US30 - medium to long term opportunity setting upHello,
The US30 futures are forming a bullish pattern, signaling potential upside. The MACD and moving averages align, presenting a compelling opportunity for buyers.
Investors should note President Trump's aggressive push for Federal Reserve Chair Powell to cut interest rates, including threats to dismiss him if he resists. While this rhetoric could unsettle markets, we believe Trump is unlikely to follow through, as markets have likely found a bottom and he would avoid actions that could trigger a downturn.
Technical analysis supports early entry for bold investors, with a stop-loss placed below the recent low. Proceed with caution and good luck.

US30 Approaching Key Resistance Within Rising Channel:🧠 Chart Context & Overview
Chart Type: Candlestick
Time Frame: Appears to be Daily (based on price action and spacing of dates)
Current Price: ~$40,798.4
Indicators:
EMA 50 (Red): ~40,065.2
EMA 200 (Blue): ~41,475.6
Trend Structure: Ascending channel with higher highs and higher lows forming since early April.
🔍 Technical Breakdown
📈 Trend Analysis
The price is moving within a rising parallel channel, respecting both upper and lower boundaries.
The recent bullish candles indicate momentum building towards a breakout or test of resistance.
🔄 EMA Confluence
Price is above the 50 EMA, showing short-term bullish momentum.
EMA 200 is acting as overhead resistance (~41,475), aligned with the top of the channel—a key decision zone.
📊 Support & Resistance Levels
Immediate Resistance: ~41,475 (EMA 200 & upper channel boundary).
Support Levels:
~40,065 (EMA 50)
~39,000 (mid-channel support zone)
~38,000 (lower channel boundary)
📌 Scenarios to Watch
✅ Bullish Case:
A clean breakout above the channel and the 200 EMA (~41,475) with strong volume could trigger a trend continuation toward:
42,500 – next psychological and historical resistance
Potentially higher if macro sentiment aligns
⚠️ Bearish Case:
Rejection at 200 EMA or the upper channel could lead to:
A pullback to the mid-channel zone (~39,800–40,000)
Further downside to retest the lower channel support (~38,000)
📅 Outlook
The chart currently supports a bullish bias within an uptrend structure, but the key resistance zone (41,475) must be broken decisively for confirmation. Watch for volume and candle structure near that level to assess breakout validity.
Dow Jones Wave Analysis – 12 May 2025
- Dow Jones broke the resistance area
- Likely to rise to resistance level 43000.00
Dow Jones index recently broke the resistance area between the resistance level 42000.00, 61.8% Fibonacci correction of the downward impulse from February and the resistance trendline from the same month.
The breakout of this resistance area accelerated the C-wave of the active ABC correction (2) from the start of April.
Dow Jones index can be expected to rise to the next resistance level 43000.00 (former top of wave 4 from March).
US30 Sell Setup before the BIG MOVE TO THE MOON" US30 has been moonwalking higher like it’s got a VIP pass—thanks to those cozy deals between the US and EU. The bulls are charging like they’ve had one too many energy drinks, and honestly, it’s getting a little too enthusiastic up here.
So, I’m eyeing a sneaky short sale for a quick snack of profit before the long-term feast. But I won’t just dive in like a reckless lemming—oh no, I’ll wait for my trusty confirmations to wave their little green (or red?) flags first.
As for the long game? Once my short-sell shenanigans hit those sweet support levels (and hopefully bounce like a trampoline), I’ll switch teams and ride the buy train. Because why pick a side when you can profit from both?"
Hope that brings a smile while keeping your trading strategy sharp! 😆📈
DOW JONES: Breached the 1D MA200. Tariff War 2018 Recovery aheadDow Jones is on excellent bullish levels on its 1D technical outlook (RSI = 62.103, MACD = 203.720, ADX = 34.693) and as it crossed today above the 1D MA200 for the first time since April 2nd, and practically validates the recovery from the Tariff War correction, it draws strong comparisons with the last U.S.-China Tariff War in 2018. Both rebounded after highly oversold 1D RSI levels, and the 2019 recovery almost hit the 0.9 Fibonacci level before turning into a less aggressive recovery. The trade is long, TP = 44,100.

US 30 - Ranges overview (update) Let's have a look at US 30. Just like most markets it's trading up and following the plans we sketched out earlier.
Let's see how me trade from here.
We are currently entering the HTF inverted FVG sitting around 42115.
IF we hold the HTF inverted fair value gap expect us to aggressively trade towards 42500 and and the buyside liquidity sitting around 45000 (red line).
IF we fail to hold the HTF inverted fair value gap expect us to trade back towards 40400.

US30 Breaks Out – New Highs Incoming (12/05/2025) 📈 US30 Breaks Out – New Highs Incoming? (12/05/2025) 🚀
US30 just smashed through key resistance at 41,400–41,700 and is now trading above 42,150 🟢. After weeks of range-bound structure, buyers finally broke the chokehold with volume and momentum confirmation.
Both the 20 EMA (white) and 50 EMA (blue) are angled up — and price is riding above them. We’re in strong bullish structure 🧠.
🔑 Updated Key Levels:
📍 New Support: 41,700–41,400 (previous resistance flipped)
⚠️ Mid-support: 40,694
🧱 Major Support: 39,775
🎯 Next resistance to watch: 42,359 (previous swing high zone)
🎯 Playbook Going Forward:
✅ Hold above 41,700? → Expect continuation to 42,359 and possibly 43K+
⚠️ Fakeout alert: If we close back below 41,400 on high volume → bear trap or liquidity grab
🧠 Pullbacks into EMAs = potential long entries with confluence
🧠 Psychology Check:
Don’t short strength — wait for breakdown structure
High breakout = higher risk → let price pull back to react
US30 Reaches Critical Resistance – Breakout or Major Rejection IThe Dow Jones is testing a key supply zone near 41,700 after a strong bullish rally. But with multiple U.S. economic events on deck, this could be a make-or-break moment for US30.
1H Technical Breakdown:
1. Major Supply Zone (Resistance):
41,119 – 41,800 zone is a major supply cluster identified by LuxAlgo’s Visible Range.
Price is consolidating right at the top – signs of distribution may be forming.
2. Key Support Levels to Watch:
39,274: If the price rejects and breaks below this, a medium-term reversal could start.
37,484: High volume demand area and previous macro support – this would be the key bounce zone in case of sharp correction.
3. Bullish or Bearish?
Bullish case: Break and hold above 41,800 could trigger a squeeze toward all-time highs.
Bearish case: If the index fails to clear this supply zone and drops below 41,119, expect pullbacks to 39,274 and potentially 37,484.
4. Macro Catalyst:
Multiple U.S. economic events approaching (highlighted on chart: CPI, FOMC, etc.)
These will bring volatility – timing your entries around them is critical!
Possible Trade Setups:
Short Setup: Wait for rejection near 41,800 with a breakdown below 41,119
TP1: 39,274
TP2: 37,484
SL: Above 41,900
Long Setup: Breakout retest above 41,800 with bullish momentum
TP1: 42,500
SL: Below 41,200

Let’s debate:
Is this a bull trap or the beginning of another rally?

US30 Technical Analysis – GTE VIP Sell AlertUS30 Technical Analysis – GTE VIP Sell Alert
Price has tapped into a strong resistance zone near 41,700, where previous rejections occurred. After a sharp bullish push, momentum appears to be slowing, and the market is overextended on the 1H chart. We expect a potential retracement toward the mid-range or support zone near 41,600–41,550. Stochastic is in the overbought area, signaling a possible reversal.
Trade Idea: US30 Short ( SELL STOP )Technical Analysis Overview:
1. Daily Chart:
• Price has retraced sharply into resistance (near 41,300–41,400), rejecting the 200-day EMA zone.
• MACD still negative but turning up—suggests potential for a failed bounce.
• RSI at 55.33—approaching overbought in a corrective move, ripe for reversal.
2. 15-Min Chart:
• Bearish divergence forming on RSI with lower highs.
• MACD is turning down with momentum fading after a recent high around 41,665.
• Price has broken short-term moving average support, with momentum shifting down.
3. 3-Min Chart:
• Clear bearish structure with lower highs and lower lows.
• MACD and RSI confirm short-term weakness.
• Price hovering near local support (around 41,302), if broken, would confirm further downside.
⸻
Fundamental Context (Macro):
• FOMC & NFP results (recent) suggest continued uncertainty in interest rate direction.
• US manufacturing and employment data have shown mixed signals—equities vulnerable to downside corrections amid macro volatility.
• Seasonally, May is often a pullback month (“Sell in May”).
⸻
TRADE IDEA – SHORT US30
• Entry: 41,295 (current price at resistance zone)
• Stop-Loss (SL): 41,670 (above recent intraday high and 15-min resistance)
• Take-Profit (TP): 40,500 (prior support zone on 15-min chart)
FUSIONMARKETS:US30
US30 Breakdown May 11thWhy don't skeletons fight each other? Cuz they ain't got guts, like you if you keep making excuses. Ok let's get to work.
Price has been steadily moving upwards this past month. Right now, there seems to be a counter bearish trend, so I plan to react to the market when it gets to my key level 41,353. If price breaks and retests that level on the 1 minute, and for extra confirmation the counter trendline, I will buy it to 41,500.
If price gets to that 41,353 level and decides to break structure and trend down, then I will sell it to 41,100 level.
But like my ex, price does whatever it wants, and it could buy earlier or sell earlier then I've predicted. So, when price gets around one of my key areas (any of the horizontal lines) and decides to start making higher highs and higher lows or breaks and retest it then I'll buy. And If price decides to start making lower highs and lower lows at my key area then I'll sell it.
Have Fun with trading. Keep smiling and I promise if you look at it with positivity you will always win
Testing Trumps Theory About StocksSo, as you can see, I just kept it simple, Trump made a claim about buying stocks because this country is about to take off like a rocket. I told my wife I will check the charts. It's been a long time but ugh I think we will see a drop towards resistance before we see what he's talking about. This is the monthly I looked at it on the 3 months chart as well same things keeps popping up some pain before profit so I will be looking to buy on our way down this is the DOW but I am for sure looking for similar patterns in other stocks. But the S&P 500 Is looking the same also.
LET ME KNOW YOUR THOUGHTS BELOW.
this is a small reminder that I am not a professional and this is not investing advice I am simply giving my opinion as a fellow student in the art of trading.
Dow Jones Correction in May 2025: Key DriversDow Jones Correction in May 2025: Key Drivers
Summary: The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DIA) is under pressure and likely headed for a correction due to the Federal Reserve’s tight monetary policy, trade uncertainty from Trump’s tariffs, and weak economic data.
Key Drivers:
➖ Federal Reserve Policy: At the May 6–7 meeting, the Fed is expected to maintain the 4.25–4.5% interest rate due to persistent inflation (2.7% forecast for 2025) and a robust labor market (+177K jobs in April). This dampens hopes for rate cuts, pressuring stocks.
➖ Trump’s Tariffs: New tariffs raise inflation risks and recession fears, reducing the appeal of Dow Jones constituents like Caterpillar and Walmart.
➖ Weak GDP and Global Volatility: A 0.3% GDP contraction in Q1 2025 and declines in Asian markets (1.6–1.8%) signal global instability.
➖ Technical Indicators: DIA trades below its 200-day moving average (~420 USD), with fewer stocks above this level (down from 76% to 55% since January), indicating market weakness.
➖ Outlook: Analysts (Long Forecast) predict volatility, with a potential drop to 38,958 in May, despite an average forecast of 43,370 by month-end. Historically, corrections occur every 1.88 years, and current conditions (tariffs, inflation, GDP) heighten the likelihood of a 10–15% decline.
Target: My downside target for the Dow Jones is 38,555.00.
Current factors and historical trends strongly suggest a near-term correction.
Idea for S&P 500:

Wedge at the Edge – Will the Dow Drop from Here?Price is approaching a key supply zone between 41,800 and 42,400, where previous strong selling occurred. A rising wedge pattern is forming, suggesting a potential bearish reversal. If price fails to break above the supply zone and closes below the wedge, a breakdown could lead to a bearish move targeting the demand zone around 39,000–39,300.
Bearish Bias: Watching for rejection and breakdown confirmation for a short setup.
Key Levels:
Supply zone: 41,800 – 42,400
Demand zone: 39,000 – 39,300
Support to watch: 40,600
