NQ: ST consolidation is expectedGood day!
After the 90-day pause of the tariffs, NQ should consolidate in the ST (2-3 days) before resuming the fundamental downtrend.
The effect of CPI and PPI will be very limited whatsoever the data. However Consumer data will trigger the downtrend if this data is undershoot. Otherwise, consolidation will prevail.
The blue box should delimitate the consolidation area.

Where is the support level for Nasdaq?! Is the bloodbath over?Bearish fair value gap ranges are taking over this chart and when we rally up into them, they have been sending us down over and over.
This week we have had the advantage of a bearish gap from last week's low. This gave us clear reason to seek longs to fill the gap. Now we have a small cushion of long interest in this range after retesting the 2023 yearly candle's broken high.
As long as we remain above this yearly level--16.960ish (Using last year's low for NQ 17,570ish)-- we will see a neat consolidation and sitting upon these levels before the rally that may lead us out of this range.
That is what I expect, however, if we lose these levels, you already know we are headed to the dungeon of a true recession.
20 min breakdown:
NASDAQ Long Wave 5 Targeting Supply Zone, Then Looking to ShortI’m currently holding long positions from the end of Wave 2 (entry around 16,849). I took partial profits after Wave 3 (around 19,000–19,200) and now waiting for 4H TF Wave 4 to pull back and give a re-entry.
Once Wave 4H TF Wave 4 completes, I plan to scale back in and target the 19,500–19,900 zone.
If price reaches that zone and shows rejection, I’ll look to switch bias and short as I believe that will begin a daily Wave 2 correction to the downside.
Key levels I’m watching:
• Wave 2 support: 16,849
• Wave 3 resistance zone / TP1: 19,000 area
• Wave 5 supply zone / Final TP: 19,500–19,900
• Sell zone if confirmed reversal: 19,500–20,000
• Next short target (after confirmation): TBD once Wave 5 completes
Will update this idea as Wave 4 forms and price action confirms the next leg.
NASDAQ 100 outlook and the 90-day tariff pauseThe US has paused the highest tariffs for 90 days, but markets remain under pressure from global trade tensions, and the Nasdaq 100 remains bearish. So what are the levels we need to watch next?

NASDAQ100 - Trade Idea 10 April 2025📌 Key Points on the Chart:
Bullish Engulfing Daily (Orange Circle)
This is a candlestick pattern that suggests a possible trend reversal from downtrend to uptrend.
A big green candle fully engulfs the previous red candle → a strong sign that buyers are taking control.
Strong Low & Swing Low (Lowest Points)
These areas are considered strong support zones.
Price previously dropped to this level and quickly bounced back up → seen as a “cheap” price by Smart Money.
High Volume Spike
Notice the high volume bar when the bullish candle formed – this shows strong buying interest.
Likely that big players (institutions) are stepping in to buy.
Projected Price Movement (White Zigzag Path)
The chart suggests price may continue to rise (possibly toward the 20,000+ zone).
But first, there may be a slight pullback (cooling off) before continuing upward.
FVG (Fair Value Gap)
This is a price gap that hasn't been filled yet – price often returns to fill these gaps.
In ICT, FVG is treated as a discount or premium zone for potential entries.
50% Level (Fibonacci Retracement)
This line shows the midpoint between a previous swing high and swing low.
It often acts as a reaction zone for price – either support or resistance.
🔍 Simple Summary:
The chart is showing a potential bullish reversal.
A bullish engulfing pattern + high volume = signs of institutional buying.
Expectation: price may pull back slightly, then continue rising.
Strategy: traders might wait for a pullback into the FVG or 50% zone to look for buy entry opportunities.
Long NQ FuturesLooking for a 50% retracement back to roughly the 19300 level. Will likely be a bumpy ride up, with the first test of resistance at 18300 (minor wave A), back down to the bottom of the gap at 16900 (minor wave B), and then back up to 19300 (minor wave C).
Expecting to reverse short once 19300 is reached, but will evaluate further if and when target is reached.

Us100/Nasdaq bearish moveUsing the Rubic cube strategy in a short summary Im looking for price to rise up to my short horizontal line that I've place right above current price then drop but I'd only look for entry at the green horizontal line.A 1 hour close below that would signal to me that price is indeed continuing with the bearish move.

European and Japanese stocks fell on rising trade tensions, while U.S. futures remain steady ahead of the open. According to Goldman Sachs’s John Flood, the S&P 500 has dropped to a level where long-term investors are beginning to step in.

NAS100 - Potential TargetsDear Fellow Traders,
NASDAQ is in a sell-off phase - Extreme bearish behavior!
I have indicated a "Potential Reversal" Zone.
I am personally not looking for any potential entry at this stage.
(If I was scalping, I won't even consider buying - although they do look very inviting)
PLEASE HAVE A LOOK AT MY HIGH TIME FRAME ANALYSIS: Posted on March the 4th
Feel free to ask if anything is unclear.
Thank you for taking the time to study my analysis.
THOUGHTS ON NAS100NASDAQ 1W - As you can see above this is my higher timeframe outlook on this pair, I want to see price correct itself now trading us up and into the area of Supply I have marked out above.
In doing so we ought to see strength in the USD. This will only be temporary just to clear any remaining orders that may be left before we can have a larger move to the downside.
Once price does eventually trade us higher up and into the Supply Zone above, this is when we can begin looking to take this market short. Using this as an area to enter in from.
We want to see price trade in, clear orders and then begin showing signs of a distribution, this is removing those buy orders and introducing sell orders, giving us the S&D flip we want.
92% Win Rate Strategy Using Gann’s Planetary LongitudeHave you ever wondered how some traders seem to anticipate market reversals with uncanny precision, almost as if they can see into the future?
Well, what if I told you that the secret doesn’t lie in guesswork or traditional retail indicators, but in the heavens themselves?
Let me walk you through one of the most powerful forecasting tools in Gann's arsenal—the Planetary Longitude Method and how I used it to identify the exact price level from which the market reversed.
The Power of Planetary Time Cycles in Trading
This technique isn’t based on patterns, trendlines, or lagging indicators. It’s rooted in precise planetary time cycles, the same natural laws that govern the movement of celestial bodies.
Gann believed the markets were not chaotic but deeply connected to universal rhythm and planetary motion. According to his planetary longitude method, each planet holds a specific degree of longitude at any given time. These degrees can be directly mapped onto price charts, turning astronomical data into actionable trade setups.
When price meets planetary longitude, something extraordinary happens. These degrees act as invisible support and resistance levels—ones that retail traders never see. They are silent yet powerful markers of change, and because they are rooted in cosmic cycles, they give you a strategic edge in timing your trades.
Why These Degrees Matter
As a trader, what you’re truly looking for is reaction zones, areas where price is likely to pause, reverse, or accelerate. When planetary time and market price converge at a particular degree, it creates what Gann called a "vibrational point", a moment of energetic alignment. These are high-probability zones where you can anticipate market turning points with accuracy.
By tracking the longitudes of key planets, such as the Sun, Moon, Mars, Jupiter, or Saturn—you can identify these critical junctures. Each planet brings its own cycle, its own tempo. For deeper, longer-term reversals, I often rely on the slower-moving planets like Pluto, while for short-term setups, I look at the faster ones like the Moon or Mars.
How I Forecasted the US100 Reversal from 19,384.6
Now, let’s get practical.
In this recent example, I was closely watching the US100 index, where I anticipated a potential reversal around the level of 19,384.6. Was this just another support/resistance zone? Absolutely not.
Here’s how I arrived at this precise level using Gann’s Planetary Longitude Technique:
First, I took the price level of 19,384.6 and converted it into degrees. To do this, I simply subtracted 360 repeatedly from the price until I arrived at a number less than 360. This process is based on the 360° circle of the zodiac—once the price cycles through the full circle multiple times, what's left is the vibrational degree associated with that price. In this case, the price level of 19,384.6 converted to approximately 304.6°.
Then, I checked the planetary position of Pluto which was 303.55° in longitude.
This created a near-perfect alignment between Pluto’s time cycle and the vibrational price degree. When planetary time meets price, it forms a cosmic convergence zone—a point of natural balance where the market is highly likely to react. So, I wasn’t just guessing—I was waiting for that moment of planetary resonance.
And as the chart clearly shows, the market reacted sharply the moment it touched 19,384.6, confirming the sensitivity of this degree. It wasn’t random. It was a harmonic response, echoing the laws of cosmic vibration that Gann so strongly emphasized.
This is a real-time example of how combining planetary time with price geometry can give you a decisive trading edge, especially in forecasting major turning points.
Why This Method Works
The market respects these planetary degrees not because of mysticism, but because it moves in cycles—natural cycles that repeat. The alignment of price with planetary longitude often marks pivot points in the market.
And this method doesn’t just help with identifying reversals. It also enhances your entry and exit timing, allowing you to trade with confidence, knowing you're aligned with the larger cosmic structure that influences all things—including financial markets.
Final Thoughts
This is just one example of how planetary geometry, when applied correctly, can lead to powerful trade setups. While Pluto offers long-term signals, don’t underestimate the value of the Moon, Mars, or Jupiter for shorter timeframes. The market dances to their rhythm too.
And once you learn to listen to that rhythm, you'll never look at price the same way again.
Nasdaq Pending Short: Completion of Wave 1 of CLike I mentioned in the video, we have completed a 5-wave structure for wave 1 of C. We are currently in wave 2 of C. And while this is a long-then-short idea, I feel that the risk to go long at this point of my posting is too risky, so it's better to wait for a short opportunity.
