NASDAQ Futures: My Plan for current Week (7-11 July, 2025)Week: July 7–11, 2025
Instrument: NASDAQ Futures (NQ)
Trend: Overall, the market remains bullish, but for this week I anticipate a retracement targeting the $22,582 level.
Bias for the week: Bearish
Overview:
This week, I’m watching NQ for a potential move toward the $22,582 level. This expectation is based on how Thursday (July 3, 2025) played out—specifically the buy-side liquidity that was taken, and the clean sell-side liquidity pool left near $22,582.
I also find it notable how the NWOG (New Week Opening Gap) was opened and how price moved below it, which reinforces the short bias.
I would consider opening a short position once I see a confirmed 4H candle close below $22,760, otherwise no trades will be taken.
* Trade execution details will be published separately if my bias confirms.

#EURUSD: Nothing to expect from DXY| View Changed Swing Trading|Hey there! So, we were previously thinking EURUSD was going to be bearish, but things have turned around and it’s looking bullish for now.
The extreme bearish pressure on USD has caused all the major USD pairs to be in a range. As the week goes on and we get the NFP data, the market will probably focus more on these economic indicators. So, it’s not surprising to see some market ranges during this time.
We’ll keep a close eye on the market, as there might be some manipulation going on this week.
We recommend waiting until Monday’s daily candle closes to see if the bullish trend is strong enough. Then, based on the price momentum, you can make your decisions.
We hope you have a great week and safe trading! If you like our work and analysis, please consider liking, commenting, and sharing our content.

Bitcoin – ATH Sweep or Breakout?Bitcoin is pushing into a critical decision point as it challenges the previous all-time high near 110k. After a strong push out of a rounded bottom formation with clean higher lows, price has now broken above the last visible resistance area and is hovering just under the ATH liquidity. This rally has been aggressive, but the reaction here will determine whether this move becomes an extended breakout or a classic trap.
Liquidity and Key Resistance
The ATH zone around 110k carries a large pool of liquidity, and price is now testing it for the first time since the breakout. We’ve already had a clean break above the prior resistance zone, but we haven’t yet seen a confirmed close above ATH with convincing volume. If price manages to close strongly above this level on the 4H or daily chart, that would be a sign that bulls are in full control. Until then, the possibility of a sweep and rejection remains firmly on the table.
Sweep Scenario and Downside Levels
If we fail to close convincingly above the ATH and instead see a wick through followed by a strong reversal, that would confirm the sweep. In that case, I’d expect short setups to activate quickly, with downside targets sitting around 105k. This level marks the structure support below the most recent breakout, and would be a logical point for price to rebalance before continuing any broader uptrend. A rejection from current levels would also trap late longs and provide fuel for a quick retracement.
Bullish Breakout Scenario
If we do get that proper breakout above 110k, backed by strong volume and continuation candles, the upside opens fast. There’s very little structure above the ATH, so price could move cleanly up into the next round psychological target around 115k. This move would confirm continuation of the higher timeframe trend and offer short-term breakout retests for potential long re-entries.
Volume and Candle Confirmation Are Crucial
At this stage, the setup is binary and all about confirmation. A clean 4H or daily close above ATH with follow-through volume will flip the bias fully bullish. But if we get signs of exhaustion and a failed breakout attempt, the sweep setup becomes highly probable. Waiting for confirmation here is key, rather than trying to front-run the move.
Conclusion
Bitcoin is sitting right at a high-stakes level. We either continue into price discovery toward 115k if momentum follows through, or we see a classic liquidity sweep and rejection back into 105k. The clean structure and recent higher lows support both sides of the argument, but execution will depend on how price reacts around the ATH. Either way, this zone is the key pivot for the next major swing.

Trading AUDUSD NZDUSD | Judas Swing Strategy 25/06/2025This week the Judas Swing strategy has delivered two clean setups on OANDA:AUDUSD and $NZDUSD. Both trades played out beautifully, hitting their targets and ending the day with a solid +4% return (2% each), reinforcing the power of patience, structure, and sticking to the rules.
Let’s break down how each trade unfolded:
Trade 1: OANDA:AUDUSD Long — Textbook Setup
We kicked off Wednesday’s session watching OANDA:AUDUSD closely after identifying a classic Judas Swing scenario.
First, we saw liquidity swept below the previous session’s low, exactly what we’re looking for. This kind of move is crucial to the strategy, it grabs early sellers or stop orders and sets the stage for a reversal.
Right after the sweep, price broke structure to the upside, confirming our bullish bias. At this point, we didn’t rush in. We waited for price to retrace into our FVG (Fair Value Gap).
Patience paid off and price finally tapped into the FVG, and as soon as the entry candle closed in our direction, we executed the trade.
We risk 1% on every trade, aiming for a 2:1 reward-to-risk. After being in drawdown for a bit, price accelerated sharply and hit our target after being in the trade for 5 hours. Clean setup, clean execution, and a smooth +2% return.
Trade 2: OANDA:NZDUSD Long
OANDA:NZDUSD presented a near-identical setup. Price had been consolidating, but by the time the NY session rolled in, the stage was set.
Just like OANDA:AUDUSD , we saw a liquidity sweep at the lows, followed by a bullish break of structure, textbook Judas Swing again.
This time, the retracement into the FVG came swiftly. We executed as soon as we had confirmation on the candle close.
The trade barely hesitated, and price moved decisively in our direction, steadily climbing until our target was hit. Another +2% return, reinforcing the strategy’s strength when rules are respected
What This Week Reminds Us:
Discipline matters: We don’t chase trades. Both setups met all our checklist criteria
Patience is key: Waiting for the FVG entry and confirmation avoids emotional entries
Risk management is the foundation: With a 1% risk and 2:1 target, you only need to win half the time to be consistently profitable
When you follow a rules-based strategy like Judas Swing, you remove the guesswork and bring structure to your trading decisions.
EUR/JPY higherPrice retraced from Weekly FVG. The retracement had high momentum down, making Fair Value Gaps on the 4H. After 3 things aligned:
1. Price made new 4H Fair Value Gap coming from the Daily Fair Value Gap
2. Price disrespected Swing High in 4H Fair Value Gap
3. Rejection off D FVG closed with perfect 2 candle rejection.
I entered the trade after I've seen the close on the daily timeframe, Stop below the 4H Fair Value Gaps.
EURAUD: Possible Swing Movement of 660 pips expected! FX:EURAUD on daily candles of last few days breakthrough and now dropping back to demand zone where we expect price to bounce strongly and at least we expect target one to accomplished by end of January. While target two and three remain a long away from our current price area. Stop Loss should be below the strong wick of daily candle.
From fundamentals side AUD will be weaken and EURO can be bullish for next few months, taking entry will require a strict risk management as this is a swing trade, do not expect to achieve the target in couple of hours or days.
Good luck and trade safe.
NASDAQ READY TO CONTINUE THE LONG-TERM WEEKLY BULLISH RUN
FX:NAS100
I just entered this buy trade on Nasdaq on the daily time frame.
The trade setup is a Swing trade following the monthly and weekly orderflow.
The Monthly is bullish, the weekly is also bullish, so I entered on the daily time frame retracement.
My overall take profit is a risk reward of 1:4.
GBPUSD IS LOOKING WEAK FOR A HARD SELL OFF SWING TRADEOANDA:GBPUSD Has broken the bullish swing low on 4 Hour time frame with strong sell off bearish candles leaving behind a big bearish imbalances in price. Which extra confirm that price is extremely bearish on 4 Hour time frame.
Now that trend has shifted from bullish trend to a bearish one, am now bearish on GBPUSD.
Bearish shift in market structure that happened on OANDA:EURUSD EURUSD which is a correlating pair with GBPUSD extra confirm this bearish bias on GBPUSD.
likewise also, the Bullish Shift in Market Structure on OANDA:USDCAD USDCAD, which is an opposite correlating pair confirm this sell on GBPUSD.
So, my focus now is selling GBPUSD in every pullback or retest of key bearish levels.
I will update you as the trade develop.
USDCAD SWING TRADE LONG IDEA - MASSIVE BULLISH MOVE COMING?OANDA:USDCAD USDCAD has given a massive bullish break of structure on 4 Hour time frame after tapping to a strong key level on weekly time frame that is serving as support.
Now am bullish on USDCAD for a weekly income swing trading moves.
All I need right now to enter for a long to ride the move is a pull back to key level of support like old highs or imbalance levels.
That is when I will take a bullish long trade on USDCAD.
This is my A+ Trading Setup.
What do you see on your chart?
Could be a Crazy BuyBeen waiting for WEEKS to see GBPAUD Trade into a Daily Orderblock.

The reason I say this could be a great buy is because

Bearish USD/CAD Presents a Selling Opportunity Now.FenzoFx—USD/CAD surged to 1.3686, a resistance zone backed by a bearish Fair Value Gap. Stochastic shows 81.0, signaling short-term overpricing. The market remains bearish below 1.3729, with fundamentals pointing to a stronger CAD.
A decline toward 1.362 is likely if USD/CAD stays below 1.3729.
Traders, it's time to pay close attention! 🚨 USDJPY 4H Setup Alert – High-Probability Play Unfolding! 🚨
Traders, it's time to pay close attention! 🧠📊
The USDJPY pair has just perfectly tapped into a key bullish Fair Value Gap (FVG) on the 4-hour chart — a classic move in the smart money playbook. What’s more? We've just seen a clean sweep of internal range liquidity (IRL) — a textbook liquidity grab that signals potential accumulation by larger players. 💥💼
This is not just noise — it's a significant signal. The market structure is hinting at a possible shift in momentum, and bullish pressure is building. The trap has been set, the weak hands have been shaken out, and smart money may be preparing for a strong upward push. 📈🐂
🔮 What’s the next move?
All eyes are now on the external range liquidity (ERL) — a prime liquidity pool sitting above current price levels. If price accelerates toward it, this zone could act as the magnet and the catalyst for the next explosive move upward. 🚀
🔥 Key Points to Watch:
Bullish FVG reaction ✅
IRL liquidity swept ✅
Bullish market structure forming 🏗️
ERL liquidity resting overhead — potential target 🎯
Volume profile & order flow confirming accumulation? 👀
⚠️ Stay alert and don’t chase — let the setup come to you.
Smart money might already be stepping in, and if this momentum follows through, we could be witnessing the beginning of a strong leg up.
Mark your charts and monitor closely — opportunity is knocking. 📍🕵️♂️
Judas Swing Monday Recap – Sticking to the Plan Pays 09/06/2025In case you're new to the Judas Swing Strategy, here’s the strategy in a nutshell:
It’s a classic price manipulation strategy where the market fakes a move in one direction (the “Judas” move), usually after the 00:00–08:30 EST window, before sharply reversing. This tactic is often used by smart money to trap retail traders around key highs/lows, followed by a reversal into a Fair Value Gap (FVG) for entry confirmation.
We began Monday spotting a textbook Judas Swing on FX:EURUSD which was our first trade of the day. Price took out session lows, grabbing liquidity, then gave us a break of structure to the upside and a clean reversal into the FVG.
We entered long with our stop loss below the manipulation low. The trade moved nicely into profit and came within points of our target but just as we were anticipating a clean 1:2, price stalled and reversed aggressively, stopping us out.
Trade Outcome: Loss
Risk-Reward: -1%
Lesson: Even the most valid setups will sometimes fail
The next Judas swing setup came on $GBPUSD. Price swept the low of the zone, then gave a break of structure, with price retracing into the FVG. We entered long, placing the stop loss 10 pips below entry price.
The trade rallied hard post-entry, hitting our target with minimal drawdown
Trade Outcome: Win
Risk-Reward: +2%
This is why we take every valid setup. The win here offset the earlier FX:EURUSD loss, keeping us net even on the day at this point
The final Judas swing setup on Monday was on OANDA:AUDUSD , and it couldn’t have been cleaner. After a strong sweep of previous lows, price reversed and broke structure convincingly. An FVG formed and price retraced into it beautifully.
We entered long, placing the stop below the liquidity sweep. Price then rallied steadily throughout the session, and retraced almost hitting our stop loss but turned around and hit our 1:2 target.
Trade Outcome: Win
Risk-Reward: +2%
Despite starting the day with a loss, staying disciplined and trading all valid Judas setups left us with:
1 loss ( FX:EURUSD -1%)
2 wins ( FX:GBPUSD +2%, OANDA:AUDUSD +2%)
Net Gain: +3R
This is why a rules-based approach beats emotional trading. Stick to the process, and the edge takes care of the rest.
