Analysis for Nasdaq, Oil, and GoldNasdaq The Nasdaq closed lower due to disappointment following Nvidia's new product announcement. On the daily chart, the MACD failed to converge with the Signal line, turning downward, and strong selling pressure emerged. If the weekly chart shows a candle with an upper wick breaking below the 10-day moving average, a dead cross on the MACD is likely. On the daily chart, the index has found support twice at the 60-day moving average. However, if it breaks below this level during the current selling wave, there’s potential for further declines toward the monthly 5-day moving average at 20,880. The 240-minute chart has triggered a sell signal around the MACD zero line, indicating the possibility of steep declines if selling continues. The Nasdaq is currently forming a pattern of lower highs, favoring sell-side strategies. However, with Friday's non-farm payroll data approaching, pre-market movement may remain range-bound. Oil Oil closed higher, finding support at the 5-day moving average. Although it hasn’t pulled back to the 3-week moving average on the weekly chart, continued gains this week could result in a candlestick pattern that reflects support at this level. Strong buying momentum persists on the daily chart, making buy-side strategies advantageous. Selling opportunities may arise if oil challenges the previous high at $76. The steep divergence between current prices and daily moving averages suggests the need for some price or time correction to bring the moving averages closer. On the 240-minute chart, a sell signal emerged but was followed by a short-term rebound. Given the divergence and angles of the MACD and Signal lines, an immediate breakout to the upside seems unlikely. If prices rise but the MACD fails to form a golden cross, a pullback is likely. Avoid chasing the rally; instead, focus on buying dips at key levels and selling at highs. Gold Gold closed higher with an upper wick, showing significant volatility following economic data releases. On the daily chart, gold continues to consolidate within a range. As Friday’s non-farm payroll data approaches, further consolidation is likely, so avoid chasing buying at highs or selling at lows. The MACD and Signal lines on the daily chart show minimal divergence, indicating a range-bound movement. On the 240-minute chart, another buy signal has appeared, but given the upcoming data releases, it’s more practical to approach this as part of a range-bound strategy rather than expecting a breakout. Exercise caution and focus on range-trading until clearer trends emerge. ■Pre-Market Trading Strategies Nasdaq - Range-bound Market -Buy Levels: 21,280 / 21,230 / 21,160 / 21,060 / 20,990 -Sell Levels: 21,450 / 21,505 / 21,555 / 21,600 / 21,680 Oil - Bullish Market -Buy Levels: 74.20 / 73.80 / 73.10 / 72.70 -Sell Levels: 74.90 / 75.40 / 76.40 / 77.20 Gold - Range-bound Market -Buy Levels: 2,659 / 2,654 / 2,649 / 2,644 / 2,635 -Sell Levels: 2,669 / 2,676 / 2,681 These strategies are applicable only during pre-market hours, with profit-taking and stop-loss levels set as follows: Nasdaq: 15 points, Oil and Gold: 15–20 ticks.

| NASDAQ | Weekly outlook for NFP week.This week is active in terms of volatility, with JOLTS today at 10 AM, Unemployment Claims + FOMC tomorrow, and NFP on Friday. The price shows a Market Maker Buy model framework on the daily chart, combined with a weekly distribution framework. I would like to see a run at the liquidity generated by yesterday's economic news driver, although there is SMT divergence with ES! so it might not happen. My ultimate target for the coming weeks is to visit the all-time high (ATH). In the short term, the targets are yesterday's high and the high of the original consolidation of the MMBM framework on the daily chart.

MNQ - Watch yesterday's London low carefully, we should rip highYou can see this play out much better on the 1 min chart: The long and short story is that we have liquidity sitting on top of us and the bottom of current London session. What they'll likely do is cover the entire daily session with liquidity from where yesterday's high's going to lows left off. Take price down to to "too much of an obvious liquidity point" (equal lows). I would expect that they induce everyone to long there, sharply take everyone out, but not go into the previous London low yet. They will force people to chase the low, providing liquidity on the backside, into yesterday's London low (which is daily low also). Since it is a Tuesday, you get your market highs/lows on Tuesday apx 70% of the time statistically.... So I would expect the market to RIP super high from there and take out all of the sandwiched liquidity that will likely be engineered from what was left over from yesterday's AM/PM sessions, and the liquidity that will be engineered today. Look for a very strong long opportunity at the bottom of Yesterday's London session low. Should be able to take it to the high today.

Pre-Market Analysis for Nasdaq, Oil, and Gold Futures The Nasdaq closed higher with an upper wick on the daily chart. As mentioned previously, this week is expected to show buying pressure at the beginning, followed by selling pressure towards the latter half. After the 240-minute chart's buy signal, the daily chart's MACD is moving closer to the Signal line, indicating buying momentum. However, achieving a complete golden cross appears challenging due to the divergence and angle. The 21,900–22,000 range is considered a short-term high zone, where the market might either sharply drop after forming an upper wick or move sideways before failing the golden cross, leading to a downward shift in the MACD and a subsequent sell-off. Notably, Nvidia, which has been driving the current index, continues to show strength. Monitoring Nvidia's previous high as a resistance point will be crucial. While the 240-minute chart exhibits strong buying pressure, the steep angle of the recent surge suggests that managing risk and opting for selling opportunities near the highs—rather than buying on dips—would be more advantageous. Additionally, keep an eye on key economic indicators such as the ISM Services Index and JOLTS report, which are scheduled for release today. Crude oil closed lower with an upper wick. Given its recent rapid surge, crude oil's daily chart shows significant divergence from the 5-day moving average. It is advantageous to focus on selling at the highs in this scenario. If the price pulls back to the 240-day moving average, observing whether it finds support will be critical. This week, oil could pull back to the 3-week moving average on the weekly chart and then rebound. Therefore, caution is advised against chasing the rally, and selling near previous highs would be prudent. However, buying on dips near the 3-week moving average could present an opportunity. On the longer-term 240-minute chart, a bearish candlestick at the high has triggered a sell signal. It would be wise to anticipate potential sharp declines and prioritize selling during rebounds. For buying opportunities, it is recommended to act cautiously and at significantly lower levels. Gold closed lower with a lower wick. Ahead of Friday’s non-farm payroll data, gold is likely to remain range-bound in a consolidation phase. On the weekly chart, gold faces resistance from moving averages, and this week’s key data releases may determine its trend. On the daily chart, while a buy signal was generated, gold failed to make a significant surge, leading to the MACD and Signal line moving sideways. With market flows becoming more uncertain, a range-bound strategy is advisable. On the 240-minute chart, gold could form a triangular consolidation pattern in the short term. Until Friday, trading within a range would be the most effective approach. The weather has turned colder with a cold wave sweeping in, and flu season is here. Please take care of your health, and I wish you successful trading today! ■Nasdaq - Range-bound Market -Buy Levels: 21,660 / 21,565 / 21,495 / 21,450 -Sell Levels: 21,885 / 21,940 / 22,005 / 22,045 / 22,110 ■Oil - Bullish Market -Buy Levels: 72.80 / 71.90 / 71.00 -Sell Levels: 73.60 / 74.20 / 74.85 ■Gold - Range-bound Market -Buy Levels: 2,641 / 2,635 / 2,625 -Sell Levels: 2,652 / 2,658 / 2,666 / 2,672

Tuesday: Make Your Day a Payday with NASDAQ 25.01.07Hello, this is Greedy All-Day. Today’s analysis focuses on the NASDAQ. Monday Trading Results Buy Signals: The green boxes marked the buy entry zones for Monday’s session. Sell Signals: No sell entries were triggered, so there is no commentary for sell trades. Outcome: Both the first and second buy entries were activated, and all targets were achieved. Profit: The price moved a total of 321 points, resulting in approximately $6,400 in profit per contract. How Should We Approach Today’s Market? Looking at the daily chart, the price appears to have entered the supply zone within the green box range, which spans 21619 to 21896. While Monday’s bullish candle demonstrated strength, the upper wick formed during the U.S. session's close indicates that bullish momentum was met with selling pressure. This leaves a less-than-ideal setup for the bulls. The trend is likely to continue in the direction of the breakout from this supply zone. Today’s Trading Strategy Buy Perspective: Entry Trigger: A breakout above both the resistance trendline and Monday’s high at 21897 is recommended for a conservative buy entry. Target Levels: First resistance: The yellow box, which contains the purple resistance trendline. Beyond this, the maximum target lies at 22111. Scenario Analysis for Bulls: Should the price rally, the green box zones (previous lows) will form a double bottom structure, providing a strong foundation for continued upside. A breakout above 22111 would confirm a larger double bottom pattern, potentially paving the way for a rally toward previous highs or even new all-time highs. Sell Perspective: Entry Trigger: A break below the ascending trendline and Monday’s corrective low at 21619 serves as the sell signal. Target Levels: Maximum target: 21520 Beyond this, further downside is possible; however, key support zones are unclear due to differing stair-step patterns during recent rallies and corrections. Conclusion The NASDAQ is at a critical juncture, balancing between bullish potential and bearish risks: For Buyers: Watch for a breakout above 21897 for potential upside to 22111 and beyond. For Sellers: Monitor a breakdown below 21619, with 21520 as the initial target. Be prepared for both scenarios, as the market continues to provide dynamic opportunities. Let’s stay sharp and trade wisely. 🚀

NQ: 118th trading session - recapNO TRADES TODAY I'm basically just going over everything that has happened today. So, as explained: Overall condition was ranging, although we had some bullish movement quite recently. This basically is just telling me that the price action today has a higher chance of ranging. Now, almost everyday price will start to consolidate in some sort of way after the opening (or even hours after it). This can be in form of tilted ranges to the upside/ downside, or overall just one big range (with smaller ranges within), OR, like today: Some small ranges. Now, my main edge is profiting off of bigger moves and what I call "moving days" (= price doesn't stay in one range). This doesn't happen often, that's why I don't trade all the time. That's also it is SO important to look at the opening price action and bullish/ bearish momentum, as it can often give us a picture of what COULD happen. And to noone's surprise: An opening like today, or overall a rangy/ no momentum ahh opening often signals a rather ranging day. That's why I am now creating a really simple strategy based off of these ranging conditions. It's really just raw price action mixed with momentum and chart analysis. I'm gonna post more often now, it is actually pretty fun. This is also for my astonishing 13 followers 💯
