Why I Took a Short Position on the US100(high risk)Even though I typically avoid shorting indices, especially in the current macroeconomic environment characterized by a resilient labor market and increasing likelihood of a soft landing, my trading decisions are heavily rooted in technical analysis. While the broader economic context leans towards stability, the charts presented a setup that I found compelling enough to take the risk. The position, admittedly, is high-risk, with a significant probability of hitting my stop-loss. However, I believe that the potential reward justifies the calculated risk, given the structure on the chart. If the stop is triggered but the broader technical context remains unchanged, I am prepared to re-enter the position and risk an additional 2-3 stops. My approach relies on consistency and discipline, so as long as the technical indicators and levels I evaluate continue to align, I am comfortable with this risk. This trade is more of a strategic decision than a fundamental one. It’s driven by my confidence in the patterns and levels I see, not a bet against the underlying strength of the index or economy. It's a reminder that, sometimes, even in favorable macroeconomic conditions, the charts can tell a different story worth exploring.

Short Term Update: US 100 Index in Focus Over Non-Farm Payrolls Growth stocks within the US 100 index have sprung back into life this week, after a period of under performance, when compared to industrials and small cap stocks. The US 100 has added around 3% over the previous 4 trading days, supported by a rally in megacap stocks, led by Nvidia, after Fed Chairman Jerome Powell talked positively about the current state of the US economy in a discussion on Wednesday evening. This view has so far been supported by data readings across the week. Now, with US Non-farm Payrolls due for release this afternoon at 13.30, all eyes are on whether this eagerly awaited reading will show a labour market that reflects a strong economy, while still allowing the Fed to cut interest rates again on December 18th. Ahead of US Employment Data: Technical Update As the dust settled on the US 100’s sharp acceleration into the November 11th all-time high, as it was at that time, following the Trump victory in the US election, a correction materialised, as a reaction to over-extended upside extremes. However, this decline proved to be limited in nature, and buyers were found again around 20309, the November 19th low. Importantly, this also tested the uptrend in price activity evident since August 5th lows, suggesting it may well continue to be a relevant support moving forward. As we approach what is likely to be the next important market sentiment driver in the shape of the latest payrolls data, price strength has again materialised from the uptrend support, to post new all-time highs at 21512 on December 4th. While the uptrend, currently at 20849 within today’s price activity, has been confirmed as a possible support focus, equally important is today’s potential resistance level, standing at 21687. This is the upper trendline connecting the highs dating back to August 1st. So, the levels we may want to watch over the data release are in place, and while it is important to note that closing breaks of these are no guarantee of future price movement, a confirmed breach of support or resistance may result in further price movement in the direction of the break, but this is very much dependant of future price trends. What are potential resistance levels if 21687 gives way on a closing basis? Closes above the 21687 trendline resistance would again see new all-time highs posted, so, we can then turn to Fibonacci extension levels to help provide areas of interest where there may be potential for sellers to be encountered. Using the July 11th to August 5th last sell-off as the measure, the 38.2% extension stands at 22151, and 61.8% point at 23010. Just because trendline resistance breaks have in the past resulted in further price strength is no guarantee it will do so again, but if strength does develop after payrolls and 21687 is breached, these levels could be areas where upside momentum may slow, or even be held. And Supports? As we have said earlier, the 20849 uptrend is potentially the first support focus within any negative reaction to the data and closing breaks maybe the catalyst for further price declines. If such moves do materialise, it's possible it may trigger further price weakness, with the 20309 November 19th low next possible support. If this in turn gives way, it might prompt tests of 19887/19904 support, a combination of November 4th session low and 38.2% Fibonacci retracement of the August/December strength.

1-hr NASDAQ 100: The Leading Tech Index Might Correct In 5 business days US100 jumped with more than 600 points. We use patterns like the Golden Cross, where a short term MA breaks above a longer term MA, to determine the strenght and the direction of the momentum. The classic buy signal, triggered by the Golden Cross, emerged last week and since then buyers in the NASDAQ generated fantastic profits! For the past few hours today however, we notice a possible slow down in the upward momentum. This is only normal, because many of these buyers are going to start selling, to take profit, after the rally. We use Fibonacci to establish where the price might correct to and we usually focus on the critical levels 38% Fib and 50% Fib. Tech stocks are hot, rates are dropping and on the long run it is very possible that the index will continue its upward march. On the short term however, its absolutely normal to see some pullbacks. We assume that buyers could secure better risk to reward on their trades, if they target a lower entry, possibly at 21 250, which aligns with the important 38% Fibonacci retracement. This also opens the room to short sellers, who wish to bet on a short term drop and take this level as a potential profit taking zone.

NASDAQ: Technology Leads Amid Challenges and OpportunitiesNASDAQ: Technology Leads Amid Challenges and Opportunities The NASDAQ index remains a focal point for investors, driven by the strength of technology and artificial intelligence (AI) stocks, while navigating regulatory hurdles and mixed economic data. Here's a closer look at the factors shaping the index's performance and its outlook for the coming weeks. --- Key Factors Driving NASDAQ Tech Rally and AI Optimism NASDAQ has seen robust gains, fueled by the dominance of tech stocks. Investors continue to bet on the long-term potential of AI, boosting companies like Microsoft and Meta. However, Microsoft faces regulatory scrutiny from the FTC over its AI software sales, which could weigh on short-term performance. Meanwhile, Meta, led by Mark Zuckerberg, is adapting its strategies to align with the evolving political landscape, including engagement with the Trump administration's policies. Strong Corporate Performance - Salesforce reported Q3 revenue of $9.44 billion, exceeding expectations, though adjusted EPS disappointed. - Microsoft and other tech giants continue to invest heavily in AI, supporting long-term investor optimism. Despite some challenges, the technology sector remains a key growth driver for NASDAQ, supported by innovation and strong demand for digital products and services. --- Macroeconomic Data and NASDAQ Mixed Signals from the U.S. Economy - ISM Services PMI fell to 52.1, below expectations of 55.7, indicating slower growth in the service sector, a key driver of consumer demand for technology. - Durable goods orders rose 0.3%, meeting expectations and signaling economic stability. - Construction spending increased by 0.4%, reflecting robust investment activity. While these figures present a mixed picture, stability in other areas, such as the labor market (JOLTS job openings at 7.744 million in October), provides a solid foundation for the market. Federal Reserve Policy and Its Impact on Technology The Federal Reserve is slowly pivoting toward a more dovish stance. An anticipated rate cut in December, currently priced at a 74% likelihood, could benefit technology stocks, which are sensitive to borrowing costs. The Fed forecasts gradual disinflation toward a 2% target by 2025, potentially creating favorable conditions for the tech sector in the long term. --- Seasonality and NASDAQ December has historically been a strong month for tech-heavy indices like NASDAQ, driven by: - Seasonal consumer spending, particularly on electronics and digital services. - End-of-year portfolio rebalancing by investors. - Optimism surrounding technological advancements and innovations. The **Fear & Greed Index**, currently at 56, indicates a sentiment skewed toward greed, often a precursor to further short-term market gains. --- NASDAQ Outlook: Technology at the Forefront As a leader in the technology space, NASDAQ has strong fundamentals to end the year on a high note. Robust demand for AI-related technologies, stable economic data, and Federal Reserve support create a positive backdrop for the index. However, investors must remain cautious about potential risks, including: - Regulatory challenges for tech giants. - Geopolitical tensions impacting global supply chains. - Uneven progress in disinflation, which could prolong restrictive monetary policies. With optimism surrounding technology and potential monetary easing, NASDAQ remains an attractive choice for long-term investors. However, key events such as quarterly earnings and further Federal Reserve decisions will significantly influence the index's trajectory. For now, the tech rally seems well-supported, but vigilance is essential.

US 100 Trade LogUS 100 Buy SIgnals Two potential long opportunities have been identified, but caution is advised due to the possibility of stop runs. The market could easily disrupt both trades, so this requires close observation and adherence to the system. Discretionary judgment will play a role here, but the focus remains on structured analysis. Trade Setup : 1. Entry Zones : Buy within the 1H Fair Value Gap (FVG) or the 4H Fair Value Gap (FVG). 2. Risk Parameters : - First Position: 0.5% risk - Second Position: 1% risk 3. Stop-Loss Size : Fixed at 90 points for both trades. 4. Risk-Reward Ratio (RRR) : 1:2 for both positions. 5. Caution : Be wary of potential stop hunts in these volatile zones. Monitor closely for signs of market manipulation or sudden reversals. I am also weary of the strong divergences on both the MACD and the CVD. So be careful with risk assessment today.

Nasdaq Intraday Review - Wednesday 4 Dec 2024I trade Nasdaq exclusively Trading in GMT time zone Sharing my post day review and analysis in case it can help you! Did my analysis at +- 5:30 am GMT (00:30 am EST) Economic news - ADP Nonfarm Employment Change @13:15 News - None Directional bias - BUY Morning analysis: M TF - very bullish W TF - very bullish, we are now in all time high territory again D TF - D candle had closed higher that previous high, testament of the bullish sentiment 4H TF - very bullish, 4H EMA is far down, so if price retraces it could be a long way down before price finds the dynamic support of the 4H EMA As the day progressed: Noted a rising wedge pattern form as marked by the blue lines. Price broke the market pattern upwards and came back down to retest the top line of the pattern. With price being at an all time high, it could easily be assumed that price will make a huge retracement. In the past, I would have been eagerly ready to place a sell because it's at an all time high and "has to come down"(*). I have lost a lot of money in the past, trying to decide for the market, what it should do. Looking at this market pattern, the way price broke upwards, re-tested and closed a green candle HIGHER. It seemed to me price wanted to continue upwards. From years of screen time, I also know that if price is very bullish (like at all time highs) it can continue higher for much longer than one would expect. I have also seen that sometimes, price will continue to push for the previous day's TP's. So because price was also rejecting the TP1 from the day before and closing higher, I felt that bulls wanted to push for TP2. I entered a small buy position at the hand icon. Price shot all the way up to TP2. I closed just before market open at the top hand icon and made a cool 870 pips. I closed because I was "sure" market open would retrace and wanted to lock in my profits. So even though preaching at (*) in the text above, I was still a victim of this mentality that "price has to come down" :) But anyway, I am still happy with my trading today. In the long ago past, I probably would have taken a sell just because price "has to come down after all time high". In the not-so-long-ago past, I probably would have sat out and been too scared to take a buy, even though I saw the signal. But today, I took the signal, albeit with a small position. #progress So just a reminder, trading is a long and slow game of patience and repetition (or at least for me). Keep going, keep consistent and you will see progress. In the beginning your goal should be to survive and live to trade another day. Get in as many hours of screen time as you can...and just keep going. ​If I were to advise a beginner, I would say: 1. Learn as much as you can about candles, market patterns and timeframe confluence (use baby pips.com for an excellent free resource) 2. Have 3 x display screens on your desk. On one screen, have the 1H TF displayed, on the second screen, display a split between the 4H TF and the D TF. On the third screen, display a split between the 15min and 30min TF. 3. Stare at your screens for hours and hours a day! Haha! Screen time is the most valuable experience you can get. 4. Don't demo trade for too long. Trading with real money changes the game. So trade with the smallest possible position size available eg. 0.01 and just try to survive to the next day. 5. Start seeing results after a few years (not what everyone wants to hear because trading is "fast, easy money", but that is the truth for the majority of traders) ​All the best! :) Stats: The total move for the day was 2'000 pips I captured 870 pips / 44 % of the total move (need to improve) Abbreviations: TF = timeframe TP = take profit 1H = 1 hour 4H = 4 hour D = day W = week M = month S&R = support & resistance H&S = head & shoulders EMA = exponential moving average SL = stop loss
