It is not easy to explain everything with just chart analysis.
Therefore, it is true that interpretation of various issues is necessary.
However, I am only explaining the chart.
The reason is that interpretation of various issues other than the chart is not easy for individual investors.
-
(NAS100USD 1W chart)
In order to continue the uptrend, the price must be maintained above the M-Signal indicator of the 1M chart.
If not, there is a high possibility of continuing the downtrend.
Therefore, if the price is maintained above 18693.7, I think it is highly likely that the uptrend will continue.
However, this is a medium- to long-term perspective.
-
(1D chart)
In the short term, the price should be maintained above the M-Signal indicator on the 1D chart.
In that sense, we can see that the current price position is an important section.
However, in order to continue the short-term upward trend, it should rise above the M-Signal indicator on the 1W chart.
In that sense, the support around 19848.3 is an important key point.
-
Currently, the StochRSI indicator has entered the overbought section.
Therefore, even if it continues to rise further, it is expected to show a downward trend in the end.
Therefore, if it is not supported near 19848.3, I think you should prepare for a decline.
At this time, you should check whether it can be supported near 18428.8 and rise.
The reason is that the HA-Low indicator of the 1D chart is formed.
-
The HA-Low and HA-High indicators are indicators created for trading on the Heikin Ashi chart.
The fact that the HA-Low indicator was created means that it rose from the low point section.
Therefore, if it is supported near the HA-Low indicator, then that is the time to buy.
If it falls without being supported by the HA-Low indicator, there is a possibility of a stepwise decline, so you should think about a countermeasure for this.
However, there is a difference between a downward trend following the HA-Low indicator and a simple downward trend.
A stepwise decline following the HA-Low indicator is likely to eventually form a bottom section.
The next volatility period is expected to be around April 29th.
-
Thank you for reading to the end.
I hope you have a successful trading.

NASDAQ Long Wave 5 Targeting Supply Zone, Then Looking to ShortI’m currently holding long positions from the end of Wave 2 (entry around 16,849). I took partial profits after Wave 3 (around 19,000–19,200) and now waiting for 4H TF Wave 4 to pull back and give a re-entry.
Once Wave 4H TF Wave 4 completes, I plan to scale back in and target the 19,500–19,900 zone.
If price reaches that zone and shows rejection, I’ll look to switch bias and short as I believe that will begin a daily Wave 2 correction to the downside.
Key levels I’m watching:
• Wave 2 support: 16,849
• Wave 3 resistance zone / TP1: 19,000 area
• Wave 5 supply zone / Final TP: 19,500–19,900
• Sell zone if confirmed reversal: 19,500–20,000
• Next short target (after confirmation): TBD once Wave 5 completes
Will update this idea as Wave 4 forms and price action confirms the next leg.
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.
NASDAQ: Cyclical correction most likely completed. ATH by June?Nasdaq remains oversold both on its 1D (RSI = 25.630) and 1W (RSI = 28.851, MACD = -442.980, ADX = 36.399) technical outlook as yesterday's rally is being corrected today on strong technical selling. Long term it looks like this was a cyclical correction, reached -25%, hit the 3W MA50/1W MA200 zone (which has been the best buy entry in the past 10 years) that has most likely been completed. In addition, the 1W RSI is on the same oversold levels as May 16th 2022, the lowest it has been since 2008. According to the Fibonacci Channel Up, the market can hit 22,300 as early as June.

NAS100 Playbook For The Week Friday closed around 18,783, likely in the midst of wrapping up Wave 5 on the 1H timeframe ⚠️
However, the daily Wave 5 still looks incomplete — my upside target remains around 19,732.
Notably, price hasn’t tapped the Wave 3 daily high at 19,258, so there’s still room for one more push 📈
What I’m Watching:
🔻 Short-term pullback likely.
Here are the zones I’m eyeing for potential shorts:
🔹 1H Wave 2 FVG zone → 18,098
🔹 Daily FVG / Wave 2 bottom → 17,573
I’ll be looking to short into one of those levels IF structure confirms, then potentially flip long once we see a solid move on the daily 💥

monday long opportunity for nasdaq1. From the daily chart perspective, I believe a short-term bottom has already formed, but the stop-loss level is too far for a long position, so it’s better to seek a low-entry buy. Last Friday, it reached a support level, but I wasn’t firm enough so i didn't enter. BUtT, we can PATIENTLY wait for a lower point to buy here.
monday plan:
On the 1-hour timeframe, resistance is at 19100-19300 (which is also the 4-hour resistance), and support is at 18200-17800.
Look for buying opportunities on Monday, with real-time updates afterward, stop-loss at 17600.
TARGET IS 19100-19300.
If price goes up directly, i will wait 19100-19300 for a short opportunity instead.
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.
92% Win Rate Strategy Using Gann’s Planetary LongitudeHave you ever wondered how some traders seem to anticipate market reversals with uncanny precision, almost as if they can see into the future?
Well, what if I told you that the secret doesn’t lie in guesswork or traditional retail indicators, but in the heavens themselves?
Let me walk you through one of the most powerful forecasting tools in Gann's arsenal—the Planetary Longitude Method and how I used it to identify the exact price level from which the market reversed.
The Power of Planetary Time Cycles in Trading
This technique isn’t based on patterns, trendlines, or lagging indicators. It’s rooted in precise planetary time cycles, the same natural laws that govern the movement of celestial bodies.
Gann believed the markets were not chaotic but deeply connected to universal rhythm and planetary motion. According to his planetary longitude method, each planet holds a specific degree of longitude at any given time. These degrees can be directly mapped onto price charts, turning astronomical data into actionable trade setups.
When price meets planetary longitude, something extraordinary happens. These degrees act as invisible support and resistance levels—ones that retail traders never see. They are silent yet powerful markers of change, and because they are rooted in cosmic cycles, they give you a strategic edge in timing your trades.
Why These Degrees Matter
As a trader, what you’re truly looking for is reaction zones, areas where price is likely to pause, reverse, or accelerate. When planetary time and market price converge at a particular degree, it creates what Gann called a "vibrational point", a moment of energetic alignment. These are high-probability zones where you can anticipate market turning points with accuracy.
By tracking the longitudes of key planets, such as the Sun, Moon, Mars, Jupiter, or Saturn—you can identify these critical junctures. Each planet brings its own cycle, its own tempo. For deeper, longer-term reversals, I often rely on the slower-moving planets like Pluto, while for short-term setups, I look at the faster ones like the Moon or Mars.
How I Forecasted the US100 Reversal from 19,384.6
Now, let’s get practical.
In this recent example, I was closely watching the US100 index, where I anticipated a potential reversal around the level of 19,384.6. Was this just another support/resistance zone? Absolutely not.
Here’s how I arrived at this precise level using Gann’s Planetary Longitude Technique:
First, I took the price level of 19,384.6 and converted it into degrees. To do this, I simply subtracted 360 repeatedly from the price until I arrived at a number less than 360. This process is based on the 360° circle of the zodiac—once the price cycles through the full circle multiple times, what's left is the vibrational degree associated with that price. In this case, the price level of 19,384.6 converted to approximately 304.6°.
Then, I checked the planetary position of Pluto which was 303.55° in longitude.
This created a near-perfect alignment between Pluto’s time cycle and the vibrational price degree. When planetary time meets price, it forms a cosmic convergence zone—a point of natural balance where the market is highly likely to react. So, I wasn’t just guessing—I was waiting for that moment of planetary resonance.
And as the chart clearly shows, the market reacted sharply the moment it touched 19,384.6, confirming the sensitivity of this degree. It wasn’t random. It was a harmonic response, echoing the laws of cosmic vibration that Gann so strongly emphasized.
This is a real-time example of how combining planetary time with price geometry can give you a decisive trading edge, especially in forecasting major turning points.
Why This Method Works
The market respects these planetary degrees not because of mysticism, but because it moves in cycles—natural cycles that repeat. The alignment of price with planetary longitude often marks pivot points in the market.
And this method doesn’t just help with identifying reversals. It also enhances your entry and exit timing, allowing you to trade with confidence, knowing you're aligned with the larger cosmic structure that influences all things—including financial markets.
Final Thoughts
This is just one example of how planetary geometry, when applied correctly, can lead to powerful trade setups. While Pluto offers long-term signals, don’t underestimate the value of the Moon, Mars, or Jupiter for shorter timeframes. The market dances to their rhythm too.
And once you learn to listen to that rhythm, you'll never look at price the same way again.
Nasdaq what to expect next?The Nasdaq has declined approximately 23% from its all-time high, positioning us near a notable discount on a global timeframe. In my professional assessment, this presents a compelling opportunity to begin constructing a diversified portfolio. However, I anticipate further downward movement in the near term, so I recommend a measured approach—allocate capital gradually rather than deploying all available cash at once. Consider initiating positions through Contracts for Difference (CFDs) or Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs), focusing on high-quality, blue-chip equities such as Microsoft (MSFT), Apple (AAPL), NVIDIA (NVDA), Nike (NIKE), and Walmart (WMT), among others.
That said, I advise against overcommitting capital at this juncture. The potential for an economic recession remains, and the market could trade sideways for an extended period—potentially one to two years. Prudence is warranted.
Additionally, the Fear and Greed Index for U.S. stocks currently stands at 6, a level strikingly close to the 5 recorded during the COVID-19 market crash. Those familiar with market history will recall the significant rebound that followed. This historical parallel suggests a potential inflection point.
Personally, I am actively participating in this market, incrementally rebuilding long-term positions within my investment account. Opportunities of this magnitude are infrequent, occurring perhaps once every few years. However, this does not preclude further declines—markets can always test lower levels. From a statistical perspective, though, the current environment supports initiating long-term investment positions with a disciplined strategy.
Let me know if you’d like a deeper analysis of specific assets or portfolio allocation tactics!
