Let the post below be a warning that taking a short trade in a bull market without a stop loss can affect your bank balance and thus your mental health. Alex, you might find it more satisfying to send a stern letter to the market makers at Nasdaq HQ explaining what in your view they should be trading to - I doubt if they're reading your many protestations on this website, but however, Good Luck!
The trick with this index is that everything is bullish. Inflation ticking up? Bullish. War in Ukraine? Bullish. War in the Middle East? Bullish. Way too high job numbers, which will prove to be inflationary? Bullish? Blood in your poo? Bullish.
up 46% in 1 year from an already elevated position. China launching a special military operation in Taiwan = bullish. Israel nuking Iran = bullish. mad Trump reelected = bullish. We all go live in caves to save the planet = no Internet the end
The only way is up, baby for you and now! ;-)
Absolutely correct! The trend is your friend until the bend at the end, but always be ready for a handbrake turn ! ;-)
I like that quote. Will be stealing!! ;-)
NFP Friday Nas100 WILL BUY THank me 15:45
Boy do I feel so wrong right now... This is now seeming like a top-less mountain whose peak we will not be able to determine till the possible next gen tech overhaul is complete...
17,400 we get it

The 10 year note is still rallying despite Fed Powell's discouraging words about early rate cuts, which is supportive for the Naz. Apple, Amazon and Meta reporting after the bell today - all AI developer stocks; and if Apple rallies towards $200 it could fire the whole AI sector. Microsoft now showing a chart bull flag after some short lived downside following earnings....
Looks like a sell on strength with range bound action... Please call support and resistances here... Zizag into May?
already 500 points down in few days
Microsoft and Alphabet earnings after the bell tonight, will be scrutinised for returns on their AI investments. If ''AI'' becomes the new ''DotCom'' the rally could go on for a while. Party like it's 1999 ?! This week could give an insight imho....
Could be some bull coming up! (Possibly obviously maybe) :-)
I suspect the bull still has his horns, and if 'buy the dip' still works !
Will start going down around march time
From which position is the question.
sell Nas
A big week for the Naz with Microsoft and Alphabet earnings tomorrow, The Fed rates decision on Wednesday and Apple, Amazon and Meta earnings on Thursday. Plenty of scope for a volatile whipsaw on the Fed decision imho.....
I do also think there more bear action to come though.
For sure, but as usual it;s all about getting the timing right. Good luck!
You too :-)
Tesla bad results equals market boom
17700
1550
entered a 3x short trade at 17630
missed the dip and closed out with 1% profit. Will re-enter soon though
Netflix has rallied over 13% on last night's outstanding results with Tesla on deck after the bell today. The chart looks very bull flaggish so I wouldn't be surprised to see a nother bull surge pumping the Naz yet again !
I've just noticed a sad post on an adjacent thread that the originator will recognise:- '' make a coffee, cry because the Nasdaq has gone up 1000 points, fry an egg, cry because the Nasdaq has gone up 15,000 points, go to bed'' (etc) - profound commiserations old chap, but have you not discovered the useful stop loss facility on your account? - Trading on margin can only work on the basis of small losses when you are wrong and large profits when you are right ! Good Luck.
Naz futures marked up today in anticipation of imminent big tech earnings with Netflix reporting tomorrow, Tesla on the 24th, Intel 25th and Microsoft / Alphabet on the 30th Jan. PCE inflation data this Friday might cause some volatility, not to mention the Fed rates decision on the 31st Jan which could blunt the bulls horns bigtime imho.
Inflation will rise again, so the Federal Reserve is printing money quickly and pumping it into the market in order to avoid a major crisis on the way, so it wants to mitigate it, but it will fail because here more than 7 trillion dollars have been printed and pumped into the markets, and that will cause a disaster soon.
Who's giving us bears the lube now? As you know now we can't buy our own... And the bull horn is getting thicker and thicker...
I am so numb now, I am just holding my position...might not be able to do for much longer though... Any insights? I believe we're just about at the tipping edge...
Search for Ron Walker trader - he has some recent videos on the topic which are interesting. He basically thinks a rug pull is coming, but maybe not for 2 weeks. Personally, I think this has gone up far, far too much already with no major pull back - it is ridiculous. Sure, the market can do what it wants, but this is just absurd. I have never seen an index go up in a straight line this much. It is being manipulated to close out shorts - no doubt about it.
I am holding a 3x chips bear, added more everytime it topped... I have 2x more than I originally started with... Fingers crossed...
It's incredible how there was so much volatility when futures opened, but then from the Asia open onwards (i.e. the last 9 hours +). there has been virtually no movement in price. Does this really strike you are normal price action? Where has all the demand that pushed the price up 10 hours ago gone? And why did they ALL decide to stop buying when Asian markets opened at 1am? And why did they ALL decide to stop buying when London markets opened at 8am? It's like future pricing is entirely made up based on absolutely nothing. Funny how it always goes up too - never goes down, does it? Free market my backside.
Completely normal futures price action - nothing to see here - move along now
