NQ Range (01-20-23)

MAZing Updated   
CME_MINI:NQ1!   NASDAQ 100 E-mini Futures
NAZ failed to move out of narrow range and may follow White Diag TL lower. Expecting Drop/Pop as the NAZ may attempt to get back in the Box. Should O/N Prop lift, expect a Sell Off out of the Box during Open. Level 11300 may hold or pause any drop. Sideways to lower with weak pop should the NAZ not hit lower target.

Note: For those that follow, after 3 years and nearly 500 Daily TV Post's, I will be ending the Daily Forecast & Intraday free service. I am moving to a private service that will use TradingView Charts, including my IDS Indicators. Message me if you have interest. I will continue some usual post's through the end of January or so, until new program is ready. Thanks for following and all your support.
Comment:
NAZ is exactly in Mid of 300 point POC range, could see Drop/Pop or Pop/Drop. The ending point may be exactly where the NAZ is now. Waiting for additional Tech Earnings to come next week.
Comment:
11431 is KL to NAZ getting back in the Channel
Comment:
O/N Range to watch for break out.
Comment:
NAZ still working between the Box Zones
Comment:
NNAZ stayed in range and if you scalped up and down you are working it. Scalping is the way to play until break out. NAZ will be rejected at channel or get back in and head toward 11600
Comment:
Looks like we have some TV Authors in comments section gently trying to advertise or introduce their services. Let me know if they provide intraday live calls, trades, entry, exits, targets, HEAD FAKE & Rigger warnings and a daily forecast of price action. I would love to just sit back and press buttons and have someone/something else to all the hard work. The reason I provide the service, I just could not find it (real results). If so, you just have to do it yourself. Free world and best travels to you all.
Comment:
So most likely we see a Drop/Pop today. Yesterday low or Bottom 1st 30M is bounce target. Bounce up to POC and wait and see. May see stall, fall. NAZ has been slightly dropping back and then moving up (just like yesterday INTRADAY call, prior to the 150 point run back up). If no drop, look for Pop/Drop. Good luck today.
Comment:
Today's POC is 30 points above yesterday's. Clock 80-100 points on trades and take profits, unless we get a runner and that would suggest up 1st. Failed runner will be a great Short set up. Today is a key day prior to very busy week ahead. Keep me posted if you find a good "fortune teller" with real results. What ever happened to Bigfoot?
Comment:
Just review the flow of yesterday and count the points, expect the same until flow changes. Do Not Get Shaken Out of YOUR Trades by the Riggers. Trading is not technical, it is a street fight against the GANGS.
Comment:
NAZ battling the BOX Bottom. This may help with bigger view of recent range and targets. 11,600 to 11,200 is all in play, 400 points but only 200 if you get the trade correct. The NAZ can do 200 in 10 minutes and go sideways until next move. That is likely to the upside as it would set up well for next week (providing stall does not fall).
Comment:
11431 is KL today
Comment:
11431 pass and now Top 1st 30M of Yesterday. No Pass, drop back to 31, 400 or 370 for Drop/Pop set up. May look like a Short
Comment:
11472 will/may block any lift and 1st Long test passed 11446
Comment:
IDS20 Sweet Spot of trade and look for fall back halfway and next move. I tend to anticipate and have 5 or more contracts in these zones. Drop a few after stall and wait for reverse or check off yellow line for next run. Notice how circles are rising, after 3 or so you can expect a direction change or level check. May see that now.
Comment:
Yo Yo PA is great if you understand up and down, FOMO, BTD, Mr Retail and the Riggers. Hang until Open as drop/pop is likely. You can Short this to mid range if you want.
Comment:
11472 hit
Comment:
100 point runs continue.
Comment:
KL 11472, back to 431
Comment:
NAZ may roll under 11472, back under
Comment:
11472 is Top 1st 30M, coincidence?
Comment:
Short under 475 for now. 11475 to 430 is range. Push pull may show up here.
Comment:
Scalp range and wait for break out.
Comment:
Head fake zone near 475, watch the Ticks. I cant type fast enough and trade.
Comment:
Dead Zone drop to POP as lift is stalling out. No hold at KL's going lower will keep dropping. NAZ back at 100 run level.
Comment:
Major move is next, in or ot of channel.
Comment:
I went flat at 1st 472 hit and waiting. Back later as this plays out. Looking like drop but games will be played during Friday Dead Zone.
Comment:
Slow lift 11530 is KL, Back to 472 for test at stall. I will not chase may keep lifting. 431 to 531 is run and look for turn or trail.
Trade closed manually:
11472 did rollover and the typical clean out or MOP is about 50 points above. This will have to keep the Dead Zone magic float action or it may drop quickly to 472 and retest. I have seen these run and 11600 is a level that I did mention as target. I use 5-10 contracts and is why I tend to bail early. You should be good just watch the snap. 11562 is next Pivot.
Comment:
NAZ is tarting to stall/flatten, no roll and up another 100 or so. Roll and back to 475 450. NAZ has only generated 200 or so, so will find another 100 or so up or down. I would chase if not a Friday and DZ lift. 11400 rotated 50 points above and below before breaking out, expect the same at 11520. Netflix is stuck on 7% or so, may see some selling.
Comment:
Perfect set up for next week to offset any drop as earnings may be bad. Most likely the yo yo play here. 11460 is a pivot and so is 11560, 100 points and in line with flow.
Comment:
Todays POC is now above 11520 at 11540. strong this is where selling may occur.
Comment:
Shorting 10 for any dip at 11535
Comment:
out for 20 for 200
Comment:
SCALPER on the Long Trap, this may drop at no pass of POC
Comment:
Drop test #1
Comment:
DZ Games, mentioned earlier. Dip was bought QUICKLY. May see another.
Comment:
Watch the speed on #2
Comment:
Dips will go lower and lower until they don't
Comment:
White lines are the POC Rotate Range.
Comment:
Notice the break above white arrow, Clean Out that I mentioned. Usually fake and drops back below after all excess is gone. Above Red Line is Strong Long on Hold.
Comment:
This move up is Algo's and will usually be followed by drop in next session. NAZ stopping at rotate Zone. No pass and lower we go should NAZ not hold at POC test. I have zero respect for the NAZ and believe very little of any strange day pops. Called this level in forecast, but for Pop/Drop, I do not expect it to hold for long.
Comment:
From yesterday low NAZ is up 300 and 100 or so away from recent high, 75 -85% retrace is normal. Next move can be lower and I doubt back to recent high. Reason I did no go Long 10, wish I would have. Need to work on that, just seemed too easy.
Comment:
FNG1 is at similar level as earlier, Netflix same, apple did lift some. Just trying to figure where the last 100 points came from? Dow did lift some, SP and Russell are the same. Bigfoot is back with some magic dust. May drop another 10 hammer by close.
Comment:
And HOLD it. This is a classic Edge Trade Opportunity. Just feel that Short has more room to run then Long at this level. 11625 is next POC, watch the level. Anyway, this is where I expected the Drop, just did not look like it had the gas earlier.
Comment:
All 100 and last one was vertical, flow will change. Last one has seemed to gone stationary, kind of odd. Prior times I have mentioned this and was shaken out of the trade, you will see many of these in my prior Post's. This looks very much the same. Today is only 200 points so I may be earlier and may wait. If you add the 5 arrows it is 500 (on a 200ish day) a retracement is due.
Comment:
Shorting 5 at 11620, 40 point stop.
Comment:
Using points from earlier.
Comment:
Target is 11540 and will hold this should I not get stopped.
Comment:
Stopped , Mostly curious as to why such an extreme Prop today? Just what is coming? Only thought is narrow in on weekly loss, today did do that. Hard to beat the machines. Last time I did this I was stopped with in 10 points and the next day ran 500. Watch this play out as I notice the vertical fake lift.
Comment:
NAZ did run the additional 100 or more, just is same direction. High is 20 points above stop, watch this. Options expiration my friends, just glad I used gains on stop.
Comment:
Funny but this is a perfect Long Sweet Spot on my own system. Just shows how hard this is. I could not have placed this any more terrible. Still think NAZ will drop in final 2 minutes or so.
Comment:
Mid Channel
Comment:
NAZ still Boxed in and today may just have been too easy.
Comment:
This close is really odd so far. Watch this thing just tank. Notice my stop and the current price, every time.
Comment:
Getting sloppy on a easy Friday. Just did not think the NAZ would get to target, pass it and hold it. Today's levels for all indexes are very convenient. FOLLOW YOUR SYSTEM and stop thinking. Algo's do not have thoughts.
Big week next week and rest up over the weekend.
Comment:
The U Turn from 11300 went 400 points, yesterday low. The 400 points in the down direction would have taken the NAZ back to bottom of Danger Zone. The Options expirations today, defiantly had much to do with this PA. Just amazing that when the NAZ gets near serious trouble and all are gloom and doom, some strange U Turn PA comes to the rescue. We will see if it holds, just need to start believing in the unbelievable and stop thinking about any sort of reality!
Comment:
So I checked a few other Authors after missing the balance of my Long Call (That I bailed on). I can't tell if they actually traded the U Turn at all. I think one was short or suggested Shorting? Again, let me know if you (follower) can find anything that will let me sit back and press buttons (daily in both directions).
