NQ Range (01-27-25)Final week of the 1st month, so far not much has changed with intraday Price Action. The original Danger Zone TL (Orange) now has a lower long term TL that may be an indication that the Danger Zone is dropping (NAZ may start to experience lower lows and start a decline). Short below 22,200 and Long above. 19,200 is Strong Long Zone, we did retest U Turn Zone #1 (21,000) and may retest #2 (20,000). For now, Long in the O/N, fade the Open Range and Long in Dead Zone or near the Close. Should this pattern change, it would be a minor miracle. Go Fed & Washington Street (Wall Street is 2nd Banana), the Fed Is back this week.

NQ Range (01-21-25)Basically we are 2 weeks into 2025 and 2 weeks until month end. The games have not changed and are still working, just fine. The battle continues to be between the Overnight (O/N) and Regular Session price action. O/N moves up and Reg Session is sideways to lower (struggling lower). Yellow arrow is 12/18 and a Reg Session route. This was after 11 trading days with O/N PA used to lift, then the 2 hour Reg Session drop erased the lift. Yellow circle is drop in Reg Session (struggling lower). This U Turns into the channel up of TLX 758 (all O/N PA). I just feel we will see another 12/18 move around the corner. The 18th was 1,000 point drop (Do I hear, 1,500, 2,000, 2,500...). YTD Open is 21,250, you can see we are rotating around, TLX's above and below, White Arrow is breakout long (needs to pass TLX) and Yellow is Short. 21,200 & 20,200 are 2 U Turn Zones, we just saw 21,200 do exactly that. Back under will try lower zone and maybe that is the 1,000 point 1-2 move that is on its ways mostly likely in a Reg Session.

Today analysis for Nasdaq, Oil, and GoldNASDAQ The NASDAQ closed higher, supported by the 3-day moving average on the daily chart. After a recent surge, it has reached the upper Bollinger Band, with both the MACD and signal line crossing above the zero line, confirming a buy signal. However, due to the sharp rally, there is potential for a pullback today. If the price retraces to the 5-day moving average, it could consolidate within a range, allowing moving averages to converge. Should the NASDAQ fall further, the key question is whether it will fill the gap near 21700. If the gap remains unfilled and the price breaks higher, the daily buy signal would stay intact, potentially accelerating bullish momentum. On the 240-minute chart, the sell signal remains active despite a rebound. Selling at higher levels is preferable, while watching if the MACD avoids falling below the zero line and instead forms a golden cross with the signal line. Focus on dip-buying and selling at resistance, keeping the potential for a pullback to the 5-day moving average in mind. CRUDE OIL Crude oil closed lower, falling below the $75 level. It ended near the midpoint of the large bullish candle from January 10 ($74.66) after further downside pressure. This week’s decline reflects President Trump’s push to lower oil prices. Currently, crude is near the 20-day moving average and within the $74–$75 support zone, which aligns with the weekly 5-day moving average. This area is suitable for swing trading and dip-buying strategies. On the daily chart, the MACD has crossed below the signal line, creating a short-term sell signal. However, the significant divergence from the zero line suggests that crude may consolidate with bullish candles before attempting another upward move. On the 240-minute chart, the MACD has not yet formed a golden cross with the signal line, but selling pressure has weakened significantly. If a golden cross occurs, a strong rebound could follow. Avoid chasing shorts and focus on buying dips at key levels. GOLD Gold rebounded from key support levels, closing flat with a lower wick on the daily candle. The daily chart shows that bullish momentum remains strong, making dip-buying at major support levels the preferred strategy. Gold touched the upper Bollinger Band on the weekly chart before pulling back, indicating that a clear trend may not emerge until next week. On the 240-minute chart, a sell signal formed at the recent high, with the MACD divergence leading to a sharp decline. While the price is recovering, the sell signal remains active, increasing the likelihood of another pullback. Gold appears to be consolidating within a range, building energy for the next leg higher. Today, focus on box-range trading with selling at resistance and buying at support. Be mindful of major economic data releases before the main session, and manage risks carefully. Best of luck with your trades, and have a successful end to the week! ■Trading Strategies for Today NASDAQ - Bullish Market -Buy: 21980 / 21910 / 21870 / 21790 / 21720 -Sell: 22040 / 22075 / 22110 Crude Oil - Range-bound Market -Buy: 74.10 / 73.40 / 73.00 / 72.40 -Sell: 75.10 / 75.70 / 76.20 / 76.75 / 77.10 Gold - Bullish Market -Buy: 2750 / 2743 / 2737 / 2731 -Sell: 2770 / 2774 / 2779 / 2785 These strategies apply only during pre-market hours.

DeepSeek: Interrupt, Reprice and RelaunchCME: Micro E-Mini Nasdaq 100 Futures ( CME_MINI:MNQ1! ) #Microfutures DeepSeek might have changed the landscape of artificial intelligence forever. Since the launch of OpenAI’s ChatGPT in 2022, A.I. ran on advanced computer chips and large language models, costing billions for anyone to get in the game. DeepSeek, a Chinese startup, made a competitive A.I. model for a fraction of the cost, using less advanced chips. With 8-bit instead of 32-bit data, and by using data relevant to the task at-hand rather than keeping the entire database active all the time, DeepSeek cut the training cost by 95% and completed the task with 2,000 GPUs instead of 100,000. U.S. Stocks were down sharply on Monday on fear of an A.I. stock bubble popping. The Dow dropped 122 points, or 0.3%. The Nasdaq shed 3.2%, and the S&P 500 slid 1.9%. Wall Street raises concern that the billions spent to build big AI models could be done with much less investment. AI darling Nvidia dropped 11%, Broadcom lost 12%, and AMD shed 4%. Microsoft lost 4%. Amazon and Meta shed 2.4% and 1.4%, respectively. This is an example of “selling first and asking questions later”. Investors felt valuations are stretched for technology companies and headed for the exit. This highlights the risk involved in high-tech investment. DeepSeek disrupts the huge competitive edge held by OpenAI and Nvidia, making them less valuable overnight. In balance, a high-tech benchmark like the Nasdaq-100 index (NDX) provides better risk-adjusted returns. NDX: Past, Present and Future On midday January 27th, the NDX is quoted 21,137, down 3.0% for the day. Once the selloff is settled, we want to ask the question: “Is this a normal correction in a bull market, or the beginning of a bear market?” Let’s have a quick look at the past bear markets. During the dot-com bubble, the Nasdaq Composite Index peaked on March 10, 2000, at 5,048.6. As the bubble burst, the index plummeted to 1,139.9 by October 4, 2002. This represented a staggering decline of around 76.8%. The collapse was driven by the realization that many internet companies were grossly overvalued and unprofitable. In the 2022 bear market, NDX logged in a huge loss of 33.0%, bigger than that of DJX (-8.8%) and SPX (-18.1%). High-tech companies relied heavily on financing to fund their research, while many of them were yet to be profitable. The Fed rate hikes pushed their borrowing costs up by 500 basis points, worsening their financial woes. OpenAI's ChatGPT saved the day. This A.I. chatbot redefined the standards of artificial intelligence, proving that machines can indeed “learn” the complexities of human language and interaction. In my opinion, DeepSeek did not cancel out the breakthroughs achieved by others. On the contrary, by massively lowering the barrier of entry, DeepSeek could quicken A.I. development and its widespread adoption. A new era of A.I.-driven industrial revolution, started by OpenAI and boosted by DeepSeek, has only just begun. Additionally, Tech giants in the Silicon Valley are not sitting idly. OpenAI responded immediately by making the $200-a-month ChatGPT premium product free for all. The major players will learn from DeepSeek and redirect their research and development. After some short-term declines, the market will reprice the NDX component companies, setting them up for the next phase of the A.I. revolution. A.I. and Robotic Applications Are a Reality Last year, I took three trips to China and visited a dozen cities. What I observed there shows you how A.I. technology could be applied right now, not years away. • In the past, when I ordered takeouts while at hotels, I needed to go to the lobby to pick up my food. Nowadays, the hotel front desk would put my order inside a robot, which would then run and ride the elevator on its own and deliver the food to my room. • In fact, delivery robots are widely used for hotel room-service in China. They are not just in fancy hotels, but many budget hotels have also adopted them. The hospitality industry is labor intensive. Think about how much the labor cost this could cut down. • Restaurant patrons in China can scan a QR code to review menu, order food and pay for the meal online. Many have done without waiters, cashiers and printed menus altogether. If you want to save the 20-30% service tips, this may be the way to go. • Other emerging A.I. and robotic applications include driverless Taxi and food delivery by drone. On the one hand, they threaten the jobs of millions of people. On the other hand, they would save so much money for businesses and help their bottom-line. The adaptation to A.I. and robotic applications is slow in the U.S. Sometimes, they are being blocked by labor unions, who value job preservation more than anything else. Another reason is the lack of investment in A.I. infrastructure and commercial applications. On January 21st, President Donald Trump announced Project Stargate, a joint venture promising to invest up to $500 billion for infrastructure tied to artificial intelligence. This is a new partnership formed by OpenAI, Oracle and SoftBank. Separately, on January 22nd, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman announced that the oil producing country would invest up to $600 billion in the U.S., after his telephone call with President Trump. To sum up my analysis, it’s my view that A.I. applications are well under way, and large investment would help shore up A.I. infrastructure and steadily deliver cost-saving and efficiency improving applications across every corner of the economy. Project Stargate, named after the popular sci-fi movie, has the potential to spur another industrial revolution. After the market correction, NDX could rise higher once again. Trading with Micro E-Mini Nasdaq 100 Futures Investors sharing my view could consider the CME Micro E-Mini Nasdaq 100 futures (MNQ). The MNQ contracts offer smaller-sized versions of the benchmark E-Mini Nasdaq 100 futures (NQ). Micro futures have a contract size of $2 times the Nasdaq 100 index, which is 1/10th of the E-Mini contract. Micro contracts are very liquid. CME Group data shows that 1,279,703 contracts were traded on January 24th. Open Interest at the end of the day was 100,680. Buying or selling 1 MNQ contract requires an initial margin of $2,306. With Monday midday quote of 21,156, each March contract (MNQH5) has a notional value of $42,312. Compared with investing in the underlying stocks, the futures contracts offer a built-in leverage of about 18 times (=42312/2306). Hypothetically, a trader waits for the Nasdaq futures price to drop to 20,000 then enters a long order. If MNQ rebounds to its previous high at 22,100, the price change of 2,100 points (22100-20000) will translate into $4,200 in profit for a long position, given each index point equal to $2 for the Micro contract. Using the initial margin of $2,306 as a cost base, the trade would produce a theoretical return of 182% (=4200/2306). The risk of a long MNQ position is that the Nasdaq goes into a bear market. To hedge the downsize risk, the trader could set a stop-loss in his buy order. For illustration, he would put the stop-loss at 19,500 when submitting the buy order at 20,000. If the Nasdaq declines 20% from its peak of 22,100 to 17,680, the long position would be liquidated well before that, and the maximum loss would be $1,000 (= (20000-19500)*2). Happy Trading.

NQ Longs Price Action & Trend: Identify the trend (uptrend, downtrend, or consolidation). Find support and resistance levels (e.g., a bounce off 13,000 could be a potential long entry, with resistance at 13,500). Technical Indicators: Moving Averages (MA): Bullish if price is above the 50-period and 200-period MAs. Look for a Golden Cross (50-period MA crossing above 200-period). RSI: Between 40-60 is ideal, indicating room for upward movement. MACD: Look for a bullish crossover (MACD line above the signal line). Volume: Higher volume on upward moves confirms strength in the trend. Broader Market Conditions: Watch the S&P 500 and Dow Jones for correlations with NQ. Strong performance in tech stocks like Apple, Microsoft, and Amazon can drive NQ higher. Macro Economic Factors: Keep an eye on key economic reports and earnings season, as these can significantly impact the market. Stay Active on the charts

MNQH Continued Bullish Run On Friday price made a nice Bullish run that took out the PDH from the previous two days and price closed above the D LV and D SIBI. Currently we have price wicking off the D LV and has traded higher cutting through the MT level of the -OB. If price can stay above that MT level then I can see price going higher and taking out the PDH from Fri Jan 17 2025 at 21680.00 and then eventually target the PDHs from January 6th and 7th. So lets continue to watch and see if price has truly switched to being Bullish after taking SSL, and finding support off the D BISI CE level.

Today analysis for Nasdaq, Oil, and GoldNASDAQ NASDAQ successfully rebounded and closed higher. Yesterday was a day where selling at the 3-day moving average was possible, and after rebounding to the 3-day line, it faced resistance and closed at that level. The rebound appears to be a recovery from the excessive drop on Monday due to overblown concerns about China's Deepseek. On the daily chart, the MACD remains above the signal line, maintaining a buy signal, which suggests further attempts to rebound are likely. Additionally, today’s FOMC meeting and major corporate earnings reports will be pivotal in determining whether the downward gap created on Monday will be filled. On the 240-minute chart, the MACD is attempting a golden cross after the sharp drop and subsequent rebound. If the golden cross is not confirmed and the index falls again, it may test the double-bottom level, so caution is advised when chasing a buying position. However, if the golden cross is confirmed, it would be advisable to adopt a buy-on-dip strategy, as buying momentum remains strong. Today’s primary strategy should be selling at the 5-day moving average resistance level, making it advantageous to sell at resistance areas near the 5-day line. With strong upward momentum and potential pre-market consolidation due to economic data announcements, a box-range trading approach would be ideal. OIL Oil closed higher, encountering resistance near the $74 level. The daily chart shows that the 240-day moving average acted as support, with a bullish candle forming as oil prepares for another rebound attempt. The MACD still signals a sell trend, but consistent buying efforts could continue. As mentioned earlier, even if oil rises, it’s likely to face pullbacks at certain levels. On the 240-minute chart, a buy signal has been confirmed, with a double-bottom pattern forming alongside a lower shadow, indicating a favorable buy-on-dip strategy. If a strong rebound occurs, prices could rise to the 10-day moving average around $75.50. Selling positions should be avoided for now, with a focus on buy-on-dip strategies. Additionally, be mindful of price volatility due to today’s inventory report. GOLD Gold closed higher, supported by the 10-day moving average on the daily chart. The MACD and signal line on the daily chart still show separation, and gold has recovered both the 3-day and 5-day moving averages, making a buy-on-dip strategy effective. For April contracts, it is crucial to see whether gold can break above $2,815 on the weekly chart and form a bullish candle. Be cautious of increased volatility in gold prices resulting from today’s FOMC meeting outcomes. On the 240-minute chart, the MACD is on the verge of a golden cross. If gold fails to see additional significant gains, the price could form the right shoulder of a head-and-shoulders pattern. If the MACD fails to build further upward momentum and starts to fall, a third wave of selling could occur, so keeping this scenario in mind is advised. The clear trend will likely be determined after today’s FOMC meeting, so monitoring gold’s movement after the announcement will be key. ■Trading Strategies for Today NASDAQ - Range-bound Market -Buy: 21,520 / 21,475 / 21,410 / 21,375 / 21,290 -Sell: 21,610 / 21,700 / 21,770 / 21,900 OIL - Range-bound Market -Buy: 73.65 / 73.10 / 72.60 -Sell: 74.60 / 75.00 / 75.50 / 76.00 GOLD - Bullish Market(April) -Buy: 2,791 / 2,787 / 2,783 / 2,775 -Sell: 2,804 / 2,809 / 2,821 These strategies apply only during pre-market hours.

NQ: 129th trading session - recapTook a short today 4min into the market open - winning trade. Although I was "wrong" (again I never set a specific bias) with the assumption of price pushing down further, I was right in my prediction. Price actually pushed down with a lot of momentum, just not far enough for it to actually have been a continuation. But whatever, I shorted, NQ dumped, and a while later it recovered. I took my profit at a 3RR target, as always: Once price hits my 1.5:1RR: I set my SL on breakeven. Later a good range accumulated, I didn't take any trades tho. I won't trade the opening tomorrow, I'll watch the aftermath tho.

Weekly and Monday analysis for Nasdaq, Oil, and GoldNASDAQ NASDAQ closed lower, finding support at the 5-day moving average. Last Friday unfolded as expected, with a correction to the 5-day line being part of the wave pattern, making a sell-oriented approach the best strategy for the day. The downward wave emerged in the afternoon rather than during the pre-market, resulting in extended consolidation. On the weekly chart, it formed a bullish candle, reaching the upper range of the box zone; however, the MACD has yet to fully cross above the signal line. This week, the area between the 3-day and 5-day moving averages (20,800–20,600) could act as a short-term pullback buying zone. If this area fails to hold and prices close lower with a bearish candle, the market might revert to maintaining a wide-ranging box zone. Therefore, it's crucial to close the week with a bullish candle to confirm a buy signal. On the daily chart, the MACD and signal line are positioned above the zero line, indicating that buying pressure could persist. However, the Bollinger Bands are narrowing, suggesting that significant additional surges are unlikely. A short-term correction perspective is advisable. If prices fail to decisively break above the 3-day moving average near 21,950, a correction to the 10-day moving average should be considered. The 240-minute chart shows the emergence of a long bearish candle forming a double top. If Friday’s low at 21,844 is breached, there’s a strong likelihood of filling the gap created on January 22. The MACD and signal line still show a significant gap from the zero line, so there could be support and a rebound at the lower levels. In summary, while a short-term sell perspective is advisable, buying opportunities could emerge near the gap-filling zone around 21,700 during pullbacks. OIL Oil closed higher at $74, finding support and forming a bullish daily candle for the first time in six trading sessions. This bounce establishes a foothold at the key support level of $74. On the weekly chart, prices found support at the 5-day moving average. Although the MACD has crossed above the zero line, the signal line is still slightly below it. If a bullish candle forms this week, it will confirm a buy signal on the weekly chart, favoring buy-oriented strategies. On the daily chart, prices could rise again, finding support at the 20-day moving average. However, the sharp downward angle of the recent decline from $79 and the ongoing sell signal from the MACD indicate that any rally may face resistance and pullbacks. If prices rebound to the $77–$78 range, there is a high probability of a pullback. The $74–$79 range is likely to hold, with a period of consolidation allowing moving averages to converge. On the 240-minute chart, bullish divergence is forming near $74, and the MACD is on the verge of generating a buy signal. A buy-oriented strategy on pullbacks is advisable. GOLD Gold closed higher with an upper shadow on the daily candle. On the weekly chart, prices reached the upper Bollinger Band. The MACD, however, has yet to achieve a golden cross above the signal line, keeping the sell signal intact. A strong rally with a long bullish candle would be required to confirm a buy signal. If additional upward momentum fails and prices start to decline, the MACD may turn downward again. The current gap between the MACD and signal line suggests that an immediate buy signal might not be achievable. On the daily chart, buying pressure remains strong, and as long as the 10-day moving average holds, a one-way buying trend is likely. On the 240-minute chart, resistance is evident at higher levels, and divergence in the MACD could occur. It’s advisable to avoid chasing prices higher. Given the staircase-like upward movement, a buy-oriented approach on pullbacks is recommended. This Week’s Key Events: FOMC meeting (Wednesday) Tesla and Meta earnings reports (Wednesday) Apple earnings report (Thursday) Expect heightened volatility on Wednesday and Thursday. Good luck with your investments this week! ■Trading Strategies for Today NASDAQ - Range-bound Market -Buy: 21,850 / 21,785 / 21,720 / 21,630 / 21,530 -Sell: 21,970 / 22,010 / 22,055 / 22,105 OIL - Range-bound Market -Buy: 74.15 / 73.40 / 72.80 / 72.40 -Sell: 75.20 / 75.95 / 76.40 / 77.10 GOLD - Bullish Market -Buy: 2,774 / 2,768 / 2,762 / 2,752 -Sell: 2,782 / 2,793 / 2,799 / 2,816 These strategies apply only during pre-market hours.

Good luck with Nasdaq on Friday 25.01.24Hello, this is Greedy All-Day. Today’s analysis focuses on the NASDAQ. Breakout Analysis Chart: The ascending trendline broke shortly after the Asian session ended and just before the European session began. Buy Perspective: None. Sell Perspective: Although the trendline broke, the current market conditions suggest a need for a different interpretation. At this point, as the entry and stop-loss levels are near breakeven, it’s advisable to exit and observe further movements. Net Result: Zero profit for both buy and sell positions. Daily Chart Analysis Chart: The daily chart shows the NASDAQ tested the support at the orange supply zone and closed as a bullish candle on 25.01.23. Key Observations: The next resistance zone is the green box, above the blue box supply zone. A breakout attempt on 25.01.22 failed at 22093.5, which is just below the previous high at 22111.25 from 24.12.26. The daily chart from 25.01.23 indicates a tightening range with higher lows and lower highs. However, no clear directional breakout has occurred yet. Current Movement Chart: The current price action suggests a pennant formation after the breakout above the red box. The breakout direction will determine the next major move. Until then, observing the market from the sidelines appears to be the safest approach. Trading Strategy Buy Strategy Entry 1: Breakout above the purple box & red resistance trendline. Entry 2: Breakout above the green box high at 22111.25. Additional Notes: If the pattern breaks upward and surpasses the purple box, the first resistance is 22093.5, with the major resistance at 22111.25. While resistance near the major zone could result in pullbacks, a strong upward momentum is possible, particularly as past breakouts have led to sharp rallies. Reference Chart: Sell Strategy Entry: Break below the ascending trendline and 21854.50. Additional Notes: Despite occasional breakdowns of the ascending trendline, the market has frequently rebounded afterward. The primary bearish argument is the failure to break through major resistance. For a more conservative approach, enter short positions only if the support at 21854.5 (the daily support from 25.01.23) fails. Reference Chart: Conclusion The Asian markets will observe a week-long holiday starting next week: Korea: Closed from Monday. China: Closed from Tuesday. Hong Kong: Closed from Wednesday. This will likely result in reduced trading volume. With no major news today, the probability of a bearish reversal seems low.
