MNQ (NASDAQ Futures) – Bullish Setup Plan | 4H + 1H ConfluenceDescription / Analysis:
This is my structured outlook for MNQ (Micro E-mini Nasdaq-100 Futures) for the coming week.
4H Chart Outlook
The 4H trend remains in an uptrend (higher lows).
Price has reacted from a 4H supply zone and is now retracing lower.
Focus is on the overlap between 4H demand and 1H fair value gap as a potential bullish setup zone.
1H Chart Outlook
The 1H trend has shifted into a corrective move (downtrend after BOS).
A clean 1H fair value gap aligns with the 4H demand zone below current price.
Plan:
1.Wait for price to reach the 1H/4H overlap zone.
2.Look for 1H reversal confirmation before considering entry.
3.Refine entry on the 15M chart using BOS/CHOCH and retracement logic.
Trade Plan
1. Primary Setup (Bullish):
Entry: In the 4H + 1H demand/FVG overlap.
Confirmation: 1H reversal signs, refined on 5M.
Target: 1H FVG zone above (around 25,050–25,100).
2. Alternative Scenario:
If price first dips into the Major Bull Reversal Zone (24,600–24,700), wait for a 1H reversal before refining on 15M.
Confluence Rules Applied
4H context provides bias.
1H defines the reversal zone.
15M provides entry precision.
Structure: BOS → Retrace → POI → Entry.

NASDAQ – Short// [H1-M5]After the recent Change of Character (ChoCH) and breakdown into a lower low, the market has established a new dealing range and change of bias. When price action trades inside the premium retracement zone (62.5%–75%), where we identified two heavy negative delta clusters, suggesting aggressive sell-side interest, we have just to wait a trigger.
Internal Supply (H1): aligned with the 62.5%-75% retracement and negative delta.
External Supply (H1): positioned at the extreme premium retracement, acting as a structural resistance wall for the bearish bias.
Unless price achieves a clear breakout and acceptance above these zones, the bias remains bearish, with continuation favored in line with the newly established structure.
NQ 4H MSS and setting up for a potential 4H BOSWe’ve confirmed a 4H bearish market structure shift (MSS) and appear to be setting up for a bearish break of structure (BOS).
I’m watching for short setups on my entry timeframes — so far, the cleaner days have offered solid opportunities. I’m keeping my focus on scalps, as the market remains heavily news-driven, but I can’t shake the sense that a key event could trigger a liquidity sweep of the lows.
That said, this could just as easily be another classic NQ pullback before a strong recovery. I trade what’s in front of me, but this is my higher-timeframe perspective built from my lower timeframe analysis.
Time will tell…
A trade I could've took, but wanted YOU to take instead! Im 5 years in this trading game, I see the market so vividly now. I thank God for everything. Through the struggles, losses and wins. I can see me quitting my 9 to 5 very soon. This is to show you guys that i eat between the lines on the 1minute timeframe. I really do this. I might start going live , I'll think about it. It might be too much pressure.
Forty Years in the WildernessWe'll get to The Promised Land. Winnowing happens. It purges the chaff.
Of traders it is said that it ''shakes out weak hands.''
We know how to read charts, manage margin and we have four trading plans. We are the grain, the staff of life, that remains after the winnowing.
Familiarize yourselves with the four trading plans I have published. Practice them. Become proficient with them.
There is great potential in the chart you are viewing.
NQ1 - Liquidity Sweeps = Bearish WedgeNQ1
Nasdaq is printing layers of slightly higher highs which is somewhat printing a bearish wedge.
So we might get some dump action soon.
I took profit on my CFD position and may re-enter at support or when the chart improves.

SpitballingLet's say you buy 3 MNQs @ 24680. Every 20 points you buy 3 all the way up to 24940.
Every 19.5 points you sell three - i.e. you take profit off the table.
If my quick off the top of my head math is right you will have made about $1,450.02 profit, or thereabouts.
Now at 24939.50 you sell 1 MNQ and you continue with the above pattern buying 3 contracts every 20 points all the while taking profit off the table every 19.5 points.
Wait for a pullback of at least 200 points less than where you sold that 1 MNQ @ 24939.50. Make sure you get a good bounce. Buy back the one you sold. Start your ladder again - buying 3 MNQs every 20 points and taking profit every 19.5 points.
This is a bull market. One must trade accordingly.
It all comes down to a very hard word - commit.
I just looked up the dictionary meaning of the word commit. It says pledge or bind a person or an organization to a certain course or policy
