NQ Month End Forecast (03-20 / 03-31-23)

Month End 2 week forecast, switching over to new program in April, 23. NAZ in nearly 1 year range (white Box), POC (yellow dash), VA's (white dotted, H/L). The yellow dash lines (13500 & 11300) are extreme H/L targets. Solid yellow's are inside range KL's. Long above solid Yellow Box and Short below. I will provide limited intraday updates of shaded zones and KL's. Opposite direction trades form both, have been reliable. NAZ appears to be balance (inside white Box). Price is above POC (value) and at top of high VA (value area). Rejection above or pull back near POC may be next move. Fed Day this week and month/quarter end next week, so expect some movement as this may be the last push into the lower volume spring/summer months.

O/N hit 1st Shaded, Play others as targets. Will update pre open.

Bình luận:

Great book I thought I would pass along: Reading Price Charts Bar By Bar, Al Brooks. Chapter 11 covers 1st Hour of Trading and is spot on. Another add that I will include in my subscription service is the use of daily Futures Options. Check out CME/QuikStrike at CME site. QuikStrike is vital for the use of analyzing Options Puts/Calls and expected daily values. Review over the next 2 weeks as I will include the use of these products with trading strategies.

Bình luận:

O/N with a 200 point drop to test VA High of 2 week forecast. Chart below, 12540 is O/N low and 12574 is VA High.

Bình luận:

Notice the 12630 & 12750, these are targets on way back up. Still have some below, may see 2 way movement by Open or in Open session. Short from 1st shaded zone hit (12750) to SZ 12540 was trade to take after 1st NAZ pop up after O/N Open. Now play between 12480 and 12680 SZ's (shaded zone). Updated SZ's below.

Bình luận:

If you are trading, just watch SZ to SZ, Example: 574 VA High long to SZ 630, pass next SZ up (675), reject back to VA High, no hold then may try 480, hold at 480 then back to 574, pass at 574 then may try 675 or 725. This example may actually play out as typed, I would not doubt it (may be by EOD Monday regular session).

Bình luận:

Updated, Long above 12570 (570 near hit or NAZ never approaches) should work for Scalp to 630-675. Your call just a quick look and may drop after that.

Bình luận:

630 Hit, will try 670-75

Bình luận:

Move up stop as 670 did noy get hit and look short on stall out. Back near Open.

Bình luận:

Bình luận:

12670 Hit and looking sideways to lower prior to Open. Move up stop and look for Short Scalp. Updated SZ's.

Bình luận:

PB to 12610 is likely, hold on Long if you are flat.

Bình luận:

Mentioned the 680 - 480, may hold as range. I am in and out this week so limited updates.

Bình luận:

NAZ at 12670, PB to 630 likely.

Bình luận:

630 Hit

Bình luận:

640 retest and drop or pop.

Bình luận:

Updated Zones

Bình luận:

Range for break out.

Bình luận:

640 break should go to 700 after retest and confirm. If not 565

Bình luận:

650 test and may drop at no pass.

Bình luận:

This or drop to 600 and bounce

Bình luận:

Updated Zones, a Long into Close and O/N should retry O/N High, Your Call.

Bình luận:

Boring day and the O/N high is once again the high of the day. Expect the Prop into Tuesday, could be wrong but just the pattern. Will update in morning.

Bình luận:

NAZ moves 100 into O/N. 12640 -12740 SZ in O/N. They always sneak it in (low volume and such). Updated SZ's

Bình luận:

NAZ riding the channel line, updated zones/targets, crude did a U Turn, may be a flat one prior to Fed Day.

Bình luận:

Easy trade is the Long into close and O/N when NAZ has lower Regular session. I did not take, just noting for the 100th time. The chart below will show the 2022 Fed Prop Box (4 days), 1st 2023 Box (same days) and the 3rd is my projection. Box is pop and arrow is drop, I will be tilted to the Pop/drop play (just like other 2). Stack the boxes and those 8-12 days are the main lift for past several months, why would it change now? No Fed No Rally, Go Long and ride with the FOMO's, you can Short after.

Bình luận:

Updated zones, 740 is now gone.

Bình luận:

Yesterday was 680-480, today look at 680-50 - 850/900. Back after Open.

Bình luận:

12720 PB likely.

Bình luận:

Keep in mind that the NAZ may exceed O/N high but usually will not maintain. Usually will pass, drop and try again in Dead Zone.

Bình luận:

Open Range

Bình luận:

Got to 40 from upper Open target, PB Zones are 760, 720

Bình luận:

Push Pull is showing up, look 2 way.

Bình luận:

O/N High is key and NAZ back under, typical may/usually struggles and then will magically pop through. Back Later.

Bình luận:

760 and 720 Hit, Divergence on this chart, may drop more.

Bình luận:

Typical O/N Prop Job and Open Selloff. Not seeing big move lower, sideways unless the Ticks get bad, 1268 maybe on low target.

Bình luận:

Hard day, all indexes seem to be rolling over? May pop, if not deeper test.

Bình luận:

NAZ slightest lifts are getting sold.

Bình luận:

12764, bottom 1st 30M retest.

Bình luận:

Dead Zone trying for O/N High.

Bình luận:

764 break will go to 730

Bình luận:

764 to O/N high is range to watch.

Bình luận:

Updated Zones, NAZ hit PB 720 and Dead Zone did try to lift back up. May float or selloff by EOD.

Bình luận:

Looks like NAZ is staying in Open Range posted earlier. Doubt that it goes to 950

Bình luận:

12950 is in view, the run up is one sided and many retests will follow. Updated Zones.

Bình luận:

Updated Zones for PB's. many.

Bình luận:

Updated Post, POC and VA's have not changed much at all. Need to see the support or volume support the price level. Price above value is not good unless value area moves up. Could be great Short should price continue to lift with support remaining lower or far behind. I trust nothing and today was a snail move in the DZ (my magical joke).

Bình luận:

O/N Zone update, 12820 Zone Hit for Short from 12890. Notice new zone above at 12885 and 788 below. May be range.

Bình luận:

updated Zones

Bình luận:

Yellow arrow is Trend and Box is Bracket for breakout.

Bình luận:

Long on 2nd hit of lower bracket to 840. Stop 10-20 under Lower bracket and Short at 840 on no pass. Scalp Trades.

Bình luận:

840 Hit, move stop and NAZ may try for 870. No Short yet.

Bình luận:

Next moves, back later.

Bình luận:

IDS20,for those that plan to join the Trading Group, email me at [e-mail] / The chart below will provided and the following is what to look for or start to get familiar with: When the lower indicator is above Zero and the White bars (near arrow) are rising, you would trend Long. Reverse when lower below Zero and Red bars are falling. Use Shaded Zones as targets/reverse trades.

Bình luận:

70% of the time the NAZ will move within a bracket prior to break out. IDS20 will help with identifying the range and show divergence that will send the NAZ back to top/bottom. The bracket Scalp points add up while the NAZ goes nowhere.

Bình luận:

White arrow is most likely a Short set up for NAZ to try lower Zones. Need to watch sideways movement at 840 and red line staying below prior red line 12855. White is above white so Long until red line play out. 4am to 5am is inside prior move (red/white).

Bình luận:

Turd developing above 12850 and may try for 870, stall and fall. These Scalps need to play out and waiting is key as the games are played.

Bình luận:

Range of play for break out, prior to Open.

Bình luận:

Yellow Dash = POC for the day, purpleish lines are VA's Top/bottom. O/N tested yesterday Top VA. May try again in Open or under POC. Current red line did move up but we have very little movement in range. The weak slow lift is misleading as we approach Fed Decision. Believe that sell the news is the play today.

Bình luận:

870 rejected and back to mid range. Watch yellow arrow or red bar of previous and white bar drop. No drop stay Long, on drop go short. Looking for NAZ to break out of VA's and yellow Box.

Bình luận:

FYI 12840 is Mid Range, not a good spot to start a trade. No Trade Zone or lower probability area. Trading near upper/lower range in opposite direction is preferred.
Long at 820 and short at 870 would of been trades. These levels had been mentioned prior to the moves that have played out. Keep this in mind as the NAZ bounces around the Box/Range (most likely) most of the morning or until Fed Explosion.

Bình luận:

12870, Short to lower Box for a test. 820 or 800

Bình luận:

Stop under 12850 on Short.

Bình luận:

12940 upper hit, NAZ may drop from here, use stop at 950 on short if still on.

Bình luận:

Updated Zones, PB to 12900 likely

Bình luận:

NAZ under 940 should try 830, slow day. Scalping until explosion.

Bình luận:

Updated Shaded, NAZ bounced off Top Box.

Bình luận:

830 is target

Bình luận:

870 to top is most likely a clean out. 950 was limit or stop.

Bình luận:

Updated zones

Bình luận:

910 retest

Bình luận:

under 910 strong short.

Bình luận:

Deep negative Ticks and NAZ is hanging. Rigged.

Bình luận:

Huge Option Put order volume at 12500, may be low.

Bình luận:

877 held, Closing Short at 895, -25. Will reload. Strange support here.

Bình luận:

Price still way above value, nothing is changing except price is rising. Price usually heads back to value, value needs to lift for long play.

Bình luận:

905-10 retested, wiggle move will clean out everything.

Bình luận:

Last Update prior to release

Bình luận:

This before (box and arrow are projections), the usual play is the Prop FOMO lift, then the 30 plus day drop.

Bình luận:

12980 will go to 13200 is stays above

Bình luận:

Bình luận:

Not sure, other indexes are flatish

Bình luận:

If you are trading, you may want to wait until after he talks. All he has to say is anything and the NAZ will jump 500 points. Good if you are Long, bad if short so wait.

Bình luận:

updated zones

Bình luận:

877 again, will hold most likely

Bình luận:

Staying in Range of Zones.

Bình luận:

FOMO Push see Ticks

Bình luận:

Important Update, NAZ will up or lower here.

Bình luận:

840 is target, same as my 1st trade, funny.

Bình luận:

840 taken now up and may try High, not kidding.

Bình luận:

More box to fill.

Bình luận:

IDS20, when 840 zone was taken out the NAZ did not hit 13200. Turned at 980 and went to lower zones. The lower has to be up for Longs and lower for Shorts. Just follow the system. Was trading and could not type. New system will be live.

Bình luận:

12000 next ?

Bình luận:

Price is moving toward value, always look at this.

Bình luận:

Updated Zones for O/N and tomorrow.

Bình luận:

CL or Crude may be a Short.

Bình luận:

We are at yesterday low. Look for rallies up, stalling and falling. That is how the drops have been playing out. Highly doubt that we see any big 1 way lower days.

Bình luận:

Updated Zones, NAZ trying for 780 and after with no pass may try 705, will check back in morning with the weather forecast also.

Bình luận:

SaneusiRsebuN with another great call in O/N, I encourage this so join in if you would like. Rule is you have to post Entry (prior to any significant run), Target and update your exit or reverse. More mind are better and I am ultimately try to find the service/person that will let me sit back and just press buttons, this may be you. Anyway, Shaded Zones are new and have been reliable. Updated are below, the NAZ tends to target the nearest one and if no hit will change direction. This was the result yesterday of my "Important Update" comment. I will update as day plays out.

Bình luận:

Regarding the 2 week "weather forecast", the chart below is what we have seen from White Arrow to upper Box, rejection and now resting on a Key Level (KL). Yellow arrow is range through Friday close, IMO.

Bình luận:

Like I stated after the close, we will see rallies/lifts up, stall and drops. This is how the NAZ will decline, get use to the O/N propping up after a big down day, these are the easiest trades and have been going on the entire Bear. This offset is used to stabilize the index and create great Shorts for the Open Range (1st 30M). IDS20 below, notice lower indicator is above zero and price did take out SZ 12780, passed 788. Just expect a retest below should any SZ's above not get hit.

Bình luận:

IDS250, NAZ will try 12600 prior to next attempt higher. Back later, like I stated not in as much this week or next.

Bình luận:

IDS20 lower is below zero, next set up for short, expect a wiggle and any drop that does not hit lower SZ will come back up. Short development needs to play out. Anyway, 12860-12700 may be range for Open and large part of the day.

Bình luận:

12850 was Bottom of yesterday Open Range (1st 30M), watch Top, Mid, Bottom of that and any rejection will send NAZ lower.

Bình luận:

Watch the Diablo (NAZ Killer), may rotate around some. I have seen it pass and then go back under pretty hard. Use as Long above/Short below for Scalps.

Bình luận:

12930 is upper limit today, should NAZ get passed 850-60. Short set up is still in bracket and will go with rejection under 850-60.

Bình luận:

Notice lower and SZ's, squeeze developing and NAZ will shoot out to top for break or strong rejection. Short set up is still in Bracket.

Bình luận:

SZ 835 is gone, rejected NAZ, updates below.

Bình luận:

Anyway, this has been a good example of how a Short develops. You can see the hit in 90's, pop up in Bracket and retest at lower Bracket. Still needs to get lower but the upper range of Bracket is the Short from and not the 1st hit lower. NAZ should blow out of the bottom and you should be in from 835.

Bình luận:

Can somebody tell me why these indexes are up at all? Rigged Long Trap, the NAZ will be broken down by the EOW, Back Later. 12800 holding will produce a pop up, so place stop on short at entry of just above.

Bình luận:

SZ's, purple lines are VA (value area) with yellow as POC, NAZ needs to leave range.

Bình luận:

920 failure look short 830 PB 1st.

Bình luận:

12900 is head fake long, top yesterday 1st 30M.

Bình luận:

840 is next test.

Bình luận:

Bình luận:

920 hit, Zones for back under.

Bình luận:

waiting on retracement to end, NAZ just playing in range.

Bình luận:

Strong Short 13015, edge Trade 100 point stop 5 contracts

Bình luận:

Stop at 315

Bình luận:

Lower low and lower high is the play. Will reload if stopped.

Bình luận:

Updated Zones

Bình luận:

12900 next

Bình luận:

Like I aid, the NAZ will go higher 1st, stall and drop. Typical offset Bear.

Bình luận:

Should break as FOMO's and BTD's are all on board, may not until later. 13080 is in view on hold.

Bình luận:

Range until close.

Bình luận:

Deep negative Ticks should show up for drop test, 12900 hold is a Long back up. Stop at 330

Bình luận:

13030 Stop.

Bình luận:

980 Break is all that is needed.

Bình luận:

On Edge Trade yellow line would be Add Shorts.

Bình luận:

Stop at 015

Bình luận:

Closing 5 at 12970, plus 45 x 5 225

Bình luận:

Play range should come back up some. Back later.

Bình luận:

957 may bounce.

Bình luận:

957 did bounce and will try 13003. 957 was top 1st Hour.

Bình luận:

Zone Update

Bình luận:

Above 957 should try top, KL to watch. This is a No Trade Zone or Bracket, hard to predict.

Bình luận:

Strange here at 12970, Ticks have been constant -300ish and O/N provided much of lift, just not feeling the strength. Lately that really does not matter as the lift just shows up. Careful will check back.

Bình luận:

Range is playing out

Bình luận:

Range and Long above 840 or should 840 hold. CL is selling off.

Bình luận:

Diablo, back to and may hold. Mentioned the NAZ will do this.

Bình luận:

Bounced off Diablo.

Bình luận:

Strong Short was the hold, next time. NAZ is all over the place.

Bình luận:

Even though NAZ was up (due to O/N prop) the stronger volume was to the downside today, in the Open Session and not fake O/N.

Bình luận:

Zones for O/N, use as targets and entries.

Bình luận:

NAZ tried for 12911 and did not hit, will try again or drop to lower zone.

Bình luận:

NAZ with 2nd rejection at Box Top, 3rd tomorrow or South?

Bình luận:

Crude looks similar, all cylinder's South?

Bình luận:

Testing this new Zone Signal that I have been using past few weeks, pretty reliable. If you compare the proceeding chart to a current chart you will see that I delete a zone once it is hit. I the add a new one that has developed. The remaining are the next or current targets. Current chart with zones is below. Keep the Diablo in your view.

Bình luận:

Current as 830 was hit, look at 12900 or 1230 next. Nobody knows which is next, one will most likely get hit and then to the other. Sounds crazy but watch it play out.

Bình luận:

Zone Update, NAZ in 100 point range, Dax and Crude lower, looking lower for today. Notice how NAZ took out SZ 12890 and fell back. Set would of been Long to SZ 12890 and reverse on break failure with target at SZ 12730 (long term). Since SZ hit, I have added 2 new SZ's, but keep SZ's 12950/12730 in your plans.

Bình luận:

Past 2 days have had the exact same Open Range's (1st 30M), balanced. The Box is your guide, Short below and Long above with Long try to pass 12300 (3rd attempt). Thinking 1 way South Drive today. But always plan for some strange move higher at some point as the rigging stabilizing games will show up to shake you out. SZ 12825 just got hit.

Bình luận:

Bigger picture

Bình luận:

NAZ out of box, 12734 is target

Bình luận:

Starting to get some nit picker's past few days, F Off with your BS, D Bags.

Bình luận:

Crude Update, $2 lower since last chart.

Bình luận:

Updated zones, 12820 and under stay Short

Bình luận:

To be clear, the Short should have come from Upper SZ that got hit. If you are entering now you would expect a pop/Long up to 820 for your entry. Your Short entry is late and you have to deal with Open Range wiggle, so a Long here is most likely the correct play and not a Short (12777 is KL from few days ago)

Bình luận:

X marks the spot, TLX 849 would suggest Long above and short below. Notice how low is approaching/falling from 820. Got to move quick and I can't type and scalp, back after open.

Bình luận:

12823 is lower VA and may be hard to pass. 847 is OR Open Range bottom, so Long has some obstacles if trying for 850-60. This is the Short entry set up that I was mentioning (long to 820 was idea, then reverse), Open is the variable that will shake you out so hold off or use wide stop.

Bình luận:

12800 Long offset pop coming through, This is where they prop up to offset the big one later.

Bình luận:

12800 20 point pop was the head fake that set up the 50 point drop to 12770. This is what you need to look for as the NAZ moves from zone to zone.

Bình luận:

New Zone 750 is Long to 780. The yellow arrow is the original Short Idea at 5AM, the 3 Hit at 820 was the set up for the 750 or 730 SZ try (called earlier). No hit at 730 is a Long back up to 780 or 820. You have to be super quick and this is why I can't type and trade. Eventually this just get programmed in you head and yo see it.

Bình luận:

Anyway, NAZ is struggling to get lower so expect a pop up prior to big drop and look for Push/Pull PA. Best indicator of a Short day. Big picture is that NAZ is still in range of yesterday, just busywork BS as we approach Open. Take profit on Shorts until jerky PA fades.

Bình luận:

Thinking this for Open, lets see.

Bình luận:

Set take profits at 50 points, long from 770 is last good entry, if you missed 750, 820 needs to break for up move. 1st major stal will see a drop test today.

Bình luận:

770 Long should be flat.

Bình luận:

Crude came up 1.5%, Algo's follow.

Bình luận:

So far

Bình luận:

730 -20 is KL

Bình luận:

Watch TL

Bình luận:

above 722, Dead Zone will Jack this back up.

Bình luận:

Still nowhere new, play the range.

Bình luận:

Key Point, Notice the bottom 12730 and reaction to what 12950, Watch, no hit coming back down.

Bình luận:

12920 Short was only great Short. All others had to be scalped in order to work out. You can play under 12920 in either direction.

Bình luận:

Set your Take Profit at 50 points, this has been the range per move. Back later.

Bình luận:

1st HR in, still nowhere. This is being held up, be careful on the Long side. Like yesterday, I waited for retracement and went short. Scalp Longs until the drop comes. Play their game. 840 seems to a problem. May try Shorting from there with 50 point stop. So long to and short from. Your call I am gone for a bit.

Bình luận:

Shorting from TLX, Working TLX's are reliable for turning points, NAZ gets above a Long may work.

Bình luận:

Updated

Bình luận:

TLX no pass

Bình luận:

Zone 780 hit, next move should be it.

Bình luận:

Crude was flat now -1.5%, -4 to 0 and back under.

Bình luận:

Bình luận:

I believe that 13000 retest is out, may see a drop today under TLX.

Bình luận:

840 trades are working, strong short under 722

Bình luận:

865 or 710, NAZ still in Open Range. Another drop may be here under 788

Bình luận:

Not taking this Long at 12790, only well above TLX after retest.

Bình luận:

Sideways slow roller prior to next move, could float up, typical Friday. Back Later, Flat until break out.

Giao dịch được đóng thủ công:

Will close this post here and start new Monday. Done, can't trade the Snail floaters, just too easy and make me nervous, have fun as it may go all the way to the moon. Will Short and come back in should it actually, really, for once HAPPEN. Scalping is getting old, we need a solid break out in either direction. Yesterday looked like it, but the sold all off and then some.

Bình luận:

Updated Zones, NAZ may try hard to break 840-50. No go heading South.

Bình luận:

IDS20, rule of thumb is 3 or so hits at Bar, no pass, opposite direction trade.

Bình luận:

Single Hit sessions are whipsaw and less reliable, back to prior 3 hit session level

Bình luận:

Line up lower Peaks with Price, Current session could be head fake or break out, time of day is random.

Bình luận:

2 hits, needs to pass or this is a Short.

Bình luận:

Tricky, 790?

Bình luận:

Red Bar dropped, suggests weakness. Needs to lift past other. If does not, will see a snap drop.

Bình luận:

Sorry Yellow is POC, Red is above Red.

Bình luận:

820 is box bottom and what to watch.

Bình luận:

Pop up looks like a Turd, may come back

Bình luận:

Turd Trick so far. Good as long it stays above 820.

Bình luận:

POC dropped. May hit zone above and drop.

Bình luận:

Waiting for lower indicator to drop

Bình luận:

TLX is blocking

Bình luận:

Waiting on Ticks

Bình luận:

Should drop,, again random zone.

Bình luận:

Turd

Bình luận:

920 above 820, this is so typical and why I pass. Hard to believe, every Friday.

Bình luận:

Great Log trap, but I highly doubt it. Mentioned 950 earlier, not far.

Bình luận:

At Turd top, needs fall trough.

Bình luận:

Strange day, NAZ still nowhere.

Bình luận:

840 miss, 920 is next

Bình luận:

Friday played out well, missed one at the end. Thing is, we get tired and by late week we are zapped. I think this why Friday afternoons are a great time to sneak in a move that favors the retail mindset and not institutional/trader. Review notes, called each move but had scrambled brain from all the scalps by the end. I think this is done by design (shake traders out). O/N high was 1st prop move (as world indexes, crude) were down big. Then lowest SZ to next highest major SZ with many direction changes (all day). NAZ closes where, O/N high. A MACD indicator may show the set up for a drop, if I am looking at correct. This could be the lift prior to and we may expect additional into Monday and possibly through. 13000 is in view for another test.

Updated Zone for Sunday/Monday

Bình luận:

VA & POC, not much change. Price is still high above value.
