NASDAQ 100 (NQ1!): Bullish! Wait For The Pullback, Then Buy ItWelcome back to the Weekly Forex Forecast for the week of Sept 22 - 26th.
In this video, we will analyze the following FX market: NASDAQ (NQ1!) NAS100
The NASDAQ is bullish. Let the market pullback to the +FVG (Internal Range Liquidity) a +FVG, and look for valid long setups on the lower timeframes.
Should the -FVG fail, then wait until it moves to a lower +FVG that will act as support. I do not recommend shorting this market until there is a clear bearish BOS.
Enjoy!
May profits be upon you.

Nasdaq Pulls Back After Friday’s Rally: Identifying Demand ZoneYesterday, the Nasdaq underwent a pullback following a robust bullish surge on Friday. During this correction, a fresh Daily Demand Zone emerged on the chart, signaling potential support levels. Traders are now eyeing this area as an opportunity to position for a possible new high, should the market retrace further today. The current outlook favors a long setup, with anticipation of a continued upward move contingent on the price respecting the identified demand zone.

Precise Plan & ContextBeautiful chart. How to interpret it? How to trade it? How to manage risk?
One must have a precise plan, contextually interpret the charts and manage risk.
Precise Plan
1.Buy the Breakouts
2.Buy the Dips
3.Buy the Pivots
Buy the Breakouts
1.Wait for a bounce
2.Set a buy to open (bto) stop market order above the bounce
3.Enter a sell to close (stc) limit order
Buy the Dips
1.Wait for a bounce
2.Set a bto limit order less than the close of the bounce
3.When it fills set a stc limit order
Buy the Pivots
1.Find a strong Support
2.Set a bto limit order
3.When it fxs set a stc limit order
More Details
My Breakouts
1.I always stack them to the ceiling.
2.Most of the time I place a bto stop mkt order every 5 points.
3.For each entry I set a 19-point target.
NOTE: You must tailor this to your risk tolerance and to your account size.
NOTE: I do not place a stop loss. I manage risk by always keeping a close eye on Intraday Margin and Initial Margin. These are all-important. This cannot be over emphasized.
NOTE: Another way I manage risk is by not overlapping my trades. For example, if my margin requirements need some breathing room, I will not enter another trade until the prior trade has fxed its target.
My Buy the Dips
1.I usually wait for a bounce.
2.I buy them in descending 5-point intervals
3.19-point target for each trade
NOTE: Often, even a good bounce fails and the px goes lower. Always plan for this. Always.
NOTE: I always have accumulation/distribution areas clearly visible on my charts. This is where buyers and sellers have met in the past. Maybe they will meet here again.
NOTE: My goal is to have 5 a day. Here is the math with my broker: 5 trades x 5 days x 36.18 P x 50 weeks = $45,225.00. I am way ahead of that goal.
NOTE: Past performance is not indicative of future performance.
My Pivots
1.Look for a strong pivot.
2.I always aim to get a 101-point target.
Context is extremely important.
1.Learn how to interpret a chart. I assume most of you have learned the basics. If you haven't Jerremy Alexander Newsome has many great videos on YouTube. He also has much info on his website, reallifetrading.com. Investopedia is another great resource.
2.News is vital. News moves markets. Look at Liberation Day, 4/2/25. Look at June 13th, the day Israel bombed Iran. The jobs report comes out every first Friday of the month. Earnings reports matter. FOMC day, PCE, inflation data etc. etc. etc... I always look at MarketWatch's U.S. economic calendar. It's free and an invaluable resource. Find a reliable economic news source. I always have Fox Business on. They have great hosts and great guests. You will get a great economics education. Maria Bartiromo comes on at 06:00:00 NY time and she sets the day for any important events you should know.
3.We are in an historical bull market marking the early days of The Fourth Industrial Revolution - that of AI & Robotics.
I'm probably forgetting somethings right now. I will add them as I think of them. Here is one now - most of the time I am looking at a 5-minute chart. Here's another - I use Session Volume Profile charts daily. Each session (trading day) will have a point of control (poc). Buyers and sellers meet here. Sometimes a poc will not be touched by the next session's candles. It then becomes a virgin point of control (vpoc) and its significance becomes greater.
Until now, I have included many entries, many results and much math. I wanted you to get a feel for these things. They are the essence of trading. Perhaps going forward I won't post these, at least not so often.
I fear that I have been ham-handed in my posts - like a machine gun laying down rapid, unaimed firepower. I think this post best describes my trading plan and my thoughts on how important context is to trading. Context is far more comprehensive than just a chart, not to minimize the importance of charts. A chart, I suppose, could be pictured as a ship and context is the sea upon which that ship sails.
I hope this helps you have a Precise Trading Plan suitable to your singular needs, and that you see how vital and comprehensive Context is.
Nasdaq Echoing December FOMC| NQ1 Short SetupAfter spotting the new day opening gap, I immediately analyzed the charts for a comparable All-Time High NDOG scenario. Sure enough, I found nearly identical price action — unfolding on the same days and with the exact same news catalysts.
I’m planning to short from around 24,600.00, with the expectation that 24,200.00 will get taken out.
Let's see how this plays out⚡
long NQYep, i hope i didnt miss that trade at the first touch of the black box.
Anyways, dont chase that long, it does looks very solid setup, just wait for the price to touch this black box again (only if it happened), check the RSI if its oversold on 5 min tf, if so enter and stick to the SL regardless of the outcome.
Just hopefully the announced news by trump would not affect this setup.
Day Trading a 50k AccountThree Trade Plans
1.Breakouts
2.Dips
3.Pivots
Context
1.historical bull market - the early days of The Fourth Industrial Revolution, that of AI and Robotics. Many millionaires and billionaires will be newly minted.
2.a great deal of news happened yesterday that the markets are still digesting.
3.new home sales come out @ 10:00
4.much possible market moving news comes out tomorrow (see MarketWatch U.S. Economic Calendar)
5.PCE is out 9/26 08:30. It is possible the markets will hang out waiting for that news. Watch that one carefully.
Action
1.Breakout orders are in place, stacked to the ceiling
2.Dips will be placed if we get a good bounce
3.Pivots: I have three in place, 24807, 24777, 24597.I won't place the 24807 order until our Pivot from 9/23 hits its target.
NQ. Decision point Yep, thats a classic H&S.
Soon enough one of two things will happen.
Either bulls defend this yellow area, especially if they are in with size at the top. or bears will take over.
So far iam not biased to short, but waiting for confirmation.
Also watch out, because sometimes whales just push the price down to convince everyone that they are selling, then push the price upwards.
Super Bear on NQ for week 22/10 - 03/11 2025This week will show if the bears are gonna step in! A lot of positivity in the markets due to rate cuts but I'm not buying it. Sell the news will be on. Predicting NQ back to 24000 till end of the month. Bearish setup only for the rest of the month.
Always remember, Caution, Patience and Risk!

day 3 100 to 1,000,000 Romans 6: 23 for the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of gods grace is eternal life though Jesus Christ. 5m ifvg to the downside, I waited for the pullback proceeded to the one minute chart. Marked all respected gaps then waited for my entry at c.e. of 1:59 gap, I placed my stop just above the gap and t.p. at the 2:21 low.
NASDAQ – BIAS LONG📈 Breakout & Acceptance confirmed.
We could see some retracement, but Powell’s speech already tested our demand and the reaction was strong.
For the bias to shift into short, we would need a clear violation of the dealing range low — not just a demand violation.
Until then, structure remains bullish.

Dovish Spells or Hawkish Surprises? FOMC Prep for ES, NQ, GCLet’s start with the biggest event this week. Unless, of course, some unexpected headline swoops in and steals the spotlight — because markets love a good plot twist.
Emotions are running high, and volatility is flying around like confetti at a surprise party nobody asked for. But don’t worry, Chair Powell might just play the role of the calm voice in the chaos.
Markets are pricing in a 25 bps rate cut by the Fed this week. Interestingly, the future path of rate cut expectations has been in the doldrums. Is it a bird or a plane? No, it’s Superman. Likewise here, is it 1 cut or 2 cuts? No, it’s 3 cuts priced at this moment until the end of 2025.
Excuse the humor, but what fun is it if you cannot entertain yourself while analyzing the complexities of markets day in and day out. Execution is boring; risk management is much like dementors sucking out life force when risk is not respected. And analyzing and preparation is where the creativity and fun is.
And as Kurt Angle would say, it is “ True ”.
Index futures including ES futures and NQ futures have all climbed steadily higher since September 2 low. Markets are turning higher in anticipation of a new bull run.
Gold futures are rallying, currently trading above $3700. Since the Jackson Hole dovish pivot, gold has not looked back and has rocketed higher above major resistance.
Our focus is on the Fed meeting. All eyes will be on the forward guidance; risks to inflation, risks for the labor market and FED’s SEP (Summary of Economic Projections). This also includes GDP forecasts and the most anticipated Dot Plot.
Which of the two mandates will the Fed prioritize, labor market weakness or sticky inflation? The interesting thing to note is that despite sticky inflation, markets are anticipating 3 cuts of 25 bps for each of the meetings this year.
Thus far, as we have previously mentioned, the Fed will likely be moving away from their 2% inflation target to an average inflation target in the range of 2% to 3%.
This also implies that real rates i.e., nominal less inflation are going to fall sharply lower.
Given this, we anticipate gold to continue higher as the US Dollar's purchasing power erodes away, with mounting debt, higher inflation and falling real yields.
The real question we should be asking is:
What if the meeting outcome is hawkish with the Fed delivering just 1 cut in the September meeting and staying on hold for the remainder of the year?
What other risks are there that could pull stocks and indexes lower? And bonds higher?
Tariffs at this point seem like an old talk unless something reinvigorates and puts them on the front and center of market worries.
Based on these thoughts, here are our scenarios:
Base Case:
25 bps cuts and dovish guidance but iterates meeting by meeting approach.
ES & NQ:
Data dependent Fed, that is likely behind the curve and markets may translate this as Fed too slow to react to emerging risks, risks of recession goes higher. In this case, although stocks may push higher with rates coming down initially, in our view, much of this is priced in and this may be ‘sell the fact moment’.
Portfolio adjustment: Sell index futures, Buy Gold and Bonds.
Ultra-Dovish:
Fed’s dot plot confirms 2 additional rate cuts of 25 bps for Oct and Dec meeting and further 4 cuts till end of 2026 to bring terminal rate lower to 250-275.
USD weakens further, real rates sink, reinforcing gold bid.
Portfolio adjustment: Buy everything. Buy the dip.
Hawkish Surprise
Only 25 bps in September, then pause
ES & NQ:
• Sharp pullback as equities reprice for tighter liquidity.
• ES could retrace recent gains, downside risk toward 4,900–5,000 zone.
• NQ likely hit harder due to tech sensitivity to discount rate.
GC:
• Short-term correction as USD firms and yields spike.
• However, downside may be limited if market shifts focus back to debt & long-term inflation risks.
Risk-Off External Shock- Geopolitical event, tariffs
ES & NQ:
• Drop as risk sentiment sours; defensives outperform growth.
• Bonds rally, yields fall, curve steepens if Fed cut expectations accelerate.
GC:
• Strong safe-haven bid, spikes higher regardless of Fed stance.
