Nasdaq leads the rally and can move for 3-5 days moreWhile crude oil is declining, tech stocks are gaining momentum: Nasdaq had reached another all-time-high recently and that might not be over: according to statistical studies, it rarely reverses quickly above the upper Bollinger Bands line and the average swing duration is between 17 and 20 days (which gives us several days of potential continuation). The earnings season fuels growth for many technological stocks, and the “sell America” narrative steps back, so we may see Nasdaq growing as shown in the chart below. Don't forget - this is just the idea, always do your own reserch and never forget to manage your risk!

NAS100 Reading Market Structure: When to Trade and When to WaitI'm currently keeping a close eye on the NASDAQ 📉. Price has remained largely range-bound over the past few sessions and continues to show signs of pressure 🔻. While we've seen a short-term rally 🚀, it lacks the conviction and momentum typically seen in stronger trending environments 📊. When comparing the current conditions to previous trend phases, the difference is clear. Structure is unclear, and there's no confirmation of sustained direction yet. As shown on the chart 📈, we previously saw strong bullish momentum followed by a sharp shift, suggesting indecision in the market 🤔. In these situations, patience is key ⏳. It's just as important to know when not to trade as it is to know when to act 🎯. For now, I’m choosing to stay on the sidelines until a clearer trend develops. Not financial advice ⚠️

Nasdaq 100: Bearish Signals Near the All-Time HighNasdaq 100: Bearish Signals Near the All-Time High As the 4-hour chart of the Nasdaq 100 (US Tech 100 mini on FXOpen) shows, the index reached a new all-time high last week. However, the price action suggests that the current pace of growth may not last. Last week’s strong labour market data triggered a significant bullish impulse. However, the upward momentum has been entirely retraced (as indicated by the arrows). The tax cut bill signed on Friday, 4 July, by Trump — which is expected to lead to a significant increase in US government debt — contributed to a modest bullish gap at today’s market open. Yet, as trading progressed during the Asian session, the index declined. This suggests that fundamental news, which could have served as bullish catalysts, are failing to generate sustainable upward movement — a bearish sign. Further grounds for doubt regarding the index's continued growth are provided by technical analysis of the Nasdaq 100 (US Tech 100 mini on FXOpen) chart, specifically: → a bearish divergence on the RSI indicator; → price proximity to the upper boundary of the ascending channel, which is considered resistance. It is reasonable to suggest that the market may be overheated and that bullish momentum is waning. Consequently, a correction may be forming — potentially involving a test of the 22,100 level. This level acted as resistance from late 2024 until it was broken by strong bullish momentum in late June. This article represents the opinion of the Companies operating under the FXOpen brand only.

NAS100 - Stock market is waiting for tariffs!The index is above the EMA200 and EMA50 on the four-hour timeframe and is trading in its ascending channel. Maintaining the ascending channel will lead to the continuation of the Nasdaq's upward path to higher targets, but if it does not rise and corrects towards the demand limits, you can buy the Nasdaq index with appropriate reward and risk. Three months ago, Donald Trump postponed the imposition of severe retaliatory tariffs, granting America’s major trading partners more time to reach new agreements that Washington views as “fairer.” Now, as the White House’s July 9 deadline approaches, only two official trade deals have been finalized—one with the United Kingdom and another with Vietnam. As for China, merely a fragile temporary truce has been reached, which has so far prevented any additional tariffs from being enforced. Although reports suggest promising progress in negotiations with India, Japan, and South Korea, no final agreements have been secured with these countries yet. Interestingly, talks with the European Union—which had previously stalled—have suddenly taken a positive turn, and prospects for a deal with Canada in the coming days have also improved. However, given the limited time left, it seems unlikely that trade agreements with all of America’s 18 key partners will be reached before the deadline. This situation has raised a critical question for the markets: Will Trump set a new deadline for the remaining countries, or will the suspended tariffs be reinstated? The prevailing view is that the U.S. president will once again resort to threats before granting any extensions—this time not merely by reviving the “Liberation Day” tariffs, but also by promising even heavier tariffs to extract the last concessions from the remaining trade partners. U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bassett stated that if no agreements are reached by August 1, tariffs will revert to the levels announced in April. He also emphasized that Washington’s core strategy in these trade talks is to apply maximum pressure. According to Bassett, letters will be sent to various countries, outlining the August 1 deadline for reaching deals. This news, which broke during the market’s closing hours, sparked a wave of risk appetite in the financial markets. In a week when the U.S. economic calendar is notably devoid of major data releases, investors are focusing their attention on the minutes from the Federal Reserve’s June FOMC meeting—a document that could offer fresh insights into the trajectory of interest rates for the second half of the year. June’s strong employment report, which exceeded market expectations, has effectively dashed hopes for an interest rate cut this month. Now, if the positive economic momentum persists, the likelihood of a rate cut in the September meeting may also gradually be priced out by the markets. According to data from Challenger, Gray & Christmas, U.S. employers announced 47,999 job cuts in June, marking a sharp decline from 93,816 in the previous month. Compared to June of last year, layoffs have dropped by 2%. However, total job cuts in the second quarter of 2025 reached 247,256—a 39% increase from the same period last year (177,391) and the highest second-quarter layoff figure since 2020. With no significant economic reports scheduled for the coming days, investors will be closely analyzing Wednesday night’s Fed minutes and the limited remarks from central bank officials—statements where every word has the potential to significantly move the markets.

NAS100 High-Risk Momentum Play with Potential H&S SetupNAS100 is hovering near all-time highs. While a retest of the weekly trendline remains likely, this idea aims to ride the current bullish momentum. The plan anticipates a short-term pullback to recent lows to potentially form a head and shoulders pattern before a move lower toward the weekly trendline. This is a high-risk setup I’d typically avoid, but the strong bullish weekly close adds some weight. Two entries provided - one with a tighter TP for a quicker reaction.

NASDAQ Key Levels July 7 2025If NY fails to reclaim 22,755–780 early in the week, expect a grind back toward 22,644 → 22,600, with 22,520 in play only if volume confirms. Reclaiming and holding above 22,800+ would invalidate this bearish setup. Watch for trap volume, delta reversals, and volume imbalances at all key zones before entering. 22,880 – 🔻 Weekly wick top ➤ Major rejection zone with a stop cluster sitting above. 22,800–820 – Possible NY trap zone ➤ Trap absorption detected here on footprint — watch New York for rejection or breakout. 22,755–22,780 – Retest zone ➤ Multiple trap wicks with low delta on 1H/15M. Likely to bait breakout traders before fading. 22,700 – Structural demand / pivot point ➤ A clean break + hold below = bearish market shift. 22,644 – ✅ Session low / Take Profit 1 ➤ If 22,700 breaks, this is the first clean downside target. 22,600 – Daily value zone ➤ High-probability liquidity target if selling extends below 22,644. 22,520 – Final sweep target ➤ Only likely if New York session sells off hard mid-to-late week.

NAS100 CAUTION - Realistic Perspective!!Dear Friends in Trading, How I see it, This rising channel represents severe overbought greed territory. A very big correction might be around the corner or in the near future. Daily and Weekly RSI Divergence could be forced to re-balance at any time. Keynote: This is not a contradiction of my previous NASDAQ post. Short-Term strong bullish price action can still prevail. But please keep this big picture in mind from here on end. Feel free to ask questions if anything is unclear. I sincerely hope my point of view offers a valued insight. Thank you for taking the time to study my analysis.

Nasdaq Approaches 23,000 Mark for the First TimeOver the past five trading sessions, the U.S. Nasdaq index has posted a gain of more than 1.5%, supported by a recent rise in market confidence that has pushed the equity index to new all-time highs. The NFP employment data released yesterday surprised markets with 147,000 new jobs, compared to the 111,000 expected, reflecting a recovery in the labor market that could ultimately support domestic consumption in the U.S.. This has helped maintain investor confidence in equities, supporting a bullish bias in the Nasdaq in recent sessions. Sustained Uptrend Since the early days of April, the Nasdaq has maintained a solid upward trend, with no relevant signs of selling pressure that would threaten the current bullish structure. As a result, the long-term bias remains clearly bullish within the broader market outlook. However, it's worth noting that a growing sense of indecision has emerged in recent sessions, reflected in the candlestick patterns, which could open the door to short-term bearish corrections. Technical Indicators MACD: The MACD histogram continues to hover around the neutral zero line, indicating a balance in moving average strength during recent sessions. If this pattern continues, it may result in a more defined period of price neutrality in the short term. RSI: The presence of consistent RSI highs, alongside higher price highs in the Nasdaq, has led to the formation of a bearish divergence. This suggests that market equilibrium has been affected by recent bullish momentum, and could lead to price pullbacks in the upcoming sessions. Key Levels to Watch: 23,000 – Psychological barrier: A tentative resistance level in the short term due to the lack of clear technical references. A breakout above this level could reinforce the current bullish bias and signal a more sustained upward trend. 21,800 – Nearby support: An area aligned with a recent neutral technical zone, which may act as relevant support in the event of a short-term pullback. 21,000 – Key support: A level that coincides with the 50-period simple moving average. A break below this level could put the current bullish structure at risk and pave the way for a more significant downward move. Written by Julian Pineda, CFA – Market Analyst

A break below 22,450/VWAP confirms a corrective leg. 30-MINUTE (Neutral to Weak): • Key Levels:  – Descending micro-trendline: 22,725  – Rising support: 22,690  – Session range: High = 22,845 | Low = 22,690 • Summary: Price is coiled near the apex.

Market decision point imminent. 5-MINUTE (Immediate Bear Bias): • Key Levels:  – Live VWAP: 22,752  – 9-EMA sloping down  – Stochastic: mid-range • Summary: Price remains below VWAP and 9-EMA. Short-term sellers in control unless VWAP is reclaimed. ⸻ 📈 Trade Setups 1. Swing Long – Buy the Dip • Let price wash through 22,450–22,350 (H4 wedge floor + VWAP zone) • Enter if:  – 30m bullish engulfing or hammer closes back above 22,450  – AND 5m VWAP is reclaimed • Initial Stop: Below liquidity sweep or 22,300 – whichever is lower – minus 0.25 × ATR(14, H4) ≈ 30 pts → around 22,270 • Targets:  – T1: 22,845  – T2: 23,200  – Leave runner for blue-sky continuation • Comment: With weekly trend. Wait for deep retracement. Great RR ≈ 1:3+ ⸻ 2. Intraday Short – Mean Reversion • Trigger Zone: 22,725–22,760 (broken trendline + 5m VWAP) • Enter if:  – 5m rejection wick or bearish engulfing forms on avg+ volume • Stop: Above 22,800 + buffer (≈ 22,820) • Targets:  – T1: 22,600  – T2: 22,450  – Optional T3: 22,350 (VWAP) • Comment: Counter-trend, so treat as scalp. Tight stops. Demand at least 1:2 RR. ⸻ 3. Breakout Long – Trend Continuation • Entry Criteria:  – 30m close above 22,845 with 150%+ average volume  – 5m bull flag holds above breakout level • Stop:  – First 30m candle close back inside the range  – Or 22,770 (flag base) — whichever happens first • Targets:  – T1: 23,025 (Daily BB)  – T2: 23,300 (measured move) • Comment: Only take if strong volume confirms new participation. Avoid during Asia or illiquid hours. ⸻ ⚙️ Execution & Risk Guidelines • Risk per trade: ≤ 1% account (limit counter-trend trades to 0.5%) • Sizing formula:  Contracts = Account Risk / (Stop pts × $ per pt) • ATR reference:  – ATR(14, H4) ≈ 120 pts  – ATR(14, 30m) ≈ 80 pts • Move stop to break-even once price moves 0.75 × stop distance in your favor • Never run trades #2 and #3 at the same time → directional conflict • Watch out for macro data (e.g., NFP, CPI) — can override intraday structure ⸻ ⏱ What to Watch (In Sequence) 1. Overnight – Does price stay pinned below the 30m 21-EMA, or start to float above it? 2. London Open – First test of the 22,725–22,760 zone: fade or reclaim? 3. NY Open – Volume surge confirms either breakout (#3) or fade setup (#2) 4. End of Day – A close below 22,450 on volume = deeper pullback risk toward 22,000 next week ⸻ 🔍 Final Thoughts The trend is still your friend — but the daily and H4 chart are stretched. Let the trade come to you: • Buy the flush only if we dip into confluence support and reclaim key levels (#1) • Buy the breakout only if high volume confirms continuation (#3) • Everything in-between is a scalp fade (#2) — execute cleanly, with defined risk, and respect trend structure. This is for educational purposes. Fit these into your system and risk tolerance. ⸻

Discount Zone Reversal Play Entered a long position after identifying an short formed W formation within discount territory, mapped from yesterday’s high–low range. Price action showed clear structural symmetry, with the second leg completing at a key demand zone. 📌 Buyside liquidity at 22,692.27 acted as the inducement level—price swept it and respected the zone, signaling smart money accumulation. Key Confluences: - Extended W structure with balanced legs and volume support - Price operating below EQ before trigger, favoring bullish reversal - TP placed just above EQ to anticipate reaction without overextending - Structure confirmed by neckline retest and bullish candle ignition This setup aligns with a classic liquidity sweep and reversal narrative, targeting measured premium zones while managing drawdown with tight risk control. The trade is guided by structure, liquidity, and session timing—a patient play with clean narrative flow.

The index maintains bullish momentum as long as it trades above the key pivot at 22,740. However, a 1H close below 22,730 could trigger a bearish correction toward 22,615. A sustained break below that level may shift the trend to bearish. Key Levels: • Resistance: 22,870 / 23,000 • Support: 22,615 / 22,410
