NQ Range (05-15-22) 

E-mini Nasdaq-100 FuturesCME

Description

NAZ range day, upper target is the O/N prop target. A stall near is the proposed Short level. The lower range is the drop test or Long target. A failure here would suggest a move to Red line. The circle is the Strong Short and deeper drop lower zone. Friday was a low volume lift and prop session back to previous high, this most likely a Long Trap or start of a Short. The NAZ continues to be propped during odd times and O/N sessions, this will break.

Comment

White arrow will show the late Friday Prop, volume does not match PA. Sign of future Air Pocket.

Comment

Left box is 300 point 4 minute O/N 1 way prop and Right are Friday (odd PA) props. Take these away and where is the strength? Definitely not in Open Session. The Open sold off the day of and day after 300 point 4 minute Prop. Friday was just a retrace back to high Prop level.

Comment

Friday's fake rally at end of day (air pocket) was tested in O/N. Careful on Short side, pivot above at 13670 and would not be surprised if NAZ just runs straight up to test it prior to Open or in 1st 30M. These days it all about tricks and timing of things and not at all about real price action.

Comment

Comment

Watch Walmart, should POP if real Bull and if not just another clue.

Comment

The attached is an extreme joke of an idea of next move, watch this actually play out. This how you need to think when plotting moves. Again this is not a real call, just a joke or fake call that will most likely work.

Comment

You just want to lay in heavy with a Short and the constant lifting and retracements of the NAZ makes you hesitate and freeze. This is by design and the game being played out by the pros. Do it with a stop or wait until a long stall. The last long stall was Friday afternoon and that was turned into a 80 point fake rally. The issue is with volume recently and not value, strong buying.

Comment

Data from China was negative and that may be why the Prop Up late last week played out. Funny how the ying/yang usually plays out. Why did the NAZ rally on no volume and no buying late Friday? There you go.

Comment

Indecisive so going with 1st move Short to 13490 then 13450. Stop at 135745 and will place short under 13575 or close too. Pass 13575, no trade.

Comment

No trade. will stretch NAZ up 13625

Comment

Under Near 13625, look Short.

Comment

Bounce off 45

Comment

Game is in range of high and 13550, stepping away.

Comment

High of 625 will fall.

Comment

No Strength in The NAZ, will Drop/POP fail.

Comment

1st 30M 100 point candle, 375 is Friday high and no pass is drop test to bottom 1st 30m. You should of had 3 short trades by now.

Comment

DZ lift is expected prop.

Comment

DZ failure is Long Trap for BTD's.

Comment

Above chart (joke trade) may play out.

Comment

Strong Prop strength, have to ask why? Just do not feel real strength behind these moves up. More points with short side today than retracements except for open drive. Below 575 is strong short, anything above may pick up speed and go to 675.

Comment

Drop/Pop is playing out. Looking for failure and then decent Drop.

Comment

13620 bounce test.

Comment

Vertical, again.

Comment

I have a Short call at 13700 (original call). This may be upper target, hold off on Shorting until retest from Under High or target (2-3 times).

Comment

Open drive gets sold off (bearish), then Dead Zone rallies (odd). Looks like games, this may actually fall. Again, only growth gains are on odd times or strange price action, very consistent.

Comment

Longest trade today was DZ Long, just the opposite of what was expected. Time to seriously look SHORT.

Comment

2nd hit at 13660 did drop 30. Look for next failure.

Comment

Waiting on Short signal.

Comment

Today's 150 point range is about half of usual. NAZ will go another 150 up or down.

Comment

13655 Short is worth a try, with stop.

Comment

Ticks changing short signal should follow

Comment

3rd hit go or stop.

Comment

Just like Friday, Frozen and then it ran. Could happen again or maybe not.

Comment

AMZN is dropping and VIX is up. Not positive Volume on NQ. What do you think UP?

Comment

Stepping away with Short on and stop.

Comment

added 2 more short at 13662 and 85 stop.

Comment

Lower Yellow arrow is the key, no positive volume and the NAZ is lifting, say what?
Should snap crackle and drop. This is fun since such strange movement. Now ticks rising and volume is not.

Comment

A real lift would not take so long, anyway this will give it back at some point and most likely by OED. Will reload if I get stopped.

Comment

DZ 10am angles, pretty steep.

Comment

Bazarro Divergence

Comment

2 more at 13665, 5 on Short with stop at 13685

Comment

Short signal on IDS 20.

Comment

Slow mo grinder, will drop 3 short at 13630 and other 2 at 13586. Stepping away
Stop on all 5 at 13670

Comment

NQ volume so far today is 350k, pretty low.

Comment

Closing 2 at 35 will hold 3 for retest from under at 35 and stop at 70.

Comment

Stopped -31

Comment

Shorting 5 at 80

Comment

Stop at 13725

Comment

Target 13635

Comment

Should turn under 13700

Comment

5 additional at 88, stop at 13725

Comment

Dropping 5 at 88 at 78 +50

Comment

Short 5 at 13693, stalling

Comment

10 short to 13640 or stop.

Comment

Looks like Friday.

Comment

No 760 and NAZ will drop.

Comment

Zero selling, just not normal at all.

Comment

any sell orders and this will tank. Not looking good.

Comment

CME NQ Volume is 400k, nothing.

Comment

Dropped 10 at 88 +35

Comment

NAZ will Pop in the close, most likely.

Trade closed manually

DZ Magic just keeps the NAZ elevated. If you were Long and institutional, would you sell? Not until the exit starts. Should be soon as DZ and O/N lifts can only go so far.

Comment

Finally a sell signal at 13700. knew it was near. Darn.

Nice drop call, I shorted 630 and closed it now at 540. Kinda expecting more float-up action today, as the number of retail buyers might flock in given how last week closed.
jakslo23
@jakslo23, yeah, poppy-floaty-uppy ongoing. But we are getting closer and closer to big, fat short play.
jakslo23
Whipsawing already in the O/N. Buckle up for open, gonna be a nice rollercoaster.
jakslo23
@jakslo23, also, heading overbought on negative candles, is it a day of the top and reversal?
jakslo23
@jakslo23, I think today we will go overbought on daily, then tmr still a pump, and then a dump begins.
jakslo23
@jakslo23, your 700 is very likely, but I wouldn't be surprised if it tops at 800ish
bonnenul
@jakslo23 agree
