Will USTEC Continue Its Rallies Amid Better Market Sentiment?Macro approach:
- USTEC advanced modestly this week, supported by upbeat corporate earnings and resilience in economic data amid ongoing policy uncertainty.
- The index benefited from strong expected results in major tech firms such as Microsoft (MSFT) and Nvidia (NVDA), as top giant AI leadership, helping to bolster sentiment despite lingering concerns about tariffs and Fed policy direction.
- US macro data showed sticky inflation in key categories, robust retail sales, and falling jobless claims. This prompted the Fed to retain its cautious stance on rate cuts while markets reassessed policy expectations. Policy-related headlines and manufacturing sector developments also partly drove market volatility.
- USTEC could remain sensitive to incoming tech earnings, the 29-30 Jul Fed meeting, and potential US tariff announcements in early Aug. Persistent inflation and any surprises in central bank communication may drive volatility in the sessions ahead.
Technical approach:
- USTEC trended higher and created a new record high. The price is above both EMAs, indicating a strong bullish momentum.
- If USTEC stays above the support at 22900, the price may continue toward the 78.6% Fibonacci Extension at around 23867.
- On the contrary, breaking below the support at 22900 and EMA21 may prompt a deeper correction to retest the following support at 22000.

NAS100USD trade ideas
Here’s a fresh Nasdaq100 analysis I’ve put together for you.Hey Guys,
Here’s a fresh Nasdaq100 analysis I’ve put together for you.
I’ve marked the buy zone between 23,252 and 23,240. If price dips into that range, I’m anticipating a potential move upward toward 23,294.
Your likes and support are my biggest source of motivation to keep sharing these insights.
Huge thanks to everyone backing me with a thumbs-up!
NAS100 Bigger Picture. Uptrend to be resumedLooking at the current structure through the lens of a trend trading approach, what we saw on NAS100 is more than a simple price bounce, it’s a trend continuation trading within a high-volatility environment. As price is approaching a key resistance level, how price is behaving around this dynamic trendline will be key.
This recent retracement and rejection happening near what we can call a demand zone cluster, was confirmed by a beautiful bounce off the support range. And right now price is respecting the upper and lower bounds nicely.
What happens next? Price is showing signs of bullish exhaustion, but the higher-timeframe structure supports a continuation.
My projected target is towards the upper resistance line, that’s my 23,100 zone as shown.
Nasdaq Ascending Trend has been broken.Good night traders.
With Tuesday & today's move. NQ has broken the ascending trend, and retested the highs.
A total of 107 daily candles, 7,000pips move.
Reasons for taking this trade:
Current monthly candle has 2.9m volume, compared to a 6m & 7million from last 2 months. With only 8 days missing to end the month, how to fill all that pending volume?
Ascending trend has been broken and retested.
Expect a deep correction, around 2000-2400-2600 pips. There is correlation between 38.2 Fibo level.
Last week there was a manipulation with Powell dismiss rumor on Wednesday, next day on Thursday NQ rallied to the upside. Today being also Wednesday we saw a huge rejection to the upside, but there is no continuation.
DXY reaching bottom, + has a deeper short trend initiation, starting on January 13.
Trade will be validated if NQ creates a LL followed by a LH within the next 2 days.
What do you think of this analysis?
Thank you.
Enjoy
NASDAQ100| - Bullish Bias RemainsPrice didn’t give me the deep candle retrace into my 30M OB — just a wick tap — but that was enough. That wick shows me smart money touched in.
Dropped to the LTF and got my shift in structure confirming bullish intent.
Now I’m locked in, watching for price to sweep a 5M sell-side liquidity pocket into a clean LTF order block for the next entry.
🎯 Target: Short-term 5M highs
🚀 Bias: Still bullish unless structure breaks
This is a patience game now — execution only after confirmation.
US100 Analysis Report (15m Chart)1. 🔍 Liquidity Grab (Sell-side taken)
Price swept below 23,040 and sharply reversed from 22,978, clearing out weak sellers.
2. 📈 Break of Structure (BOS)
A bullish BOS occurred after price broke above 23,162, confirming short-term bullish intent.
3. 🟪 Rejection Zone
Price is now testing 23,287.42 — a supply/resistance zone. Watch for signs of rejection or breakout.
4. 📊 Bullish Scenario
If price breaks 23,287 cleanly, expect next moves towards 23,387 and then 23,482.
5. 📉 Bearish Setup Possibility
Rejection from 23,287 could pull price back to 23,162 or 23,040 before the next move.
NSDQ100 another bullish flag developing ?Donald Trump has agreed a new trade deal with Japan, setting 15% tariffs on US imports like cars and launching a $550 billion fund to boost investment in the US. This is lower than his earlier 25% tariff threat. Other allies saw mixed outcomes—the Philippines got a small tariff cut, while Canada’s talks stalled. Goldman Sachs now expects the US baseline tariff rate to rise to 15%.
Trump also suggested that Fed Chair Jerome Powell may not stay in his role much longer, and he’s considering removing capital gains tax on home sales, which could affect the housing market.
Separately, a Chinese-linked cyberattack breached the US nuclear weapons agency, though no classified data was stolen. Meanwhile, SpaceX’s investor documents flagged Elon Musk’s political activity as a potential risk as the company targets a $400 billion valuation.
Conclusion for Nasdaq 100:
The Nasdaq 100 faces short-term uncertainty due to rising trade tariffs, Fed leadership questions, and geopolitical risks. While some US-focused investments could benefit, traders should stay cautious as policy and global tensions evolve.
