US100 Weekly Outlook: Central Bank Chaos & The Stage 4 Markdown

245
The macro narrative for the NAS100 heading into this week is dominated by a volatile cocktail of geopolitical risk and central bank tension 🏦.

With the Iran conflict escalating and threats traded over the weekend, market chatter suggests a definitive shift toward Risk-Off sentiment 📉.

Online communities are leaning heavily Bearish, expecting further liquidations as the index hit a 14-week low. While Fed Chair Powell’s recent rhetoric reinforces a "higher for longer" stance due to persistent energy-driven inflation, retail consensus is currently crowded on the short side, which often precedes a "Squeeze the Shorts" bounce before the primary markdown resumes.

We are seeing a clear Stage 4 Markdown phase on the H1 and H4 timeframes 📉.

Market structure is defined by lower highs and lower lows below a sharply declining 5-day moving average. community chatter is calling for an immediate "V-bottom," but Dow Theory suggests that until we reclaim the declining 5-day MA and build a higher low, the sellers maintain absolute structural control.

The recent undercut of the 23,750 level is being viewed as a "Liquidity Grab" by some, but without an immediate reclaim of "Value," it remains a trap for late dip-buyers.

Key Zone: Confluence is sitting heavily in the 24,000 to 24,100 region 📉. This zone aligns with the 50% Fibonacci retracement level visible on the chart ($24,002$) and the 61.8% golden pocket ($24,103$).

Auction Market Theory identifies this as the current Point of Control (POC) and the upper limit of the "POI" box, representing a heavy supply node where "Trapped Buyers" are likely to sell at breakeven, reinforcing resistance.

We are currently trading at the low of the range, probing the $23,600$ support tier.

I am watching for a "run on liquidity" to sweep the late sellers I’m seeing across various forums, potentially spiking price back into the 24,100 POI 🧹. My view is that any rally into the declining VWAP or the 24,200 handle is a "Sucker Rally" meant to be faded, as long as the 5-day MA remains a ceiling.

My Trade Plan 🎯

Bias: Short / Neutral. I am exercising extreme patience, waiting for a corrective bounce to exhaust itself before joining the dominant markdown.

Entry Protocol: I will look for a short entry if the price rallies into the 24,100 - 24,200 POI zone and shows a "failed reclaim" of the daily VWAP. Confirmation is a break of the micro-low following a test of the declining 5-day MA.
