Dow Jones 32% Correction Bearish Bias UpdatedI have been proved wrong about being bullish lately. I took a couple L's and had to step back. Using the monthly chart, I have marked in blue lines every year's open. I can see a clear support area at the 2020 yearly open. This will take out the lows of both 2022 and 2023 low.
I will be ignoring any bullish bars in anticipation of them getting eliminated.
Yes, the long-term trend is indeed bullish, and this 32% correction will be a counter trend to the current bull trend.
The 2020 open is EXACTLY 50% of the high/low
Market declines in %:
Bearish Setups to employ:
Moral of the story? Don't pay attention to bullish bars as they will soon be wiped away.

Dow has a support around 40,800 but overall bearish sentimentBased on the chart, there is support at 40,800 on weekly chart. I think this might push the market up a little bit for the next couple weeks but I predict it will go down to test the yellow line which has a support only both weekly and monthly charts.
Flow State StrategyPrice behaves like a single organism that moves in cyclical, parabolic patterns: from Higher Highs (HH) to Higher Lows (HL) to Higher Highs again, and from Lower Highs (LH) to Lower Lows (LL) to Lower Highs. Each Higher Low creates new buy orders that are fulfilled, leading to the formation of a new High. Likewise, each Lower High creates resting sell orders that are executed, resulting in a new Low. Once you understand, monitor, and act upon this principle, along with your chosen strategy, you can truly flow with the market's movements rather than against them.
Dow Jones Limit Buy Entry Trigger 42,027I am placing a limit order for a long position at 42,027 in the anticipation of a pullback to support. My stop is 150 ticks ( based on the 115 tick ATR ) and my target is 2.5 risk to reward or 375 ticks. Will I know if this support level will hold? No, and I don't need to. To me, this is a great location, and I am willing to put risk on to find out.
I am bullish the next three months and so, will mainly look for buy setups when they present. This trade, I am buying the level and not waiting for confirmation.
If you take the same trade, manage your risk as any trade can fail.
Bearish Outlook on Dow Jones Amid Corrective Phase- Key Insights: The Dow Jones is currently under bearish pressure with
institutional selling prevalent across major indices. The corrective phase
is expected to continue, potentially pushing the Dow towards support levels
between 39,800 and 39,700. Investors should prepare for market volatility
fueled by economic factors like upcoming tariffs, which may slow down
potential recovery actions.
- Price Targets: Short position advised next week.
- Targets: T1 = 39,700, T2 = 39,500
- Stops: S1 = 40,500, S2 = 41,000
- Recent Performance: The Dow Jones recently exhibited a downward trend, filling
a gap before moving further downwards similar to NASDAQ and S&P 500. This
decline suggests a consistent bearish sentiment is affecting the markets.
- Expert Analysis: Experts believe the Dow is in a corrective phase with an
eventual rally towards new highs expected post-correction. Current sentiment
remains bearish due to worries about tariffs and broader economic
challenges, but optimism exists for future recovery to levels above 47,000,
hitting as high as 51,000 in bull scenarios.
- News Impact: Market sentiments are marred by the anticipation of new tariffs
set to unveil on April 2nd. These tariffs could introduce significant
volatility impacting both equity and cryptocurrency markets, which will be
crucial for investors to closely monitor due to potential negative
influences on the Dow Jones trajectory in the near term.
Dow Jones April Bullish Gameplan I am going into April Bullish. I believe this two-legged pullback is over on the Daily.
The ATR on the Daily has been a valuable tool to pick the lows. Every time ATR spikes and falls, that is the low.
I will be looking for price to slow down and layer into 41,580, form a higher low and start the bullish march back up.
The Monthly Chart
The Weekly Chart
Dow Jones Futures Potential Short OpportunitiesDow futures reflect weak momentum, retreating after a 50% retracement of the prior 9% decline from 45075 to 40707, facing rejection at 43083.
Critical Supports: The immediate focus lies on 42416; failing this Support will accelerate losses to subsequent supports at 42214 and the critical 41882 level.
Resistance Levels: Strong overhead resistance at 42546, 42750, and notably at 42878.
Elliott Wave: Dow Futures (YM) Poised to Continue Its RallyThe short-term Elliott Wave perspective for Dow Futures (YM) indicates that the wave IV pullback concluded at 40725, as illustrated in the 1-hour chart below. The Index has begun to climb in wave V. However, it must still surpass the prior peak of 45227, set on January 31, 2025, to eliminate the possibility of a double correction downward. The rally from the wave IV low has so far unfolded in three swings. For greater confidence in continued upward momentum, it’s advisable to wait until a five-swing pattern emerges.
The rally from wave IV is expected to develop as a five-swing diagonal Elliott Wave structure. From the wave IV low, wave ((i)) peaked at 41905, followed by a wave ((ii)) pullback that bottomed at 41587. Wave ((iii)) then advanced to 42388, with the subsequent wave ((iv)) pullback concluding at 41769. The final leg, wave ((v)), reached 42544, marking the completion of wave 1 on a larger degree. The ensuing wave 2 correction then found its low at 41751. From that point, the wave 3 rally reached its peak at 43148, followed by a wave 4 pullback that bottomed at 42459. In the near term, as long as the pivotal low at 40725 holds, anticipate that any pullback will attract buyers within a 3, 7, or 11-swing pattern, paving the way for further upside.
DOW Shorts: Better RRWhile NQ and ES was trending lower DOW was going higher. This was to take out stops, pair smart money orders and start the sell program. I waited for multiple confirmations before entering the trade. Buystops, rejection, CISD and IFVG. I could've entered earlier targeting even higher rr but the more confirmations there are showing bearishness, the higher the probability. This trade is risk free and partials have been taken. The stops will be adjusted accordingly and managed while letting the runner target the PDL. Let's see.
Dow Jones - Frontrunning Nasdaq & S&P 500When comparing Dow Jones to Nasdaq and S&P500, you will notice that this weeks price range is larger than the others, indicating that Dow Jones is the front running market.
Dow is the leading stock index pair to study. If I am expecting to see appreciation in NQ, ES, I want to see YM move first.
Last Week of March Possible Trending Cycle BearishThe last week of March is shaping up to be a bearish trending weekly cycle. I am looking for peak formation highs to be put in place and a bearish week to follow.
A sort of guide I am using is October 12th 2023
March 2025
The weekly chart shows a weak bullish resting bar that I believe will get erased.
My bias is still bearish for the remainder of the month

US30 Bullish BiasFundamentals:
Valuation:
Undervalued on the 30d - 13d
Between the mean/Undervalued on 10d (projecting one more drop to undervalued on the 10 days)
Seasonality:
Following the price well. But I've explained that the price of Dow Jones reached a High 2-3 weeks before seasonality Tool predicted.
As per 5y 10y 15y seasonality, the bottom of US30 could be this week, or early next week. Whether we see another drop is something we can't tell. But Seasonality tool was late as per the example I've showed you on Trade Station, could be late this time around, and we could find a bottom within the next 5-6 trading days!
Technically: I've explained why I prefer the lower Daily Demand Zone.
The Demand Zone we are currently at - is where the Equilibrium lies as per Fib Tool - therefore not a good buy level!
Lastly, can we see one more heavy move down with A -3.5% on FOMC this Wednesday? We don't know, but it happened in December and it could happen this week!
Dow Jones - Tariff's Causing HUGE Disruption!Stocks rallied Friday, clawing back some of the steep losses seen over the week, as investors got a reprieve from tariff-related headlines.
But it does not mean that the bearish onslaught has ended. 41,790 - 40,347, 3-month fair value gap is still in play and although I am going into next week neutral, I would like to see a bullish draw up to 41790.
March FOMC Bullish Pullback Into Correction
Next week I am going in cautious because it will likely be a bullish counter trend week to pullback into the overall, bearish correction. Wednesday is FOMC.
We can also have another week down.
Ultimately, this is what I am looking for over the next couple of years.
YM (March 2025) - Pay Close Attention To Dow JonesWhen comparing the three pairs; YM, NQ and ES, it is evident that the weekly lows has still not been made, indicating the weakness bears have to push price lower.
The mean threshold of the 6th Jan 2025 has been respected, indicating the potential for a short term retracement on the lower time frames back up into 43409 - 43024 weekly previous bullish order block.
The most important days to study is Sunday to Wednesday.
US30 FUTURES SELL SETUPI have a Monthly overall uptrend with a Weekly leg making a new higher high. However, at the top of that new higher high, The Daily TF failed to make a new higher high which may cause the start of the Weekly retest. So for now I have a Daily downtrend with a 15min retest to continue down towards $40,000. If I'm wrong, price will break and close above $42,946 and continue upwards towards the last high which is $44,000.
