Nikkei Index futures forecast 2020Nikkei Index futures are moving higher breaking price levels from September 2018. As expected and mentioned in previous Nikkei 225 index analysis, a new strong bullish impulse has been created around 23,572 price level. The strength of that movement has turned that bullish impulse into a strong demand imbalance for the Japanese index. The timeframe attached corresponds to the weekly timeframe. That means that every candlestick represents a week of time. For many of you intraday and shorter stock traders, that will be like a lot of time. Unfortunately, time flies and a few weeks of time can pass in the blink of an eye.
There is definitely a bullish bias on the Japanese Nikkei 225 index for the year 2020 and 2021. A lot of things have to happen for the index to reverse and give us a bearish bias. As supply and demand traders, we do not need to take into consideration any type of fundamental analysis for the Japanese index, price action and the strength of the imbalances is what matters the most.

Nikkei 225 - Will the market Fade to a consistent level?➖⚡➖ KEY TAKEAWAYS ➖⚡➖
✔️ Strong rally only natural to retrace
➖⚡➖ TECHNICAL ANALYSIS ➖⚡➖
Bullish Outlook:
A break above the most recent level of ascending resistance (in yellow) would expose further upside
Bearish Outlook:
I think it's only natural to see some profit taking on a strong bullish rally. Question is though, how much of a retracement should we expect? Well historically speaking, the 50% fib level is the most common level.

Elliott Wave View: Nikkei (NKD) Ready to Extend HigherShort term Elliott Wave view on Nikkei (NKD) suggests the Index ended cycle from October 9 peak in wave (2) at 22889. Subdivision of wave (2) unfolded as a zigzag. Down from October 9 peak, wave A ended at 23380 and wave B ended at 23705. Wave C of (2) ended at 22889 which can be seen in the 45 minutes chart below. Index has since turned higher in wave (3). However, it still needs to break above the previous peak on October 9 peak at 23765. Up from wave (2) low at 22889, wave ((i)) ended at 23160 and pullback in wave ((ii)) ended at 23045.
Index resumed higher in wave ((iii)) towards 23450 and pullback in wave ((iv)) ended at 23350. Index should end wave ((v)) soon and this should complete a 5 waves impulsive rally wave 1 in higher degree. Afterwards, Index should pullback in wave 2 as a zigzag to correct cycle from October 30 low before the rally resumes. As far as wave (2) pivot low at 22889 stays intact, expect pullback to find support in 3, 7, or 11 swing. Potential minimum target higher in wave (3) is 100% – 123.6% Fibonacci extension from September 21 low, which comes at 24123 – 24417.
What can we learn from Tweezer Tops & White Spinning Tops SHCOMP - What can we learn from Tweezer Tops & White Spinning Tops . NOT ADVICE DYOR
ridethepig | Nikkei Market Commentary 2020.09.19📌 The Nikkei would have freed some space to the downside with a technical break last week, but given that we have not pierced the support line and buyers are still well-placed we must be wary of a retest in the highs of the multi year top at 24,000 - the same level we have been tracking since 2018!!
The more interesting notion comes from the Global Equity board with breaks being led by NY and following through with Europe on the quadruple witching flows.
A simple move here would be playing the breakdown for a quick test of the 200 day MA which is +/- 22,000 and on the other perhaps opening up the panic leg towards the lows at 20,300 if the rest of the flows play along. Any moves to the topside lack conviction and the RSI destroys all winning chances for buyers as we approach the highs.
Thanks as usual for keeping the feedback coming 👍 or 👎
3 Press Low In To Channel Low Bear Failure PotentialSellers have been very strong on the drive down and now breaking lower again with a 3 press low is beginning to show signs of slowing. Each consecutive low is less distance than before and rounding off and it just so happens to be occurring at the channel lows. Buyers are under pressure here and this is a last ditch for them. A break below the low would be a potential reversal signal for 2 legs lower but, assuming bulls hold above the low (or don't allow it to break much), buyers have a great R:R shot at a long that could potentially turn in to a much longer term swing.
