Nasdaq Retest of Previous Highs - REPOST📈 NASDAQ Outlook
The NASDAQ has broken through its previous high, and now the key level to watch is whether price action confirms this zone as new support.
If buyers step in and hold this level, we could see a continuation to the upside—with momentum potentially driving us toward the downward trendline.
Patience is key here as we wait for confirmation before the next move.
NASDAQ – Is the Top Finally In?In my past two NAS analyses, I argued that the index was overstretched and vulnerable to a deep correction. Even the fact that from the April bottom to mid-August it surged nearly 50% should have raised big red flags — that kind of move rarely sustains without a meaningful pullback.
At this moment, the technical picture has shifted significantly. The index has broken two critical levels:
1. The ascending trendline drawn from the recent low.
2. The horizontal support defined by the previous all-time high.
Losing both of these supports in quick succession suggests the bullish momentum is fading and a top may already be in place.
If this scenario unfolds as expected, selling pressure could intensify in the coming sessions. My first downside target stands in the 22,700 zone, with further weakness possible if the correction develops into a broader risk-off cycle.

ARIASWAVE MARKET UPDATE - NASDAQ 400K - DOW 200K...In this major market update, I’m sharing fresh analysis that signals the beginning of a powerful new uptrend.
Years of excessive money printing have fueled what appears to be a massive incoming bull market—one that could surpass all previous trends in strength, thanks to the extraordinary liquidity injected into global markets.
We may be entering a modern-day “Roaring 20s 2.0,” but eventually, this cycle will run its course.
For now, the key is to capitalize on the opportunities ahead by making well-informed decisions.

Nasdaq Pulls Back from Recent HighsToward the end of the week, the Nasdaq index began to retreat, posting a decline of at least 1.5% in the short term, as a new bearish bias has started to emerge strongly, preventing the index from reaching the historical highs again. For now, the momentum driven by expectations of lower interest rates has begun to fade in recent sessions, while corrections in stocks such as Nvidia—which represent a significant share of the index’s market capitalization—have limited buying pressure heading into the week’s close. Given this backdrop, as the market awaits key economic data, such as the upcoming U.S. employment report on Friday, uncertainty and sideways movements may continue to dominate trading sessions in the near term.
Short-Term Sideways Range
The lack of clear direction in recent movements has led to the formation of a sideways range in the Nasdaq, currently defined by resistance at 23,800 points and support at 22,800 points. As long as price action remains within these levels, neutrality will likely remain the prevailing scenario in the short term.
Technical Indicators
RSI: the RSI line is oscillating near the neutral 50 level, reflecting a consistent balance between buying and selling pressure over the past 14 sessions. This suggests that the neutral bias has begun to dominate short-term movements in the index.
MACD: the MACD histogram also hovers close to the 0 line, showing that short-term moving averages maintain a neutral bias. As long as this condition holds, the current sideways range is likely to remain relevant in upcoming sessions.
Key Levels to Watch:
23,800 points – Main Resistance: corresponds to recent highs in the Nasdaq. A sustained breakout above this level could open the door to a more consistent bullish trend in the short term.
22,800 points – Near-Term Support: aligns with the Ichimoku cloud and stands as the most important barrier for containing short-term downward corrections.
22,200 points – Critical Support: coincides with neutral price areas observed on the chart in February of this year and is also converging with the 200-period moving average. If this level comes under consistent pressure, it could pave the way for a more dominant bearish bias.

Nasdaq-100 Wave Analysis – 28 August 2025- Nasdaq-100 reversed from support zone
- Likely to rise to resistance level 24000.00
Nasdaq-100 index recently reversed from the support zone between the strong support level 23000.00 (which has been reversing the price from the middle of July), lower daily Bollinger Band and the 38.2% Fibonacci correction of the upward impulse from June.
The upward reversal from this support zone created the daily Japanese candlesticks reversal pattern Hammer – which started the active impulse wave (iii).
Given the strong daily uptrend, Nasdaq-100 index can be expected to rise to the next resistance level 24000.00 (which stopped the earlier impulse wave i).
US100 – Breakout or a Classic Bull Trap?
The US100 (Nasdaq Index) has recently shown what looks like a breakout on the 4-hour timeframe after a phase of consolidation. On the surface, this can easily be perceived as a bullish continuation. However, a closer look reveals that the breakout might just be setting up for a classic bull trap.
I am currently positioned short on the index with a view that the current move could fail to sustain. The price has entered into my marked supply zone, an area where selling pressure historically outweighs demand. If this zone holds true to its nature, we can see a strong rejection from here.
• LTP (Last Traded Price): 23,690
• Supply Zone: Highlighted on chart
• Downside Target: Around 22,500
The broader structure still suggests that while short-term euphoria pulls prices higher, the underlying momentum may not support sustained gains. If the bulls lose control here, the downside could open up swiftly, validating this thesis.
I’ll be watching how price reacts in this zone closely. For now, I remain short-biased, anticipating a rejection and a move towards the 22,500 mark.
A Crucial Test Lies Ahead for the Nasdaq 100The Nasdaq 100 faces a major test over the remainder of this week, with Nvidia reporting results after the close on 27 August and the US PCE report due on the morning of 29 August. The index has struggled to regain its losses after peaking on 13 August, facing stiff resistance just below the 61.8% retracement level at 23,670. In addition, the 10- and 20-day moving averages have proved to be sticking points, with the index unable to break away from either.
Momentum, as measured by the relative strength index, has also turned lower, forming a series of lower highs. Furthermore, a bearish divergence has emerged, with the RSI making lower highs while the Nasdaq 100 registered higher highs from the end of July through to mid-August.
Looking more closely, we see that the Nasdaq 100 had a straight-line rally on 22 August, and such rallies can sometimes be treated in a similar fashion to gaps. As a result, it is entirely possible that the index could give back its recent gains and fall back to 23,210, especially if it continues to struggle to surpass resistance at 23,620.
A breakout above 23,620 would be a bullish development despite a number of bearish signals. It would suggest the potential for the index to rise to 23,800 and possibly back to the previous highs.
