Aug 6th corrective phase, bullish trade setup The Nasdaq 100 is a tech-heavy index, highly sensitive to macroeconomic factors like interest rates, tech earnings, and market sentiment. On August 6, 2025, the market is likely influenced by:
• Monetary Policy: Recent Federal Reserve actions (rate cuts or pauses) could drive bullish momentum, as lower rates favor growth stocks in the Nasdaq.
• Economic Data: Employment, CPI, or tech sector earnings reports could impact volatility.
• Technical Levels: Fibonacci retracements, support/resistance, and trendlines are critical for intraday trading.
I entered Nasdaq above the 0.382 level (23,056.4), First target 23400 was reach at approximately 7pm PST the next targets are the 1.0 (23,700)

NAS100 - Higher Right FootDear Friends in Trading,
How I see it,
Outcome = "VERY STRONG BULLISH STRUCTURE"
Price retraced back into discount and formed a higher right foot.
Keynote:
1)This means if the current resistance area is breached decisively,
The potential for new HH's and/or new ATH's in this case is very high
2) If resistance offer multiple higher TF rejections the structure can fail.
In this case I feel it is the less likely outcome
I sincerely hope my point of view offers a valued insight
Thank you for taking the time study my analysis.
Behold the grand NAS100 short expeditionBehold the grand NAS100 short expedition, unleashed by my top-secret pyramidal formula (concealed in golden tombs and guarded by laser-eyed sphinxes):
Pharaoh’s Pivot Points
– We superimpose recent NAS100 peaks onto the Great Pyramid’s four secret chambers. When price breaches the “Upper Antechamber Zone” near 23,300, the ibis-headed guardian squawks—our signal to draw the short sword.
Oracular Sphinx Sentiment
– We feed Fed minutes hieroglyphs and mega-cap earnings scrolls into the Sphinx’s riddle engine. If the answer murmurs “overheating” or “tech fatigue,” it confirms our bearish quest.
Ra’s Wall-Street Candle Filter
– Only candles closing between 09:30–16:00 ET count as true “New York sun-blessed bars.” Any rogue moves in the witching hour? Mirage dust—ignored.
Anubis’ Volume Veil
– Volume spikes are weighed in pharaoh-ounces of pure gold. When daily turnover eclipses 30,000 pharaoh-ounces, the Underworld Flush ritual begins—time to tighten our longs… er, shorts.
Tomb-Run Trend Confirmation
– Trendlines aren’t drawn from ordinary swing highs; we connect the three sacred glyph-points carved into the sarcophagus walls. Once that “Tomb-Run Downtrend” appears, we descend into the dark.
Nasdaq 100: Institutional Move Toward 22,680 Unfolding📊 Nasdaq 100 Smart Money Breakdown
Current Price: 22,103
Target Price: 22,680
🔼 Upside Potential: +577 points
The market is currently positioned for a premium retracement move after a recent liquidity sweep below short-term equal lows, which likely triggered sell-side liquidity. This setup hints at Smart Money Accumulation, with institutions entering long positions at discount pricing.
We're now seeing:
✅ Break of Structure (BOS) to the Downside
✅ Internal liquidity sweep
✅ Price reacting from a discounted OB (Order Block)
✅ Potential drive toward the next liquidity pool sitting above the 22,680 level.
This move aligns with a bullish market structure shift, suggesting Smart Money is engineering price higher to target buy-side liquidity above recent highs.
🎯 Target: 22,680 – a key liquidity area where Smart Money may look to offload positions.
NSDQ100 Pre US Open Key Trading levelsTrade Policy & Tariff Risks:
Donald Trump escalated trade rhetoric, signaling higher tariffs on countries importing Russian energy, and previewing new tariffs on semiconductors and pharmaceuticals within days. This raises geopolitical and supply chain uncertainty—key risks for NSDQ 100 tech and healthcare stocks, particularly chipmakers, drug manufacturers, and firms exposed to global trade.
Swiss Tariff Dispute:
Swiss President Keller-Sutter is in Washington seeking to lower a newly imposed 39% tariff—highlighting the broader unpredictability of US trade actions, which could fuel market volatility and weigh on investor sentiment.
Ukraine Conflict & Sanctions Outlook:
As the US pushes toward an Aug. 8 deadline to resolve the Ukraine conflict, Trump's envoy is in Moscow. Potential Kremlin concessions (e.g., halting airstrikes) may reduce geopolitical risk premiums, especially for defense, energy, and global consumer tech firms.
Federal Reserve & Rate Policy:
With Fed Governor Kugler resigning, Trump is expected to name a replacement this week. His ongoing pressure on the Fed to cut rates adds policy uncertainty. This could support rate-sensitive NSDQ stocks in the near term, especially growth names in tech, if dovish expectations build.
Takeaway for NSDQ100 Traders:
Expect increased volatility around tariff news, Fed appointments, and geopolitical headlines. Traders should watch for:
Semiconductor stocks (e.g., NVDA, AMD, INTC) under pressure from tariff threats.
Big tech and biotech swings tied to pharma trade policy.
Potential relief rallies if Russia concessions materialize or Fed commentary turns dovish.

Market Gains on Fed Optimism – Will 23440 Be Reached?Wall Street Edges Up Amid Fed Rate Cut Optimism; Earnings in Focus
U.S. stock indices rose on Wednesday, supported by growing expectations of Federal Reserve rate cuts later this year. Investors are also closely monitoring a fresh wave of corporate earnings, which continues to influence sentiment.
Technical Outlook
The price is currently holding above the key pivot level at 23045.
As long as it remains above this level, bullish momentum is expected to continue toward 23180 and 23295.
A confirmed breakout above 23295 would likely extend the rally toward 23440.
⚠️ On the other hand, a 1H close below 23045 would shift momentum to bearish, targeting 22870 and possibly 22725.
🔹 Resistance Levels: 23180, 23295, 23440
🔹 Support Levels: 22870, 22725
Nasdaq Index Analysis (US100 / NASDAQ):The Nasdaq index saw a slight improvement with today’s market open and is currently trading near 23,000 USD. The short-term trend remains bearish.
1️⃣ A break and close below 22,960 USD may push the price toward 22,670 USD as an initial target.
📉 Holding below that level could open the path to 22,400 USD.
2️⃣ However, if strong buying momentum leads to a break above 23,160 USD and price holds, we could see a move toward 23,300 USD, followed by 23,600 USD.

Market will crash in August 2025, some gurus said !There are no lack of experts and gurus coming out to say the market will crash because of blah blah blah.......Take it with a pinch of salt and it is more important to base your decisions from your own research.
Of course, if you are heavily concentrated in one geographical region say US market or sector eg IT/AI/COMs etc then you might want to rebalance your portfolio a bit. However, if you know what you are doing or have domain knowledge , then stick to it.
Assuming these gurus are right, the market is going on a RISK off mode, ie, going to CRASH, then safe haven assets like GOLD, SILVER should rightfully be bullish.
In that case, let's monitor this chart and see how the market behaves in this month. It will be exciting !
US indices paused as fragile macro data undermined recent gains
US equity gains paused amid President Trump’s renewed tariff threats and weakening economic data. Trump warned of steep tariff hikes on India and a potential 35% levy on the EU if obligations are not met. Meanwhile, the US July Services PMI fell from 50.8 to 50.1, missing the 51.5 consensus. New orders dropped to 50.3, while employment declined to 46.4—the lowest since March.
USTEC briefly tested 23300 before breaking below both EMAs. The widening gap between EMA21 and EMA78 suggests a potential shift toward bearish momentum. If USTEC fails to break above the resistance at 23300, the index could decline further toward 22700. Conversely, if USTEC breaks above both EMAs and 23300, the index may gain bullish traction toward 23700.
