NAS100 Triangle Apex – Breakout or Breakdown ImminentBullish View:
• Price is forming higher lows and holding above the lower ascending trendline.
• A breakout above the upper descending trendline near 18,500 would confirm bullish
momentum.
• If the breakout is sustained, potential upside targets include 18,650 and 18,800.
Bearish View:
• Price has tested the lower support trendline and shown weakness near the apex of the
triangle.
• A breakdown below 18,100 would indicate bearish momentum and invalidate the ascending
structure.
• If the breakdown is sustained, potential downside targets include 17,950 and 17,700.

CADJPY WILL BULLISH OR BEARISH ?? DETAILED ANALYSISCADJPY is currently forming a clear descending wedge pattern on the 12H chart, which historically signals a high-probability bullish reversal. The price has respected both the upper descending trendline and the lower support line with precision over the past few months, but the recent reaction near the wedge support is showing signs of buying interest. With the current price trading at 103.10, we are at a critical juncture where a breakout to the upside could initiate a strong momentum rally toward the 109.00 target.
Technically, this setup is supported by multiple touchpoints on both trendlines, suggesting a mature wedge structure ready to break. The risk-reward ratio is extremely favorable here, with clear invalidation below 100.90 and upside potential aligned with the upper structure of the broader consolidation zone. A confirmed breakout and candle close above the 104.00 resistance area would likely signal the start of a bullish impulse wave targeting 109.00 in the medium term.
On the fundamental side, CAD is supported by firm oil prices, which have remained elevated due to ongoing geopolitical risks and OPEC+ production cuts. Meanwhile, the JPY continues to weaken as the Bank of Japan remains firmly committed to ultra-loose monetary policy, even as inflation expectations globally stay elevated. This divergence in monetary policy between the BoC and BoJ is fueling carry trade flows, further boosting CADJPY's bullish outlook.
Looking ahead, any signs of risk-on sentiment in global markets, combined with resilient Canadian data, could act as a catalyst for the breakout. With the market positioning leaning heavily on JPY shorts and crude oil demand remaining strong, CADJPY is technically and fundamentally poised for a breakout rally. I'm watching the 104.00 zone closely—once cleared, I anticipate a swift move toward 109.00 with momentum on our side.
Worst is behind for QQQ and SPXA textbook Bear flag with proper breakdown and reached the target.
Now the market is ranging to decide where to go. Whatever the price action will be, there will be suitable news on TV afterwards don't worry.
Looking purely at the charts, QQQ should recover between 488-510 area.
The two big volume days at the end of the pattern target convinced me we are on the way up for now, whether its a trap or not remains to be seen.
Cheers
Nasdaq is not done yet, dont be fooled! On Wednesday, April 9, 2025, the Nasdaq experienced a significant 15% surge, driven by news catalysts. This upward movement aligned with the price reaching the daily Fair Value Gap (FVG), effectively absorbing all internal liquidity at that level. The critical juncture now lies in how the Nasdaq (NQ) performs over the next few days. Should we see a retest and breach of the recent highs from this news-driven rally, it could signal a strong potential for the index to achieve new all-time highs (ATH). Conversely, if the momentum falters and fails to sustain these levels, a swift decline toward 16,000 could materialize, with a further potential downside target of 14,000.

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.

WHY GBPUSD BULLISH ?/ DETAILED ANALYSISGBPUSD has successfully completed a textbook retest of a major demand zone around 1.2650–1.2700, and we’re now seeing signs of bullish strength returning to the pair. After a corrective move from recent highs, price respected this zone with high precision, forming a strong bullish rejection candle that signals a potential reversal. With the market pushing back above 1.2850, we now have a clean higher low structure forming, indicating the next bullish leg is likely in play.
Technically, the 12H chart structure aligns well with a bullish continuation model. Price broke structure to the upside, came back to retest the neckline of the previous impulse leg, and is now bouncing with solid momentum. This is a classic demand zone reaction paired with a clean V-recovery pattern. As long as GBPUSD holds above 1.2700, I am targeting the 1.3400–1.3460 region in the coming weeks. The risk-reward setup here is highly favorable, with clearly defined invalidation below 1.2650 and upside potential aligned with macro sentiment.
On the fundamental side, GBP remains supported by persistent wage growth and sticky inflation in the UK economy, leading the market to price in fewer near-term rate cuts from the Bank of England. Meanwhile, the US dollar has started to show cracks as softer inflation data and slower NFP numbers last week are reducing expectations for further Fed tightening. This divergence in policy outlook between the BoE and the Fed is fueling GBPUSD upside, especially as the pair trades around key psychological levels.
Overall, with a strong confluence of technical bounce from demand, bullish fundamentals, and market sentiment shifting toward risk-on, GBPUSD looks well-positioned for further upside. A break and hold above 1.2900 will likely accelerate the move toward 1.3460. I'll be watching closely for momentum continuation setups as the pair builds bullish pressure in this zone.

USDCAD IS DRROPPING. DETAILED TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTALSUSDCAD is currently trading around 1.4200 after a clean retest of a previously broken support zone, which has now turned into a strong resistance level. Price action is confirming the bearish structure as we see a gradual yet consistent drop from the highs of 1.4540. With the rejection seen from the supply zone and recent lower high formation, momentum is shifting further in favor of the sellers. I am now targeting 1.3800 for the next key level, aligning with both technical confluence and fundamental sentiment.
Technically, the structure is clear: we had a failed breakout above 1.4450, followed by a decisive bearish engulfing move. The market then completed a textbook retest at the 1.4340–1.4450 supply zone before resuming the downside move. The current formation on the 12H chart shows a lower low and lower high sequence intact, signaling a trend continuation to the downside. The highlighted zones also provide ideal reward-to-risk setups for continuation traders.
From a fundamental perspective, the Canadian dollar is gaining strength due to rising oil prices, with WTI crude now climbing back above the $85 mark. This directly supports the loonie given Canada’s oil-export-driven economy. Meanwhile, US economic uncertainty around upcoming CPI data and shifting Fed rate cut expectations continue to weigh on the dollar’s upside momentum. Additionally, recent risk-on sentiment in global markets is pushing flows into commodity-linked currencies like CAD.
With technicals and fundamentals aligning, I remain firmly bearish on USDCAD. As long as price remains below the 1.4340 resistance, I’m looking for continuation toward the major demand zone near 1.3830–1.3800. This setup offers a clean 1:3+ risk-to-reward profile, and I will be scaling in further on bearish confirmations as the market progresses.

WHY XAUUSD IS BULLISH ?? TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTALSXAUUSD is currently trading around the key psychological level of 3000, and as expected, price action has just completed a textbook retest of the previous breakout zone. The support level near 2960–2980 has held strongly, giving gold the momentum it needs for the next leg up. Price has reacted with a clear bullish bounce from this demand zone, confirming the structure and setting up for a potential continuation toward the 3100 target.
From a technical perspective, we’re seeing a classic bullish continuation move. The previous impulse to the upside was followed by a correction phase, which respected the support area now acting as a launchpad. This bounce, combined with strong candle formations on the 12H and daily charts, suggests bulls are regaining control. Volume is gradually increasing, aligning with the anticipated breakout from the recent consolidation.
On the fundamentals side, the gold market remains well-supported. Recent macroeconomic data shows inflationary pressures are still lingering, while expectations for Federal Reserve rate cuts later in the year continue to weigh on the US dollar. Geopolitical tensions and increased central bank gold accumulation are adding further demand for safe-haven assets like gold. These drivers remain bullish catalysts as long as uncertainty stays elevated and real yields remain low.
With price holding above 3000 and a strong structure in place, I expect continuation toward 3100 in the near term. This is a high-probability setup supported by both technicals and fundamentals. I’ll be closely watching for higher lows and continuation signals above 3020 for additional confirmation. Risk management remains key, but the market structure strongly favors further upside.
NQ volatility likely to persist until retest of 13k buy zonechart shows it all...expect more volatility this month, likely a retest of 61.8 fib level at 15k & 78.6 fib levels (based on lows from 2023) near 13k before we finally run to the highs again into 2026!
tariffs have similar impact as rate hikes...overall will be digested by markets just fine & we'll head back to the highs as fed sees more freedom to cut given those effects...very incentivized to prevent a "hard landing" economically without also boosting inflation too much, so this is all actually a good thing if you can see it :)

Nasdaq 100 drops to its lowest level since January 2024Nasdaq 100 drops to its lowest level since January 2024
According to the chart of the Nasdaq 100 (US Tech 100 mini on FXOpen), the index opened this week around the 16,500 mark – a price level last seen in early 2024.
This suggests that the sharp sell-off in equities seen last Thursday and Friday may well continue today.
Stock indices respond to Trump’s tariffs
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said on NBC News’ Meet the Press that there is “no reason” to expect a recession.
However, equity charts reflect market sentiment described by CNN Business’s Fear & Greed Index as “extreme fear”. This wave of negativity followed President Trump’s announcement on 2 April of harsher-than-expected international trade tariffs. In response, China and other nations announced retaliatory measures.
As a result, the Nasdaq 100 (US Tech 100 mini on FXOpen) now trades roughly 25% below its 2025 peak – officially entering bear market territory.
Technical analysis of the Nasdaq 100 (US Tech 100 mini on FXOpen)
Back on 28 February, we drew an ascending trendline (line A). Bulls attempted a rebound from this support (as shown by the arrow), but their efforts were overwhelmed by the White House’s latest policy decisions.
Given the updated price action, we can now treat line A as the median of an ascending channel. From this perspective, the index is currently near the lower boundary of the channel.
Technically, this could indicate potential support. However, as long as the price remains below the bearish gap – which includes the key psychological level of 17,000 – talk of a meaningful recovery may be premature.

Nas100 - Huge bear trap or further downside?The Nasdaq 100 has recently broken a critical rising trendline that has supported its bullish trajectory for an extended period. This break signifies a potential shift in market sentiment, suggesting that the prior uptrend may be losing steam. When an established trendline is breached, it often signals a change in the market's direction, indicating that buyers are losing control and sellers are starting to assert dominance.
In addition to the trendline break, the Nasdaq 100 has now fallen below all of its key moving averages—namely, the 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day moving averages. These moving averages are widely followed indicators of trend strength, and their loss is typically a bearish sign. When prices drop below these averages, it signals weakening momentum, and it becomes harder for the index to regain upward traction without strong buying pressure.
The weekly timeframe shows a beautiful support level if the bulls fail to reclaim all the key moving averages.
Together, the break of the rising trendline and the loss of key moving averages suggest that the Nasdaq 100 could be entering a phase of increased volatility and downward pressure. Traders should closely monitor the index for potential further declines or a failure to reclaim these key technical levels, as they could signal deeper market corrections.
Thanks for your support.

NQ! Short Idea (MXMM, Quarterly Theory)Hello, after 2 successful weeks I'm planning to continue this streak. Current WR is 75%.
