NQ Bullish with Signs of a Potential Reversal in Early OctoberThe Nasdaq 100 ( CME_MINI:NQ1! ) futures continue to exhibit a strong uptrend, driven by market optimism and supportive economic factors. As seen on the chart, the Bonsai trend indicator remains bullish, signaling the ongoing upward momentum. However, caution is warranted as we approach a critical resistance zone, where multiple technical and external factors suggest the potential for a pullback. Key Technical Levels and Signals Resistance at 20,600 : The price is nearing a significant resistance zone between 20,500 and 20,600, where previous highs have been met with seller pressure. The market may struggle to break through this zone in the short term, leading to possible consolidation or retracement. Bearish Strength on Oscillators : The Bonsai OS is starting to signal an incoming bearish strength, where the oscillator fails to make new highs while the price continues to rise. This divergence suggests that the current bullish move may be losing momentum, increasing the probability of a reversal or correction in the near term. Short-Term Retracement : A retracement to the 19,800-20,000 region would be healthy for the overall trend, providing potential buying opportunities for traders waiting for a dip. This level aligns with previous support zones and retracement levels, making it a logical area for price to stabilize before another move upward. Geopolitical and Economic Factors Affecting NQ U.S. Elections and Tax Policy : The upcoming U.S. election between Vice President Harris and former President Trump is creating uncertainty around future tax policies, particularly regarding capital gains and unrealized gains taxation. Investors may start adjusting their portfolios as we get closer to October, historically a volatile month for the markets​. Global Conflicts and Economic Risks : Rising tensions in Ukraine, the Middle East, and Taiwan add further geopolitical risk. Market participants are keeping a close eye on potential escalations, as these conflicts could shift sentiment toward a risk-off environment, impacting indices like the Nasdaq 100​. Fed Policy and Economic Data : The Federal Reserve's recent rate cut has temporarily buoyed the markets, but upcoming data releases—particularly around inflation and employment—could change the tone. Economic surprises in early October could lead to volatility, especially if the data fails to support the current bullish narrative​. Conclusion: Bullish But Cautious The overall Bonsai indicator continues to signal an uptrend, and the market looks poised to push higher if it can break through the 20,600 resistance zone. However, the oscillator's bearish divergence and external political risks suggest a potential reversal or at least a short-term correction in the first week of October. Traders should monitor these signals closely and consider adjusting their positions accordingly. Keep an eye on the VIX as well, which has been known to spike during periods of heightened uncertainty, offering opportunities to hedge against increased volatility​.

2024-09-25 Nasdaq / Nas100Hello, this is ViViD. Let’s proceed with today’s NASDAQ analysis. First, let's review yesterday’s NASDAQ analysis results. I mentioned that if a breakout occurs above the resistance trendline, there could be a buying opportunity. If you entered at the yellow box area after the breakout, you could have made around $50 in profit, which equates to approximately $1,000 profit per lot. Additionally, a selling entry point was also reached. Based on the entry point, around $70 profit per lot was made, equivalent to about $1,400 per lot. The total profit for yesterday was approximately $2,400 per lot. Here is the daily chart of NASDAQ. Yesterday, NASDAQ slightly broke the previous high before dropping back down, changing its pattern from a pennant to a rising wedge. Although the buying pressure on the daily chart is strong, if it fails to break out with strong momentum, it is likely that the pattern will complete and a reversal could occur. This is today’s trading strategy. First, let's examine the sell perspective. If the price breaks below the rising trendline and the yellow box at the price level of 20,050.75, I recommend entering a short position. Breaking below the rising trendline and the short-term bounce zone in the red box could signal a drop to the lower end of NASDAQ’s trading range. In this case, the price could potentially drop to yesterday’s low around 19,956. If we consider the two blue boxes, yesterday’s low was slightly lower, but there was a strong rebound in that area, suggesting that support around 19,956 remains strong. Therefore, the target for the sell position would be near 19,956. Even if the market sees stronger selling pressure, support from the green box on the left needs to be broken before considering a move down to the purple box. My strategy is to target the 19,956 area for the initial sell, and if the market breaks below the green box, I would re-enter the sell trade and aim for the purple box. Now, for the buy perspective. In the case of buying, both a breakout of the resistance trendline and a breakout above the yellow box, which is around the 20,143 price level, should occur simultaneously to signal a trend reversal to the upside. The target for the buy would be around 20,190, which is conservative because the resistance between the 20,415–20,250 range is quite strong. It’s important to secure profits cautiously. There are no major economic indicators scheduled for release today. Therefore, the market might remain steady, following the flow from the European session. If the market moves in one direction, the trend may persist until the end of the session. Have a successful trading day. - ViViD -

2024-09-24 Nasdaq / Nas100Hello, this is ViViD. Here is today’s Nasdaq analysis. This is the daily Nasdaq chart. As I mentioned in yesterday’s analysis, for further upward movement to happen, the price needs to break above the resistance level of the supply zone. This would allow for potential entry from a buying perspective. However, the price movement has been sideways due to the supply zone's resistance, which hasn't yet determined a clear direction. As we can see in the daily chart, the current pattern shows a pennant pattern, which could indicate a consolidation to the right before a potential continuation of the upward trend. On the contrary, it could also signify a peak, leading to a decline after breaking below the support level. In the Asian session, we observed a break of the upward trend line. You can see the breakdown in the blue box. However, the rebound zone after the break is noteworthy. The white trend line indicates that the price is making slightly higher lows, establishing a form of support. Thus, Nasdaq seems to be defending this zone. The key to focus on is whether the white short-term support line holds. The main takeaway is that while the trend is making higher lows and defending the price, the most critical point for a selling perspective is the break below the white support line at the lowest level of 20016.25. Now, for a buying perspective: The optimal entry point seems to be when the price breaks above the blue box zone, which corresponds to breaking both the price level and the resistance trend line. The reason 20127 is significant is that the white box shows two instances of resistance at this level, making a breakout here critical. Once the price breaks through, the targets would be at 20164, 20204, and 20264, with additional resistances along the way. However, this breakout could signal the pennant pattern's upward continuation, stabilizing the long-term trend for further upward momentum. Today, we have the CB Consumer Confidence data, so be cautious of any sharp market changes after the announcement. I hope you have a profitable day! - ViViD -

NASDAQ 100 E-mini: Curve AnalysisStrategic Insights and Trade Setups Here's a quick rundown of the key insights from today's technical analysis and trade setup based on the 1D timeframe Oscillators, Moving Averages, and my current plan for a potential downtrend as price action approaches the Supply Zone. 📊 Oscillators Summary Most oscillators signal neutrality, reflecting an uncertain market stance. However, a few important indicators stand out: Relative Strength Index (RSI): Currently at 61.33, suggesting neutral conditions but nearing overbought territory. Stochastic %K: Sitting at 92.25, also near the overbought zone, which warrants close monitoring. Momentum (10): Signals a Sell with a reading of 1,367.25, indicating slowing upward momentum. MACD Level (12, 26): Flashes a Buy signal at 161.98, reflecting continued bullish momentum. 📈 Moving Averages Summary The majority of the Moving Averages indicate a Buy signal, reinforcing the bullish sentiment in the medium to long-term trends: All significant EMAs and SMAs (10, 20, 30, 50, 100, 200) show positive signals, implying sustained upward momentum. The Hull Moving Average (9) is the sole outlier, indicating a Sell, suggesting short-term weakness or a pullback is possible. Trade Setup: Downtrend in the Supply Zone I have positioned two Sell Limit Orders (SLOs) and four Take Profit targets (TPs) to capitalize on a potential reversal if price action enters overbought territory: SLO1 @ 20,340⏳ SLO2 @ 20,645⏳ TP1 @ 19,758 TP2 @ 19,269 TP3 @ 18,909 TP4: 18,352 BLO1 @ 18,219⏳ BLO2 @ 17,894⏳ These levels are designed to capture downside movements while staying prepared for any potential reversal once the lower levels are tested. Stop-Loss Levels Pivot High Stop-Loss: 20,797 Pivot Low Stop-Loss: 17,741 The setup reflects a balanced risk approach to entering short positions as price action nears overbought conditions while staying flexible for any market reversals. Keep an eye on these levels and adjust your strategies accordingly. We'll continue monitoring market dynamics for more clarity and updates.

NQ! - Looks to be making corrections today. (smc)20,125, I'm thinking price might hit that around 10 am NY Time. And get rejected there becaus it's both a fair value gap and a Bearish Breaker. First take profit spot is 19955, thats just below Fridays afternon spike down. That should be the end of the day, maybe. But looks like it's setting up for a deep cut. Usually the 10 am hour it has only one direction, it dropped at the start of the hour but it's pushing it's way back up. I just can't ee a rejection until it hits 20125, But I could be off and it could short early. I'm holding a buy until I think it hits that number or if I can clearly see that it's not cooperating, I'll jump ship nd just sell but I'll post updates. Safe Trading! SMC = Smart Money Concepts, no such thing asa trend line or a Bat, it's all about liquidity. I have a few tutorials in my ideas
