QQQ - Correction Underway After Recent HighsThe QQQ is currently undergoing a corrective move after reaching a recent high of around 540 USD. The price has retraced sharply from this level, indicating a potential shift in market sentiment as sellers begin to dominate. Key Levels Support Zones: Immediate support can be seen around 519 USD, with more significant zones near 500 and 480 USD, which aligns with previous price consolidation. Market Structure After a strong upward move, the price has entered a consolidation phase, with lower highs indicating the start of a pullback. Sellers have gained control, as evidenced by the recent price action. Volume The CVD is deeply negative, highlighting strong selling pressure in the current market phase. This suggests that while price holds near key support, bearish momentum remains high, and we may see further downside if these levels don't hold. Outlook Watch for price action around the current support. If this level breaks convincingly (what has to be expected, regarding the highly negative momentum), we could see a deeper retracement toward 500 USD. On the other hand, a strong bounce from current levels, might signal a resumption of the bullish trend. The two different pathways show the most likely outlooks: The green path shows the best bullish case, while the blue path seems to have a higher likelihood, but therefore offers a better RRR for future long positions.

Market Structure Analysis * Daily Chart: QQQ broke below its recent upward channel support at $525, with today's close significantly below the 9-EMA and 21-EMA, signaling bearish momentum. * Hourly Chart: A sharp sell-off occurred during today's session, with a brief recovery toward $517. However, the current volume profile indicates strong selling pressure near the $525 resistance. Supply and Demand Zones * Immediate Resistance Zones: * $525.60: Prior support turned resistance, aligning with the gamma exposure wall and heavy put wall. * $533.14: Additional resistance, coinciding with the upper range of today’s intraday high. * Support Zones: * $515: Intraday low support aligning with the highest negative gamma exposure (NETGEX) level. * $507 and $505: Key demand zones visible from previous consolidations and gamma support. Order Blocks and Key Levels * Bearish Order Block: $525 to $533 range has seen consistent selling pressure, forming a robust resistance. * Bullish Rejection Level: $512-$515 acts as a psychological support zone. Key Indicators * MACD: The MACD on both daily and hourly charts has crossed bearishly, with increasing momentum to the downside. * RSI: Hourly RSI has entered oversold territory (~30), indicating a possible short-term bounce. * EMAs (9 & 21): The price remains significantly below both EMAs on all timeframes, confirming the bearish bias. Gamma Exposure (GEX) and Options Activity * Put Wall: The $519 level represents the highest concentration of puts, acting as immediate resistance. * Gamma Exposure (GEX): * Negative GEX levels between $515 and $520 amplify downward pressure. * Above $525, calls dominate, potentially limiting further upside. Scalping vs. Swing Outlook * Scalping Strategy: * Look for short entries near $525 with tight stop losses above $526. * Potential target zones: $517, $515, and $512. * Swing Strategy: * Wait for confirmation of a close above $525 to consider bullish recovery. * Downside swing target: $505 if $512 support breaks. Actionable Suggestions 1. Short Setup: * Entry: Near $525. * Stop-Loss: Above $526. * Target: $515, $507. 2. Bullish Setup: * Entry: On confirmation above $525. * Stop-Loss: Below $520. * Target: $533. Conclusion QQQ is in a precarious technical position, reflecting broader market weakness. A further break below $512 could accelerate the downtrend, while a reclaim of $525 could initiate a short-term recovery.

12/3/24 - $qqq - quick comment on "risk"- by now it should be obvious that this isn't "normal" (hasn't been for over a decade, but esp in the last year). M2 turned positive and risk assets followed especially as labor mkt data started "allowing" fed to cut - but remember, inflation gauges are heading higher. oil probably only has one direction (energy is a big driver) and consumers are ape'ing on basically everything w/ credit card debt exploding higher. amazing! - what concerns me, though is this next fed mtg... 1/ any "cuts" won't really move the needle in terms of truly looser monetary policy 2/ mkts are already at nosebleed highs (let's just use PE e.g. 2-3% vs. 10Y rates) 3/ any indication that the fed is going to not keep with the current programming (b/c let's face it - they're certainly - well who really knows but the dark forces from h3ll - going to accelerate the print bc it's not necessary, look at the mkts!)... which means the only possible direction is possibly more restrictive 4/ now we ARE in year end. there are technically no -ve catalysts on the horizon so to speak, and the mkts need a reason to go down, not up. so the direction holds. i'm happy holding a big allo of BTC, NXT, TSM, META and NVDA and some select other stuff in that order. it's working well and i genuinely think the valuations for these are (ironically) decent 5/ but beware. that if the mkt starts to get the picture of what i'm spelling out above... it won't be next week where you get a pullback (i'm not calling for something extreme, but 5-10% will cause tears for a lot of leveraged low IQ types and zero them quickly)... but i'm prepared with a healthy cash balance, a bunch of shorts (today it's PLTR in size, SG which i've been monetizing a bit, NN, SMR also monetizing a bit and some B2B stuff that just got too expensive like TEAM which i actually like but i digress). just good to be aware of where we're at. try typing in "QQQ/M2" into trading view and look at monthly or 3M candles. note anything interesting? it's best to normalize by money supply one way or another. when and where did we last reach these levels ;) stay vigilant and don't drink too much. the party continues but it's good to remember the exit than be woken up with some unfortunate pictures of your PnL. could have, should have.

[GEX] levels for QQQFirst, let’s examine what we see on our chart using options indicators: Summarizing the GEX levels through December 26, we have a strong call wall at around 540. If price can break above and hold that level, it could easily pave the way toward 550. However, if we’re expecting a Christmas selloff after Friday’s close, this bearish assumption might prove worthwhile. This brings up a point that often comes up: “How do I interpret whether the optoins indicator is bullish or bearish?” There’s no such definitive signal! The levels and options metrics show certain conditions, but no one can tell you exactly what will happen next. This is where you need to have a directional hypothesis. Once you have it, the indicators can help you fine-tune your positioning, identify realistic targets, and select viable legs—but they won’t decide your directional stance for you. For example, while everything may look bullish, let’s say you have a contrarian bearish view. Then you can see where it makes sense to position yourself. Test Case Chosen: 8x QQQ Dec 24th – Dec 26th 525 Calendar Put Spread Max Loss: $216 Max Profit: $1,685 PoP: 45% Why not?

(GET READY) QQQ's Expected move for FOMCAll right so we are right at the 35 EMA you could see that we’ve had a pretty strong rally along that level since the beginning of December we did drop underneath that for two trading days but then we got back above it with CPI and continue to rally so 35 EMA huge level right in the middle of our trading range. The implied move for today is between 530 and 542 for tomorrow. It’s 528 to 543 and four the 30 day average 527 to 545 and that 35 EMA is the big level in our trading range underneath that we do have that up gap from Monday up and then consolidated back to the 35 EMA for FOMC. Five 3915 is where we have previous all-time highs. That is a little more than halfway up our implied move then 542 is the top of the implied move today 543 tomorrow underneath us that gap the bottom of that gap is 530. That is also the bottom of our implied move 528 is the bottom of the implied move tomorrow on Thursday and we have that 30 minute underneath all of that and we also do have that gap from last Friday that is sitting right on top of that 30 minute 200 moving average as well Sorry that this is just one lot run-on sentence today. I’m used to making the videos and just speaking it out and this is speech to text. Hope y’all can make out what I’m saying. Lol

The chart reflects bullish price action supported by key elementDetailed Analysis of the Chart: Yellow Trend Line (Bullish Bias): Price remains in a clear uptrend (yellow lines), moving consistently higher while respecting the ascending support trend line. This bullish trend is reinforced by multiple Bullish Fair Value Gaps (FVG) that acted as strong support zones for upward momentum. Volume Observations: Volume increases during significant upward movements (e.g., 3.47M, 3.755M), indicating institutional support for price at these levels. However, volume slightly declines near the hammer candle at a recent high, signaling potential exhaustion. Key Levels: . 50 Fibonacci Extension: Price is approaching this level, which may act as a short-term resistance. If price fails to break above this extension, a pullback to test previous Bullish FVG zones is likely. Red Trend Line (Bearish Scenario): If price breaks below the yellow uptrend and Monday’s open confirms bearish momentum, the red trend line highlights a potential reversal setup. A Bearish FVG forming after this breakdown would provide confluence for short entries upon a retest of the red FVG. Hammer Candle: The recent hammer at a high could signify a potential reversal signal. This often occurs when buyers fail to push prices higher, allowing sellers to gain control. Bias Sentiment for Monday’s Open Scenario 1: Bullish Continuation (Primary Bias) If price respects the yellow trend line and maintains its bullish structure, expect a continuation upward. A break above the .50 Fibonacci Extension would confirm this sentiment. Entry Idea: Look for long positions near the bullish FVG zones or upon a clean break of recent highs. Scenario 2: Bearish Reversal (Secondary Bias) If price opens bearish and breaks below the yellow uptrend, the focus shifts to the red trend line and the Bearish FVG retest. Entry Idea: Wait for a Bearish FVG to form on a pullback and consider short positions on a confirmed retest for lower liquidity zones. Summary Primary Bias: Bullish continuation with price maintaining the yellow uptrend. Secondary Bias: A break of the yellow trend line signals bearish momentum, with the red trend line and Bearish FVG retest as confluence for short positions. Key Focus: Monitor price action near the yellow trend line support, .50 Fibonacci Extension, and any bearish signals (FVG) if Monday opens weak. Come back Monday at 9am for a market and chart update.

Trading Timeframes: Measured Moves and ContextIn the previous post, we introduced the concept of measured moves, a structured framework for estimating future price behavior. This method is based on the observation that each swing move tends to be similar in size to the previous one, assuming average price volatility remains consistent. While not exact, this approach offers a practical way to approximate the potential extension of a swing move. A common question that arises is: which timeframe should you use for measured moves, and how do you choose the correct swing move? These questions open up a completely different and important topic. Imagine analyzing a chart across three timeframes: daily, weekly, and monthly. You’ve projected a viable measured move on each chart. Now, ask yourself: which projection is the correct one? Where is the move most likely to play out? Daily Weekly Monthly The reality is that there is no singular “correct” answer. The appropriate measurement depends entirely on your purpose as a trader, the timeframe you operate in, and trading style. The Fractal Nature of Price Action Price action is fractal by nature. Regardless of whether you’re observing a 30-minute chart, a daily chart, or a weekly chart, the price displayed is the same in real time. However, the purpose of charts is to provide context. Each timeframe offers a unique perspective on how price has developed. For example, a 5-minute chart may reveal details about intraday movements while a daily chart condenses those details into broader a broader structure and context. These perspectives may align or contradict one another, they can confirm or challenge your biases. The key takeaway is that charts and timeframes are tools to contextualize price, not definitive answers. Defining Your Trading Timeframe To navigate the apparent contradictions between timeframes, start by defining your trading timeframe. This is where you analyze price structure, execute trades and define holding periods. This will answer the opening question: measured moves and other tools should in preference align with your trading timeframe. In case one wants to consider context, for various reasons, then multiple timeframes can be utilized. These act as a complement, not replacement. Here’s how different timeframes can be used for context. Higher timeframe: Moving one timeframe up will compress the price data, providing a broader context, but at the expense of detail. Lower Timeframe: Moving one timeframe down will reveal intricate details, but can introduce excessive noise. The balance between these components should match your trading style. Without a clear and defined approach, there is a risk of confusion and contradictory biases. The Concept of "Moving in Twos" Another, more anecdotal observation in price movement is the idea of “moving in twos.” This concept suggests that price often moves in sequences of two swings: an impulse move, followed with a pullback, which then repeats. There tends to be some price disruption after this has played out, but does not always imply that trend movement must stop after two moves. However, measured moves tend to align more reliably with these sequences. While not a scientifically validated principle, this concept has been discussed by traders such as Al Brooks, Mack and more. It provides a practical heuristic for applying measured moves more consistently. Practical Application To apply these ideas, consider the following: Define your trading timeframe. Use it as the primary basis for your measured move projections. If needed, incorporate one higher or lower timeframe to balance context and detail. However, these additional perspectives should not overrule your primary focus. Think in terms of “moving in twos.” Use this concept to locate sequences. This post was about the relationship between timeframes and the fractal nature of price action. The focus is on our role as traders and how we decide to operate, rather than absolute answers. This might be clear to most, but if not, take some time to think about and define your trading style.

QqqSo there is 4 major sectors that Drive the QQQ and tech overall.. I like to know what the sectors are doing/showing to get an edge on where QQQ is headed. Imagine QQQ being a car, and each sector is important part to that car (Transmission, Engine) Here are the 4 sectors and 2 of the biggest names in each sector XLK -Msft , Aapl XLC - Meta, Googl, Nflx SMH - NVDA , TSM XLY - AMZN, TSLA Qqq weekly chart (Log scale) Price is at the top of a 16yr channel. We tagged the top back in July high and most recently right after trump election rally; both time price got smacked down. The only time price has broke. Out of this channel was with the stimulus liquidity back in 2021. Daily chart shows a rising wedge at the top of the weekly channel If we were to trade inside this wedge then then the top is a around 512. Lets say we we broke out of the rising wedge and pushed back up to the weekly channel, that move would take us to a new high of 520 where we would then sell again. Now let's say we break to the downside of this wedge , that correction would be 10% and would pullback to 460 price action minimum. Maximum we target weekly channel bottom around 390- 400. Lets start with XLK, this chart mirrors QQQ the most Daily chart similar rising wedge pattern here Bearish below 228. Below 228 and the corr3ction has started. NASDAQ:AAPL has been keeping this propped up nicely but now aapl is at a brick wall IMO Here's aapl chart weekly Top of trendline and resistance at 237. More importantly is aapl 4 hour money flow just went off.. The thing about indicators is you have to know which ones work well with which stocks and time frame and aapl 4hour Mfi is about 80% reliable and this one is telling me SELL. So back to XLK 2hour chart and you can see that this week we will either have a double top below 228 or a pennant.. I'm thinking sell early since aapl is at resistance then let job's decide later .. if they do prop it will be more from msft than aapl. XLC Daily chart that shows rally from 2022 lows. Price has stayed contained inside channel up until Nflx rally + Trump election.. Now we are outside channel but trading inside a baby wedge. I think for the month of December this sector will double to 88-91 price action.. Daily MFI just lit up and weekly candle outside Bband XLY Weekly chart (Log scale) Riding the top of its Bbands near channel but price has room for 230 if it wants. Weekly candle is now 14% extended from its 20sma; when this happens usually within the course of the next 4-6weeks price pulls back to test the weekly 20sma. Daily chart If price breaks back below 220 then we began a pullback to 212 or previous ATH from 2021. Below 212 and it's a double to back to 205 Lastly is Chip sector NASDAQ:SMH Weekly chart (Log scale) Price went parabolic back in 2020 from the supply chain issues and broke above 10yr resistance before correcting back inside. Fast forward and it looks like deja vu all over again. Price is hovering right at trendline and if we fall back inside that would mean a nasty year/years ahead for chips Close up of the weekly, more immediately looks like price is headed back to its 2 year trendline support around 220 Daily chart.. pretty simple here. Descending triangle that will flush below 237 but could turn into a double bottom over 248 Over 248 (50sma) and we close gap at 260 and retest rising wedge The crash scenario for chips is if SMH loses 200.00 price. But I think It's a when not if. In the mean time look for the pullback to 215-220 even if we bounce to 260 . So to sum it up For tech we are either Extended at a brick wall or outright bearish.. Nothing looks like a buy and swing to me.. you may see fawkery until they decide to break the wedge on Qqq.. what do I mean by Fawkery? Well since aapl is at resistance and let's say they don't want a full sell on XLK yet, they may prop up Msft with some fake news/Upgrade and this keeps XLK above its 20sma. I'm looking for a sell on Qqq this week and for the wedge to be broken to the down side. My immediate target first 2 weeks of Dec is 484
