Nasdaq 100 – A Quiet Accumulation Before the Next PushThe Nasdaq 100 (US100) is showing early signs of a structural rebalancing after the recent correction. Price is currently hovering near 25,600, retracing modestly after a short-term rebound from the 25,280 demand zone — a level where Smart Money seems to have re-entered quietly. 💭 1️⃣ Market Structure – A Story of Displacement and Repricing The current chart reveals a clear Break of Structure (BOS) followed by a corrective pullback. After the previous sell-off, price found support at the 25,280 – 25,300 range — a discount zone aligning with both an order block and a trendline confluence. This zone likely served as institutional demand, where Smart Money began accumulating long positions before the upward displacement. The recent retracement, however, remains within a corrective structure, meaning we could still see one more liquidity sweep before the market decides its next major leg. 🩶 2️⃣ Supply & Demand Zones – The Footprints of Institutions Karina is currently tracking three zones that matter most to the structure: Demand Zone: 25,280 – 25,300: The base of institutional accumulation and current structural support. Supply Zones: 25,970 – 26,160: A major bearish order block where Smart Money previously distributed positions — likely the next liquidity target. The most probable scenario: a retest of the lower demand → a liquidity grab → bullish displacement toward 25,970 – 26,160 → reversal back to equilibrium. 🧭 3️⃣ Liquidity Flow – The Path of Least Resistance Above the current range lies buy-side liquidity resting at 26,000+, while below, sell-side liquidity has already been swept near 25,280. This suggests that the next move could be an engineered push upward — designed to collect liquidity above 25,970 – 26,160 before potential continuation back into the demand zone. Such a move would mirror the classic SMC liquidity cycle: Accumulate → Displace → Manipulate → Distribute. 🌙 4️⃣ Trading Outlook – Patience Before Precision Karina’s bias for the day is moderately bullish, anticipating a short-term expansion toward the upper liquidity pool. However, she remains cautious — waiting for confirmation near the demand zone before entering long. Buy Idea: Entry: 25,280 – 25,300 Stop Loss: below 25,200 Target 1: 25,970 Target 2: 26,160 If the liquidity sweep at 26,160 completes, Karina expects a controlled retracement — a potential short setup back into equilibrium around 25,400. 🌷 5️⃣ Reflection – When the Market Whispers, Smart Money Listens The chart right now feels calm, methodical — like the quiet before a decisive wave. Smart Money rarely rushes. It absorbs, manipulates, and moves when most traders stop paying attention. For Karina, this is one of those moments where patience becomes the most powerful strategy. The next move will not be random — it will be precise, intentional, and elegant, just like the rhythm of liquidity itself 🌙 This analysis reflects Karina’s personal perspective and is not financial advice. How do you see the US100’s next move? Is Smart Money gearing up for another liquidity sweep above 26k? Let’s discuss below 💬

NAS100 Buy Setup – VSA & Multi-Zone Demand Analysis✅ Primary Entry Zone: Major support for current week (around 23,325–23,350) ✅ Secondary Entry Zone: Potential reversal zone if primary support is broken (around 23,200–23,230) 🎯 Target 1 (TP1): Previous swing high near 23,500 🎯 Target 2 (TP2): Extension above 23,550 🛑 Stop Loss (SL): Below 23,170 (beyond secondary reversal zone to avoid false breaks) 📊 Technical Insight (VSA & Price Action Structure) Support Structure: The current major support zone has been tested multiple times with no follow-through selling, indicating strong buying interest from larger players. Volume Spread Analysis Observations: On the recent decline into the major support zone, we see wider spreads on high volume followed by narrow range candles on lower volume, a classic sign of stopping volume and supply exhaustion. Within the secondary reversal zone, historical reactions show climactic volume spikes leading to sharp reversals, suggesting this level is watched closely by smart money. Any test back into the zone on low volume would confirm the No Supply (NS) condition. Trade Pathways: Scenario 1: Price respects the major support and begins to climb, confirming demand dominance → target TP1 then TP2. Scenario 2: Support is temporarily breached, triggering a liquidity grab into the secondary reversal zone, followed by a bullish reversal bar on high volume → strong buy signal with potentially faster move toward TP levels. 📍 Bias: Bullish as long as price holds above the secondary reversal zone. 📌 Execution Tip: Wait for a wide spread up-bar on increased volume from either zone to confirm the start of the markup phase.

Nasdaq 100 Index Hits New Highs Ahead of Big Tech EarningsNasdaq 100 Index Hits New Highs Ahead of Big Tech Earnings Earlier, we noted signs of optimism in the Nasdaq 100 index as the market anticipated earnings reports from major tech firms. Now, companies such as Alphabet (GOOGL) and Tesla (TSLA) have already released their results (we previously covered their charts → here and here). Up next are the most highly anticipated earnings reports: this week, tech giants including Microsoft (MSFT), Amazon (AMZN), Meta Platforms (META), and Apple (AAPL) are set to publish their results. The combined market capitalisation of these four companies exceeds $11 trillion, and their reports could have a significant impact on a stock market that is already showing strong bullish sentiment: → The Nasdaq 100 index has climbed to an all-time high, surpassing the 23,400 mark. → The signing of trade agreements between the US and Europe (and earlier, Japan) has eased concerns about the negative impact of tariff barriers. Technical Analysis of Nasdaq 100 The chart supports growing signs of optimism: earlier in July, the price remained within a rising channel (marked in blue). However, towards the end of the month, price action has begun to follow a steeper upward trajectory (marked in purple). What could happen next? Much will depend on the earnings results and forward guidance from these tech giants. On the one hand, continued enthusiasm around AI adoption could accelerate further growth. The stronger the optimism, the more fuel it may add to discussions around a potential bubble — with some analysts already drawing parallels to the dot-com era of the early 2000s. On the other hand, earnings could temper market excitement and prompt a correction. For example, the index may retreat to the support level around 23,020, which is reinforced by the lower boundary of the blue trend channel.
