Short
Updated

NQ Short (12-04-25)

926
Nothing new, still liking the Short. Seems like market is waiting on Stimulus, QE or something because price action is aimless. Only appears to lift in O/N, Dead Zone or any lower volume trading period. Open Drive selloff of no return, or not.
Note
May see a BTD head fake today. Drop and failed BTD/FOMO advanced strategy.
Note
Just prior to open the NAZ gets through the major resistance zone of 650-700 that has been blocking for 3 days, really. See the tricks, and now the Reg will do what? We will see a 2 way day today as the pump will get drop tested and have to decide what is real. Notice the PA, that is a FA straight up and these usually get the retest.
snapshot
Note
Under 650 and stays under, look short.
snapshot
Note
O/N volume is about 25% less than normal, easy to throw around.
Note
1st move cleaned out FA and retested ML of O/N Range
snapshot
Note
On the Yellow arrow and will move some
snapshot
Note
Run Forrest.
snapshot
Note
Pump/Dump and usual tricks, No Tweets and we will see a major drop. Dead Zone is only challenge with the redirect lift.
Note
ODR or this is going sideways to nowhere. 420 is target
Note
May see the BTD head fake, only chance at drop and decent retest.
snapshot
Note
650-420-0is range, back later. Scalp it up/down or straight down is 420 is played out.
Note
Notice where we are on this chart. The way to play the NAZ lately is to delay your bigger picture trade until after the exact opposite move is played out, then place your trade at the rigged redirect level in the direction of your original thought.
snapshot
Note
Under 600 now should retest 480, This is 1st move of Head Fake.
snapshot
Note
600-480 is range here, may rig pop higher at bounce on 480 or 420
snapshot
Note
Yellow arrow is bigger picture play once the fake noise ends.
snapshot
Note
Range and they will try to keep NAZ above Long Term TL 550.
snapshot
Note
Careful on the bait. PA is selling the lifts back up have NOT been holding. Keep that in mind if you chase.
snapshot
Note
Starting just watch it. Volume is so weak/low that push/pull will have to show up on any major drop move. Back Later.
snapshot
Note
586 again is Pop or Hook Short. Yesterday has snail lift and today may be expressway lower.
snapshot
Note
Under 550 is all you need to know here. May see rotation around and then move away. Thinking lower but may not be ready, today.
snapshot
Note
620 will need to hook.
snapshot
Note
Another strange one. Look inside the yellow arrow and not much more.
snapshot
Note
550 is clearly being protected and will need to hold.
snapshot
Note
All I see are FA brake pumping counter moves that are keeping the NAZ away from the big dipper.
snapshot
Trade closed manually
O/N tonight or Open Drive tomorrow, or both may be the periods that that we see a drop. Dead Zone is continuing to redirect the drops, this may be Mr Retail and hid dip buying strategy. Interesting to see if F-M long play works going into the weekend. Playing Open Drive and going back to deliver Pizzas. Garbage, short scalping with wide stops, can't type these in and trade at same time. 20 point nibble at a time, in/out until the big dipper run.
Note
10YN is up 1% today, not good for stocks.
snapshot
Note
620-550 is range to watch, 550 hit may get FA spike back to 620. If not big dipper below 500. 620 is ML of range and NTZ unless scalping
Note
Here below 620 may have some or the BTD Head Fake, scalp Short and let it run if it breaks.
snapshot
Note
Needs to break 500
snapshot
Note
Ticks are negative 1,200 and up.
Note
550 is back as level to watch.
Note
420 is ODR
Note
484 is support or may slow the drop.
snapshot
Note
Spike back to 550
snapshot
Note
Range now 550-480
Note
Under 560 most buyers over prior 3 days are negative and may hit sell button should this not get back up. That is what the pro's set up. If gets back up, it may rotate for another day.
Note
Quick spike back up, sign of strong buying or strong Rig, back to NTZ and exactly why to scalp until Big Dipper. In/Out and we have gone nowhere.
snapshot
Note
NAZ clearly on the Edge of the Danger Zone and going into the Safe Zone of the O/N, will have to wait 1 more night unless major sell into the Close. Best RIG Job ever, just amazing.
snapshot
Note
Past 3 days the NAZ has been in range of 660-570 (generally), big move is on the way and thinking LOWER. Just need to get past the games/Tricks and let it run free.
Note
Many times the Diablo Crossings are reliable as Short Targets, keep in mind for O/N and tomorrow. Not feeling it now but me see final 10M insanity.
snapshot
Note
Up in O/N, Push/Pull day.
snapshot
Note
Keep using counter move prior to anticipated move to set up trades.
Note
Try this and may bounce on drop.
snapshot
Note
On chart below you will see that NAZ is rotating around the orange TL, 580 or so past 3-4 days.
snapshot
Note
11/30 started at 488 and is now at 580.
