NQ potential short setupGlobex High Sweep Setup : Price tagged the overnight high. Liquidity hunt likely before rejection.
Double Top Reversal : Classic short trigger with weakening momentum.
CVD and price: Price and CVD making higher highs — bullish pressure?
STRAT 3-1-2 Setup : Breakout above internal bar range could flip bias long.
Update after posting the chart: As this is a contrarian trade, please wait for short entry confirmation. The market is quite bullish, and a move down might be quite bumpy, with expected stop runs.

Intrigued to see if we sweep for a new ATH or a rejection to test demand levels below.
With a new ATH, gotta wait for more S/D S/R levels to be created.
Will resort to imbalance playbook or S/R play until then.

2025-07-23 - priceactiontds - daily update - nasdaqGood Evening and I hope you are well.
comment: Very tight channel up from 23142 but only 1 bear bar since then and in the absence of bear bars, we can only assume sideways to up movement.
current market cycle: bull trend
key levels: 23000 - 24000
bull case: Bulls want to print more higher highs. We are in this bull channel for the whole July now without breaking it and bulls now confirmed the breakout above 23100ish - 3 times. That is the 50% retracement of the last big leg up and very important. A measured move for this leg gives us 24000. Bears have tried with two decent legs to get down to 23000 and failed. I think many will give up on this after hours buying and we can have more meltup into the weekend. Anything bearish would be a big surprise.
Invalidation is below 23250ish.
bear case: Bears tried and failed again. Everything is bought. 1h close below 23250 would certainly stop the max bullishness but bears are really not doing much. We are almost printing daily new ath. Focus on longing pullbacks until the bull channel is broken.
Invalidation is above 24000.
short term: Bullish on any pullback until it stops working.
medium-long term - Update from 2024-06-29: No change in plans. I expect 20000 to get hit over the next 3 months and maybe 19000 again.
trade of the day: Long 23200 has been profitable since Friday.

📈 Chart Thesis:
Price has reclaimed equilibrium after engineering liquidity below the weekly low and rebalancing from the discount zone. We now sit above internal BOS (Break of Structure) with signs of continuation toward premium inefficiencies.
🔍 SMC Read:
ChCh (Change of Character) and BOS clusters confirm internal accumulation.
Liquidity sweep at the EQD (Equal Low/Discount) and reclaim of the OB signals strength.
Volume shows commitment on upward drive—aligns with algorithmic intent.
📊 Key Zones:
Support (Reclaim Confirmed):
23,150.50 (ORB Low)
23,102.50 (Weekly Low - Discount Level)
Resistance / Target Clusters:
23,360–23,440: Supply + SMC Breaker Zone
23,646.75: Extended target (Premium High / Measured Move Completion)
🚀 Trade Idea:
Bias: Bullish
Entry Zone: Retest near 23,195–23,220
Stop: Below 23,140
Target 1: 23,360
Target 2: 23,646.75
Risk-to-reward: ~1:3.5+ | Confirmation preferred via retest and OB hold

$NQ Supply and Demand Zones 7/23/25tradingview.sweetlogin.com
This SEED_ALEXDRAYM_SHORTINTEREST2:NQ chart is posted for my YouTube community.
The 1HR S/R level is holding price down well for now and we have tapped into the 4HR supply 2x so far. We have built up support that can use as potential bounce levels if* respected, but price needs to reclaim the S/R level and show higher lows. If not, a continuous close at lower lows with rejecting support at demand can show price dropping to 22830-23000 zones. The 4HR demand below has also been tapped into multiple times, so it's only a matter of time before it can no longer hold up (it's pretty much invalidated at this point lol).
07/23 Nasdaq
The variation was present pre-open as you can see in Yellow.
The Wick rejecting the downside repeated itself twice , so I went aggressively as you can see in blue.
The volume was on my side when I open the position so there was no drawdown at least not too much.
Recap.
Wait for Variation.
Wait for the Wick to reject the Downside
Wait for the volume to go up and use the wick as a stop loss
$NQ – Liquidity Sweep & Reversal Loading? NASDAQ Futures ( SEED_ALEXDRAYM_SHORTINTEREST2:NQ ) testing equilibrium support within a clean ascending channel structure. Recent price action swept local liquidity and reacted off the 1H EQ zone. Here's what we're seeing:

Multiple EQHs and BOS chains → strong institutional footprint
Price holding above higher low structure, respecting channel support
🔹 Setup Bias (VolanX Protocol)
Long bias active above 23,050
Retest of EQ zone confirms order flow shift
Target zones:
🎯 PT1: 23,250
🎯 PT2: 23,440 (Premium zone)
🎯 PT3: 23,600+ upper trendline (if macro aligns)
🔹 Macro Note: Watch for bond yields + VIX + tech earnings this week. Any surprise upside catalyst could fuel a breakout to new highs.

Elliott Wave View: Nasdaq Futures (NQ_F) Poised To Extend HigherThe Nasdaq Futures (NQ_F) favors higher in bullish impulse sequence from April-2025 low. It already broke above December-2024 high & expect short term pullback in 3, 7 or 11 swings to remain supported. Impulse sequence unfolds in 5, 9, 13, 17, 21….. swings count. It ended daily corrective pullback in double correction at 16460 low of 4.07.2025 low. On daily, it should extend into 28864 – 26152 area to finish April cycle before next pullback start. Above there, it favors rally in (3) of ((1)). It placed (1) of ((1)) at 21858.75 high, (2) at 21071.50 low as shallow connector & favoring upside in 5 of (3) against 7.13.2025 low. Every pullback after 4.21.2025 low was shallow & unfolded in 3, 7 or 11 swings calling for more upside as long as it stays above 5.30.2025 low. Within (3), it ended 1 at 22222 high, 2 at 21566.75 low, 3 at 23102.50 high, 4 at 22803 low & favors upsides in 5 of (3). Wave 4 as flat correction ended in 7.13.2025 low of 22803 low.
Below 3 of (3) high, it placed ((a)) at 22779.75 low, ((b)) at 23112 high & ((c)) at 22803 low as flat connector against 6.22.2025 low. Above there, it ended ((i)) at 23424.75 high as diagonal & ((ii)) at 23108 low in 3 swing pullbacks. Above there, it should continue rally in ((iii)) of 5, which will confirm above 23424.75 high to avoid double correction. Within ((i)), it placed (i) at 23222.75 high, (ii) at 22835.5 low, (iii) at 23320.75 high, (iv) at 23169.50 low & (v) at 23424.75 high. Currently, it favors upside in 5 of (3) into 23493.5 – 23934.5 area, above 7.13.2025 low before (4) pullback. Based on swing sequence, it already has enough number of swings in (3) to call the cycle completed. But as long as it stays above price trendline, passing through 2 & 4, it should continue upside into extreme area. We like to buy the next pullback in 3, 7 or 11 swings at extreme area for intraday rally. It favors upside in April-2025 cycle & expected to remain supported in (4) & later in ((2)) pullback as next buying opportunity.

MNQ. Bear Flag Pressure Cooker. Will Demand Hold or Detonate?After last week’s strong rejection from the 23,300 supply zone, MNQ has shifted from a bullish channel into a clean descending structure. This break in character, combined with consistent lower highs and compression into a high-interest demand zone, sets the stage for a decisive move either a clean continuation lower or a fake out reversal to sweep short liquidity.
Currently, price is sitting just above a demand block around 23,025–22,950, a level that previously triggered aggressive buying. The recent grind lower shows fading momentum, suggesting either a buildup of sell pressure for a breakdown or a trap being set for shorts before the next rotation higher. This area is key it either holds and we see a sharp reaction, or we slice through and flush toward the next HTF support around 22,775.
The bearish case is the cleaner of the two: price remains in a descending channel, and any acceptance below 22,950 opens the door to continuation. A clean breakdown here would confirm the bear flag thesis and likely bring in trend-followers looking for a move to retest deeper support. This path offers a clear directional bias, measured risk, and multiple levels of confluence.
That said, a bullish reversal cannot be ignored. If price sweeps the demand zone and reclaims 23,100 with strength especially during the NY open, we could see a squeeze through 23,280, tapping the liquidity resting above the descending channel. This would invalidate the current bear structure and hint at a possible return to the mid-23,400s. But for this to play out, bulls need to act fast and strong reclaiming lost structure and shifting momentum convincingly.
Contextually, this setup is loaded. The weekly open sits far above at 23,428, while last week’s highs and lows bracket the range between 23,331 and 23,101. The key inflection is clear: demand either breaks and we bleed, or it holds and we trap.
With NY Open approaching, I’m watching for a 30-minute ORB to confirm direction. Momentum and volume will be critical in confirming which scenario plays out. Until then, the bias remains bearish but flexible.
Staakd Rating: 9.8/10
Bias: Bearish below 23,100. Bullish only on reclaim and break of 23,280.
Key Trigger Zone: 14:30 BST / 09:30 ET NY Open ORB
Targets: 22,775 (bearish) / 23,450 (bullish trap breakout)
Longing NQWell, This looks like a very good long trade. But since we are over extended to the upside, i will be very careful.
use medium size to take this long.
You need to monitor the price when it enters this purple zone, and check for confirmation that the price is truly reversing from this area.
Anyways, before i enter the trade i will be updating, so make sure you check back again.
NQ Targets (07-18-25)I have not posted a Target call in awhile, this one is Long to upper TZ (23,486) and Short to YTD Open level. Prior use of Diablo's to Target drop was prior to NAZ 25% drop (11/24 Post's).
We are due for some drop retesting as we watch typical Long Side Tweets, Tricks and Games start to fizzle some. Today into Monday will be a key signal.
