the gun a lit.bability that the market will trade lower. if it works it's not really an eloquent trade and if it goes higher and stops me out that's not eloquent either but you generally won't go broke with small stops as long as you can make decent Returns on the trades that you do take. I talked about time as a consideration for taking a trade... I started out my training like that many years ago.... but I found that it was a futile and frustrating way to look at the market and I have almost completely stopped trying to factor in time. if you draw oblique lines on a chart that's associated with time,,,, if you draw a horizontal support resistance line that has nothing. to do with time...which is a good thing for me. an oscillator by definition deals with time.... and my interpretation of an oscillator is unreliable because of that so I never used them. but it's okay to look at a chart that fails to make new highs over a substantial. Of time and that's what I tried doing here.

ES Short TargetI'm expecting a bearish reaction to NFP tomorrow, but we'll see. Not gonna bother trying to predict that, but I will react to it. ES held around 5500 today and has demand from ~5486-5471. If we end up selling off below 5471 tomorrow, 5440 is the first target after that and eventually down to the trendline below. That may be around 5350 depending on when it hits. We may get a bounce around 5440, which could lead to a retest of the demand near 5486, it should flip to supply if broken below. If we hold 5500 and reclaim the trendline above, I'd be looking for longs on a retest. VX will be an important thing to monitor as well.

SPX ES Futures - Clearer view for Wave 4?Greetings! SPX is much clearer and more constructive than NASDAQ in my opinion. Keeping this short and sweet. Current bias is this drawdown is exactly what everyone expected and wanted. Currently leaning bullish for the time being while being hedged in the event NFP tomorrow causes a major market downturn. KEY level is below 5360, but I believe the more important levels are on that 38.2% and 50% internal retracement for the wave 4 at 5475 and 5420 (roughly). NFP tomorrow, I expect we will probably see a push down initially followed by a rebound. Market was very choppy today (see my NASDAQ update for more details on that), but I think we're going to find a resolution soon where we can get more directional trades. Happy hunting!

My Full ES/SPX Plan for Tmmr Sept. 6thPlan for Friday: **Supports:** 5512, 5502, 5494 (major), 5482 (major), 5476, 5474 (major), 5462, 5455 (major), 5450, 5445 (major), 5438 (major), 5428, 5423, 5414 (major). **Levels to Bid:** - I am still holding my 10% long runner from the **5493** knife carch idea that played out this afternoon. I have added long exposure around **5513**, risking 25% of today’s profits. - We are currently in a new chop range between **5493 and 5554**, with **5519** acting as a key middle point. This has been tested 14 times since yesterday, so it’s no longer fresh but still worth watching for failed breakdowns as always. - **5494** is next major support below, though it’s risky to buy directly after today’s test, especially with the NFP report coming tomorrow morning. Ideally, I'd like to see it flush and recover, perhaps testing **5482** or **5474** before reclaiming for a safer entry. - Below **5492**, I consider this "knife catch mode," meaning supports will likely fail, so I’d be careful with longs, snd treat with smaller size than normal . However, **5455** and **5438** are key levels to watch for buy reactions if price starts flushing down aggressively. **Resistances:** 5519 (major), 5524, 5528-30 (major), 5537, 5543, 5554 (major), 5560, 5566, 5574, 5577, 5582-86 (major), 5593, 5598, 5605 (major). - With NFP tomorrow, we could see a violent rally, and I am not interested in shorting strength in ES. For those looking to short, **5582-86** is a logical spot, where we broke down earlier this week and have yet to backtest. **Buyers Case Tomorrow:** - Currently, ES has an active failed breakdown present. The key is for **5492** to hold, allowing buyers to defend this level and potentially reclaim **5519**. - The path forward for buyers would then be targeting **5528-30**, **5554**, and eventually **5582-86** for a dip and push toward **5630**. **Sellers Case Tomorrow:** - Begins with the failure of **5493**. As i mentioned often though, breakdown trades below this a support are tricky, advanced setups, as most breakdowns trap (80% fail), and these are low-win-rate, high-risk/reward trades. So keep that in mind. Properly reading volume is the key to these type of trades. - Generally, I’d want to see 5493 tested/one more failed breakdown of the zone (ideally down to 5483 that recovers). After this, I’d consider short perhaps 5486. Level to level profit takes, as always, but we likely get down to 5455. In general, We have gone nowhere for two days. My general lean is that 5493 and 5519 remain critical levels. As long as we can keep defending 5493, ES is still in relief bounce/squeeze mode. This would work us up the levels to 5528-30, 5554, then on to 5582-86. If 5492 fails, bulls dropped the ball on this and we need to take another leg down.
