Description

Happy September, Happy Thursday,

The first level that NASDAQ needs to regain is 12300. Then 12550 & then 12700 to be back in safe territory. Line in the sand today is 12170

12K is blindly obvious psychological level. So organised/institutional money does not trade that level. So levels to watch are 11989, 927, 843 & 809.

Macro GB Mfg PMI, EU Unemployment Rate, US Jobless Claims, Nonfarm productivity, Labor Costs, Mfg PMI, Employment Index, New Orders Index

Comment

NASDAQ worked well with the zones. However, the price action was very choppy so after losing a trade, decided to stop trading and just observing price action. Two reasons:

1⃣ Did not want to give up the gains from
trades and the only winning trade of NASDAQ

2⃣ 1st Day of the month starting on a profitable note is very important for positive attitude, risk management & psychology

➡️ Overall 2 trades. 1 winning trade and 1 losing trade
➡️ 180 pts net gain on the day

Hi @Prahlad_N,

I am sorry to hear that. Study the levels I have given carefully. These levels work. They should provide you a guide.

Just out of curiosity, why & when did you go long on NASDAQ at 12500. Where did you have your stop loss and what target did you have in mind?

@TradingIndian,
Hi, thanks for your reply...
Unfortunately I did a mistake of not having stop loss....

I am long since Tuesday and it has been falling badly since I went long.. that's why a bit worried...
Your posts have been extremely helpful. However, this trade I just did thinking it will revert to 13k.levels...

@Prahlad_N,

Ok. Very very detailed levels are 12 170, 220, 233, 267, 282, 297, 318, 346, 369, 383, 409, 430, 445, 476, 497 & then you B/E. So there are many steps. Right now it is showing signs of recovery. It has created a base but 12136 should not break.

I hope this helps you.
