NAS100 4H🔹 Overall Outlook and Potential Price Movements
In the charts above, we have outlined the overall outlook and possible price movement paths.
As shown, each analysis highlights a key support or resistance zone near the current market price. The market’s reaction to these zones — whether a breakout or rejection — will likely determine the next direction of the price toward the specified levels.
⚠️ Important Note:
The purpose of these trading perspectives is to identify key upcoming price levels and assess potential market reactions. The provided analyses are not trading signals in any way.
✅ Recommendation for Use:
To make effective use of these analyses, it is advised to manually draw the marked zones on your chart. Then, on the 15-minute time frame, monitor the candlestick behavior and look for valid entry triggers before making any trading decisions.
Nas100 Trading ZonesZone 1 – Shallow Overhead Supply
This area has acted as resistance, but with limited data at all-time highs, its reliability is questionable. Sellers may step in here, yet it should be treated as a soft reference point rather than a strong supply zone. Any breakout could easily invalidate it.
Zone 2 – Fragile Support / Momentum Pivot
This level has shown price reactions, but lacks the characteristics of a strong buy zone. It’s better viewed as a short-term pivot area. If broken, it could attract further selling pressure, but traders should avoid relying on it as solid support.
Zone 3 – Yesterday’s Low / Liquidity Pocket
Yesterday’s low provides a natural liquidity zone where buyers may attempt to step in. Still, the strength of this level is limited. Reactions may be sharp but unstable, and a clean break lower could fuel further downside momentum.
The sharp pullback in the Nas100 yesterday looks to be driven by profit-taking after the Fed’s rate cut, combined with Powell’s cautious tone on inflation and growth. With the index trading at record highs, volatility was elevated and many traders used the news as an opportunity to lock in gains. For now, the move appears more like a healthy correction within an uptrend, but key support zones will need to hold to prevent a deeper reversal.
NasdaqToday's price action can tell us a lot about the trend and future movements. After the drop to 24200, an uptrend line formed and resistance at 24470. If this trend continues, we can expect a breakout of this resistance and the key 24500 level. After confirmation, the Nasdaq could reach its highs again. Remember that on the daily chart, we are still in a strong bullish trend. Happy trading!

Analysis based on Session Volume POC clusters and HVN methodology
Beyond the Chart - NAS100 Through Technicals & FundamentalsNAS100 has just completed its move into the Discount PD Array zone I highlighted yesterday. On the 1H timeframe, I pointed out the prevailing bearish trend and marked this area as a key target. Once price tapped the zone, sellers lost momentum and buyers stepped in, shifting market control.
Now we’re seeing an inverse Z formation, with a Fair Value Gap (FVG) and a Breaker Block (BB) cutting across the structure. If buyers step in again, as they did in the earlier PD Array, my upside target will be 24,580.
Nasdaq slipped as investors balanced Fed signalsThe Nasdaq 100 (-0.87%) fell as tech stocks weakened. Uncertainty around Nvidia’s $100bn OpenAI deal led the reversal after Monday’s gains.
Powell’s comments added to caution: he repeated that risks remain on both inflation and jobs, but also admitted to “meaningful weakness” in the labour market. This helped bonds rally, but not equities.
Extra pressure came from US government shutdown concerns, while gold hit a record high ($3,764/oz) as investors shifted to a defensive.
Tech momentum cooled, and the Nasdaq slipped as investors balanced Fed signals, policy risks, and stretched valuations.

US100 – Bearish Pressure Below 24,768 | Targeting 24,600US100 is showing downside momentum after rejecting the 24,768 zone.
Bears are pushing price lower, with immediate support seen at 24,700.
A clean break below this level could extend the move toward 24,600, which is my near-term target.
If buyers manage to defend 24,700, a short-term bounce is possible, but overall sentiment remains weak.
👉 Do you expect US100 to hit 24,600 this week, or will bulls defend the zone? Share your thoughts below.

Short Bias Analysis (1H Chart)
The market recently formed a Higher High (HH) followed by a Break of Structure (BOS) to the downside, suggesting a potential bearish shift. This move left behind multiple Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), now acting as supply zones.
Key Points
• Liquidity grab above the HH, followed by strong bearish momentum.
• Two FVGs aligning with short bias.
• Current retracement into inefficiencies offers a potential short entry.
• Downside targets: Discount PD Array and lower FVGs (24,480–24,440).
Trade Idea
• Entry Zone: 24,700–24,750 (upper FVG)
• Stop Loss (SL): Above 24,800 (invalidates bearish idea)
• Take Profit 1 (TP1): 24,560
• Take Profit 2 (TP2): 24,440
Risk management remains key 🔑 if price closes above the upper FVG/BB zone, short bias is invalidated.
NAS100 rising wedge breakdown short setup The NAS100 recently broke down from a rising wedge formation on the 1H chart, signaling potential bearish momentum. After failing to hold above 24,700, price rejected the upper channel and is now trading below the wedge support.
Here’s my thought process:
• Pattern: Rising wedge, a bearish reversal pattern.
• Rejection Zone: Price failed at 24,705 resistance, confirming sellers stepped in.
• Breakdown Confirmation: A clean break below wedge support increases bearish bias.
NAS100Scenario 1: If, after taking that liquidity, the price returns to 24,722.00, we could find a support area there from which the market may continue its upward move.
Scenario 2: If that previously mentioned zone doesn’t hold, the price could retrace back to the origin of the impulse, and then continue structurally without significantly compromising the underlying level (Flip Zone Box).
👉 In both cases, the targets remain those boxes above.
US NAS100Preferably suitable for scalping and accurate as long as you watch carefully the price action with the drawn areas.
