NAS100 ICT Smart Money Concept Analysis | April 14, 2025🔍 Overview: This chart breaks down the NAS100 (US100 Cash CFD) price action using ICT and SMC principles. We've identified a clear market structure shift and multiple order blocks (OB), fair value gaps (FVG), and imbalance zones. 📌 Key Highlights: 4H 15MIN Order Block (OB): Price retraced to the 15-minute OB before showing bullish momentum. Market Structure Shift (MSS): MSS confirmed after price broke above the internal structure. Liquidity Sweep: Previous equal highs taken out, indicating a liquidity grab before potential reversal. Premium vs. Discount Zones: Price currently trading in a premium zone, close to a 15MIN supply OB. Confluence Zone: Multiple SMC elements align (OB + FVG + MSS), suggesting high probability setup. 📈 Expectations: Price may react to the current 15MIN supply zone and give a short opportunity targeting lower imbalance or internal structure lows. If broken cleanly, we could see continuation toward higher HTF targets. 💬 Feel free to comment your thoughts or questions below.

Nasdaq 100 Opens with Bullish GapTrump Exempts Electronics from Tariffs; Nasdaq 100 Opens with Bullish Gap Despite the weekend, the news flow remained intense amid the escalating trade war. According to media reports: → Certain tech products, including those made by Apple, have been exempted from Trump’s tariffs. → Trump announced he would make a significant statement regarding semiconductor tariffs on Monday, 14 April. Stock Indices React to Trump’s Tariff Moves These announcements were taken positively by the markets. As shown on the chart of the Nasdaq 100 index (US Tech 100 mini on FXOpen), the new week opened with a bullish gap exceeding 1.5% – a stronger performance than the S&P 500 (US SPX 500 mini on FXOpen), which also saw a bullish gap. This may suggest that market participants are cautiously optimistic that the sweeping tariff measures might be eased through exemptions, delays, or negotiation concessions. Nevertheless, the CNN Business Fear & Greed Index remains in "extreme fear" territory, despite inching higher compared to last week. As of this morning, the Nasdaq 100 (US Tech 100 mini on FXOpen) has recovered approximately 15% from its 2025 low. Technical Analysis: Nasdaq 100 (US Tech 100 mini on FXOpen) Seven days ago, we plotted an ascending blue channel and suggested that its lower boundary could act as support – which has indeed played out. With the latest data in hand, there is reason to believe that bulls may now be aiming to push the price up toward the channel’s median line. However, as indicated by the arrows on the chart, this median appears to have shifted from acting as support to acting as resistance. Bulls may also face headwinds from the wide bearish candle to the left, which was formed in reaction to Trump's tariff announcements. According to Smart Money Concept methodology, this area – marked by a bearish Fair Value Gap (highlighted with a rectangle) – may now serve as resistance.

Trade the Structure: NAS100 Possible Retrace & Buy OpportunityThe NAS 100 recently broke its market structure after a twist in trade policy—with Donald Trump delaying tariffs by 90 days—which sparked a robust rally. On the 4‑hour chart, we're looking for a bullish setup where the initial surge might be followed by a pullback into a sideways accumulation zone. This consolidation is expected to form a "spring" pattern—a brief retest that could trap sellers—followed by a clear break of market structure that signals a renewed upward move. The entry is ideally on the breakout, backed by supportive volume, while risk management is maintained with a stop-loss positioned just below the range if/when price retraces into support. 🚀📈💰

Market on Edge: Tariffs, Tension, and Market Turmoil(The following is for informational purposes only and reflects personal opinions, not investment advice. Please exercise your own judgment before making any financial decisions.) In the coming weeks, the U.S. stock market is likely to remain driven by news flow, with investors closely watching the Trump administration’s policies on tariffs. Last week, market sentiment remained extreme fearful as the impact of the tariff measures continued to ripple through the markets. The U.S. bond market sell-off prompted President Trump to announce on Wednesday a 90-day delay on tariff implementation for countries other than China. This announcement triggered a sharp market rebound that forced many short sellers to cover their positions. However, as the tariff delay did not fundamentally resolve the underlying uncertainty surrounding trade policies, the market failed to sustain its gains on Thursday and Friday. At present, U.S.-China trade tensions continue to escalate, and no successful trade agreement has been announced yet. The market is seeking more concrete positive developments—such as tax cuts from the Trump administration, or the signing of trade agreements with major economies that include tariff reductions—before uncertainty can be lifted and a meaningful rebound achieved. For now, it is better to remain patient and let the news develop, with minimal trading activity. Market direction will largely depend on future actions from the Trump administration and the Federal Reserve, making it difficult to rely on technical analysis alone to determine the market trend. Currently, the 19,988–20,382 range serves as a critical resistance zone. A breakout above 20,382, sustained over time, would indicate that bulls are gaining control. Conversely, if the price stays consistently below 20,275, it suggests that bears remain dominant. Until clear, favorable news emerges, further downside in the market is possible. However, shorting at these levels also carries significant risk, as any policy shift or positive announcement from Trump could trigger another sharp rebound—similar to what occurred last Wednesday.

US 100 - Ranges overview Let's see what the charts are telling us on US 100. Just like US 30 US 100 retraced and is currently in a redistribution phase. From a HTF, as long as we hold 16771.6 expect us aggressively trade towards 19000 and 20500. IF we fail to hold 16771.6 expect us to retrace towards the 16771.6 and 15201 range. Any clean close below 16771.6 and the market will aggressively seek the sellside liquidity around 15201. As always WAIT FOR THE MARKET TO SHOW YOU ITS HAND. Stay safe and never risk more than 1-5% of your capital per trade. The following analysis is merely a price action based analysis and does not constitute financial advice in any form.

Likely Bullish Gap at Open Followed by a Sharp Drop📈 US100 – Likely Bullish Gap at Open Followed by a Sharp Drop 📉 On the 15-minute chart of the US100, we can see a corrective structure forming within an ascending channel, likely representing wave (B) of a larger correction. The price is currently near the top boundary of the channel, around 18,872.1. 🔍 Key Technical Highlights: Clear prior bearish impulse. Ongoing corrective move within a rising channel. ABC correction forming inside the channel. Potential rising wedge, suggesting bullish exhaustion. 📌 Main Hypothesis: I expect the market to open with a bullish gap, potentially reaching or briefly exceeding the 18,872.1 level, before starting a stronger downward move toward 17,411.8, which aligns with a key support zone and broader trendline confluence. 📊 Key Levels: Resistance: 18,872.1 (ideal reversal area) Target Support: 17,411.8 ⚠️ Alternative Scenario: A strong breakout and consolidation above the channel could invalidate the bearish setup and suggest a continuation to the upside. 💡 Conclusion: This move would fit well within a broader corrective pattern, offering a technical pullback before any potential continuation. I’ll be watching the open closely for confirmation. 💼 Trade Idea: 🔹 Strategy: Short from resistance 🔹 Suggested Entry: 18,850 – 18,880 (potential gap zone and upper channel resistance) 🔹 Stop Loss: Above 18,920 (outside channel and above recent highs) 🔹 Take Profit: 17,500 – 17,450 (key support zone / technical target) 🔹 Risk/Reward Approximation: 1:4 🧠 Wait for price action confirmation (rejection, bearish engulfing candle, or intraday structure break before entering).

Symmetrical Triangle: Bullish or Bearish Breakout?Description: The NASDAQ 100 (NAS100) has formed a symmetrical triangle on the 15-minute timeframe, indicating a consolidation phase after a 5.4% drop. The price is near the triangle's apex, suggesting that a significant directional move is imminent. Here are the key levels and possible scenarios: Bullish Scenario: Entry: Breakout above 18,500 on volume. Target: 19,710.8 (138% Fibonacci). Stop Loss: 17,800. R/R: 1:2. Bearish Scenario: Entry: Breakout below 17,800 on volume. Target: 17,341.3 (138% Fibonacci). Stop Loss: 18,300. R/R: 1:1.5. Key Levels: Resistance: 19,710.8. Support: 17,341.3. Intermediate Zones: 18,500 (resistance) and 17,500 (support). Considerations: Monitor volume during the breakout to confirm the breakout. Review macroeconomic events (interest rates, inflation data) and tech company earnings, as the NASDAQ is sensitive to these factors. Technology market sentiment will be key in determining the direction. Warning: Trade at your own risk and ensure you have an appropriate risk management plan. Share your opinion in the comments!

To new ATHs?After a sharp drop, the price has been rejected at 16300. In my opinion, the fall has nothing to do with the presidency of the United State, rather a perfect opportunity for the investors to buy the dip. The last two HLs on monthly time frame were printed in March 2020 ( Worldwide Pandemic) and Oct 2022. Since then, Nasdaq has been going up steadily and making HHs and HLs on daily and weekly. Now, in April 2025 another HL has been printed on monthly and I think that market might be on it's way to make new ATHs in coming weeks and months and even years.

NASDAQ100Perfect — now we’re on the 4H timeframe, which is great for refining entries. Let’s break this down again with the three frameworks: ⸻ 1. Smart Money Concept (SMC) Key Elements: • CHoCH (Change of Character) — clearly marked after price broke above a short-term structure, shifting market sentiment bullish on 4H. • EQH (Equal Highs) — potential liquidity resting above; smart money may target these. • BOS (Break of Structure) — further confirms internal bullish structure. • Order Block (OB) or Demand Zone in the green box (~17,700–18,200)** — price respected this zone strongly after BOS, indicating smart money accumulation. SMC Bias (4H): • Currently bullish, moving from demand to premium pricing. • Price is forming higher highs and higher lows post-CHoCH. • Liquidity pool above EQH near 19,000 is likely next target. • Potential long re-entry if price returns to demand zone (18,000–18,200). ⸻ 2. Elliott Wave View (Micro Count on 4H) • If this is part of Wave 4 retracement on the Daily, this current 4H rally could be subwave A or B of the corrective structure (flat, zigzag, triangle). • Alt. view: This may be Wave 1 of a new impulsive move upward if macro bearish bias gets invalidated. • Current price action looks impulsive — strong vertical move (potential Wave 1 or 3). If impulsive structure: • Wave 1: 17,000 → 18,900 • Wave 2: pullback to ~18,100 (near OB) • Wave 3 underway — targetting >19,000 ⸻ 3. Dow Theory (on 4H) • Short-term trend is now up: Higher high confirmed post-BOS, and higher low formed. • To maintain bullish structure, price must not break below 17,900 (demand zone). • Confirmation of strength if we break above 19,000 — forming a higher high again. ⸻ Trade Idea (4H Setup) — Bullish SMC Entry Entry (Buy Limit): 18,150 (mid-demand zone) SL: 17,750 (below OB) TP1: 19,000 (liquidity above EQH) TP2: 19,800 – 20,200 (Daily supply zone) RR Ratio: ~1:3+ ⸻ Would you like a tighter setup on 1H for sniper entry, or are you trading swing/position from here

How I Traded A FULL Multi-Timeframe Wave - AND got PAIDThis week, I tracked NASDAQ from a technical + psychological level most traders avoided… but I saw the opportunity 🔎 While others sat on the sidelines calling it “too choppy,” I: ✅ Identified Wave 5 structure on the 4H + 1H timeframes ✅ Mapped out entries using price action + liquidity zones ✅ Held through 6+ rejections at resistance ✅ Executed with discipline, not emotion ✅ Took partial profits, protected capital ✅ Watched price explode — and I got my 💸 ✅ Then wrapped the week with a real withdrawal 📚 KEY LESSONS I’M DROPPING FOR YOU: 📊 Technical Analysis = The "What" → Chart patterns, structure, liquidity zones, entries/exits. 🌍 Fundamental Analysis = The "Why" → News, interest rates, sentiment. I stayed focused on the “what” — not the fear headlines. 💡 Liquidity Isn’t Noise. It’s a Signal. Every rejection I held through was just price loading up. I didn’t flinch. I let smart money do the work. 💥 Wave 5s test your strategy AND your patience. I saw smaller TF Wave 5 complete before 4H — so I waited. I didn’t FOMO back in — I planned for the pullback and possible short flip. 🧠 MINDSET WINS > CHART WINS 🧘🏽‍♀️ My biggest move this week? I walked away with clarity — not just profit. That’s trader growth. 💬 Final thoughts: You don’t need 100 trades. You need 1 well-managed setup and a calm mind. 📲 Follow me to keep learning how to trade structure, not stress.

Mastering Volatile Markets: Why Reducing Position Size is Key █ Mastering Volatile Markets Part 1: Why Reducing Position Size is Key Trading is always challenging, but how do you navigate today's markets? That's a whole different level. Today, we'll move away from the usual "Trump's tariffs are horrendous" discussions. We'll instead focus on how experienced traders profit in the current volatile market. Right now, we're seeing extreme volatility across many assets. It's not uncommon for markets to move 3% to 10% in a single day , and for indices like NAS100 (Nasdaq), intraday swings of 300 to 500 points can happen in just 5 to 30 minutes. This can seem like bad news, but as Warren Buffet said in 2008, "In short, bad news is an investor's best friend." Volatile markets can shake even experienced traders — but they don’t have to. With 16 years of trading experience , we’ll show you exactly how to approach conditions like these with confidence and clarity. █ Reducing position size is the key to surviving volatility: The most critical adjustment in a volatile market is reducing position size. Why? Because when the market moves faster and with bigger swings, your potential risk per trade automatically increases. The key is to keep your d ollar risk the same — even when volatility is exploding. ⚪ Let's take a look at how position size changes when markets change: 2 Weeks Ago — Stable Market: NAS100 average move per trade = 50 to 100 points Risk per trade = 100 points = $500 risk (for example) Position Size = 5 contracts Today — Volatile Market: NAS100 average move per trade = 300 to 500 points To maintain the same $500 risk per trade → Position Size = 1 contract ⚪ The Benefit: With a smaller position, you can still earn the same profit because the price is moving much more. At the same time, your risk stays controlled , even in these wild markets. This is exactly how professional traders survive and thrive in volatile conditions — by adjusting to what the market is giving them. ⚪ What Happens If You Don't Reduce Size? Let's say you keep the same position size as in stable markets, but now the market moves 300-500 points against you instead of 50-100. Here's how it plays out (example): In Stable Markets (NAS100 average move: 50-100 points): Position Size: 5 contracts Risk per contract: $10 per point Risk per trade: 100 points x $10 x 5 contracts = $5,000 risk per trade In Volatile Markets (NAS100 average move: 300-500 points): Position Size: 5 contracts (unchanged) Risk per contract: $10 per point Risk per trade: 500 points x $10 x 5 contracts = $25,000 risk per trade Without reducing position size, your risk increases dramatically as the market moves wildly. As a result, your losses will skyrocket when the market moves against you. █ Summary: Huge volatility = Smaller position size Same risk = Same profit potential Trade smarter, not bigger This is rule number one when navigating wild markets like the ones we have today. █ What's Coming Next in the Series: Part 2: Liquidity Is the Silent Killer Part 3: Patience Over FOMO Part 4: Trend Is Your Best Friend Stay tuned for the next part — and remember, adapting to volatility isn't just about managing risk, it's about mastering the market! ----------------- Disclaimer The content provided in my scripts, indicators, ideas, algorithms, and systems is for educational and informational purposes only.
