NQ Range (12/16/24)

ที่อัปเดต:
Changed the call to Range from Short (looking Short, still). I would buy into the long side if the gains did not primarily happen outside of the Reg Session. Seems light, rigged and soft. FOMO and chase during the no - low volume final weeks, probably my last weekly post of the year. This week: Long above 21,885 and Short below. Friday-Monday Rig Long has stalled and will resume on Monday with O/N Pump/Dump into the Open, that reaction is key for price action this week.
AI, B Coin, Go Fed, Mag 7 are all leveraged and extended. Let us/me see some power in the Reg Session and I will get on board to the LONG side. Will not based off up moves in the Overnight that fizzle out in the Reg Session.

200 point range today for break out move, 885-685. NAZ is up 100 points in the O/N and Monday 2nd half of F-M Long move may play out or we have another O/N Pump/Dump and the NAZ will drop back to retest 685. Nothing has changed with O/N being The BOSS and controlling the show. This should continue through Year End and 1st week of 2025.

12/17 Update, NQ1 is off so you need to view NQZ. I will use that for charts as all TL's and KL's are on. NAZ did retest the KL 22,035 and popped back up. That hit took off my shorts because it did not stay under KL. When scalping Short against the mega trend you need to take off trades at target hits and do not wait for the big move as it will not usually show up when you need it. Still looking SHORT and feel FED DAY will show a curve ball of pop/drop as the pop will create a great exit level for many that want out.

NAZ above 30% YTD return may show snap back move. Since January of 2022 (3 years ago) the NAZ has moved 33% or an average CAGR of 10%. An average of 10% will show a move to 20% or Zero % as an OK move and any move outside will/may retrace back to average. An average is a result of time and not quick peaks or valleys. Do not chase as many underlying stock inside the Index are well above their longer term averages, the stocks are the index.

The Danger Zone is clearly 21,885 and they will do everything to keep it above the zone. Just watch if it goes below and stays below. Above the DZ is Strong Long. Now you know why Thursday, Friday and Monday had the strange lift up. The F-M Long and Short on Tuesday did work out and has been the pattern for months. The O/N does have a new -7% limit down and the last (only) time the O/N has dropped big since 2020 the drop was erased intraday and was not even noticed. Expect to see some more lower O/N sessions by end of 1/25. 2020 had three 5% limit down sessions in the O/N, half of the 1 month drop in 3 days. The pop was purely a result of the Trillions that the Gov't pumped in (not an option next time). Most Mag 7 are vertical, that is not sustainable and should or may produce a decent retest lower (prior to next vertical up).

21,685 and under would be decent drop, look for U Turn near and if not get shorter.

12/19 Update, Yesterday was the twice as far and twice as fast Short Day that I mentioned last week. The O/N propping and stabilizing is easy to see but hard to Short (time) precisely. The Air Pockets show up and stick out (but keep climbing) and you have to short into the trend (while it is climbing). Again, trading has changed over the prior 4-5 years to be 1 way Long with simple tricks & patterns. These fast food type (cheap) moves will kill you or the market eventually. Through in the fact that the Smart Money pro's need the retail BTD/FOMO to open their exit (Long Trap). The NQ1 is 300 points higher that NQZ, Yellow arrow is the actual drop or low and the white arrows are prior Turn Zone Air Pockets that are targets on a further drop. Keep in the the Long move back up and the low volume tricks as we move into a few weeks of nothing price action. The NAZ may lift with same tricks for 2 weeks and drop the entire move in a few hours come the 1st week in January.

Volume jumped December 16, 17 & 18th, was much lower in prior weeks as the that was the weak buying that played into the heavy selling. We may see another or more weak lift and then heavy selling cycles as the Long exit may be bigger move that plays out over the next month or so.

NDX 3 year CAGR is 10%, 32% this year and the 4.37 drop yesterday took a chuck. Few more big days and 3 year CAGR will get reduced and force some selling (protect gains). NAZ near 19,000-18,000 would be the area of acceleration selling.

12/19 Overnight is selling off. The chart below will show Reg Session Zones (Yellow Arrows). The Black background are Reg Session, Blue are Final Hour and other shades are Overnight. I have been saying that all moves up have been in Non Reg Session, now look at the Reg Session selling. What I am pointing out is how the NAZ is manipulated with the O/N and the Reg Session usually sells off or will go sideways. When the O/N sells off that will be very bad for the NAZ should the Reg Session not redirect.

12/20 Update TGIF, BTD/FOMO Forever. The NAZ is lower 250 points and NQ1 is still off 300 points vs Current NQZ. Chart below is NQ1 with old TL's and MA's, the O/N low is NQZ value of 20,846 and 20,725 is the potential target and U Turn Zone for today. 21,195 and under Short was call and look for NAZ to try and move back up into range or near 21.195. On chart the yellow circle to the left is a U Turn zone that the NAZ will need to get above in order to go Long. Make sure you understand the 300 point differential vs NQ contracts, the NQ1 is actually 300 points lower than what it shows.

Lower O/N is an anomaly (like a Bigfoot sighting), just watch out for the -7% Limit Down Bigfoot, it may be lurking as we have not seen a O/N limit down session in 5 trading years and had 3 (-5%) limit down in 2020. That was when to O/N was used to drop the NAZ. The limit down is now -7% so it will be easier to manipulate any drop. Reg Session usually sells off and throw in a few limit down O/N's and we are back at 2024 open price (just a few days would do it).
บันทึก
Adjusted Post with NQZ value, NAZ is at 20,846 (thick yellow dash). This is about half way down yellow arrow drop target and KL 20,725 may be 1st U Turn zone to watch.

S&P Index is due for some sideways price action in 2025 and 4,800 is lower retest and Long above. In other words, may see a drop and below KL 4,800 is only worry. Anything above will just paly in range. We were at 5,100 in August, so doable if NAZ loses concentration and Rig Power. NAZ breaks down and all break down.

So far nothing has changed with our typical patterns. Friday-Monday Long Play and predicted U Turn into. The next few low volume weeks should be sideways to up unless this is part of a larger Long Trap. Closing post and have a Great Holiday. I may provide some updates over the next few weeks if things get interesting and the NAZ moves out of this range or gets below the lower U Turn danger Zone.

NAZ is near Yesterday high, not expecting much more.
