Pre-Market Analysis: May 9th, 2024 $ES & $SPYMarket Observations: The S&P 500 futures NYSE:ES and S&P 500 ETF AMEX:SPY have consolidated with low volume over the past two days. Trading Strategy: Given the current range-bound price action, I am not actively seeking trades around the 5200-5210 level. Instead, I am looking for a breakout from this range accompanied by increased volume to establish a directional trend. Bullish Scenario: A sustained breakout above 5210 suggests a potential rally towards 5240. Entry: Long after a pullback that finds support above 5210. Note: Short positions may be considered if weakness emerges around 5210. Bearish Scenario: A sustained break below 5200 could lead to a decline towards 5180 and potentially 5150. Given the recent buying pressure, this decline would likely be swift. Entry: Short positions may be considered, but with limited size due to the potential for quick reversals. Overall: This analysis provides a framework for potential trading opportunities based on the current market conditions. Like and Retweet if you found this helpful!

Potential Ascending Triangle (NQ Futures)NQ Futures could be trying to setup an ascending triangle to catch bears short at the bottom with major upside potential with a breakout and confirm. Will almost certainly coincide with data/news that will either play out a bear trap or a bull trap on the same timeframe for the next let the market takes. Often these patterns forming at the bottom of a range end up being bull traps but anything can happen and it's best to be prepared for whatever happens.

4H Inverted Cup & Handle NAS100Analyzing NAS100: Identifying Long-Term Trends and Potential Selling Positions Introduction: In this video, we'll dive into a long-term analysis of NAS100, uncovering key patterns and trends that could inform our trading decisions. By examining the inverted cup and handle pattern and the emerging downtrend on the 4-hour timeframe, we aim to provide clarity on potential selling positions and assess the overall sentiment in the market. Identifying the Inverted Cup and Handle Pattern: The inverted cup and handle pattern is a classic technical formation characterized by a downward price movement followed by a consolidation period resembling a cup, followed by another downward movement forming a handle. This pattern often signals a bearish reversal, indicating a shift in sentiment from bullish to bearish. Spotting the Forming Downtrend on the 4H Timeframe: On the 4-hour timeframe, we observe the formation of a downtrend, marked by consecutive lower highs and lower lows. This trend suggests sustained selling pressure and reinforces the bearish outlook for NAS100 in the near term. Target Levels for Selling Positions: Based on our analysis, we have identified multiple levels that could serve as potential targets for selling positions. These levels are strategically chosen based on key support and resistance zones, Fibonacci retracement levels, and other technical indicators. Traders may consider these levels as entry points for short-selling NAS100, aiming to capitalize on the anticipated downward movement. Clarity of Stance on NAS100: Our analysis leaves no room for ambiguity regarding our stance on NAS100. The convergence of the inverted cup and handle pattern with the forming downtrend on the 4-hour timeframe strengthens our conviction in the bearish outlook for NAS100. This clarity enables traders to make informed decisions aligned with the prevailing market dynamics. Signs of Bullish Euphoria Waning: Finally, it's essential to acknowledge the signs indicating that the bullish euphoria in the market may be losing steam. Market sentiment plays a significant role in driving price movements, and recognizing shifts in sentiment can be invaluable for traders. As we assess the technical landscape of NAS100, we remain vigilant for further indications of a weakening bullish bias. In conclusion, our analysis of NAS100 underscores the importance of understanding long-term trends and patterns in shaping trading strategies. By leveraging technical analysis tools and staying attuned to market dynamics, traders can navigate the markets with confidence and precision. Thank you for watching.

Don't Panic! Nasdaq Bear Breakout May Signal Trading RangeNasdaq Market Analysis Report Overview The Nasdaq Composite Index has displayed a bearish breakout from a prominent top pattern on the daily chart. This pattern followed a strong bullish trend, indicating a potential shift into a trading range rather than a fully-fledged bear trend. I'll analyze where the market could find a bottom, explore potential trading strategies, and offer a market outlook. Bear Breakout and Trading Range Potential While the April breakout was strong, a transition period into a trading range remains likely due to the preceding bull market. Identifying the range's bottom is crucial for pinpointing trading opportunities. Support Levels and Market Direction Key support areas to watch include: - Previous All-Time High: A natural support level. - 200-Day Moving Average: Historically significant indicator. - 50% Pullback: Common retracement level in major trends. - Weekly Bull Channel Trendline: Provides underlying support. - Round Number Levels: $16000 and $15000 offer psychological support. Market sentiment will be influenced by whether bears continue to hold the current scenario, preventing any substantial breakouts above previous highs. Trading Strategies - Bullish Approach: Consider selling volatility (e.g., put spreads with 45 DTE) near the identified support levels. - Bearish Approach: Selling around current prices with a stop at the recent all-time high could work. Look for double/triple tops or trade resistance from the 50-day MA. Conclusion The Nasdaq likely faces extended correction towards either the 200-day MA or the weekly bull channel's lower trendline. Price action around these areas will provide clues to the market's true direction, allowing for suitable adjustments to your trading strategies.

All you should Know about Nasdaq (ICT)In fundamental analysis, we observe a market surge following a liquidity uptake beyond the all-time high, marking a new peak in NQ. However, inflation rates indicate that the Federal Reserve is hesitant to reduce interest rates. Even with a 5% interest rate, inflation is on the rise again. This suggests that the Fed may abandon the idea of lowering interest rates and maintain them at 5% until the year's end. Nevertheless, last week witnessed positive outcomes from companies such as Tesla, Microsoft, and Google, which revitalized market sentiment and led to a resurgence. However, concerns linger regarding the possibility of the Fed raising interest rates by half point, which could pose challenges for the market. In technical analysis, we observe the price targeting the sell side for Tuesday, February 30th, 2024, retracing to the gap on Monday, April 15th, 2024, above the equilibrium and within the premium, allowing new sellers to enter. The next target is the order block from Tuesday, January 16th, 2024.

More possible downside for NQPrice has moved for ERL(ATH) to IRL(Weekly Bullish OB) which created a MSS on the weekly time frame. Price has retraced nicely off of the Weekly OB and is now entering premium of the current dealing range on the daily - This week we will not trade on Monday as there is no news and will be expecting accumulation. - If market sentiment has truly shifted I am expecting to see Monday accumulation, Tuesday to create the high of the week into that daily FVG, and then expansion lower to reach for previous weeks low. - If that Daily FVG is violated I’ll be expecting ATH again.

Nasdaq: Support? Check! ✅The support at 17,372 points seems to be holding: Yesterday, the Nasdaq touched down on the red line once again, but immediately used it as a springboard for a further upward swing. This is good news for our primary scenario, as there is still a long way to go until the top of the magenta wave (i) is reached. If the Nasdaq continues to defend the 17,372-points mark so bravely, it will keep its distance from our (45% likely) alternative scenario of a new wave-alt.(ii) low in the blue Target Zone (coordinates: 16,424 – 15,118 points).

MNQ Mid-Week Outlook 4/24Gone private but still here grinding everyday. Im expecting a weak NQ NAS NASDAQ NAS100 whatever you want to call it. Short story is buyside purged and HTF bearish delivery. Long story is yet to be told via lower time frame price discovery expression. My bias is to the downside. Target is a standard deviation of the opening price projected below the open price. That's a low hanging objective if price follows this narrative, however a run lower would not surprise me.

Nasdaq Analysis: Fibonacci Retracement and RSI DivergenceThe Nasdaq has reached an intriguing point around the 17200 area, where it sits at the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level from the previous swing low. Price action appears to be responding to this level on lower timeframes, and we've also observed a divergence on the RSI indicator on the H4 timeframe, coinciding with the price attempting to move out of oversold conditions. We are considering a scalp position with a potential take profit at the 38.2% Fibonacci level, and possibly at the Point of Control (POC) Volume for an extended take profit.

$SPX over perform NQ | Shift towards valueBeen tracking this one for weeks now as we've formed a bottom and reclaimed support. We think across markets, we're seeing a macro shift away from speculative tech and towards value. TVC:SXXP (European SPX) could be forming a bottom vs SPX as well. What this over performance could look like remains to be seen. Could be more defensive in a downward move or if we catch support, it could be over performance to the upside. Regardless, the real message here is the shift away from US tech for the foreseeable future. Finally breaking through to bull side RSI on the weekly and AO flipping bullish. not touching NQ for a good while. Something to note is the original support bottom on this chart was the Nov '21 top across markets and Jan '23 was market bottom.

NQ-M2024: Q2 positional short trade setuphello TradingView members, after all kinds of analysis done, when possible future events taken into account, now it is time to translate into risk management analysis and bias. this is related only to the current leg, we may go lower than the target as long the stop-loss is not triggered. the idea is about sharing this setup is to allow also others to consider a possibility, to think about a scenario that may mature into the right trade setup. do not treat the whole as holy bible but as risk management practice for a bias. it is just an idea. personally, I do trade this setup also in narrower time frames and I would scalp in addition during the process, but each person has own strategy and own approach to the market and trading the market. feel free to comment, try to do that in a productive manner, so the oversight over this idea would allow fine tuning and improvements. let us see how the market to show this setup in a hindsight. again, feel free to comment and to contact me directly. sincerely, all the best, Fluke

Will NVDA Gap Hold for ES?E-mini S&P (June) / E-mini NQ (June) S&P, yesterday’s close: Settled at 5062.25, down 30.25 NQ, yesterday’s close: Settled at 17,658.50, down 222.25 E-mini S&P and E-mini NQ futures finished lower for the fourth session in a row.

Stocks Slammed, Is a Reprieve In Order?E-mini S&P (June) / E-mini NQ (June) S&P, yesterday’s close: Settled at 5104.00, down 63.50 NQ, yesterday’s close: Settled at 17,876.25, down 303.00 E-mini S&P and E-mini NQ futures finished sharply lower for the second day in a row as both geopolitics and rising rates act as major headwinds to investors’ risk appetite. We are viewing this pullback as healthy and timely with price action in both testing into the aftermath of NVDA’s February 21st earnings report, which was a pivotal catalyst in the market’s next leg higher. While we do not view the driving narratives (geopolitics and rates) to be stale, we do believe a reprieve in prices is in order? Major three-star resistance in the E-mini S&P comes in at 5127-5131.75, and this is a modest first target upon an attempted rebound, with 5147.25-5153.75 marking a 50% back into the week’s range. To the downside, a failure to hold first key support at 5094 would erode this thesis and encourage another wave of selling. As for the E-mini NQ, the February 21st settlement comes in at 17,767 and stands as a line in the sand that has so far withstood an overnight test, but a break below here would also encourage added selling.

The Local Line in the Sand for ESE-mini S&P (June) / E-mini NQ (June) S&P, yesterday’s close: Settled at 5207.75, down 52.50 NQ, yesterday’s close: Settled at 18,196.75, down 163.00 E-mini S&P and E-mini NQ futures finished lower after a barrage of negative news. CPI for March was a touch warmer than expected, coming in roughly one-tenth higher across the board before a poor 10-year Note auction lifted yields further. The U.S. 10-year Note yield rose by 20bps from 4.36 to 4.56, and according to the CME Group’s FedWatch Tool, the odds for a rate cut in June fell to 16.9%, while July shows a 43.7% probability. Now, we brace for an ECB policy decision, PPI data at 7:30 am CT, producer prices are a leading indicator of consumer prices and a 30-year Bond auction at noon CT. This has certainly put stock index futures on their back foot. Still, on a positive note, the low in each of the E-mini S&P and E-mini NQ that traded in the immediate aftermath of the CPI release was never taken out during the intraday session. For the E-mini S&P this low aligns to create a critical line in the sand with the 50% retracement back to the February 13th low at 5163.75-5176.50. We will look for construction above here to help shift tides more positively as the rest of the week unfolds.

However, price action held major three-star support (newly adjusted to 84.55-84.69 and 84.90-85.10) before geopolitical premium brought a fresh bid as news flow called an Iranian strike on Israel imminent. Price action is again slipping into the onset of U.S. hours and with support well-defined, we will look to a pivot and point of balance at 86.02.

Helping you map out your gameplanE-mini S&P (June) / E-mini NQ (June) S&P, yesterday’s close: Settled at 5253.25, up 0.25 NQ, yesterday’s close: Settled at 18,295.00, down 5.75 E-mini S&P and E-mini NQ futures were little changed to start the week as traders and investors await tomorrow’s CPI slate. Given last Thursday's fallout and Friday's stronger-than-expected headline job creation, one could perceive the consolidation as healthy. While there was some construction within the Treasury complex yesterday, we must also keep a close eye on rates as we move through the data-heavy middle of the week. Price action in E-mini S&P futures held an early low yesterday after the opening bell, creating first key support at 5245.25-5246.50, while E-mini NQ futures have a similar mark with major three-star support at 18,228-18,249. The bears must test and violate these levels in order to potentially break the consolidation ahead of CPI. To the upside, a move out above second key resistance aligning with Friday’s high at 5268.75-5272.50 in the E-mini S&P and 18,406-18,446 in the E-mini NQ could begin to spark a pre-CPI melt, back into the thick of the damage, where indices began rolling over Thursday.

NQ 4H Analysis - Range BoundThe SEED_ALEXDRAYM_SHORTINTEREST2:NQ 4H is currently in a range, marked by a shifting structure to the downside. Despite attempts to regain momentum, buyers have been unsuccessful, as demonstrated by the annotated sweep on the chart. We are now in a holding pattern, waiting for a direction to be chosen. While the overall trend remains bullish, we are in a cautious phase due to the market forming a balanced range. There is a bullish internal structure flip, followed by a notably bullish 4H bar. However, the sweep above previous highs indicates that buyers were not ready to drive prices higher. Attempts to rebound on every previous internal lower high fell short, leading us back to where the internal structure flip occurred. Buyers emerged again off of the internal structure flip high, but unless a higher low is formed and prior highs are finally surpassed, it seems that the momentum is dwindling. This could potentially signal the onset of buyer exhaustion and early indications of a larger timeframe pullback at the beginning stages.
