US100 Breaks All-Time High – Bullish Targets Ahead!This 4-hour chart of the US100 (Nasdaq) shows a strong bullish trend supported by multiple breakouts (BO) and break of structure (BOS) signals over the past few weeks. After retesting and bouncing from key buyer activation zones, the price has consistently broken through previous resistance levels. Most notably, the index has just broken above its previous all-time high around 23,976, signaling strong momentum and potential for further upside. The price is currently hovering near 24,089, with key short-term targets marked at: Target : $24,284 Target : $24,396 Target : $24,511 These targets align with the upper boundary of a rising parallel channel, suggesting the bulls are in control for now. The chart projects a continuation of this bullish move, with a stair-step rally expected if the current breakout holds. As long as the price stays above the breakout zone and respects the structure, the upside targets remain in play.

Recession “Announcements” vs. Reality — A Contrarian SignalMost traders anchor their sentiment to the official declarations of a recession. But here’s the catch: by the time policymakers and institutions announce “we are in a recession”, the contraction has almost always run its course. If you are waiting for an official announcement we are in a recession in order to get out, It will be too late. You will likely be selling to the smart money buying for the eventual rise. The game is rigged against the novice trader relying on generally available news. On the chart: The orange line marks the actual recession periods identified by economic data. The red background shading highlights when the recession was officially recognized and reported. Notice the lag: announcements consistently come after the worst is already behind us. Historically, these “recognition windows” line up closer with market bottoms than with tops. 👉 The key takeaway: When you hear that a recession has been declared, it’s often not a sell signal — it’s closer to a buy signal. By then, the market has already priced in the pain, and recovery is underway. This perspective flips conventional wisdom on its head: don’t fear the announcement — see it as confirmation that the worst is behind us. And do not wait for it to tell you we are going in to a recession, look at what the smart money is doing, what insiders are doing, what the banks are doing. Many thin that lower interest rates means a boost to business. But they are wrong. Banks will charge as much as they think the economy can sustain. If Interest rates are rising, they know that business will be doing better. Falling interest rates tells you the banks know they can not get away with charging more and the economy is tanking.

NSDQ100 volatility, triple-witching could exaggerate swings.Nasdaq 100 Trading Drivers Macro backdrop: US data came in strong: Jobless claims fell to 231k (vs. 240k exp; prior 264k). Continuing claims declined to 1.92m (vs. 1.95m exp). Philly Fed survey surged to 23.2 (vs. 1.7 exp), an 8-month high. This eased US slowdown fears and reinforced risk-on sentiment. Equities: Nasdaq +0.94% → new record high. Tech/semis led: Intel (+22.8%) strongest S&P performer after Nvidia’s $5bn investment and US gov’t stake news. Philadelphia Semiconductor Index +3.6%. Momentum broadened → Russell 2000 +2.5%, first record high since 2021. Rates: Treasuries sold off on strong data → 10yr yield +1.7bps to 4.11%, 30yr +3.4bps. Higher yields a potential headwind if sustained. Event risk: Trump–Xi call (9 a.m. ET): key for TikTok’s US future & broader trade tone. Risk of mixed headlines given tensions (China soybeans skip, Gaza criticism, Taiwan aid freeze). BoJ surprise: announced unwind of $4.2bn/year ETF holdings → dampened global risk tone. US triple-witching: options/futures expiries today → elevated intraday volatility likely. Nasdaq 100 Trading Takeaway Bullish momentum intact: record highs fueled by tech & semiconductor leadership. Short-term watchpoints: Trump–Xi headlines and BoJ shift may inject volatility; triple-witching could exaggerate swings. Key risk: rising US yields may cap upside if bond sell-off deepens. Bias: Still risk-on / buy dips near-term, but position sizing should account for headline-driven volatility today.

USNAS100 Braces for Fed Decision – Key Pivot at 24,300USNAS100 – Overview The Nasdaq is set for a highly volatile session as markets await the Federal Reserve’s rate decision later today. Traders widely expect a 25 bps cut, but a surprise 50 bps cut—though less likely—would signal stronger confidence in stable inflation and U.S. economic health, fueling a strong bullish rally. Even if the Fed delivers the expected 25 bps cut, the key market mover will be Chair Powell’s press conference and the updated dot plot, which could reshape expectations for future easing. Technical Outlook 📉 Bearish scenario While trading below 24,300, price shows potential for a pullback toward 24,115. A confirmed break below 24,115 would extend the bearish move toward 23,870 → 23,700. 📈 Bullish scenario Stabilization above 24,115 keeps the broader uptrend intact. A breakout above 24,300 would confirm bullish momentum, targeting 24,550 → 24,700 → 24,850. 📌 Market Context: 50 bps cut + dovish Powell → strong bullish breakout above 24,300 toward 24,550+. 25 bps cut + cautious guidance → moderate moves; price may remain range-bound or retest 24,115 before resuming higher. Hawkish tone → deeper correction toward 23,870 or lower.
