Cycle Patterns Seem To Dominate Predictive TrendsI find it very interesting that my Cycle Patterns predicted the following more than 2 years in advance of this move..
9-26: Breakdown
9-27: Harami/Inside
9-28: CRUSH
9-29: GAP Potential
9-30: Top Resistance
10-1: Consolidation
10-2: Temporary Bottom
10-3: Gap Reversal
10-4: Breakdown
10-5: BreakAway
10-6: Rally
10-7: Carryover
10-8: Bottom
10-9: N/A
10-10: N/A
Given what we saw with the SPY price over the past few weeks, could you have identified the Consolidation, Temp Bottom, Gap Reversal, Breakaway, Rally phases this week after everyone else seemed uber-bearish?
I know they are not perfect yet, but I'm impressed that these cycle patterns seem to be 60% to 70% accurate within a 48~72 hour window. If they continue to perform well, we should be looking at a MELT UP over the next 10+ days that may start a new Christmas Rally phase.
Follow my research.
NQ
Trendmaster Market Update - Monday October 3rd -Welcome to Monday October 3rd
The Q3 close last Friday showed a complete route in the general markets as the quarterly close saw the DOW, NQ, and SP down 16%, 17%, and 20% from their summer rally highs. The Dollar Currency Index is still fully parabolic from it’s double bottom from May 2021. The collapsing value of the Swiss Bank Credit Suisse has brought to problems in Deutsche Bank and several other institutions across the European continent. That being said everyone is bearish and expecting more downside and historically Q4 is the strongest quarter.
*Breaking* - hastily announced emergency FED meeting (US) has been called for today at 17.30 UTC
-Markets
Both the Nasdaq and the SP500 are at critical support. The Nasdaq closed the quarterly under 11k signaling the lowest close in 2 years however still holding above it’s 9.7k pre covid dump high. A gain of 11.5k is the only thing that matters to the upside -
The SP500 also closed the Quarter under 3.6k another 2 year low with only the pre covid dump high at 3.4k to offer any levels of importance to the downside. -
The VIX is still hovering around the low 30s and at a potential failure point. A loss of 29.5 and the major support there could see some bullish relief as markets have been generally crushed and fear and panic are reaching 2008 levels. Anything above 35 and the bearish markets should accelerate to the downside. -
-Crypto
BTC is still hovering near its main resistance as 20k which is the September, July, and Q3 open. This is the main area to break out from which upon its gain should see a test of 21.2k at the least. To the downside 18.6k has remained an important swing in price action and between that and 18.4k there any major losses or level there should flush the price back into the 17k zone. -
ETH although retracing more than BTC following the highs from the summer rally, ETH continues to hold above the June/July range high at 1.27k. Any loss of level around 1.22k should see a retest of the previous range levels at the low 1100s. To the upside a regain of the floor of 1.4k could see ETH rally to its September open levels of 1.55k. -
BTC1! - BTC trading on the CME is opened up monday with a slight gap just above 19.2k at that is the Daily, Weekly, Monthly, and Quarterly open. The CME Report showed nothing significant other than Exchanges/Brokers being extremely short as of last Tuesday. Asset Managers/Institutions are still completely out of position on their longs that were added in November ‘21, and April, August of this year are severely under water. CME traders want the regain of 20.4k to test up into the 22k zone. There is also a very old CME gap from 17.6k to 17k which is still untouched from the 2020 runup. Any fill of that gap would be critical in the overall price and a buy back or continued loss of that zone would dictate BTC’s direction for the coming quarter. -
Spotlight
NFLX - Netflix has been playing out a beautiful 17%+ range for the past 6 weeks with major support at 215 and resistance at 250. Buying higher lows from the support and Selling lower highs from the resistance is still viable until proven otherwise. A loss of the 215 low should see a retest of it’s June monthly open at 198 while conversely a breakout of 250 could see the gigantic gap between 252 and 330 finally filled. A breakout however, is only likely in a general market rally. -
Financial Events
The emergency FED meeting today at 17.30 UTC is of critical importance to the markets as the financial system is showing signs of cracking. The only item listed under Matters to be Considered is “Review and determination by the Board of Governors of the advance and discount rates to be charged by the Federal Reserve Banks.
Other important items this week:
Wednesday Oct 5th - Crude Oil Inventories
Thursday Oct 6th - Initial Jobless Claims
Friday Oct 7th - Unemployment Rate - Forecast 3.7%
Chart to Watch
The DXY Dollar Currency Index is generally the canary for market Bullishness or Bearishness as it has an inverse relationship with the general markets. The fact that we are at the midpoint of the “Dot Com Bubble” high structure is a frightening wake up call. It has continued its fully parabolic move since the double bottom back in May 2021 and shows no signs of slowing. The important swing low at 111.3 needs to be broken and retested bearishly which would signal a general correction in the DXY and see much needed relief flood into the markets. It has currently only tested structure at 111.6 in the past few days of retracement and looks primed to send off to new highs. The eventual parabolic break of the DXY will be a catalyst for a significant bear market rally. -

Currently there is around 23.6% that the asset is going to close either above or below the channel:
TOP 11600

The current volatility percentile is around 89th, placing us in a very risking and volatility week.
And in this situations in general the market moves:
AVG weekly bull candle = 2.38%
AVG weekly bear candle = 2.692%
With this mind, from the opening price it would situate us around
TOP 11300
BOT 10500
At the same time, due to the nature of the opening price, making this weekly candle a bearish candle, there is currently a
36% that we will break the ath of previous weekly candle of 11600.
From the technical analysis point of view:
The majority of moving averages ranging from 10 to 200, are currently around 80% agreement that the market is in a short trend ( the current price is below those moving averages)
At the same time if we are looking at the candle type since the beginning of the year, we can see that 60.61% of them were bearish, solidificating the bearish trend.

- Monday 3 October : ISM PMI
- Tuesday 4 October : JOLT Job
- Wednesday 5 October : ADP and ISM release

NQ - still time for the right shoulderIm long here NQ and ES, tight stop though.
Needs above 11275, the target is 11380-90 by 6am or so.
If we see this move before the PCE numbers, I will exit longs and go short.
What if it will be a repeat of what happened last time PCE number was out.
Tomorrow should move the price above the last several days range, its also a directional change day and it could be a move in one direction but outside of the range.
So a low tomorrow or Monday (Im in a low on Fri/Sun for the futs) and rally into at least 5th or even 7th.
The rally will be muted and choppy imo just to reset the indicators.
Tomorrow is a not weekly, but monthly and quarterly closing!
Should be very interesting close and if it looses today's lows we could see another 100 points plus cut
Have a good night!
NQ will continue its free fall hello,
It was predictable that NQ will go down because of the over injection of dollar in the USA economy,
so it is normal that nq won't stand more this fall is its fatal destiny
always look up for sell opportunities do not buy.
remember i am not having a cristal ball prediction markets future but i try to be more efficient and more rational so kep eyes on my chart it will guide you it is simple to understand
good luck
NQ is looking much lower!Here are the levels of importance for NQ on the downside:
- 11060
- 10656-500
- 10300
- 9990
The last 2 numbers are the main target zone now
I want one more push tomorrow.
Since it's not only weekly, but monthly and (very important) quarterly closing this Fri.
Last 2 quarter ends both resulted in selling last 2 days, something to pay attention to.
So a flush is very possible to start as early as tomorrow or ideally after Oct 3rd high.
I have closed my ES short at 3715.50, 3710.5 from 3727 and waiting to enter with some longs, but will have stops, dont want to wake up with a huge gap down.
Also Im in with some SPY 351 Oct 21st puts and some Fri SPY calls from the close.
If we break down, I will be entering to my swing MNQ position.
For now I want to see a standard 50-61.8% retracement to get long in am.
ES is at 3665 (main target) and 3682
NQ is at 11377 and 11322 (I like 11355 as a target)
Here is 1h chart with support and resistance white lines
Good night
nasdaq 9-22 update~nasdaq still looks to be on track to make a new high before this year ends.
i shared this nq idea not too long ago, and it ended up playing out nicely - check it out if you missed it:
===
it's easy to get caught up in the bear funk that's going around these last few days,
but the charts point up in the mid-term, so that's what i'm mostly focused on.
===
11,342--->14,300 into new years ~
===
ps. nq making this last leg down could pull es down slightly lower too, to about 3730~3710 before the bullish pivot.
NDX 2008 vs NDX MAsNDTW = the percentage of Nasdaq 100 stocks above their 20D Moving Averages
NDFI = " " 50D MAs
NDOH = " " 100D MAs
NDTH = " " 200D MAs
I noticed NDTW was at 1 for the first time since Covid bottom, where it only spent a week bouncing a round down there; but this is closer to the 2008 crash. So I examined that.
When NDTW went under 5% in 2008 for the first time, the index was still 30% from the bottom, a month later. Then it chopped around for 2 months until double bottom. Interesting to note the market capitulated at the beginning of October in 2008.
It seems the bottom will be a long bumpy road, with opportunities both ways. Be nimble and stay frosty!
Consider DXY-weighted indexes for true valueThe Forex markets have been playing games with the U.S. Indexes; but weighted by DXY, the markets actually look much stronger, especially on the latest leg down. Possible IHS if it reverses soon.
The signal up top is the difference between DXY weighted and USD weighted. If you scroll out you'll notice there's never been this much discrepancy between the two.
NQ is testing the bottom of the bear flagWatch this bear flag to break and we see 11165-35 very quick.
Main support is at 11234, breaking that will flush quick
I have the price down to even 11050-60 level.
Very important to hold here.
My thinking is we sell off into the open and move up after Powell speech tomorrow am
Today's action off the low could be another trap for the perma bulls to call it the low...
Will be waking up early tomorrow to watch the market and see where I add to my SPXL and some Oct calls long position I started today
P.S. DO NOT GO LONG Heavy! This can crash and the crashes come from the oversold conditions! Size properly and have stops or more powder to add
