/NQ Nasdaq Futures Price Target Hit, Objective Reversal Point

rsotc — Tue, 07 Apr 2026 22:31:55 +0000

/NQ (Nasdaq 100 futures) has just hit my bounce target (the primary downtrend line off the all-time highs & just shy of 25kish resistance level) posted last Thursday at the lows, with an essentially perfect entry as with the previous short trade posted just before that. As such, this offers an objective level to close out any longs and or reverse back to short on this test of the downtrend line (resistance) from below, as well as negative divergences on this 60-minute time frame. Stops should be commensurate with one’s average entry price & price target(s). The two previously posted (April 1st & April 2nd), followed by the updated 60-minute chart below.

Ditto for QQQ or any of the inverse or leveraged variations for ETF traders (as well as the smaller /MNQ Micro contract for futures traders, which trades off the same price levels as my /NQ charts, only using a smaller multiplier/leverage factor).

/NQ & /ES Rising Wedge Breakdowns 4-7-26

rsotc — Tue, 07 Apr 2026 12:49:04 +0000

/NQ (Nasdaq 100 futures) & /ES (S&P 500 futures) both went on to breakdown, backtest, & followed by a rejection of the 10-minute rising wedge patterns posted late yesterday. Those previous (yesterday’s) charts, followed by the updated 10-minute charts, along with a couple of adjustments to some of the nearby support & resistance levels.

I still think a short on crude oil (/CL, /QM, /MCL, USO, SCO, etc.) can serve as an indirect hedge to a short on the stock index futures or ETFs, making the proper beta-adjustment between the two (crude tends to move up & down more, so a smaller short on crude vs. the index short).

Should the inverse correlation between the two continue, then it is roughly a wash (i.e., a roughly equal hedge). However, I think there is a decent chance that sooner than later, we will start to see crude prices pull back, but remain at levels that are restrictive to economic growth, thereby resulting in weakness in equities.

/NQ Nasdaq Futures Initial Price Target Hit 4-2-26

rsotc — Thu, 02 Apr 2026 12:50:18 +0000

The 23671-ish initial pullback target on /NQ (Nasdaq 100 futures) posted yesterday when I started booking profits on the longs reversed into (from short) off Monday’s lows with QQQ hitting the bottom of my bounce target zone (and /NQ at price resistance as well) has been hit for a quick 2%+ profit. I’m closing those shorts reversed into around yesterday’s highs & reversing back to long for a bounce trade, with staggered stops somewhat below. Previous (Wednesday) & updated 60-minute chart, including my current bounce target, below.

NQ 60m April 1st

NQ 60m April 2nd

My stock market crash warning is still very much in effect, hence the relatively tight stops & quite likely (depending on what I see from here, if stopped out) a re-entry back to short in my active trading account.

FYI- Was stopped out of my /CL last night but starting to scale back in with a starter short here. More updates on that & more to follow soon.

QQQ & SPY Backtesting Resistance 4-1-26

rsotc — Wed, 01 Apr 2026 18:06:53 +0000

QQQ (Nasdaq 100 ETF) is currently testing the 200-day EMA & bottom of trading range (also the bottom of my bounce target zone) from below, still offering an objective level to close longs taken Mon when T2 was hit and/or continue scaling back into short positions (up to but not above the 200-SMA & downtrend line/top of bounce target zone). Updated daily chart, including my preferred bounce target zones & current max. bounce target, below.

QQQ daily 2 April 1st

Likewise, SPY (S&P 500 ETF) is also backtesting its 200-EMA & downtrend line from below, thereby offering an objective level to close longs and/or add-back shorts that were covered on Monday when QQQ. SOXX, SPY, & others all hit key price targets/support levels where the odds for a reaction were favorable. Daily chart, including my preferred bounce target zones & current max. bounce target, below.

Reversing /NQ From Long To Short 4-1-26

rsotc — Wed, 01 Apr 2026 12:27:04 +0000

I’ve decided to close out my /NQ longs here in the pre-market session for a quick 5%+ profit following Monday’s reversal off the lows (QQQ T2) & reversing to short in front of ADP report (at 8:30 am) with re-entry TBD, whether this 24214ish resistance level is taken out this morning or not. /NQ 60-minute chart below.

NQ 60m April 1st

Besides this being pretty decent resistance with /NQ overbought* (*typo edit) in the short-term with a pullback likely, as per yesterday’s video, I think the market has all eyes on the Middle East with the potential for a surprise miss on the ADP employment report.

I also suspect that we could start to see the start of the extremely tight, lock-step inverse correlation between the stock market & crude oil, with the /CL or USO, SCO, etc.. short trade continuing to play out with the stock market possibly pulling back with crude at some point this week and/or next, on potential demand destruction & near-term oversupply worries, especially if the remaining economic reports this week miss expectations.

QQQ Bounce Price Target Zone & Stops 3-31-26

rsotc — Tue, 31 Mar 2026 14:09:33 +0000

Active traders who reversed (covered the /NQ or QQQ swing shorts & went long) at the second price target (T2) yesterday might consider a stop at or slightly below entry
and/or trail stops entry to protect profits. My bounce target zone remains as posted yesterday (shaded area). Previous (yesterday) & updated daily charts below.

QQQ daily March 30th

QQQ daily March 31st

Remember, never trust a bear market rally (if that proves to be what this is, which I still believe it will). Just as they start to look, smell, & fell good, with the masses believing that it’s finally safe to get back into the water, is usually about they time they pull the rug, with the next leg down starting.

Have a trading plan & stick with it, until & unless something compelling convinces you to modify it.

QQQ 2nd Price Target Hit (daily chart) 3-30-26

rsotc — Mon, 30 Mar 2026 18:56:55 +0000

The QQQ (Nasdaq 100 ETF) swing trade has hit the second price target (T2), where the odds for a reaction are elevated before the next leg down. The profit for this trade depends on one’s average entry price, as multiple objective short entries, add-ons, and/or re-entries have been highlighted since the Nasdaq was topping over the past 6+ months.

While a solid break & close below T2 (556.90ish support) will increase the odds of T3 being hit soon, I am currently leaning towards a snapback rally with a max bounce target around the roughly intersecting 200-MA’s, bottom of trading range & downtrend line area before the next leg down. However, the RSOTC Stock Market Crash Warning remains in Effect for now, with the odds higher today than when the status was upgraded from a Crash WATCH to WARNING just over a week ago in this post on March 19th.

As such, any attempts by active traders to game a counter-trend bounce off this support level should be managed with the appropriate stops in place. Longer-term, less active swing & trend traders might opt to sit tight on swing/trend short positions (with wider stops in place) while riding out any counter-trend bounces, according to their trading plan. Previous & updated daily charts below.

Note: The majority of objective short entries, re-entries, & add-ons were highlighted in numerous videos since Q4 2025. Also, as per today’s previous video, any substantial (3%+) rally in the stock market will likely depend on a commensurate pullback in crude oil prices due to the near lock-step negative correlation between the two in recent weeks.

V Visa Final Price Target Hit 20% Profit

rsotc — Fri, 27 Mar 2026 16:26:09 +0000

The V (Visa Inc.) Short Swing Trade is close enough to the final price target (T6) that I’m closing the trade out here for a 20% profit from the initial short entry at 365.36 (higher gains, for those that gamed any of the bounces off the earlier targets). Initial (June 9th) & updated daily charts below. (T5 & T6 were added in subsequent updates since the initial short entry).

V daily June 9th

Depending on your trading plan, consider booking profits or at least lowering stops, if holding out for additional downside in V. This trade & all previous posts associated with it will now be moved to the Completed Trades archives.
