NQ Range (01-06-25)2025 will get going this week or next. The prior Post called U Turn near the Danger Zone with Friday-Monday rally, which may be extended to 1/13 since markets closed on 1/9. Orange TL is danger zone, shaded are U Turn zones and others are just key levels (KL's). 990 hit & Long U Turn to stall out (next dash white or 22,080). Notice 12/18 & 19, we may see that now on way up and if not, reverse it and NAZ will fall in the DZ. 1st white vertical is Friday close and 2nd is January month end. Looking for NAZ to retest 18,655 should it get in and stay in the DZ. We will need to see some drops in the off session Overnight (never happens) and Not see the Friday-Monday Long play. Unless these breakdown look Long (as they are holding up the NAZ). Should these crack we could see some drop moves like 12/18 & 19th and provide the right shoulder to the H/S. BTD, FOMO, GoFed in 2025.

Nasdaq buys coming in uptoo 21400This week promises to be intriguing with the Non-Farm Payroll (NFP) release scheduled for Wednesday. My focus will be on Monday’s London session to potentially set up a buy scenario for Nasdaq, aiming for the 21450 level. I plan to approach Monday with reduced risk and lighter trading volume. Tuesday looks more dynamic, as I’ll be targeting a short setup if the market reaches my key point of interest. The conviction to target 20680 remains strong, aligning with my overall bias. Lets wait and see how manual intervention takes action Happy Trading and trust your process. Proverbs 16:3 (NKJV) Commit your works to the Lord, and your thoughts will be established.

Nasdaq Analysis for Tuesday 25.01.14Hello, this is Greedy All-Day. Today’s analysis focuses on the NASDAQ. Monday’s Results Chart: Buy Perspective: No buy entry signals were triggered. Sell Perspective: While there was a mention of the possibility of a breakdown below the lows, no clear sell entry signals were given. After the breakdown, the NASDAQ dropped by approximately 180 points but eventually rebounded sharply toward the end of the session. This suggests that observing for a day to allow for the formation of a supply zone would have been a prudent approach. Key Points to Note Chart: March Futures Contract: The price initially broke below the Ichimoku Cloud on Monday but re-entered the cloud due to Tuesday’s gap-up opening. Key Levels: Cloud bottom: 20980. A failure to hold this support level could have a long-term bearish impact. Cloud top: 21216, marking an important resistance level. Perpetual Contract Analysis Chart: The perpetual contract shows the price re-entered the Ichimoku Cloud after briefly touching the cloud's bottom. A bullish candle has formed above the cloud, signaling support. Key Levels: Cloud entry: 21005. Resistance at the 60 EMA: 21085. Current Market Frame Chart: The NASDAQ appears to have entered either the red box or the orange box frame: Red Box Range: 20788–19818. Orange Box Range: 20382–21081. Key Resistance Levels: The 21081–21085 range represents a critical resistance zone. A breakout above this level could signal the potential for further rebound. Today’s Trading Strategy Chart: Buy Strategy: 1. Breakout Above 21088.5 (Morning High): Rationale: This represents a breakout above both the resistance trendline starting from January 7, 2025, and the morning high. Risk: The price could face immediate resistance at 21123, potentially reversing quickly. 2. Breakout Above 21207: Rationale: This level marks the top of a previous supply zone following a sharp decline, making it a more conservative entry point. Sell Strategy: While the framing structure is complete, the market appears to be stabilizing at the bottom. For now, observing the market and avoiding sell entries is recommended. Conclusion The NASDAQ remains in a critical consolidation phase, with the potential for both rebounds and further declines. For buyers, focus on breakouts above 21088.5 and 21207 for potential upside. For sellers, it’s advisable to observe the market for clearer signals, as the recent bottoming behavior suggests limited downside in the short term. Patience and careful observation are key in today’s session. Let’s stay disciplined and trade wisely. 🚀 Please like and subscribe!

Nasdaq 2025 outlookAs we complete 2024 and the significant move we have experienced in the NQ this year, its time to have a look at the possible outcome for 2025. the ascending triangle suggests a topping pattern and as the Santa Claus rally completes and portfolio adjustments for year-end, I have to conclude that we will see a reasonable correction in January/February next year. I have drawn boxes to indicate my support and resistance areas. As we all have found out this year sentiment is a primary driver of markets but we are so extended and selling rallies is challenging. I don't believe in fighting the trend but look for a set-up that limits your risk, happy holidays and take care

MNQ Week Review 01/06/25 - 01/10/25 Price delivered precisely to the Daily Discount Draw on Liquidity which was the D BISI 50% quadrant at 20,875.75 underneath that nice triple bottom PDLs. Now the question to ask is does price justify staying inside that BISI or will price cut through the BISI and continue to reach for the SSL at 20,640.00? Lets continue to watch and see if price reverses or continues lower from here. This week I got to experience first hand why its good to have a Directional Bias and why its a good idea to stick with it regardless of being right or wrong. - First always remember as a traders we do not control outcome only our performance and if we get one day wrong then thats okay because its only one day in my trading career not my whole trading career. Also its very important to have methodology or an edge that can produce consistency as that will help aid the mental battle of missing trades or getting the bias wrong and not getting the framework to take a trade. In the beginning it might feel bad but keep in mind the game is not capital gain but capital preservation. If your methodology is consistent in terms of producing setups then missed setups or hitting SL should not worry you as there will always be another day to trade and get a setup. -Another key thing I want to touch on is the peace of mind you get when sticking to your Directional Bias. When your looking for example only Bullish scenarios and ignore all Bearish ones then your not over here investing mental capital on a trade that you know is counter to the HTF Bias and could easily hit your SL. Watching price action also becomes enjoyable as well because you don't care to be right or wrong so if your right and your setup forms then take the trade and if your wrong then just turn the charts off and trade another day as there is plenty of trading opportunities through out the year.

HTF Directional Bias for MNQ I have a Bearish Bias in play before the 07:00 Pre Session aiming to reach for the Fri 03 Jan 2025 at 21,144.25 and price could come as low as the 20,934.00 level which has the clean triple bottom SSL. The reason why I am Bearish is because price has made a recent rally into the D SIBI and found rejection at the 50% CE level on Mon 06 Jan 2025. Then on Tue 07 Jan 2025 price left that D SIBI to trade lower through the Volume Imbalance and into the discount wick of the candle from Thu 02 Jan 2025. Since it is a very heavy news release I do expect it to make a nice move lower since there is a bunch of SSL resting below the PDL's and price could reach as low as the discount D BISI 50% CE level at 20,871.25

Prepare before National Foundation Day on Nasdaq 25.01.09Hello, this is Greedy All-Day. First, I’d like to apologize for not posting a briefing yesterday, January 8, due to personal reasons. Let’s dive into today’s analysis of the NASDAQ. Tuesday’s Briefing Results Buy Entry: No buy entries were triggered, so there’s no commentary for this perspective. Sell Entry: The trigger was a breakdown below the ascending trendline and the lower boundary of the supply zone at 21640. Outcome: After the breakdown, the NASDAQ dropped by 350 points. Profit: Approximately $7,000 per contract. Daily Chart Analysis The NASDAQ is currently consolidating between the 20 EMA and the 60 EMA, which suggests indecision: The price has not closed below the 60 EMA, indicating that support is still holding and cautioning against premature selling. The price has not entered the Ichimoku Cloud, which means a full bearish transition has not occurred yet. This range-bound movement suggests that the market is awaiting a major catalyst, such as an economic indicator or political news, to determine the next directional move. A more strategic approach is required in this scenario. Key Supply Zone Dynamics The current range is highlighted in the orange box, where price movements have shown inconsistent behavior: Resistance and support levels within this range do not align consistently. The best approach in this zone is to wait for a clear breakout in either direction before entering a trade. This area is prone to stop-hunting, increasing the risk of being prematurely stopped out in both directions. Today’s Trading Strategy Buy Scenario: Entry Trigger: A breakout above the green box at 21812. Reasoning: The red box marks the upper boundary of the resistance zone, but breaking above it alone does not provide a strong buy signal. A move above 21812 would signify a breakout above key resistance levels, including the descending trendline and prior candle resistance, providing sufficient justification for a buy entry. Sell Scenario: Entry Trigger: A breakdown below the orange box support. Reasoning: Breaking the short-term ascending trendline would open the door for a test of Wednesday’s low. If the low is breached, the price could decline further to the 21006 level. The 21006 support zone corresponds to the January 2, 2025 low of 20983, a critical level. A breakdown here would signify entry into the daily Ichimoku Cloud, opening substantial downside targets. Conclusion Today is a market holiday in the U.S. (National Foundation Day), so trading activity will be paused. In such conditions, I recommend avoiding impulsive or speculative trades and instead observing the market’s behavior to prepare for the next session. Stay disciplined and trade wisely. 🚀 This briefing will remain valid until Friday due to the market holiday. The next NASDAQ briefing will be shared over the weekend in preparation for Monday’s trading.

The NASDAQ is Approaching a Selling OpportunityCurrently, the NASDAQ is showing a strong uptrend on the daily chart, but the gap between the 3-day and 5-day moving averages has significantly widened. Even if the market opens with a gap up today, a pullback is likely due to this divergence, so chasing buys is not recommended. For selling at the top, consider these levels: 21940, 22040, and 22110. Especially near 22040, the resistance zone aligns with the upper Bollinger Band, making it a favorable level for selling. Following President Trump’s announcement of expanded AI infrastructure investments, AI-related stocks like NVIDIA have surged. However, it’s unlikely that the rally will continue significantly from this point. Additionally, the NASDAQ has already triggered a sell signal on the 30-minute chart, and this could cascade into sell signals on the 60-minute, 120-minute, and 240-minute charts. Be cautious about chasing long positions. For dip-buying opportunities, 21770, a previous resistance level, may serve as a good entry point if the market pulls back. Should the price drop to the 5-day moving average, 21630 would offer an even better buying opportunity. I post daily analysis on the NASDAQ, Crude Oil, and Gold.
