Weekly Bias for SPX - 10/1/2023Weekly Chart: Traded into last week's bearish engulfing candle and then took out its low.
Traded into a +POI (W+FVG), wicked near MT at 4236.6
Weekly Idea: Because we are bearish but entered into this +POI, with may get a bounce but would look to see if the PWL is taken out for a continuation lower. For now, I'm 505/50 on this mainly because of the W+FVG. A bullish scenario would need to be revisited
Daily Chart: Price took out the PWL and set a low on the Daily in the W+FVG, however, price bounced from the area without making a new high. This is logic to stay on the downside for now. Another thing to note, Friday's close is at the mid point of the weekly range, Weekly high 4347.4, Weekly Low 4243.2, and Weekly mid point 4295.3, finally Weekly close/ Friday closing price 4295.3.
Daily idea: Because of the close and the price failing to make a new high this give reasoning to at least look for the price to take out the PDL and -LP ( $ trend line liquidity) with best case scenario, price taking out the PWL. A bullish scenario would need to be revisited
4H Chart/Idea: We have a 4H-OB and 4H-FVG, one the LTF, do we have price return to mitigate this area? The +breaker is hold price up for now and this will be the first thing that I look at for a response of what price decides to do. The low was made in a +POI, a +OB but will it hold?

Weekly Bias for DXY/GU - 10/1/23Weekly Chart: DXY and GU both have reach POI, on DXY a W-OB and on GU a W+FVG. In this scenario, I'd be looking for DXY to see how we respond to the PWH if we fail to take it out and trade back into last week's range, I'll look to the downside potentially. If we trade through it, the +LP at 107.993 will be the next draw. GU will have to deal with the W+FVG and the YOP which may be a tough task.
Weekly Idea: DXY's strength be the thing I'm watching. This is a good area to fall from and that will spring GU to the up side. A fall lines up with the YOP holding price up on GU. However, if we take out the high on DXY, GU reaches into the YOP
Daily Chart: The first draw is the PDH on DXY and the PDL on GU. We will need to pay attention to how the engulfing candles made on Thursday on DXY/GU are handled and this will be a range that the LTF will need to deal with.
4H Chart: DXY has a small 4H-FVG but the one above it is the one I'm interested in. The PDH has already been taken out and the response to the highs are what I'm looking for. On GU, the PDL hasn't been taken yet but its at risk so, I'll be looking at how price reacts to all of the +POIs (D+FVG,4H+Breaker, and the 4H+FVG, 4H+OB). If DXY fails to push through PDH, well look for price to trade into the 4H+FVG and and the same time I'll be looking at price inside of the 4H-FVG on GU.
Weekly Bias for Nas100 - 10/1/2023Weekly Chart: Price took out the PWL and the August low into a W+OB and we did close positively for the week. We did create the low of a W-FVG (not drawn but, it's there) and price closed near the middle of the weekly range, Weekly High 14906.5, Weekly Low 14429.3, Weekly Mid point 14667.9, Weekly close 14741.8.
Weekly idea: Price took out lows into the W+OB but for now there is a W+FVG below that may be the target. If we take out the PDL, this will be my target into the the W+FVG(H) near 14232.7. In order to turn bullish I will need to see a high taken out and I'll want to see what price does inside the W-FVG.
Daily Chart: Price traded into a D-FVG and set the high near the D-FVG (MT) and left a huge wick with a Friday close near the Mid point of the Weekly range. We took out the bearish engulfing made on Tuesday but by Friday we traded back into it.
Daily Idea: Price leaving that large wick will cause for me to look at how price response to the close, middle and high of the candle. Do we fail inside this wick or take out the high? This is the question I'll be looking to answer. If we fail, I'll be looking to take out the PDL and THURS PDL. If we take out the high, price should close the D-FVG and trade into another D-FVG just above (not drawn) with the low near 14974.1.
4H Chart: Price left a 4H-OB inside the daily wick and the low was made inside a 4H+FVG(H) 14661.5. There is a +CHOCH above THURS PDH and the this is my hesitation to go full on bearish on the short term. There is also a 4H+Breaker that Friday could not take out as well.
4H Idea: I want to see if price will take out the 4H-OB or the PDL
GbpJpy This is what makes the most sense to me heading in to October...
Monthly wicks respected although the monthly candle actually closed in it's lower 3rd I'm bullish on all TF's
181.60 is a valid MP, OB, TL/Retest, FVG and last weeks opening price...
IF we pull back this far we will also be hitting the 0.7 fib level and I fully expect this level to hold

EURAUD: When China's news make Aussie and other Asians strong! My dear friends,
Thursday, 14 September, 2023 and ECB interest rate decision is on the way. We'll wait for confirmations.
But before ECB meeting, series of several bad economical news over China's financial stability were published. Market reacted to them rationally. Suddenly the red dragon start to regain it's reputation. Good news for China means stronger Aussie, Kiwi and Yen!
A personal belief: Markets are not optimist to China's long-term relations with the free world and it makes them avoid longer term investing on Asian currencies. We could expect a more bearish weeks for them in next months, however, we don't hold that much so a mid-term bearish correction could be a opportunity for us!
Regarding the weekly chart, some more corrective weekly candles are expected.

Considering the daily timeframe, market structure has changed so there could be a stop hunt around 1.68950

The horizontal level could be a high probable and good R-to-R entry point.

Weekly analyze for NQU2023Hello fellow trader.
in my analyze for this week 09/03/2023 i project a down close candle for NQU2023 if u open your weekly chart u will see the NQ reached an weekly Bearish OB and respected it, then if you move to the daily chart u will see a BISI/fvg bellow and a daily bullish OB i think the market will target that level for the upcoming days or weeks if we stay bellow the weekly Bearish OB ofc
Swing Trade on SPXNow that I have 2 funded accounts, going to use one for swing trades with around 1-2 lots just cause I'd like to have 1 funded account on a higher TF level. I find Swing Trading 1 account will let me keep my higher TF bias in check or analyzed consistently without choice, and so I am starting it off with this SPX trade.
We've had Equal Highs into a previous FVG around the 50% mark of said FVG. So I am placing a short here. Wicks show the damage done to that liquidity. I'm quite sure we are going to head downward on a daily level toward the next FVG. I have a bearish bias this week as long as we stay below the weekly open.
We are also sitting in Buyside Liquidity while we had pretty good displacement from the downtrend and this displacement has brought us to retest the break in market structure.
TP1 will be at 50% of the FVG, and TP2 will be at the fully closed FVG.
If that were to play out there are some Bullish Order Blocks formed below the FVG, and that would be where I can start to look for a long. Depends on what happens over the next few days.
Looking to stay in this trade to around Friday or Monday; Really depends on the price action. If the trade hits and we react strong off that FVG I will be looking for continuation trades to the bullish first Bullish OB.
My stop is set at the Equal Highs because if we return to those double Equal Highs there is a high probability we break above it a bit. So just trying to keep losses minimal with a bit of wiggle room to those highs. Let's see.
Gold has attracted buyers!So many long-trades has been opened by traders recently, however, still there slightly more buyers in the market.
If you have lost the long opportunity on August 22nd you've got the chance to enter around 1891.500 again. However, There is another chance around 1909.400.
We'll risk half of our normal risk
GBPUSD LONG FOLLOWED BY SHORTS *PREDICTION*As we can see on the charts the current trend is bullish - which in fact is the pullback in the higher TF (HIGHER TF - BEARISH).
We are about to enter a buy zone - only will be confirmed by the reaction off the OB, if we see a solid rejection (which will implicate the confirmation of buys) we shall follow it up to the next OB zone seen on the left hand side.
With this comes pullbacks as it reaches EQH (Equal Highs) - when an equal high occurs it will 9/10 follow with an pull back to an POI.
This will continue to the most probable OB at the top of the zone, it will most probably sweep the liquidity from the top zone also so beware of where you end up leaving your SL.
ENTRIES ONLY TO BE MADE ON LOWER TIME FRAME.
The following after the touch we will also wait again for confirmations of the short position. If achieved we will expect the lows liquidity to be swept, giving us a massive swing opportunity.
so what now ?this week's been a bearish week so far , BUT ;
we are still making HH & HL in HTF , and every break had the characteristics of a BOS .
second leg into an order-block means trend reversals to me and its not a professional idea its only based on my own experience .
not gonna lie ,i didn't see prices bellow 25K as a possibility .so im not perfect . (guess u already knew this 😂)
for me there is only two possible ways ; we either go for 42K liquidity , or come back for what was once a market bottom bellow 20K , which is BAD !!
me personally am now bullish , but with more protective stop considerations !
i presented my roadmap in the chart i uploaded , i will comment later ideas down here , so ... make ur own researches and please feel free to comment if u have any questions or ideas to help each other out ! 😉
