🔹 Second entry: 23,397 – 23,450
🎯 Target levels:
TP1: 22,800

Every single like from you is my biggest source of motivation to keep sharing these analyses. Huge thanks to everyone who supports with a like! 🙏
Market will crash in August 2025, some gurus said !There are no lack of experts and gurus coming out to say the market will crash because of blah blah blah.......Take it with a pinch of salt and it is more important to base your decisions from your own research.
Of course, if you are heavily concentrated in one geographical region say US market or sector eg IT/AI/COMs etc then you might want to rebalance your portfolio a bit. However, if you know what you are doing or have domain knowledge , then stick to it.
Assuming these gurus are right, the market is going on a RISK off mode, ie, going to CRASH, then safe haven assets like GOLD, SILVER should rightfully be bullish.
In that case, let's monitor this chart and see how the market behaves in this month. It will be exciting !
US indices paused as fragile macro data undermined recent gains
US equity gains paused amid President Trump’s renewed tariff threats and weakening economic data. Trump warned of steep tariff hikes on India and a potential 35% levy on the EU if obligations are not met. Meanwhile, the US July Services PMI fell from 50.8 to 50.1, missing the 51.5 consensus. New orders dropped to 50.3, while employment declined to 46.4—the lowest since March.
USTEC briefly tested 23300 before breaking below both EMAs. The widening gap between EMA21 and EMA78 suggests a potential shift toward bearish momentum. If USTEC fails to break above the resistance at 23300, the index could decline further toward 22700. Conversely, if USTEC breaks above both EMAs and 23300, the index may gain bullish traction toward 23700.

Nasdaq 100 Analysis: Index Rebounds After Friday’s DeclineNasdaq 100 Analysis: Index Rebounds After Friday’s Decline
The release of disappointing US labour market data on Friday unsettled both stock market participants and the President of the United States:
→ Donald Trump promptly dismissed Erica McEntarfer, Commissioner of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, accusing her of falsifying employment data.
→ Stock indices accelerated their decline, with the Nasdaq 100 Index falling below its 16 June low.
However, US stock indices staged a strong recovery on Monday. According to Reuters, yesterday marked the largest daily percentage gain since 27 May.
Why Did Stock Indices Rise?
Possible reasons include:
→ Buyers were attracted by the falling share prices of companies that, for the most part, had delivered strong quarterly earnings;
→ Market participants are betting on a potential rate cut by the Federal Reserve in September (a move strongly advocated by Trump), which could support both the economy and the stock market.
Technical Analysis of the Nasdaq 100 Chart
In our earlier analysis of the Nasdaq 100 Index, we:
→ Identified a primary ascending channel (marked in blue);
→ Highlighted that the price had risen above the upper boundary of the channel (a sign of excessive optimism);
→ Anticipated a potential correction towards the 23,020 level.
However, the correction turned out to be more substantial than initially expected.
As a result of the price movements on Friday and Monday:
→ The blue channel was widened twofold;
→ The price found support at its new lower boundary and reversed upwards;
→ As of today, the Nasdaq 100 index is trading near the median line.
This can be interpreted as the market aggressively digesting recent corporate earnings reports and the prospects of a rate cut in light of a deteriorating labour market. Demand and supply may reach a new equilibrium, potentially leading to a consolidation phase around the median of the widened channel.
It is also possible that the area marked in orange—where the price previously rallied strongly, indicating a buyer-driven imbalance—may now act as support. Resistance levels might include:
→ Former support at 23,320;
→ 23,440 – the level at which bears broke through the purple channel.

Nasdaq and S&P500 Short: A multi-factor analysisIn this long video, I go through why I think the equity markets are going to crash in August.
Here are the important points:
1. I talk about the stealth liquidity which is the reverse repo balance being drawn down and almost emptied.
2. The risk-off asset classes rising: Gold, Japanese Yen.
3. The risk-on asset classes falling: Nasdaq, Bitcoin, Ethereum.
Here's my outlook for the markets from now till September FOMC:
1. The equity markets, USDJPY, Bitcoin, and Ethereum will crash.
2. 3-month treasury yield will fall below 4.25% and even below 4%.
3. Fed will cut target rates to be within the 3-month treasury yield.
As usual, good luck in your trading and keep your risks tight!
NAS100 – Supply Zone Rejection Trade IdeaPrice has entered a strong supply zone (highlighted in blue), where previous selling pressure originated. A sharp move up has now slowed within this zone, potentially signaling a distribution phase or exhaustion of bullish momentum.
🔰 Key Levels:
🟦 Supply Zone: 23,170 – 23,260
🔵 Mid Support: 22,995.13 (Potential retracement level)
🟧 Demand Zone: 22,680 – 22,750
🔽 Red arrows indicate potential downside targets.
🧠 Smart Money Perspective:
Price has filled the Fair Value Gap (FVG) and tapped into a low-volume node on the visible range volume profile.
Signs of liquidity sweep and exhaustion within the supply zone.
Possible short setup forming if price confirms a Change of Character (CHOCH) on LTF (e.g., break of short-term bullish structure).
💡 Trade Idea:
Short Entry: On confirmation inside supply zone
SL: Above 23,260
TP1: 22,995 (reaction level)
TP2: 22,737 (major demand zone)
Watch for a reaction at the 22,995 level; if price slices through, the next destination may be the orange demand block.

NASDAQ Week 32 OutlookOn the US Nas 100 1-hour chart, a bearish breakout from a symmetrical triangle suggests downward momentum. The Fair Value Gap at 23,500.0 is a pivotal level—watch for a breakout and retest here to confirm sell entries. Aim for the target at 22681.1, with a stop-loss at 23,740.4 to protect against adverse moves.
Nasdaq h4✅ NASDAQ H4 – Premium Short Setup
📊 What we are looking at:
✔️ H4 FVG (Fair Value Gap)
✔️ H4 Order Block (OB)
✔️ H4 CRT (Candle Range Theory)
✔️ Trendline Liquidity already taken out
📌 Game Plan:
Price swept trendline liquidity and is now pushing towards H4 FVG.
As soon as it retests the FVG and taps into OB & CRT zone, we’ll look for SELL opportunities from this premium area.
🎯 Target: Next liquidity pool below.
⚠️ Patience = Profit. Wait for confirmation before entry.

US100 Price Action InsightUS100 Price Action Insight
In recent analysis, we’ve seen the US100 drop multiple times last month by around 3.5% to 4%, but each time it quickly bounced back, showing that these moves were simply buying opportunities during deep pullbacks.
This time, the index fell by about 4.3% due to fears over new tariffs on August 1st, but it's already recovering, which suggests that the bullish trend remains intact.
If momentum continues, US100 could retest the highs near 23,680, and potentially break above to 24,000 or even 24,500.

Thank you and Good Luck!

NAS100 - IMPORTANT UPDATEDear Friends in Trading,
How I see it,
Investors imposed a very strong recovery attempt.
Daily tweezer close.
As it stands, potential for a "BEARISH" sentiment is wavering.
1) Will price come all the way back to main demand for a second leg?
2) Will price only retrace back into discount for a higher right foot?
Keynote:
Investors show confidence/hopeful for a near term rate cut...
I sincerely hope my point of view offers a valued insight
Thank you for taking the time study my analysis.
NAS100 Trade Idea: Liquidity Sweep & Bullish Reversal Potential📊 NASDAQ 100 (NAS100) Trade Outlook 📈
The NASDAQ 100 is holding a strong bullish trend on the higher timeframes 🟢. However, we’re currently seeing a notable pullback into a key support zone ⚠️ — price has dipped beneath previous lows, tapping into what appears to be an institutional accumulation range 🏦.
This move is likely targeting the liquidity resting below those lows 💧, where sell stops are positioned. Price is also reacting off a significant bullish order block 🧱 — a confluence area that could produce a strong reversal.
🎯 What to look for next:
Wait for a bullish break in market structure 🔁 to confirm a potential entry. If that occurs, consider a long setup with your stop loss below the swing low 🛑 and a 1:2 risk-to-reward target 🎯.
