Nq!
QQQ Buy the Dip LONGQQQ down in the range of the June lows on the 30-minute chart appears to be in a falling wedge pattern
now with two green candles in a trend breakout from the wedge to close out the week.
The volume indicator shows a corresponding volume spike.
Are short-sellers buying to cover and take profits? Are new buyers taking a buy the dip position?
What is your optinion, is this a good entry setup for a swing long trade?
SPY - Larger ContextLet's dispense with the Master O' Obvious stuff straight away.
Pick an Adjective - it won't rhyme with Bullish.
It may, however, be cringeworthy.
NQ below 200 W SMA.
What lay ahead remains up to 3588 for the ES Futures, *Note the 200SMA Weekly is just below
this most important of level @ 3585.55.
Powell - simple... NO CHANGE.
____________________________________________________________________________________
There has been a very orderly decline since The Terrible Tetons.
The Monthly Gaps below remain wide open for Business, but - the Gaps above, not so much.
It would take an extraordinary/non-binary Event to Fill those for now.
We will see what further Fiscal attempts at remedy appear as we approach the Mid-Term Elections.
I have November 7th as an important Pivot in Time, unsure as to why. It is however extremely
significant as it keeps making appearances in Time on a great many studies.
____________________________________________________________________________________
Risks remain to the downside Short Term. Intermediate-Term will depend on an October Communique
from the Market Overlords aka "Behnchods".
The Chart is self-explanatory / it illustrates the Risk / Reward clearly.
What was most interesting this week was how Wall Street was extremely agile in positioning. Options
positioning was done with extreme Velocity / Scope / Scale. Executed perfectly to cause maximum
confusion until it was too late for the boat to right itself.
They capsized small Specs, repeatedly by loading the woodshed on the Sell in record time.
And then, proceeded to close out Open Interest as quickly as it appeared once Payment was secured.
Unfortunately, the House continued to press the SELL once they'd squared @ 365.06 on the SPY.
The VIX and SPX, ES, NQ, YM - Inverse Gamma Hedging was NOT unwound but pressed quite hard.
Gold - Lower for the nearer term, it is a broken trade, it can RT, but it will fail.

Here was the Implied Skew and Range I calculated Thursday for the Friday Dance Mix:
Call Skew ATM
$ 53,140,489.00 384.94
43.41% 365.06
Range 19.88
IV% Gamma Dependent
PUT Skew ATM
$ 122,410,005.00 384.94
230.35% 365.06
Range 19.88
IV% Gamma Dependent
The Close came off the Pivot after dipping in ever so slightly with 368 for the SPY Close
based upon the collapse of Open Interest - closing at 367.95.
Wall Street ran the implied range @ 19.88 by 1.79 - a small expansion to 21.67.
Close enough, MaxPain had the SPY pinned @ 387... their data sets were off by a very wide
margin - an absurd failure on their effort.
Here is the Open Data Set:
Calls O/I $ Multiple Notional $
375 179749 2.23 100 $ 40,084,027.00
376 155605 1.77 100 $ 27,542,085.00

In Sum, do not ever trust MaxPain, do your own work.
It is garbage.

The important points in the Chart:
Notice where the 55 EMA resides.
Observe the Shorter duration of EMA crosses.
EMA slopes and ST Fib Levels as both are Neodymium Magnets.
Gap Fill Extension Range to and from recent Gap Highs to Implied Price Objective.
____________________________________________________________________________________
On to the Fundamentals:
AAII Sentiment has crossed 60%
Fear Greed is now 24 breaking into the Extreme Fear base camp
The Dollar has its sights set on the 121 / 125 region, please observe the EuroDollar Chart. As well,
consider the Dollar's response to BOJ interventions.
Bonds are showing immense stress in the system. UST Settlement Failures are a disturbing account
of reality. Defaults are mounting Globally, (See UK $500B recent Default last week).
Yield Inversion simply continues to accelerate in fits and starts. Forwards for 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7's are heading
to 5%. A 40-Year Freak Out as Yield Inversion has exceeded 50%.
FX - Default dislocations throughout the Markets can lead to a near Instant Spike in the Dollar contrary
to those who are Bearish on the DXY. Yes, it will indeed collapse - your timing... it's off is all.
Bitcoin - SUB 10K IMHO with ease - see Trendline.
It is important to remember with EPS ahead - the Mega Caps breaking down... after 3 reductions
to lower guidance since August... Sellers are piling into Apple once again, with good reason, it looks
horrific. Weakness is everywhere in MegaCaps.
Breadth - collapsing
TRIN - Horror Show
TRIX - Ditto
Market Internals - No Nieno

Contrarian Traders are likely early, hopefully, we see a small RT Monday for Wall Street to reposition.
Have a great weekend. if you enjoyed this and found it of value, please give it a thumbs up and do share your

NASDAQ QQQ Near 200 Week Moving AverageHaven't posted for a while as I have been waiting for a setup. NASDAQ is near the 200 week moving average which has supported the price in 2020 and before that 2010. Fundamentals are ugly, as they were when it hit this moving average in 2020.
Long above the line, short if price falls below and forms a setup with structure.
NQ is getting close to its first main target of 11180Its getting close, should hit next week.
Its still not a place to be long imo, we are still in a rabbit hole
SPX can see 3200 level next month!
Powell damage control is here, dont get trapped if we go up into the close
BTW here is a link from days ago, you know where the price is now
Current SPY low is < 1% from the June 2022 lows - Double Bottom?My cycle patterns suggest a rally phase is likely over the next 7+ trading days - but, the trend is very bearish today. It is almost as if the markets are flushing out stop levels - actively seeking a support level near the June 2022 lows.
It will be very interesting to see how the market ends today. If we see a big recovery rally into the close, it may support my cycle patterns predictions of a rally phase leading to what may be a new support level near $365. If it continues to sell downward, then I will be forced to admit my cycle patterns FAILED today. That means I'll have to spend hours studying why this failed and if I can make any improvements to my cycle pattern qualifiers/code.
I will state that my predictive modeling suggests a rally phase is still likely. So, we'll see what happens as the day progresses.
Follow my research.
Big Cycle Pattern Day - Momentum Rally DayThat means the SPY should find immediate support (after it appears a big GAP downward reflecting Europe's recession concerns).
Here's a little hint: Bitcoin will likely rally along with the SPY/ES and others over the next 7+ days.
The strength of the US economy/US Dollar may drive global investors into US assets and safe-havens throughout the end of 2022 - possibly setting up a very strong Christmas Rally phase.
Remember, this was all predicted over 3 years ago by a major cycle event. I have every day mapped out all the way past 2026 and beyond.
Next week should be very exciting. The potential for the markets to rally higher is high. There is a CRUSH day (9-28) that may represent some type of corrective price event, but other than that one day, the momentum appears to be to the upside.
Hope you guys are enjoying these? Please comment or let me know if you find these valuable in any way/form?
Follow my research...
Effective Fed Fuds 2023 - Powell's War on You
Growth, Employment, Inflation - aka what's left of the Economy.
1. Employment - seeking roughly a reduction of 12 Million Jobs.
2. Growth - reduction of 50% for S&P 500 from Highs.
3. Inflation - Leads until Rate Lag breaks everything.
_________________________________________________________________________________
Capital Stocks
Powell - Bonds are going to see a Yield Curve Inversion, larger than usual. There is no single
condition, what is the term premium on Longer Rates is what matters most.
Powell - Housing will see a significant correction, we want the housing market back on a
sustainable path.
Powell - Equities are overvalued, period, the end. We're committed to "Price Stability"
Powell - The US should not return to a Gold Standard - Digital Currency is the path.
Powell - We flooded the System with Money (Digitally) by buying Bonds now we are selling them.
_________________________________________________________________________________
Forward Rates are indicating he is very serious.
I've warned about this for well over a year now - safe to say its come to pass.
Cycle Pattern - Tomorrows Momentum Rally PatternIs it really that hard to believe that tomorrow could shift gears and move into a moderate momentum rally after the Fed raised rates 75bp?
What I find incredibly interesting about these patterns is how they can paint a very clear picture of the opportunities and shifting market trends.
Each day is clearly defined (except for the N/A days). Each day paints a picture of what to expect and potential trend.
Reading all this data as a story or narrative provides us a very innovative way to address allocation levels, risks/opportunities and trends.
Given the market volatility and trending, I would still suggest addressing any potential momentum rally with some caution. Trade smaller amounts and look to pull away from position before the close of trading on Friday.
Follow my research.
SPY - Apres Powell & The Double DipJackson Hole, CPI, and FOMC are rearview.
Are you a Dip Buyer - with Powell stating the FED is on the low side of the
Target Range?
That is a suicide, assured.
See Chart - the obnoxious Bots are far more intelligent than us and gaining
further ground exponentially. We closely observe their programs daily and
make adjustments among our small group of live traders each and every day.
That Chart is simply NASTY.
The June bottom is where Traders are now focused. I'm looking lower.
It's not going to hold IMHO, 3588 for the ES will be tested and panic will
become a brushfire.
Yesterday's SPY frenzy failed 8 times... it whipsawed all the degenerate
gunslinging gamblers - all in the last 150 minutes.
Degens were buying calls into the closing... which in turn provided the
fuel to wreck them for the 9th time into Globex.
Amazing to watch, but disappointing as we traders need Liquidity.
Net/Net the CBOE Equity Put/Call Ratio closed the day @ 0.71 for Sep 21, 2022.
Technically the Markets do not support Buyers.
Liquidity does not support Buyers.
Margins do not support Buyers.
Volatility does not support Buyers. A larger Gap Fills overhead.
Yields do not support Buyers.
The Dollar does not support Buyers. Look for my 111.71 Po to be hit, should
it snap higher... 112.27 to 144.11 come into the Trade,
I have been patiently waiting for the real Panic event, where the Algos
simply pull the Bids and let gravity take hold.
Is there a setup here?
No, there is however a great many trades.
Options positioning has played an important role in Intra-Week to Monthly
expiration. I trade the O/I Setups and imbalance as a better guide Intra-day
and Intra-week.
It's a nose-biter, but it is what we are given.
3810 on the ES is gone 380.11 & 382.67 for the SPY - goners.
NQ's 50 FULL HWB 50% @ 13415 - nearly 2K overhead.
Dow/YM - 28.4 / 28.2 Gap Fills ahead.
VIX - Term Structure... Backwardation I wanred of...
arrived.
Bonds - my implied "Return of Capital" trade is active. They will be wrecked
again, the same traders buying TLT since 180, 155, 145, 130, and 120 will simply
be hammered again. Flight to Disaster Trade will fail again as it has 7 times.
You do you traders will be crushed again. Flight to Safety will get caught
up and distend Value and Price once again. I'll be Seller into the next CT in
TLT.
Bitcoin - rejected, Sub 10K ahead - the larger Long Term trendline, IMHO
will not provide lasting support.
Gold - Horror show continues. After being repeatedly told by a few traders it's a
buy @ 1930... 1900, 1872, 1850, and 1800... they are now about $300 out of the money
since bringing out the Bullhorns... GOLD is heading a great deal lower. Ya'll were
warned by a person who has traded Gold for 44 years now. Projecting sophomoric
experiences from YouTube... fails every time. Trading on the Comex back in the
day isn't some dumbass projecting, it's wisdom. You do you aka... wrong again.
Energy, we remain patient for the 77 Full HB Test to see the lower extension.
Sentiment - Terminal.
In Sum - charts are pretty much useless as Fundas take hold, yes they'll instruct
on Possibility/ Probability - but that is rather obvious is it not?
________________________________________________________________
Powell promised to Break "Something" - "Everything" appears more appropriate.
Fixed.
Powell indicated the FED sees further Risks to Inflation and needs to bring
Fed Funds move aggressively towards the Inflation Rate.
Will Technical Exhaustion provide a small Counter-Trend this week... possibly,
but that appears to be an event for Friday. Powell speaks @ 2 PM EST Friday.
___________________________________________________________________
Calculating the Yield Push forward for 6 Months, I currently have 4.53% for
Effective Fed Funds into April / June of 2023. This is subject to change as
my Dot Plot is now ~480/490, unfortunately, it extends to 500/510 into
March of 2024.
The Yield Curve will see 6% into October of 2023 IMHO. The Pullback to 2.71 on
10 Year was a very limited YCC intervention from the Federal Reserve.
My projection, the Federal Reserve is relying on Inflation returning below 6%
into 2023.
It is important to remember the BLS reset the BASE for CPI on January 1st, 2022.
2019/2020 is the present Base.
___________________________________________________________________
I have referenced the FSR repeatedly for 10 Months - If you have not read the
Federal Reserve's Financial Stability Report since last November and again
for the May 2022 release - it requires traders' attention.
Here is their SPY Objective - 240 - it will likely exceed this level over time
filling the Gap at 235.
___________________________________________________________________
Good Luck & Trade Safe.
Elliott Wave View: Nasdaq (NQ) Further Downside ExpectedShort term Elliott Wave view on Nasdaq (NQ) suggests the decline from 8.17.2022 high is unfolding as a zigzag Elliott Wave structure. Down from 8.17 high, wave A ended at 12017.75. Wave B ended at 12986.74 with internal subdivision as an expanded flat. Up from wave A, wave ((a)) ended at 12461.50 and dips in wave ((b)) ended at 11921.50. Wave ((c)) higher ended at 12986.74 which also completed wave B.
Index has turned lower in wave C with internal subdivision as a 5 waves impulse. Down from wave B, wave ((i)) ended at 11778.50 and rally in wave ((ii)) ended at 12143.34. Internal subdivision of wave ((ii)) unfolded as an expanded flat. Up from wave ((i)), wave (a) ended at 12092.50, wave (b) ended at 11763.25, and wave (c) ended at 12143.34. This completed wave ((ii)) of C. Index has resumed lower in wave ((iii)). Near term, expect wave (i) of ((iii)) to end soon. Index should then rally in wave (ii) to correct cycle from 9.22.2022 high (12143.34) before it resumes lower. As far as pivot at 12143.34 stays intact, expect rally to fail in 3, 7, or 11 swing for further downside. Potential target lower is 100% – 161.8% Fibonacci extension of wave ((i)) which comes at 10195 – 10938.
NQ H&S or Bear flag?I want to see a final move down after FOMC, maybe lasting into tomorrow and then up into the 26-27th high.
On the other hand it can just blast of making a higher low to suck more bears in and stop the longs.
Make your bets, today will be volatile.
Main trend is still down. Im looking for a high on the 27th and sell hard into the EOM in Aug like move
SPY, Broad Markets & the FOMC PlaybookFOMC @ 2:00 PM EST reaction will see one of 3 Events:
1. 75BPS is priced - leading to a move higher to recent intra-week Highs.
2. 75BPS is priced - leading to a tighter range into Powell.
3. 100 - 125 BPS is not priced - leading to a breakdown and a VIXplosion to 31
and VIX Curve inversion.
Powell's conviction @ 2:30 PM EST sets the Equity Complex in further motion of
which there are 3 events:
1. Powell indicates the FED is making progress but needs to see further Data and
intends to remain vigilant.
2. Powell indicates the FED sees further Risks to Inflation and needs to bring
Fed Funds aggressively towards the Inflation Rate.
3. Powell indicates the FOMC's trend toward Higher Rates will need to remain
consistent in order to maintain stability with November an important
timeframe for the FED.
______________________________________________________________________
Nature abhors a Vacuum.
As does the US Dollar - Any spike above 110 leads to 111.71s.
Dot Plots, Terminal Rates... will all see an adjustment, one that has made
higher velocity movements recently.
The Yield Curve - with 1's over 4%, 2's approaching 4%, and a new Inversion
dipping into prior lows and exceeding them @ - 0.487% - doubling the
prior 2 most recent curve inversions.
The Market Signals are quite clear - indicating the FED will raise 100BPS as
a flood of Global Central Banks Rate decisions are set in motion this week
and next.
Competition is building among them. Powell will not be sanguine.
That will not happen today IMHO.
Powell will be direct in the extreme once again as the FED has no
intention of back off until 8 months after their final rate increase.
This is the history of Interest Rate Cycles - this one will be shorter
and far more volatile than prior cycles.
______________________________________________________________________
Yes, we are at the lower end of the Risk Range, but nowhere near the lows.
It is important to remember, RIsk compounds from elevated levels - which
provides vacuous sucking sounds time and again.
______________________________________________________________________
Time favors the Spread, if you are using leverage, the October Monthly Expiry is
the safer Trade into an October Straddle - direction neutrality the higher probability
of profit.
The tightest spread is preferred as the IV is elevated, should it come down, close the
position as IV can move in either direction today, it is VIX Settlement.
Lack of volatility - is the lowest probability providing the performance.
The key to success is to close the position within a few days.
I am taking ATH only.
______________________________________________________________________
Trade Safe & Good Luck.
NQ to make another daily engulfing pattern if we make below 790The price rejected the test of the broken trendline - perfect kiss of the death pattern.
My thoughts about a fakeout were too optimistic, I was looking to add to my NQ short at higher levels and it didnt present an opportunity.
Main target for this move is 11175-85 and possibly much lower.
Try not to day trade this, unless you're quick with taking profits and run
NQ same as the SPX, looking for a good size rally after the FOMC and fade completely by Friday
Going to short a bounce, if presented
P.S. Dont forget to like (click star-ship button) my posts, so it gets pushed up on TV for others to see as well.
Thanks in advance!
SPY / ES / SPX - Market Structure & PostureWeekly Engulfing Charts are clearly not a preferred look for the Buy Side and those
riding the Bullish Tilt-O-Whirl - Bodies are being flung everywhere.
The Dollar is doing its thing, it ran to our PO at 107.65 with a 107.67 print and
reversed yet again. it's been a pattern as the EuroDollar continues the ties that
bind, Dollar shortages create demand until the Dollar is dethroned.
Sell Side has lifted the CBOE P/C to (.82).
Please note after the brutal June 17th 4X - we reversed very hard the following Monday.
For Roll out the Options Curve - it's muted Frankly. Traders took their Bags, packed up, and headed
off to parts unknown.
That said... Bulls may have a chance to hold and to have... "may" - as horrific as it looks,
Wall Street may surprise with a short Countertrend to shake off the Late chasers. Again it
is "may" not will - It is, however, exactly what I would do.
There simply isn't enough Capital to transfer in the leveraged deep end of the Pool. It
seems there is another attraction elsewhere for now - unaware of any real contests outside
of the Lounge, but the lizards are somewhere, for certain.
Sentiment everywhere is pure doom, gloom, and kaboom. Understandably so after Teton
Jerry and CPI - it's been a brutal month for Buyers. Wrecked and Raked at every turn.
______________________________________________________________________________
Here's O/I for SPY into Month End by Expiry:
SPY 9/19 Exp - Very Low Participation
SPY 9/21 Exp - Moderate Participation (FOMC) / VIX Roll/Settle Complete 4 PN EST on 9/20)
SPY 9/23 Exp - 360 Participation @ ~70K
SPY 9/26 Exp - Very Low Participation
SPY 9/28 Exp - Very Low Participation
SPY 9/30 Exp - Very High Participation @ 390 @ 102K / 385 @ 134K / 370 @ 143K / 350 @ 120K
October Monthly Expiry needs those traveling to parts unknown, requiring some time to re-engage.
It is important to note the early & largest entry for October was 372 Puts.
On to the Chart
______________________________________________________________________________
Charts are simple messy, mixed, and have the appearance of that "double bottom" in trade
and quickly... which may be why it doesn't happen.
The KEY Line in the Sand is not the Lows, it is the dip in below 3588 - that is a number
so please commit it to memory, breaking it.. assure a return to far lower lows, but
over time.
We completed Day 21 of this downside Crush from Wall Street. The Financial Media has been
abuzz about multiple contractions after spending weeks supporting "Pivot Chatter" and, surprise,
"Multiple Expansion" - remarkable anyone listens.
For "Time" we need a breather... soon. it's important to remember the ES defended the
FHWB - all-time highs to lows @ 3849.50 @ 3853.
Structurally - it looks bleak. I mean look at it... it's terrible. Longer Term, even worse - but
that is for later, for now, it's interesting... and it is quite possible we get a larger counter-trend
Squeeze developing this week. A very nasty one... quite possibly.
RSI STO supports its development near term. Best to be agile and not be caught offsides, as
fear is grinding lower - currently @ 36 as the September Vix settles on - Powell the 21st.
Jerry's arrival Wednesday with 75BPS most likely, as 100BPS I was looking for may be split to
the November FOMC as it appears to be 75BPS as well. The Ministry of Financial Truth was
out early in the week touting100 only to hear JPM quash that with "The Fed isn't going to raise
100BPS, but 75BPS".
We will see, I'm non-plussed with Forward Rates trading @ 4.5%. Yields have gone vertical... never
a good thing, not ever. Institutions apparently now consider the 1 & 2-year pristine collateral.
I had to laugh when Bloomberg touted - "Yes but the 30/90 Day are not inverted~!" Oh, Hooray
for this - perhaps it's the fact Yellen curtailed issuance to non-existent and the Market for the
very short end of the Curve... is not trading any real liquidity.
Something is going to give - but in a most unusual way. Yes, valuations will be corrected further.
Of this there is little doubt, it's how it occurs that traders seize.
Wall Street enjoys a nice lift ahead of EPS Season... with Powell stuck squarely in the middle.
______________________________________________________________________________
NQ Zoomed out chartCheck the broken to the downside trend channel re-test NQ is having now.
So far its riding it from the bottom.
I wont count out a fakeout move up to 12150-60 or even 12240-50 and then going back below the bottom of the trend channel.
Support is at 11900 for tomorrow long try. If we see that level during the open time, I will be taking long for a 100+ points ride up.
The most bullish case is - re visit 12700 level.
But the time is really running out and unless we get a huge squeeze tomorrow, I think the upside will be very limited and the price will eventually get to my main target - 11175-200 and maybe much lower.
Oct should mark the low and Im wondering if we even see 9-10k zone tested.
So far Im planning on adding to my swing short tomorrow and just seat on it till after the FOMC decision move.
Im running some ES longs against my main NQ short, ready to cut at 3919ES level.
This is my working chart and I have hided as many indicators as possible, so you all can see the chart more clear then it is:)
P.S. Dont forget to like (click star-ship button) my posts, so it gets pushed up on TV for others to see as well.
Thanks in advance!
Nasdaq Volatility Forecast 19-24 Sep 2022Nasdaq Volatility Forecast 19-24 Sep 2022
The current implied volatility is +-489$ from the current opening of the weekly candle, 11920$
With this in mind, we have a 80% chance that the market is going to stay within the range:
TOP: 12400
BOT: 11430
At the same time, we can see that the average weekly candle, is around 2.4 - 2.68%
From the technical analysis POV, we can see that our asset is above EMA 50/100 and above EMA 200.
From the volume POV, we can see that currently CMF level is on the positive side, indicading a stronger buyer positions.
Since we open below 12k, I believe there is a much higher chance this week that the market will continue the downfall movement, towards 11500$, where is actually the resistence point from the EMA 200.
After that it can go both ways, depending if its going to close above/below it.
Total Contrarian Trade/SetupAs much as I believe in "Don't Fight The Fed", I'm starting to think the bottom for the US markets (Technology/SPY/QQQ) may be much closer than some people think.
My cycle research suggests a 2022.5 cycle pattern (late in the second half of 2022) is highly likely. Have we seen that yet? Maybe. Maybe it is the recent bottom in June 2022 and the change of direction (higher) after that bottom.
Here are some of the KEY CYCLE PATTERNS that catch my attention.
9-27~10-8 : Harami, CRUSH, Gap, Top, Consolidation, Temp Bottom, Gap Reversal, Breakdown, Breakaway, Rally, Carryover, Bottom
10-11~10-25: Inside/Breakaway, Harami, CRUSH, GAP, Gap Reversal, Breakdown, Breakaway, Carryover, Temp Bottom, Top/Resistance, Consolidation, CRUSH, GAP, BIG GAP
These patterns, and the fact that I'm seeing some strength in the consumer sector, align with a potential Elliot Wave setup that suggests we may see some extreme volatility as we shift into a moderate Christmas Rally Phase.
It all depends on HOW DEEP (if anything) we see the markets move after the Fed rate decision. If the markets fall back into bullish trending and attempt to move away from lower support levels, then there is a very solid chance we may see an extended Bullish price trend starting a new Christmas Rally phase - possibly lasting into Q1:2023.
The CRUSH patterns are the only thing that concerns me. These are typically very aggressive downward price moves - but can sometimes represent pullbacks in an uptrend. I've seen them happen in very strong uptrends and I'm thinking capital may be shifting away from the same risks that were in the markets in late 2021. We've seen technology and other sectors fall 45% to 76% in some cases.
The contrarian trade (bullish if support holds) may be a very low risk trade right now.

Hope you had benefited from the long trap alert from last week
for a fruitful short opportunity.
Temporary support at the 11772 - 11917 zone.
Possible scenarios:
1) Short if 12234-12080 is resisted
1 extension) Longer term Short Target = 11068-10360
2) Temporary Long on support of 11772 // 11916
Weekly = Higher vol (ave) wide spread down bar close off low
= Demand coming in
Daily = Ave vol down bar close toward high = minor strength
H3: H3 tells a clearer story - temporary support observed

S&P500, ES, NQ, QQQ, SPX, SPY Nasdaq about to go up for big falli dont know how SEO for tradingview works... I posted about the buying before the friday close when nq had dropped to 11800 and everyone was extremely bearish... i posted this idea which you can see here
but its not ranking; hence I am posting this again
we have broken below sept 7 low....
the sentiment is extremely bearish
but the evil plan is to take the price up and squeeze every short before dumping...
already the friday ended up in green daily pin bar and we look good to go
