S&P500: Identical so far with 2018/20. October rally possible.S&P500 just turned bullish on its 1D technical outlook (RSI = 57.810, MACD = 53.820, ADX = 46.107) and that should give a new boost to the already bullish 1W timeframe (RSI = 63.805, MACD = 167.870, ADX = 40.687), which showcases the long term trend. And that long term price action can't be shown more effectively than on the 1W timeframe. We have spotted that the index is repeating the 2018-2020 trend.
Starting with a Channel Down under the 1D MA50, the index recovered massively and when it slowed down on a Channel Up, the 1W RSI turned ranged. We are now where the past fractal started rising aggressively again on the October 21st 2019 1W MACD Bullish Cross, as last week it completed a new such Cross. With the support of the 1W MA50, it is more likely now to see a strong rally to the 2.5 Fibonacci extension, where the 2020 fractal abruptly stopped with the COVID market meltdown, which is an event that can't be put into chart analysis.
This pattern shows that we have a clear target for early 2025 on the 2.5 Fib (TP = 6,500).

DOW JONES: Small pullback will offer a buy opportunity.Dow Jones is about to turn neutral on the 1D technical outlook (RSI = 57.040, MACD = 399.580, ADX = 38.469) as it crossed below its 4H MA50, withi the 4H RSI already on a bearish divergence, pointing to a short term correction. We expect that to be on or a little under the 4H MA200 and then rebound (over the 0.5 Fibonacci level) like the September 11th low. Like then, we are targeting the 1.236 Fibonacci extension (TP = 43,200).

NASDAQ: New buy level approaching.Nasdaq has almost turned neutral again on its 1D technical outlook (RSI = 55.199, MACD = 255.840, ADX = 43.908), which is gradually starting to wave a buy signal again as the price almost hit the 4H MA200. Technically if the 4H RSI approaches the oversold level of 30.000, it is the first buy entry inside the Channel Up. We already have a 4H Golden Cross in our hands. Expect at least a +15.55% rise (TP = 21,150) to complete this bullish wave.

S&P500: Bullish until the end of the year.Excellent bullish technicals on its 1D outlook for the S&P500 (RSI = 64.960, MACD = 69.000, ADX = 26.170), despite turning mostly sideways in the past trading days. However, having reached the HH trendline, we can see from the past two similar patterns that a consolidation is normal and as long as the 1D MA50 holds, the index is more likely to continue the uptrend. We are expecting a similar +15.00% rise (TP = 6,200) to close the year out.

GBPJPY: Inverse Head and Shoulders calls the bottom.GBPJPY got oversold on its 1D technical outlook (RSI = 28.124, MACD = -0.770, ADX = 29.222) as it was rejected today on the 1D MA50. On Sep 16th it touched the bottom of the long term Channel Up and rebounded, while the 1D RSI has been on a bullish divergence. We expect this bottom to be in the form of an Inverse Head and Shoulders. We are aiming for the 1D MA200 and the 0.5 Fibonacci level (TP = 150.500).

NASDAQ: Short term bullish if the 1H MA50 holdsNasdaq turned on excellent bullish technicals on the 1D timeframe (RSI = 63.446, MACD = 268.010, ADX = 43.526) and that sets the tone for a strong medium term continuation. On the short term 1H timeframe however, we had a strong pullback today of -1.75%, the strongest inside the the two week Channel Up, but along the lines of the previous two. It managed to reach the 1H MA50 and is consolidating on it.
The 1H MA50 has been holding for the past week and as long as it continues, this will be the best buy opportunity to aim for a new +3.30% rise (TP = 20,600). If it breaks however, the pattern is negated, so keep the SL tight around pattern limits.

DOW JONES: At the top of the six month Channel Up.Even though Dow Jones has reached the top of its Channel Up pattern, it remains on very balanced bullish technicals on the 1D time-frame (RSI = 62.120, MACD = 487.030, ADX = 32.488). Our trading plan will be based upon breakouts. As long as the price remains under the top of the Channel Up and over the dashed trendline of the August wave, it is a no action (do nothing). If it crosses above the top of the Channel Up, it's a buy (TP = 43,500) as most likely we will see an extension of the wave to a new +8.28% rise. If the price crosses under the dashed trendline, its a sell (TP = 40,900) to the 1D MA50 at least.

S&P500: Aiming at 6,000 before the elections.The S&P500 index is on a very healthy bullish technical 1D outlook (RSI = 64.688, MACD = 69.140, ADX = 44.589) which indicates that the rebound that started on the September 6th low should be extended. The volatility on the 4H RSI indicates that as long as the 4H MA200 supports, we will see a rally similar to June's and in fact we should symmetrically be on a same level as the June 14th consolidation. We are aiming for the -0.618 Fibonacci extension like June's rally (TP = 6,000) before the U.S. elections.

NASDAQ: Clear path to 21,150. Checked all bullish signals.Nasdaq is on very healthy bullish 1D technicals (RSI = 60.054, MACD = 172.430, ADX = 25.087) as not only it crossed and closed over the LH trendline of the previous Top but kept the 4H MA50 as support and formed a 4H Golden Cross. The driving pattern seems to be yet again a Channel Up and this is its second bullish wave structure. Keeping the 4H MA50 intact should technically push the price to a HH. The previous wave topped a +15.55%, which is the basis for our target (TP = 21,150).

DAX: Aggressive uptrend for the rest of the year.DAX maintains a very healthy bullish 1D technical outlook (RSI = 60.112, MACD = 108.800, ADX = 23.465) as it is extending a rebound aon the 1D MA50, after an August 5th rebound on the 1D MA200 as well. Successive holds of those levels suggest that the index has already started the new Bullish Wave of the 2022 Channel Up. We can target at least the 2.0 Fibonacci level (TP = 20,250) as it was the level that priced the last HH.

NASDAQ: Critical breakout ahead that can send it to 22kNasdaq is almost overbought on the lower time-frames but just turned bullish on 1D (RSI = 55.402, MACD = -62.050, ADX = 25.952) and the main reason is that it closed over the 1D MA50 yesterday. This can't be considered a bullish signal on its own as the LH trendline is right over it and is being tested today. If broken, it is very likely to see the next bullish wave of the Channel Up. The previous two waves confirmed the uptrend after a candle closed over the LH.
If that happens, we will aim for a new Channel Up HH at the end of the year, almost at +31% from the bottom (TP = 22,000) like March's High.

"DAX Index Rises Ahead of ECB Meeting"In the U.S., the consumer price index increased by 0.2% in August, while the annual rise was 2.5%, aligning with forecasts. Following the drop in inflation, the likelihood of the Fed implementing a 25 basis point rate cut next week has risen to 85%. After this data release, market risk appetite increased, leading to intensified buying activity in the DAX index.
Today, there is an expectation of a 25 basis point rate cut in the European Central Bank (ECB) meeting.
Technically, on the upside if the price holds above the 18,500 resistance, buying could push the index first toward the 18,700 resistance and then to 18,900. if the 18,500 level is broken to the downside, a pullback could extend first to the 18,285 support and then to 18.075.
DAX Index Recovers Its Losses!Following the release of the U.S. non-farm payroll report, which came in below expectations, market risk appetite weakened. The DAX index also accelerated its decline, targeting the 18,257 support level. Expectations for a Fed rate cut have strengthened to 50 basis points, while the ECB is expected to lower rates by 25 basis points at its meeting this week.
Technically, if the 18,285 level is broken on the downside, a pullback could extend first to the 18,075 support and then to 17,920. On the upside, if the price holds above the 18,500 resistance, buying could push the index first towards the 18,700 resistance and then to 18,900.
S&P500: Rebounding on the 1D MA100.The S&P500 is recovering Friday's lost ground and turned neutral again on its 1D technical outlook (RSI = 46.331, MACD = -24.550, ADX = 22.750). Even though it needs to overcome the Resistance pressure of the 1D MA50, this rebound gives a very positive note as it is being performed on the 1D MA100, which last time was a bounce point on April 19 2024. If the August 5th rebound was a HL of a Bullish Megaphone, then now the index is starting phase 2 of the new Bullish Wave, much like the 1D MA50 bounce of May 31st. We are bullish with TP = 6000, on the -0.618 Fibonacci level for a HH.

Flag pattern Breakout in Pharma IndexIndices are far more reliable during technical analysis as compared to the individual stocks.
The pattern is a clean one in Nifty Pharma Index.
This is to spread the awareness about technical chart patterns and not a buy/sell recommendation.
Always do your own research before making any financial decision.
Resistance is ahead! Can the Dow Jones make a break through?
The index is clearly demonstrating a strong upward trend, consistently achieving higher highs and higher lows.
During this upward movement, it previously established a bullish Pole & Flag pattern, and after breaking out, the index has continued to rise.
At present, the index is trading just beneath its next resistance level.
If the Dow Jones manage to break through and hold above this breakout point, it is likely to initiate a new rally.
ViewHello, Traders. It's been a while since my last post. A lot has changed in my life: I received a promotion, got married, and traveled extensively across India, as well as to one international destination. While I kept an eye on the markets, I wasn't actively trading for the past year and a half. However, I'm back in action now, having resumed active trading over the last four months. I plan to share my insights whenever I anticipate market movements. Here’s my perspective for tomorrow.
The markets have undergone significant changes in recent years, so it's essential to be cautious with your position sizes. The volatility is high, and algorithmic trading is prevalent, leading to unexpected spikes almost daily. In the past six trading sessions, the markets have been stagnant, often trapping traders with false breakouts in both directions. I believe we are due for a significant move of at least 500 to 600 points in one direction. You can consider going long if a 30-minute candle closes above 50792.90, with the first target set at 51133 and the second at the yellow trendline. Make sure to hold on for at least 350 points on the index before booking profits. You can opt for futures or purchase the 14 Aug 50700 CE, though I recommend futures since expiration is just a day away. It’s also advisable to short the 50700 PE and 50800 PE, keeping a stop-loss at 50% of the premium paid on the call side. If the premium on the 50700 CE reaches 50%, set a stop-loss on the futures. Given the market's volatility, it's best to tread carefully on the downside.
[INTRADAY] #BANKNIFTY PE & CE Levels(14/08/2024)Today, Bank Nifty is expected to open with a slight gap up, with an opening level around 50000. After the opening, a possible reversal to the downside is anticipated. The downside target for today’s session could be around 49,550 if Bank Nifty does not sustain above 49950. Any upside rally will only be possible if Bank Nifty starts trading above 50050; this rally could reach up to 50450, which will act as a strong resistance level for today’s session.
SP500 1D | PlanThe reaction and closes of the price in the current area are very important. A close above the 200 EMA and DO within a few days is crucial. If the price fails to recapture the dark blue box as I indicated, I expect to see the price action, brush movement I have drawn below. The area of the purple box where MO and pMO are located will be the target.

This trade was made to teach a mentee about the power of options leveraged with narrow
expirations to optimize profits and not spend a lot of time in the trade to minimize risk
in the market from any number of potentials. Alerts and notifications centered on moving
averages and rise or fall of intraday low time frame relative strength are used to lessen
screen time. Twenty baggers may not be everyday but then again with practice and patience
they can come along often enough.
Nasdaq - (Bullish) Clarity in two days!TVC:NDQ is now retesting a very important inflection level and maybe attempting a breakout.
Parabolic rise or -20% correction over the next couple of months. So far there is a lot of uncertainty as to whether the Nasdaq will manage to break above the current resistance trendline. We simply have to wait for this monthly candle closure as well as the monthly candle closure of July until we can make a clear prediction. So far, everything is still possible!
Levels to watch: $20.000, $16.000

Nasdaq - Soon heading to $30.000?Hello Traders and Investors, today I will take a look at the Nasdaq .
--------
Explanation of my video analysis:
For more than a decade, the Nasdaq index has been trading in a rising channel formation with the last retest of the support trendline being back in the end of 2022. At the moment, Nasdaq is retesting the upper resistance trendline and if we actually see a breakout over the next 2 months, we might see a similar rally of +50% compared to the one which we saw back in 2020.

Keep your long term vision,
Philip (BasicTrading)
