NDX NQ Futures - Election Woes?Taking a quick look at NASDAQ - it's a bit premature but very possible we are in the beginning phase of the creation of a right shoulder in a head and shoulders formation. Again, premature and totally unconfirmed at this point, but I wanted to point it out at a minimum and get your eyes on it.
I discuss in the video how to measure this kind of formation, but if (big if) we break down in this election cycle, we should see a capitulation-style move going into EOY that could take us back to November 2023 lows. Down in the low 14000's which would be something nobody is keeping an eye on.
Getting above 19000 on NQ futures would be a big deal and would help build confidence that this is not a head and shoulders formation and we are in a decent recovery phase.
Don't overtrade - today in particular was pretty choppy with only a few good names out there from a day-trading perspective.
20240812 NQI anticipate little bit more to the upside into the w sibi CE level and reversal to the downside. The downside DOL is an equilibrium of the last dealing range and 15m +OB as dynamic support.

NASDAQ-100. A POTENTIAL SYMMETRY PERHAPS IS THE NEXT BIG THINGPolicymakers at the U.S. central bank on Wednesday held interest rates steady, although Fed Chair Jerome Powell gave investors some hope by signaling a September rate cut could be on the table.
A Day later stocks heavily sold off Thursday (again), with the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) tumbling nearly 500 points, as investors’ fears over a recession surfaced.
Some fresh data stoked fears over a possible recession and the notion that the Federal Reserve could be too late to start cutting interest rates. Initial jobless claims rose the most since August 2023. And the ISM manufacturing index, a barometer of factory activity in the U.S., came in at 46.8%, worse than expected and a signal of economic contraction.
After these releases, the 10-year Treasury yield dropped below 4% for the first time since February.
These weak data releases come a day after central bank policymakers chose to keep rates at the highest levels in two decades, when Fed Chair Jerome Powell gave investors some hope by signaling a September rate cut could be on the table.
Labor situations is on the radars also, as fresh unemployment data expected on Friday, August 2.
The Federal Reserve risks further weakening the US economy and tanking US stock markets.
As the unemployment rate has risen in recent months, it has fueled speculation that the strong labor market is cracking and pointing to potential trouble ahead, with full-time employment in the US declining by about 1.23 million jobs over the past 12 months, and part-time employment adding about 1.52 million jobs (May'24 data).
While much of the attention of financial analysts in June and July 2024 was focused on the Fed's rhetoric, inflation and manufacturing statistics, the US unemployment rate, which is recovering from its 55-year lows, is much greater thing.
In technical terms, June'24 will be the 4th month in a row, US unemployment rate is above its 26-week (6-month) simple moving average.
Historical backtest analysis of the entire history of data since the end of World War II indicates that the onset of a recession in the United States is just around the corner.
In any case, such labor market symptoms have always, in all cases without exception, signaled either an already occurring or an imminent US recession.
The main graph (Nasdaq-100 Futures cont. contract) indicates on a potential symmetry for further bearish development. with the nearest target roughly S14'000 mark (that is corresponding also to 5-years SMA).

NQ Short IdeaNQ finally broke below its major uptrend for 2023. This is one of the most important charts right now in my view. This trend break is everything. Despite a big recovery, NQ remains well below this trendline. It has not retested since it broke and it looks like bulls may wanna push it all the way back up for a retest.
I would fully expect a rejection here on the first try, probably a large one, but it could obviously be yet another dip buy for bulls if it does reject. Either way, if bulls can not reclaim this trend, the downside will continue. I think this short would be one of the best opportunities we've seen all year if it goes back for a retest and actually rejects.
NQ Trendline ResistanceNQ has an ascending trendline it has been respecting well since last Friday. It's trading almost right on the line again today. We'll see if it can finally break above, or if bears have some real fight left in them. I see this is as fairly critical heading into next week, today is looking like it may just chop out, but we'll see.
Today's analysis.I forgot that today is Friday and I haven't gone on vacation yet. Only today will be the last day I will post. I will be back on August 23 and will resume my work.
