NAS100 - Potential outcome this week.Dear Friends in Trading,
“I share only my perspective. In this industry, learning never ends, but progress comes when we learn from mistakes without repeating them.” - ANROC
1) Can trend hold?
2) I believe risk appetite is diminished due to unstable geopolitical tensions.
Keynote:
The potential for an IR cut this month is good - Is this good or bad for shares in Equities?
📈 Why a rate cut can be good for stocks:
Cheaper borrowing → Companies can finance expansion, buybacks, or refinance debt at lower costs, boosting profitability.
Encourages spending → Consumers borrow more cheaply (credit cards, mortgages, auto loans), which can lift company revenues.
Asset reallocation → Lower yields on bonds make stocks look more attractive, so investors may shift capital into equities.
Weaker dollar → Helps U.S. exporters because their goods become more competitive abroad.
📉 Why a rate cut can be bad for stocks:
Signal of economic weakness → Often, the Fed cuts rates when growth is slowing or risks are rising (recession fears, financial stress). Stocks may fall if investors focus on the reason for the cut.
Diminished confidence → If markets think the Fed is “behind the curve,” sentiment can worsen.
Sector differences → Financial stocks (banks, insurers) may get hurt because their net interest margins shrink.
I sincerely hope my point of view offers a valued insight.
Thank you for taking the time study my analysis.

NASDAQ If this trend-line holds, it targets 29500.Nasdaq (NDX) has it's long-term bullish trend intact as it has mainly held its 1W MA50 (blue trend-line) as its Support. If it manages to hold the 1W MA20 (red trend-line) also, then it can extend the uptrend for even longer as the similarities overall with the 2020 fractal are noticeable.
As you can see, the March - April 2025 correction in particular, is very similar with the March 2020 COVID crash. Both sharp declines (-25% and -30% respectively), found Support just before hitting the 1W MA200 (orange trend-line). The 2020 fractal managed to rebound and reached its 2.0 Fibonacci extension and even extended the uptrend to the 2.5 Fib, all while the 1W MA20 remained intact (1W candles closed above it).
Even their 1W RSI sequences are identical and even on the price action that preceded the Megaphones. As a result, we remain bullish long-term as long as the 1W MA20 holds, targeting 29500 (Fib 2.0 extension).

USD100 BULLISH CONTINUATION IDEA 📈 Bullish Continuation Idea
🔹 Technical Analysis
Trend Bias: All higher timeframes confirm a bullish continuation trend.
Key Structure: On the H4 timeframe, price formed a higher low (HL) at the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement, supporting the bullish bias.
Profit Target: First TP at the -27% Fibonacci extension (24,000 – 24,070 zone).
Liquidity Targets: Markets typically hunt liquidity (daily highs/lows, swing points, equal highs/lows). The prior swing high on the daily provides additional confluence for this target.
Lower Timeframe Structure: H1 shows bullish HH/HL structure. Price fully mitigated the recent H1 Fair Value Gap (FVG) and swept the recent data low, possibly offering a strong entry zone for continuation upwards.
🔹 Fundamental Analysis
While N100 often moves independently of news, key events can act as catalysts:
Wednesday 09/10/2025 – Core PPI (Low-Moderate Impact):
If PPI prints lower as expected, this should fuel bullish momentum.
No major rallies or crashes expected, but could provide continuation fuel.
Thursday 09/11/2025 – CPI Y/Y (High-Moderate Impact):
Historically, N100 reacts inversely to bullish CPI prints.
Based on past CPI releases (08/12/25, 07/15/25, 06/11/25, 02/12/24), expect a possible short-term dip before resuming the trend.
Best opportunities may come after NY open liquidity grabs.
⚠️ Risk Disclaimer
This is not financial advice – just my personal analysis. If we all knew exactly where the market was going, we’d all be millionaires. Trade cautiously and always prioritize risk management.
Happy Trading ❤️

NAS100 - Stock Market, Waiting for Inflation Index?!The index is above EMA200 and EMA50 on the one-hour timeframe and is in its long-term ascending channel. If the drawn upward trend line is maintained, we can expect Nasdaq to reach its previous ATH. In case of its valid breakdown, its downward path will be smoothed to the specified demand zone, where it can be bought with appropriate risk-reward.
U.S. equities closed lower on Friday after a volatile session, capping off a turbulent week in negative territory. Initially, weaker-than-expected employment data fueled optimism that the Federal Reserve would move toward further rate cuts. However, growing fears of an economic recession quickly overshadowed that optimism and pushed the indexes into the red.
Following the labor market report, expectations for a 25-basis-point rate cut at the Fed’s September meeting are now virtually certain. The main question, however, is how fast subsequent cuts might unfold. Some analysts have even floated the possibility of a surprise 50-basis-point cut on September 17. Fed Chair Jerome Powell, speaking at the Jackson Hole symposium, stressed that risks stemming from labor market weakness may now outweigh inflation risks—a factor that could justify a shift in the central bank’s policy approach.
Nick Timiraos, a prominent Wall Street Journal reporter closely tracking Fed policy, noted that the sharp slowdown in job growth over the summer has likely cemented the Fed’s decision to cut rates by 25 basis points in the upcoming meeting.
Still, he made no explicit mention of a 50-basis-point move. While markets have raised the probability of that scenario to 14%, Timiraos believes the main focus remains on a more moderate reduction. He also observed that the latest jobs report has deepened uncertainty over the pace and scope of cuts beyond September—a challenge that policymakers and markets will grapple with in the months ahead.
Barclays Bank now projects the Fed will lower rates three times in 2025—each time by 25 basis points in September, October, and December. This is an upward revision from its earlier forecast of just two cuts in September and December.
President Donald Trump once again lashed out at Fed policy in a post on his social media platform, writing: “Jerome Powell should have cut rates long ago. But as usual, he has acted too late.”
Meanwhile, mounting concerns over ballooning fiscal deficits—not only in the U.S. but also in countries like Japan, France, and the U.K.—have placed added pressure on long-dated bonds. The yield on the 30-year U.S. Treasury briefly climbed to a one-and-a-half-month high last week. At the same time, the Treasury Department plans to issue new three-year, ten-year, and thirty-year securities next week, an event that could further fuel volatility in the bond market.
The coming week will be light in terms of data volume, yet the few scheduled releases will carry significant weight as inflation once again takes center stage. On Wednesday, the Producer Price Index (PPI) for August will be published. Forecasts suggest both the headline and core readings will show sharp declines compared to July.
On Thursday, the European Central Bank (ECB) will hold its policy meeting, where markets currently expect the deposit rate to remain unchanged at 2.15%. Shortly afterward, traders will turn their attention to the U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) for August, along with weekly jobless claims data—closely monitored for signs of potential weakness in the U.S. labor market.
Finally, on Friday, the preliminary University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index will be released. This survey has been a particularly important gauge of inflation expectations this year, offering deeper insights into how U.S. households perceive price trends.
The PPI, which reflects changes in goods prices at the factory gate, often provides more forward-looking signals than the CPI. As shown in July’s data, any unexpected surge in August’s numbers could temper investors’ optimism about the pace of rate cuts. For now, the impact of tariffs on goods prices appears limited, while the Fed’s main concern remains the risk of renewed inflationary pressures in the services sector. According to the Cleveland Fed’s Nowcast model, headline inflation rose 0.1% in August to reach an annualized rate of 2.8%, while core inflation held steady at 3.1%.
Nas100: Trading Levels in FocusSupply Zones (Red)
23,853 - 23,873
A strong supply zone near recent highs. Sellers are expected to defend aggressively here, making it a potential rejection area. A confirmed breakout and retest, however, could open the path toward new highs.
23,742 – 23,759
This zone reflects last week’s high-volume rejection. Acts as an intraday decision area: sharp rejections can trigger short setups, while a clean break and hold above would strengthen bullish momentum.
Demand Zones (Green)
23,553 – 23,573
A fresh demand zone aligned with recent breakout structure. Buyers may attempt to defend here for continuation longs. If broken, the zone flips into resistance, adding downside pressure.
23,473 – 23,500
Well-tested support area with prior absorption. Strong bounce potential, but multiple retests increase the risk of a breakdown. A failure here would likely accelerate bearish momentum.
Overall Sentiment: Cautiously Bullish on Fragile Ground
At its core, the market is cautiously optimistic right now. Positive momentum from Big Tech and expectations of looser monetary policy are fueling short-term upside potential. At the same time, consolidation and uncertainty around macro data keep sentiment restrained. Momentum is present but it relies on breakout moves holding.
Key levels for us100we are facing an strong liquidity zone then we are not going to go against it even it give us the shake out. now, if it breakt the 23,745 and then it shakes out we can go to the 23900s but, in the case that it breaks 23635 and dont manage to reclaim the 23681 we can expect a fall but i dont see the fall that near. However lets see what tomorrow holds for us. Btw if it shakes out the 23748 we will cover once it reaches 23879 50 to 70% and then the rest we will see how we can add along the way.
NQ Weekly Analysis!FA Analysis:
1- We know that the FED opened the door for a rate cut in September (Next week). The FED gave priority to address Employment Mandate issue and considered the higher inflation data as one time shot.
2- Hence, the Inflation (the second FED mandate) the most relevant data this week with both PPI and CPI to validate the FED view of one time shot. Another higher inflation will destroy this narrative and the FED might revise the way forward.
The story is simple: Higher Inflation data will send NQ down and vice-versa for inline and softer inflation.
TA Analysis:
Weekly TF:
The weekly close expresses really the incertitude regarding the direction. No clear direction; both direction are open; all will depend on inflation data.
Daily TF:
The daily close was bearish. NFP data provided an inline inflation data but a very negative employment data. As mentioned, bad data data is bad for NQ and vice-versa.
From daily perspective, price might retest Friday high or just NFP low (magenta dotted line) and continue down towards TP1, TP2 and TP3 particularly if Inflation data comes strong.
H4 TF:
H4 provided a break down. Inline with daily analysis, the least resistance is that price continues down after a short retrace up.
GL Everyone!

WISH YOU ALL LUCK
QQQ Concentration RiskSince mid-2023, the gap has steadily widened - it doesn’t mean an immediate reversal, but it does mean QQQ is very top-heavy (the NDX/NDXE ratio tends to oscillate in bands; rather than, trend infinitely higher)
Strong NDX vs weak NDXE suggests a fragile rally
If mega-caps stumble, the whole index could pull back hard
However, if breadth improves (NDXE starts outperforming), that would strengthen the rally base
Current leadership concentration favors short-term bullish momentum (45%), but the rally is fragile, if mega-caps falter, the downside could open quickly (30%)
1. FAANG + NVDA/TSLA Leadership Persists
Ratio keeps rising (NDX > NDXE)
Leaders continue to attract flows (AI, cloud, semis).
QQQ pushes to new highs with narrower breadth
Rally vulnerable if just one or two leaders stumble (NVDA, AAPL, etc.)
+5–10% upside near term if momentum holds
2. Pause & Rotation (25%)
Ratio stalls near highs
Equal-weight (NDXE) starts to catch up
Breadth improves modestly, but QQQ as a whole chops sideways
QQQ consolidates in a 5%–7% band
3. Breadth Divergence Resolves Lower (30%)
Concentration risk unwinds
Leaders mean-revert (profit-taking, earnings disappointments)
NDX underperforms NDXE, ratio falls from highs
QQQ could correct −10% or more
The ratio at 2.88 is stretched relative to historical balance
A “reasonable” medium-term range would be closer to 2.3–2.5 (15% to 25% on percentage scale)
Implies QQQ pause/correction while NDXE holds steady or outperforms, or broadening participation (small/mid Nasdaq catching up)
NAS100 Bearish Reversal from Supply Zone – Short SetupThe NAS100 (1H chart) is trading within a channel structure marked by a rejection line (resistance) and a support line. Price recently broke below the EMA (70 & 200), showing bearish momentum.
Supply Zone (POI): 23,524 – 23,637, where price may retest before further decline (potential short entry zone).
Trend: Current momentum is bearish after rejection from channel resistance.
Support/Target: Main downside target is 22,979 – 22,905, aligning with previous swing low and Fibonacci extension area.
EMA Strategy: Price below both 70 & 200 EMA indicates bearish trend continuation.
Structure Break: Breakdown of channel support suggests sellers are in control.
📌 Trading Plan:
Entry (Sell Zone): 23,524 – 23,637 (POI Supply Zone)
Stop Loss: Above 23,640 (channel resistance)
Target: 22,979 – 22,905
Conclusion:
Market is in bearish structure. Wait for pullback to supply zone for a high-probability short entry, targeting the lower support zone.
US30 & NAS100 - Potential TargetsDear Friends in Trading,
How I see it for Monday & Tuesday: 8-9 Sept.
1) Potential Targets for US30
2) Potential Targets for NAS100
Keynote: BE SAFE!
Wednesday to Friday is stacked with High Impact Data.
I personally will be focusing on catching setups for this week before Wednesday.
I sincerely hope my point of view offers a valued insight.
Thank you for taking the time study my analysis.
Buy zone of Nas100If we start trading inside the triangle again, then there is a possibility sellers will step in the market and push the market lower to the buy zone area. The triangle pattern is a strong indication of sell - however, the overall market structure of Nas100 is bullish, therefore, I will not be taking sells if sellers do step in the market, I will still wait for buy entries.
If the market trades up, and breaks resistance, I will look for buy entries on smaller TF and continue with the bullish momentum.
