NASDAQ 100: Bear Market in Sight?The NASDAQ 100 has officially entered correction territory, now trading more than -10% below its most recent high. Even more concerning: it's just 5% away from a full-blown bear market, which is defined as a drop of -20% or more.
As seen in the chart, we’ve broken below the -15% threshold and are rapidly approaching the critical 18,113 level, which would mark the -20% mark. If price action fails to hold the current level and momentum continues downward, we could be on the verge of a major shift in market sentiment.
If the bear market threshold is crossed, it may trigger panic selling or forced liquidation.
We should prepare for increased volatility and monitor this level closely. A bounce here could be a buying opportunity — but a breakdown could open the door to a deeper downturn.
Will buyers step in... or are we heading deeper into bearish territory?
NASDAQ 100 – Buy OpportunityIn this technical analysis of the NASDAQ 100 (NDX), an ideal entry zone has been identified after the price rebounded from a strong support level.
Entry Zone: Around 19,164.75
Target Price: 22,152.50
Stop Loss: 18,913.75
Risk/Reward Ratio: 1:14.41

Today analysis for Nasdaq, Oil, and GoldNasdaq
The Nasdaq closed sharply lower, forming a long bearish candlestick, as recession fears intensified. The index fell toward the lower Bollinger Band on the daily chart, while the MACD moved closer to the signal line, indicating a correction.
On the weekly chart, the Nasdaq faced resistance slightly above the 5-week MA, forming an upper wick and closing lower. The MACD is falling steeply, and the signal line is also in a downtrend, suggesting the potential for an overshooting move downward before forming a bottom. From a daily perspective, key support zones to watch are around 19,000 (first level) and 18,500 (second level). The MACD has not yet crossed below the signal line, but if a bearish crossover (death cross) occurs, a strong third wave of selling pressure could emerge. Therefore, caution is advised for long positions. However, since the MACD has not yet confirmed a bearish crossover, there is also the possibility of a rebound off the signal line. It is crucial to wait for a confirmed trend reversal before taking long positions.
On the 240-minute chart, strong sell signals have emerged, leading to a steep decline. The current price action resembles the movement seen on February 21, but since the bottom is not yet clear, it is best to adopt a conservative approach. For short positions, the 3-day moving average can be used as a reference level. For long positions, the lower Bollinger Band may provide a short-term buying opportunity. As today marks the last trading day of the month, watch closely to see if the Nasdaq reaches the 20-month MA or ends the month with a lower wick.
Crude Oil
Oil closed lower, facing resistance at $70. It has fallen back below the 5-day MA, trapping the price within a range-bound structure. On the weekly chart, oil was rejected at the 10-week MA, and since the MACD has not yet formed a bullish crossover, there is a chance that oil could retest its previous double-bottom level. A consolidation phase between the 5-week and 10-week MAs appears likely.
On the daily chart, as the price corrected, the MACD began converging with the signal line. If oil retraces to around $68, a short-term buying opportunity may arise. For oil to resume its uptrend, it needs to pull back toward $68, rebound, and break above $70 with strong momentum. However, this move would likely require a global catalyst. On the 240-minute chart, both the MACD and signal line remain above the zero line, suggesting a higher probability of a rebound and a golden cross formation. Overall, the best approach is to focus on dip-buying opportunities during this phase.
Gold
Gold closed higher, breaking to a new all-time high on the daily chart. Last week, there was a possibility of a pullback toward the 5-week MA, but the MACD has turned upward, surpassing its previous high, reducing the likelihood of a bearish divergence and increasing the probability of further upside. However, since gold has not yet tested the 5-week MA, a short-term correction remains a possibility. On the daily chart, buying opportunities were available at the 3-day MA following a strong bullish candle. A pullback to the 5-day MA within the next few days remains possible, and if this happens, it could present another dip-buying opportunity. Based on wave analysis, gold could target around 3,216. To confirm this upside scenario, the daily chart must show stronger bullish momentum, eliminating the risk of MACD divergence.
On the 240-minute chart, gold has been experiencing strong upward momentum, making it a buy-on-dips market. However, for a more comfortable long position, the MACD needs to exceed its previous peak. Overall, a long-only strategy remains preferable. For short positions, it is difficult to pinpoint the exact peak, so strict stop-loss management is essential. This week, key economic events include the ISM Manufacturing & Services PMIs and Friday's U.S. jobs report, which could increase gold's volatility. Stay cautious.
Today marks the final trading session of March. Tariff-related news and gold’s record highs indicate rising market volatility. Stay adaptive to the market’s movements and trade safely as we close the monthly candle.
Wishing you a successful trading day!

Yearly Candle on NQ 2025I believe what we're seeing right now is simply the market printing the “open low” of the yearly candle. The recent dip seems driven by short-term fear surrounding the new tariffs, but in my view, this is just noise. Long-term, this sets up a bullish scenario.
Businesses won’t adjust overnight—it takes time to shift operations away from high-tariff regions. But as that transition unfolds, we’ll likely see improved margins and stronger fundamentals emerge.
From a technical standpoint, I’m watching for a key reversal after price revisits the order block. If we get that reaction, it could mark the beginning of a broader move higher. This looks like manipulation, not distribution.

NQ Range (03-31-25)NAZ on the edge of the Danger Zone, in the Overnight. Keep in mind that the new limit down is -7% and the NAZ is -1% now. Yellow circles are lower targets and white arrow is old range, I would expect a DZ hold to pop back up in range. O/N rig team should show up and lift it or maybe they have changed their tune (after 2-3 years) and will take it over the Edge. Out again next week, will post updates when I can.
#202513 - priceactiontds - weekly update - nasdaq e-mini futuresGood Evening and I hope you are well.
comment: Last week I wrote that we need a proper channel down and the past week was the worst case scenario for the bulls. We could not even get to the 50% retracement and turned down violently again. There is a small chance for the bulls to make this a double bottom and go sideways but as of now that is very very low probability. More likely is that we have formed the top of the channel and will get a big second leg down to 18000 or lower. If we go down below 19000, my thesis is that we go down for 2 more weeks and then earnings will decide on the next impulse. For now the technicals are clear, market could not even retrace 50%, we turned around the daily 20ema and volume on the down move is picking up again. Everything points to a bear trend.
current market cycle: strong bear trend
key levels: 19000 - 20500
bull case: Bulls running for the exits. They have some previous support at the 2024-09 low 19073 but that is most likely not stopping this freight train down. Next big support is at 18000/18100 which is my W3 target. Only question now is if we find buyers tomorrow who want to keep the market above 19000. It’s not impossible that we could see 1-2 more days of stalling around 19000 but given the current structure the selling is just too strong to look for any longs.
Invalidation is below 19000.
bear case: Bears have now erased about a year of gains and we are heading lower. Friday was another strong sell signal and bears now want to close the monthly bar at the very low to also produce a huge sell signal on the weekly and monthly charts. The selling is strong enough for at least a decent sized second leg and the measured move leads to 16200 which is between my year-end-special target of 17500 and the bull trend line from the covid lows. Plan for the next 2 weeks is the W3 and W4 where I expect W3 to hit 18000 and W4 could retest 19000.
Invalidation is above 20600.
short term: Clear bear trend now once we drop below 19000. W3 should get us to around 18000 while W4 could be good for a retest of 19000. No longs for me what so ever. Big bear trend line from 22450 has to hold.
medium-long term - Update from 2024-03-16: My most bearish target for 2025 was 17500ish, given in my year-end special. Clear W1 of this bear trend. Market now has to close below 19000 to confirm W3. Depending on how deep W3 goes, W5 will either reach only around 17500 or the bull trend line around 16000.
current swing trade: None
chart update: Added most likely upper bear trend line and adjusted the 5-wave series.
$NQ IdeaWhen analyzing the NQ weekly chart, we observe that the price has consumed internal liquidity in the premium region of the range and closed in a way that favors the continuation of the bearish movement. Given this, we believe the next **Draw on Liquidity** will be the weekly double bottom located just below.
However, since the market has experienced a sharp decline without corrections, there is a possibility of buying opportunities before the downtrend resumes. As we are in a discounted region on the weekly chart, the price may seek momentum toward the premium region, capturing **buyside liquidity** as fuel for the continuation of the bearish movement.
It is important to highlight that we must wait for the market to open and observe its initial movement to better define our trading strategy.
Nasdaq Swing Trade – Bullish Setup with Strong FundamentalA confluence of fundamental and technical factors supports a long position on Nasdaq. COT data, retail positioning, seasonality, GDP, SPMI, inflation, and interest rates all align with a bullish outlook. Technically, price is in a discounted zone relative to the monthly low’s anchored VWAP, presenting an optimal long entry within the overall bullish trend. My target levels are set based on risk-reward principles, aiming to capture trend continuation if momentum sustains.
Nasdaq Futures Potential Short OpportunitiesThe Nasdaq Futures' brief rebound from the critical 19345 support was decisively rejected at 20458, marking a continuation of bearish sentiment.
Current Scenario: Now, testing immediate support at 19857 failure here opens the pathway downward to subsequent supports at 19716 and 19646, ultimately retesting the critical low at 19345.
Resistance Levels: Clear resistance lies at 20458. Breaking this could temporarily shift sentiment but faces significant challenges amid rising volatility.

powellstanding way back, the nasdaq is looking horrible... i thinks augs low will hold for a bounce back up... i think current ath will be in for awhile....... we have our 61.8% fib retracement down at 15k for a possible swing to new aths! macro cup and handle aswell and macro abcs riding beautifully along our band... ofc this is just skepticism on a 1 day chart... it will take MAJOR news for a push near 15k
2025-03-27 - priceactiontds - daily update - nasdaqGood Evening and I hope you are well.
comment: Many potential trend lines that market could respect tomorrow. We are in an expanding triangle, a broad bull channel and the big bear trend on the daily chart. No idea what we get tomorrow so I lean neutral around 20000.
current market cycle: strong bear trend but currently in W2 (above 20700 that thesis drops to a 50/50 chance)
key levels: 19600 - 20700
bull case: Bulls surprised me with the huge buying around 20000. Yesterdays selling was good enough to expect lower prices, so stopping at 20000 wasn’t what I hoped for. Bulls turned the market neutral and if they continue with higher highs above 20200, they could get a breakout to 20400 or 20500. My w2 target still remains 20700. Past 50 trading ranges range is 19600 - 20500 and 50% of it is 20060 and we are at 20004. Good enough. Market is in balance.
Invalidation is below 19600.
bear case: Bears printed consecutive bear bars on the 4h chart but they barely make new lows on them. We could see a strong move below 20000 but for now I would need a strong signal and follow-through before I join the bears below 20000. I also think most bears will give up above 20200 and wait for market to get closer to 300 or 400 again. Daily chart shows it the best. We just closed the gap from Monday and market is now free to do whatever.
short term: Neutral 20000. Bears are slightly favored to continue the bigger bear trend but as of now, selling around or below 20000 does not make sense.
medium-long term - Update from 2024-03-16: My most bearish target for 2025 was 17500ish, given in my year-end special. We don’t know if we have printed the W1 of the new bear trend or repeat the pattern from 2024, where we sold of very strong to reverse even more strongly and make new all time highs. Market needs a bounce and around 20000/20500 we will see the real battle for the next weeks.
trade of the day: Tough day if you are not comfortable with trading ranges and it was absolutely not clear that we get a range-bound day. Bull reversal from the US open was likely the best trade since it was very strong without much uncertainty.
