The March CPI was reported at 3.5%, higher than expected on April 10. This development triggered a sharp decline in the stock market, with a total drop of 8.5% from the recent high. Could this downward movement signal the onset of a major bear market, or is this sell-off simply a retracement, setting the stage for the bull market to resume? We will explore this...

Looking at NQ futures chart, we seem to be in a clean bear flag. If at the time of FOMC announcement and J. Powell talking (2-3pm est), if the market is relatively at the bottom of the channel, I'd be looking for the Bear Flag follow through. The risk/reward on this pretty huge considering the trade accounts for a 400 point drop if it plays out as the charts show...
this is a trade i took today. I'm testing out the publishing tool on Tradingview.
I think MNQ will have a retracement at the beginning of the week to the zone I marked up between monday and tuesday and after that it could be mainly bullish for the rest of the week until hits the upper zone around 18100
Since price didn't close above the mid-point of the consolidation zone & an 8H inverted hammer formed at market close, I am looking for price to run bearish at market open and then continue back bullish at some point. Personally I'm not looking for full sells OR actual bearish structure until around 17476 where the current lows in price are at. **This is for...
Bearish on NQ. PDAs as identified. Trying not to spend too much time predicting the narrative at the beginning of the week, however price is likely to interact with these zones.
Oddly, we got the dump with no pump today. MFI is oversold but RSI is not. ES and RTY are not oversold on any indicator. On top of that, my favorite stock, PCAR, took a complete crap on earnings, lol. Gonna wait until tomorrow for a long position. Made a little money with puts today, but I'm just playing with small positions. More room for downside, but...
Bearish SMT at the highs indicating that there is a higher probability for a short term retracement if price stays heavy

NQ should retest 0.382 fib level (16966) in coming days/weeks.
We think that the high of Tuesday, April 16th, is the next draw on liquidity for NQM2024. Hence we hold a bullish weekly bias for now. However we have FOMC and NFP this week. So we expect lots of manipulation and are primarily looking to scalp intraday. This is no financial advise! Do not risk real money on any idea published by us.

Similar to ES, NQ has been relatively choppy throughout the last trading week with liquidity voids popping up in the daily timeframe from Tuesday going into Wednesday, Wednesday going into Thursday and Thursday going into Friday with even a bit of a void in Mondays opening compared to Fridays Close. In relation to running buystops, NQ has not dealt that much...
Good Morning Traders, NQ looks primed for higher. if they push it over 14,200 and holds 13,750 range continuation to 1500 probable
The White arrows to the right side are KL's. 18700 YTD High, 17027 YTD Open and 16300 YTD Low. The white dash is Mid Level of YTD Range. 4/1 Post, we have hit lower target and my see some retracement back up, not looking for a KL 18590 retest. Use Yellow dots as targets for next move. Yellow diagonal TL is next retest and TLX 17867, may see sideways with slight...
Key Developments: The E-Mini Nasdaq 100 futures contract has had a rough month in April. Some of this correction was due to fears surrounding higher interest rates and persistent inflationary pressures. However, we believe most of the weakness had to do with other technology stocks that had reported earnings prior to META, GOOG, and MSFT. ASML, a semiconductor...
