NAS100 - Stock market awaits inflation!The index is located between EMA200 and EMA50 on the one-hour timeframe and is trading in its ascending channel. Maintaining the ascending channel and confirming it after breaking the downtrend line will lead to the continuation of the Nasdaq's upward path to higher targets (23000), but in case of no increase and channel failure, one can look for selling positions up to the target of 22500.
Last week, the U.S.dollar demonstrated strong performance against major global currencies, despite having experienced some weakness since April 2, when President Donald Trump announced retaliatory tariffs against key U.S. trading partners. However, these tariffs were ultimately postponed, and only a baseline 10% tariff was maintained.
The 90-day deadline for implementing these tariffs, originally set to expire on Wednesday, has now been extended to August 1. Nevertheless, Trump surprised the markets this week by announcing a 25% tariff on imports from Japan and South Korea, threatening a 50% tariff on Brazilian goods, and implementing lower tariffs for other partners. These developments triggered a shift of capital toward the U.S. dollar as a safe-haven asset, boosting its strength.
This marks a notable shift in how the dollar is reacting to tariff tensions. In April, fears of an economic slowdown weighed on the greenback, but now it is gaining traction as a refuge in times of uncertainty, particularly as inflation risks mount—contributing to choppy moves in U.S. equity markets.
As is customary, the earnings season will kick off with reports from major banks and financial institutions. On Tuesday, JPMorgan is set to release its financial results, opening the floodgates for a wave of earnings reports. The image referenced lists several other companies, many of which are market heavyweights.
Following a relatively quiet week due to Independence Day holidays and a lack of major economic data, markets are now gearing up for a steady stream of reports in the coming days. Tuesday will bring the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for June along with the Empire State manufacturing survey. On Wednesday, the spotlight will shift to the Producer Price Index (PPI) for the same month. Then, on Thursday, traders will focus on June’s retail sales report, the Philadelphia Fed’s manufacturing survey, and the weekly jobless claims figures.
The week will conclude with two additional reports on Friday: the June housing starts data and the preliminary reading of the University of Michigan’s Consumer Sentiment Index.
June’s CPI report is expected to reflect an uptick in inflation, potentially driven by Trump’s tariff policies. Some analysts believe the tariffs will have an “undeniable” impact on prices, though others remain uncertain.
Despite concerns from both experts and consumers that businesses might pass tariff costs on to buyers, inflation has so far remained relatively moderate this year. The effects of Trump’s aggressive tariff campaign on hard economic data have not yet been clearly reflected—but that may be about to change.
According to Bloomberg’s consensus forecasts, as cited by Wells Fargo Securities, the CPI is expected to show a 2.7% year-over-year increase in June—up from 2.4% the previous month. Meanwhile, core CPI, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, is projected to have risen 3% over the same period, compared to a prior gain of 2.8%.
If these numbers come in as expected, it could support the forecasts of analysts who have warned that the costs of Trump’s heavy import tariffs would eventually show up on price tags, as manufacturers, importers, and retailers pass along the burden through the supply chain. Since taking office, Trump has imposed a wide array of tariffs, including a 10% levy on most imports, a 25% duty on foreign automobiles, and tariffs exceeding 50% on Chinese products.
NDQ trade ideas
NASDAQ - Long Bias explanation and Entry/SL/TP ideasTrend : NASDAQ is in a strong uptrend at the moment
Retail : Majority have a BEARISH sentiment on this pair
Institutions : Increase in week over week holdings
Structures : No structures as we are at highs so targeting recent formed high + round number above makes sense
Price action : Sitting on a support shelf at the moment
Targets : Recent high + level at round number (23000)
Stops : Many options to place stops below
Entries : Positive bounce at current level, decent entry zone but further possible entry levels sit below too
If trading on a shorter timeframe, perhaps the gap fill is a good point to take the trade off the table.
Targeting higher than 23 might be dangerous as we are playing around at ATHs
NASDAQ 100 MAJOR REVERSAL SETUP/VOLUME WANINGElliott Wave Theory is a wonderful forecasting tool that provides confluence in conjunction with many technical such as the MFI, Awesome Oscillator, and Bull Bear Power.
Indicators such as Moving averages and ALL Chart Patterns just to name a few, beautifully align painting an amazing roadmap of reversals.
Motive wave in Green, Corrective wave in Pink
Orange Waves are sub waves.
Solid lines are completed, whereas the dotted lines are in progress. The likelihood of a wave count becoming invalidated has a lower probability on higher timeframes for example Day/Week/Month, whereas on lower timeframes such as 1 minute to 5 minute. I've observed wave count invalidation/recalculation of the wave counts more frequently.
With all the news of Tariffs and such the Elliott Wave follows the data, buy/sell side, liquidity, and volume.
Speaking of volume:
April Vol was 15.39M
May Vol was 10.74M
June Vol was 9.04M
As of July 11th it is at 3.37M with 17 trading days to go.
Don't get BULL trapped!!

🔹 Hypothetical Trade Setup:
Entry: On confirmation of the second UP signal
Stop-loss: Below the signal wick (minimal drawdown)
Reward: Price surged immediately, offering a strong rally of over 100 points in minutes
⏱️ No delay. No doubt.
✅ Traders were positioned before the herd caught on.

NQ: Upcoming Weekly analysis!FA Analysis:
1- Tariff On/Off: The noise will continue this week as well. Europe will be the target this week.
Uncertainty OR Eternity pause? Market might tend towards Eternity pause which is positive for stocks and equities.
2- New Earnings season: This will be on the driver seat for the next few weeks. Positive earnings for major stocks will impact positively NQ and vice-versa.
3- Macroeconomic data:
CPI and PPI will be relevant for July rate cut. Lower and inline inflation will be very good for July Rate cut; hence very good for Equities. Higher inflation data will be bad.
Also, Consumer sentiment and Inflation expectations, later in the week, will be very relevant.
So from FA Analysis, US equities might go either direction based on data outcomes.
TA Analysis:
Weekly TF: Direction is Buy!
The weekly close was irrelevant; it was inside the bullish green candle. Price must break and close below or above the master weekly candle to establish clear direction.
So nothing to trade from weekly perspective.
Daily TF: Direction is Neutral!
Same as weekly TF, we got an irrelevant daily close, inside the previous daily green candle (red dotted lines).
Price must break and close either below or above the dotted red lines for a clear direction.
Hourly TF: Direction is Neutral!
Based on the Weekly and Daily TF, clearly price is consolidating and looking for FA data to make decision on the next move.
Price is making LL-LH-HL-HH... and switching from one side to another reinforcing the consolidation.
Here are two scenarios:
Scenario 1: Good earnings, macroeconomic data and lower inflation will trigger a new ATH.
Scenario 2: Bad earnings, macroeconomic data and higher inflation will trigger a retrace.
Happy green week!
short on nas100I'm looking to short US 100 around the 22,840–22,850 supply zone, where price has previously shown strong rejection. I’m expecting a reversal from this resistance area, targeting the 22,660 level as my take profit. My entry is around the current price, and I’ve placed my stop loss just above the zone at 22,875 to manage risk. This setup gives me a clean structure and a solid risk-reward ratio for the move down.
NasdaqNon-commercials (hedge funds, asset managers, etc.) are adding significant long exposure.
This usually reflects confidence in continued upside, often in line with strong tech earnings, soft landing narratives, or a dovish Fed.
Bias: Bullish
Large speculators significantly increased long exposure on Nasdaq futures, showing strong confidence in continued upside momentum. This aligns with recent tech-led rallies and soft-landing expectations.
NSDQ100 Bullish breakout retest?Donald Trump escalated trade tensions again, threatening a 35% tariff on Canadian goods shortly after reopening trade talks, and floated doubling global tariffs to 20%. This reinforces his aggressive protectionist stance and puts renewed pressure on allies like Canada and Vietnam, the latter blindsided by a 20% levy. Meanwhile, US-China relations may be entering a critical phase, with a possible Trump-Xi summit hinted at by Marco Rubio during talks in Malaysia.
On the geopolitical front, Trump is signaling a harder line on Russia, previewing a “major statement” and backing expanded sanctions as the US sends more weapons to Ukraine. This raises global uncertainty, especially for energy and defense sectors.
Conclusion for NSDQ100 trading:
Rising trade tensions and geopolitical risks may dampen market sentiment and lead to volatility in tech-heavy Nasdaq stocks, particularly those reliant on global supply chains. While traders have grown numb to tariff talk, the cumulative pressure suggests a downside risk is building. In the short term, maintain a cautious stance—watch for potential pullbacks and heightened intraday volatility as policy clarity remains elusive.

One last squeeze and NAS100 could explode into the next rallyThe NAS100 is currently coiling within a tight consolidation range, showing signs of tension building up. After a strong push upward, price has been moving sideways in a narrowing structure. This build-up around the high, a compression of buyers and sellers in a low-volatility squeeze could be an indication that we could use. This kind of price action typically signals that buyers are gaining control, squeezing out sellers with each dip.
The lack of deep pullbacks combined with increasingly shallow sell-offs shows fading bearish momentum. Which is often typical during a buildup phase before a breakout. If buyers can push price above with a strong close, it could trigger breakout momentum and lead to a continuation of the larger bullish trend.
Ideally, if price reacts positively and forms bullish confirmation, it would set up a solid continuation entry, with upside potential toward the next target of 23.400.
Until then, bulls are watching closely for signs of commitment. The breakout is yet to be confirmed, but the squeeze is on, and the pressure is building.

Nasdaq 100 Dips as Tariffs Spark CautionWhile crypto markets rally, U.S. equities have cooled. The Nasdaq 100 dropped by 0.6% following the announcement of new tariffs, particularly those aimed at Canadian goods. Tech stocks are reacting cautiously to these developments, although Nvidia’s record-breaking $4 trillion market cap continues to provide some support for the index.
With major financials such as JPMorgan and Wells Fargo reporting Q2 earnings next week, investors will soon get clarity on how corporate America is coping with higher input costs and global trade tensions.
Technical View (Nasdaq 100):
The index is consolidating between resistance at 22,900 and support at 22,600. A break above 22,900 could reignite the tech rally, while a drop below support may see price test 22,400 and potentially 22,000 in coming sessions.

Nasdaq 100 Index 2-Hour Chart Analysis2-hour candlestick chart for the Nasdaq 100 Index (NDX) on the NASDAQ exchange. The chart spans from May to August, showcasing a significant upward trend with notable fluctuations. Key indicators include a recent price of 22,861.53, representing a 0.72% increase. The chart features technical analysis elements such as support and resistance levels, highlighted by green and red boxes, and a downward arrow suggesting a potential price movement.
Nasdaq leads the rally and can move for 3-5 days moreWhile crude oil is declining, tech stocks are gaining momentum: Nasdaq had reached another all-time-high recently and that might not be over: according to statistical studies, it rarely reverses quickly above the upper Bollinger Bands line and the average swing duration is between 17 and 20 days (which gives us several days of potential continuation).
The earnings season fuels growth for many technological stocks, and the “sell America” narrative steps back, so we may see Nasdaq growing as shown in the chart below.
