NASDAQ (NQ1!): Bullish! Buy The Pullbacks!Welcome back to the Weekly Forex Forecast for the week of Aug 11 - 15th.
In this video, we will analyze the following FX market:
NASDAQ (NQ1!) NAS100
The NASDAQ is strong and moving higher. No reason to look for sells.
Wall Street advanced on Friday, taking indexes closer to a strong weekly finish, after President Donald Trump's interim pick for a Federal Reserve governor post kept expectations alive for a dovish policy.
The structure is bullish, with supports for higher prices. Wait for a pullback to discount arrays and buy it!
Enjoy!
May profits be upon you.

MNQ SET TO MAKE MORE NEW HIGHS, BEWARE OF THE STRONG PULLBACKSWe are very likely to witness CME_MINI:MNQU2025 (and of course NQ) reaching for new highs in the not too distant future.
However it is wise to bare in mind that price having made a high in the previous week of may experience a deep retracement into an area of weekly price inefficiency:
This general area sits nicely above the lower end of the Premium-High of the current weekly Dealing Range (0.75 DRT).
It is also feasible to expect price to revisit the Equilibrium of the current weekly Dealing Range (0.5DRT) as depicted in the chart at a general area of over the next month or so before seeing sustainable new highs being achieved.
Lets keep a keen look out for the release of this week's economic reports (especially inflation related) that may help drive price lower in the short term before we see it achieve a season of further new highs.
Bullish consolidation for the week ahead ATH incoming📊 Market Structure
Relentless rally from June lows now pressing the All-Time High (23,846.25).
Structure remains bullish on higher timeframes — no major break in market structure.
Current advance is the third leg in the July–August push:
Leg 1: Weekly VAL → VAH rotation.
Leg 2: Pullback into FVG, breakout continuation.
Leg 3: Drive into ATH and projected reversal/consolidation zone.
🔍 Volume Profile Context
Weekly VAH: 23,564.50 — first key support on any pullback.
Weekly POC: 23,261.75 — deeper rotation target if VAH fails.
Weekly VAL: 23,113.00 — trend invalidation level.
Implication:
Acceptance above ATH = new value being built higher.
Failure at ATH + daily close below VAH = rotation back to POC.
🎯 Target Zones
Upside:
23,950–24,000 → thin volume pocket + psychological magnet.
24,250–24,300 → projected consolidation range top.
Downside:
23,564.50 (VAH) → breakout retest.
23,261.75 (POC) → main rotation target on failed breakout.
⚠️ Invalidation Triggers
Aggressive rejection from ATH with strong sell volume → short-term bear rotation.
Sustained acceptance above ATH → squeeze into 24,300 likely.
📰 Macro Catalysts This Week
Wed 8:30 AM EST — CPI: Main driver for breakout or reversal.
Thu 8:30 AM EST — Jobless Claims: Weak print = more cut bets, bullish for NQ.
All Week: China stimulus chatter & oil above $90 remain sentiment drivers.
🛠 Bias for the Week
Bullish above ATH, cautious in reversal zone.
Expect some consolidation above 23,846 before any expansion. CPI is the key trigger for direction — dovish print could send us straight into 24,300, hot print risks full rotation back to VAH.
💡 Plan:
Above ATH with acceptance = long bias into 23,950–24,300.
Failure at ATH with breakdown below VAH = short bias into POC.
What now for the NQThe chart shows the area i previously believed would contain a corrective move back to retrace the first impulse lower, that is off the table and the question is where is that turning point now.
September likely to get a rate cut, tariffs news having less impact and news about Powell needs to watched.
We have continued divergence and i think after a blow out top we will get a reasonable corrective move.
NQ Short Bias: Previous NWOG RejectionI missed today’s sell-off by 60 ticks, but price respected Monthly Open support and retraced back near intraday highs. That reaction reinforces my bias: I’m still anticipating the dump that will likely happen tomorrow.
Ideally, price completes the Double Top within the prior NWOG zone, then falls slightly before or exactly at NY Open for a clean downhill ride.
My entry will be at 23,685.00
Target will be around the low 23,300.00s
I feel like we can definitely fall further than my target, so I will have trailing Stop in place once price reaches my target.
Lets see how this goes⚡
Let's make this journey fun. Lets develop system/indicators!Looking for a guy(s) skilled in coding and development, python or pine script. Let's test strategies, I have learned how to trade for 10 years, I lack faith. Started as a student. On graduating, I found ICT and I continue. I think using systems to test strategies would help. So a quant, sort of, with coding knowledge. No compensation on offer, just two (or more) guys and girls working out a way to beat the system and pave a way for themselves. I am M(30). Reach out, lubof!
NQ Targets (08-04-25)Many calls did play out last week and looking for some targets to get tested this week. On 7/29 called the Yellow arrow (last week's called range), the white is this week's. NDX has some gaps to retest, YTD chart below and yellow arrows are the targets.
The 30M and 4HR charts are adjusted to match the NDX gaps.
Anyway, the Overnight will be used to redirect the NAZ back up after most drops, this is normal and just beware of the O/N Pump/Dump once the Reg Session starts. Washington Street will spin, Fire, Tweet and do whatever works to get NAZ back above the DZ 23,486. Just watch the Queen spiral out of control should it not. The two day drop erased 23 trading days and those buyers are now loosing money. Should it not come back, the buyers that did not sell (trapped) will sell and send this even lower. Games/tricks can not fix that.

🔍 Post-Trade Analysis
What went right?
Price instantly rejected the level it was at and reached target fairly quickly.
What could have been better?
Could have taken YM for a better setup instead.
Would I take this trade again? Yes. A+ setup but not A+++ due to it not being at a major level like the other indices were.
Nq & Es Key Levels & Scenarios 07-08-2025It’s clear that we’re currently operating within a premium zone of the range. The directional bias remains bullish, but I’m anticipating the potential for a short-term short setup around the 09:30 AM New York open, allowing for a retracement before continuation higher.
I will not look for long setups unless price trades back into a discount zone, or at the very least, rebalances toward the equilibrium (50% of the dealing range). If price continues to rally without offering such a pullback, I’m fully prepared to stay sidelined — discipline over FOMO.
Wishing everyone clean, high-probability setups today.

NQ heading back to weekly AVL🕵️ Chart Overview
• Instrument: MNQ1! (Micro Nasdaq Futures, continuous contract)
• Timeframe: 4H
• Method: Volume Profile + Price Action + Supply/Demand
⸻
🔷 Technical Commentary
Entry Zone
• Price Range: 23,463.25 – 23,608.25
• Context: Clearly marked supply zone formed after a strong rejection wick and drop, likely a mitigated order block or an area with resting sell orders.
• Price recently tapped into the bottom edge of this zone and is showing signs of reaction.
• You’re targeting this as an ideal short re-entry point on a retracement move.
Confluence Factors
• Volume Profile: High volume node (HVN) just below the entry zone, suggesting this area previously acted as fair value before price got rejected.
• Structure: Bearish internal structure shift after that strong swing high. Price created a lower high and lower low, supporting the short idea.
• Clean break & retest: You’ve waited for the pullback to a previous area of interest—textbook risk-efficient trading.
TP Area
• Target Range: ~22,800s zone
• Likely drawn from:
• Previous demand area
• Volume gap / low-volume node
• Strong bounce from this zone last time suggests it’s a key support.
• Gives a nice 2–2.5R setup, depending on your SL.
⸻
🧠 Trade Logic Summary
• Bias: Bearish
• Entry: Short within the 23,463.25 – 23,608.25 zone (watch for rejection wicks / internal breakdown on LTF).
• Confirmation: Price reaction or reversal pattern in the zone (e.g., bearish engulfing, LTF BOS).
• TP: 22,800 region (just above the previous demand zone)
• SL: Just above 23,608.25 to invalidate the idea.
⸻
✅ Strengths
• Clear market structure shift
• Volume Profile confirmation
• Defined RR with institutional-style entry
• Good use of supply zone logic (not chasing entries)
⸻
⚠️ Things to Monitor
• If price closes above 23,608, setup invalidates and you may be looking at a liquidity grab and continuation to 23,800+
• Watch for bullish absorption in your entry zone. That would be a red flag.
• NFP / FOMC or any other scheduled macro events? Check the calendar before execution.
