DOW JONES 4H BUY SIGNAL
DJI bouncing on the Channel Up bottom + oversold 4H RSI (first since Aug 04) ✅.
Every dip under the 4H MA50 has been the best entry — same setup now.
As long as the 1D MA50 holds, trend stays bullish 📈.
🎯 Short-term target: 46,100 (+2.67%)
Kaizo precision. Sniper buy zone activated. 🥷🔥
Dow Jones Falls from Record HighsOver the past two trading sessions, the Dow Jones index has declined by just over 0.7%, with selling pressure remaining constant. This move has been tied to the rebound in U.S. 10-year Treasury yields, which climbed to 4.27%, reducing the short-term appeal of equities. In addition, investors are awaiting the release of U.S. employment data at the end of the week, as the results could influence the Federal Reserve’s upcoming policy decisions.
Uptrend Remains Intact
Despite the recent pullback, the short-term declines have not been strong enough to break the uptrend that has remained in place for the past several months. This technical structure continues to be the most relevant in the short term. Unless selling pressure consolidates over more sessions, the upward trend is likely to remain dominant in the coming days.
Technical Indicators
RSI: although the RSI remains above the 50 level, it has begun to show a downward slope in the short term, which could indicate a shift in market momentum. If the line continues to decline, selling pressure could become more relevant in the sessions ahead.
MACD: the MACD histogram continues to hover around the 0 line, indicating that the average strength of the moving averages remains in neutral territory. This highlights the lack of clear direction in the short term.
Key Levels to Watch:
45,746 points – Relevant Resistance: corresponds to the Dow Jones record highs. A sustained breakout above this level could pave the way for a continuation of the uptrend.
45,023 points – Near-Term Support: coincides with recent lows and may act as a barrier for potential short-term pullbacks.
43,098 points – Critical Support: aligns with the 100- and 200-period simple moving averages. A move down to this zone could confirm a break in the uptrend and give way to a dominant bearish bias.

US30 Bounce at Channel Support, Bullish Rejection in PlayUS30 is respecting the ascending channel support on the 4H chart, showing a clean bullish rejection wick after tapping the lower trendline.
Technical Highlights:

Key Levels:
Support: 45,000 – 45,200
Resistance: 45,800 – 46,200
Bias:
🟢 Bullish — As long as the 45,000 level holds, expect a retest of the upper channel boundary.
Trade Plan:
Entry: Off the channel support zone near 45,200
Target: 45,950 – 46,200
Invalidation: Break and close below 44,850
Sentiment:
Momentum favors continuation to the upside unless structure breaks below the trendline.
US30: The Market Is Looking Up! Long!
My dear friends,
Today we will analyse US30 together☺️
The in-trend continuation seems likely as the current long-term trend appears to be strong, and price is holding above a key level of 45,087.69 So a bullish continuation seems plausible, targeting the next high. We should enter on confirmation, and place a stop-loss beyond the recent swing level.
❤️Sending you lots of Love and Hugs❤️

US30 Technical Analysis Report - Dow Jones Industrial Average# US30 Technical Analysis: Dow Jones Industrial Average Comprehensive Multi-Timeframe Trading Strategy
Executive Summary
Current Price: 45,572.6 (August 30, 2025, 12:54 AM UTC+4)
Market Sentiment: Cautiously Bullish with Fed Policy Tailwinds
Primary Trend: Strong Uptrend with Consolidation Characteristics
Key Catalyst: Powell's Jackson Hole Speech Signaling Potential September Rate Cuts
The Dow Jones Industrial Average continues to exhibit remarkable strength, trading near all-time highs following Fed Chair Jerome Powell's dovish pivot at Jackson Hole. The index benefits from renewed optimism around rate cuts while maintaining its traditional value-oriented composition that typically outperforms during monetary easing cycles.
Market Context & Fundamental Backdrop
Federal Reserve Policy Landscape
Fed Chair Powell's Jackson Hole speech marked a significant shift in policy stance, with Powell indicating that conditions "may warrant" interest rate cuts. The Fed's dual mandate balance is shifting, with labor market risks now potentially outweighing inflation concerns. Markets are pricing in high probability of a September rate cut, with the current federal funds rate maintained at 4.25%-4.5%.
Economic Environment Assessment
The US economy has shown resilience despite policy uncertainties, though Powell warned of "unusual" labor market behavior that could become concerning. Recent inflation data has provided some reassurance to investors, with the consumer price index rising 2.7%, though tariff impacts remain a wildcard for future inflation trajectory.
Dow Jones Composition Dynamics
The Dow's 30 blue-chip constituents, including industrials, financials, and consumer staples, are well-positioned to benefit from lower interest rates. The index's price-weighted structure means high-priced stocks like Boeing, Goldman Sachs, and UnitedHealth Group carry significant influence on movements.
Recent Performance Context
The Dow has demonstrated exceptional strength, with recent sessions showing solid gains. The index reached fresh record highs during August, powered by strong performances from components like Home Depot. The index closed at 45,418.07 on August 26, showing consistent upward momentum throughout the month.

Conclusion and Strategic Outlook
The Dow Jones Industrial Average stands at a pivotal moment, benefiting from Fed Chair Powell's dovish pivot while trading at historically elevated levels. The index's composition of blue-chip, dividend-paying companies positions it well for a potential rate-cutting cycle, though elevated valuations require careful risk management.
Strategic Investment Themes:
1. Fed Policy Tailwind: Rate cutting cycle benefiting rate-sensitive components
2. Value vs Growth: Dow's value orientation may outperform in rate cut environment
3. Dividend Aristocrats: Quality dividend payers attractive in lower rate environment
4. Economic Resilience: Defensive characteristics providing downside protection
Trading Strategy Priorities:
Trend Following: Primary bias remains bullish with Fed support
Breakout Trading: Monitor 46,000 level for significant upside potential
Risk Management: Elevated levels require disciplined position sizing
Component Selection: Focus on rate-sensitive sectors for maximum benefit
Medium-Term Outlook (3-6 months):
Technical and fundamental analysis converges on a constructive outlook for the Dow through Q4 2025. The combination of Fed accommodation, resilient economic data, and strong corporate balance sheets supports advancement toward 47,000-48,000 targets, though any hawkish Fed surprises or geopolitical shocks could trigger corrections to 44,000-44,500 support.
Risk Management Focus:
Overbought Conditions: Monthly RSI above 74 suggests caution at higher levels
Policy Risk: Fed policy error or hawkish surprise major downside risk
Valuation Concerns: Historical high levels warrant selective positioning
Correlation Risk: High correlation with broader market during stress periods
Long-Term Strategic Considerations:
The secular bull market remains intact, supported by American economic dynamism and corporate innovation. However, demographic trends, debt levels, and policy uncertainty create longer-term challenges requiring ongoing assessment and strategy adjustment.
Traders and investors should maintain flexibility while capitalizing on the current favorable environment, with particular attention to the Fed policy trajectory and its impact on the interest rate-sensitive components that comprise significant portions of the Dow Jones Industrial Average.

Dow Jones Awaits PCE – Key Pivot at 45,430US30 – Overview
The Dow Jones remains highly sensitive to today’s PCE inflation release, which will provide key signals for the Federal Reserve’s upcoming rate decision. Market sentiment leans slightly bearish, but the direction will depend on the data outcome.
Technical Outlook:
If PCE prints above expectations, bearish momentum is likely to dominate, with downside targets at 45,285 → 45,110 → 44,950.
If PCE comes in softer, bullish momentum could resume, pushing price toward another ATH at 45,680, with extended resistance at 45,860.
Key Levels:
Pivot: 45,430
Support: 45,285 – 45,110 – 44,950
Resistance: 45,680 – 45,860
Bias: Neutral ahead of PCE, with directional breakout expected from the pivot zone.
US30: Will Go Up! Long!
My dear friends,
Today we will analyse US30 together☺️
The recent price action suggests a shift in mid-term momentum. A break above the current local range around 46,091.71 will confirm the new direction upwards with the target being the next key level of 46,272.39 and a reconvened placement of a stop-loss beyond the range.
❤️Sending you lots of Love and Hugs❤️
