On Sunday I published my first Analysis Week breakdown. Short version of what I said there: I was anticipating a bearish week on NQ, with a retracement up on Monday and Tuesday into the bearish daily fair value gap, where the 17 level sits.
This is the mid-week update — because so far, it’s playing out.
What happened: Monday 3, Tuesday 17
Monday went to 3. Tuesday pushed up into 17 — right into the bearish daily FVG from Sunday’s analysis. The retracement I was anticipating is exactly what price delivered.
New information: a fresh 1-hour inversion
Since the push into 17, a fresh 1-hour inversion has printed — a bearish one. You can see it marked on the chart (1h-iFVG).
What I’m anticipating for Wednesday and Thursday
My anticipation: bearish — maybe down to the weekly swing low.
For Wednesday itself, I see two ways it can go:
Price sweeps Tuesday’s high first, and then turns down — or
it drops immediately, because of that 1-hour inversion.
I’m not sure which — and the reason is that the inversion didn’t happen in a kill zone. So we will see.
No guarantee — this can work out or not. The levels were mapped on Sunday; price is simply moving between them, and I’m following my process.
