📢 Power Hour Update for Subscribers – Market Testing Key Zones Late in the Day
📊 Power Pivots:
$ES: 5655
$NQ: 20007
📌 Overview – Rejection, Retest, & What's Next
Price rallied strongly again today, hitting our 5669–5684 target zone, topping out at 5682, and then stopping on a dime. What followed was a sharp 50-point drop straight into our 5630s support zone, showing how fragile upside moves can be at extended levels.
This type of movement is characteristic of exhaustion at extremes, but also shows how quickly bulls defend. With price recovering and hanging near 5640s, the daily close becomes critical.
📌 Levels to Watch Into the Close
✅ Key Support Zone (for Bulls):
5630–5639: Buyers must defend this zone to keep upside continuation hopes alive.
If price closes above 5639, it gives bulls another green light heading into Friday.
❌ Key Resistance Still in Play:
5684 remains unbroken, and today’s fast rejection from 5682 was a warning.
A daily close below 5630 could signal failed breakout and trap longs.
📌 $NQ Insight – Value Zone Activity
$NQ has been filling out the 19971–20149 zone, as expected.
As long as price stays within or above 19971, bias remains bullish.
A close above 20149 could lead to a sharp squeeze into 20500+.
A close below 19900 shifts structure and could see a revisit to 19636 quickly.
📚 Educational Insight – The Timing Paradox
There are 86,400 seconds in a trading day.
You may identify the area or condition for a big reversal…
But you will never predict the exact second the market will turn.
That’s why it’s important to:
Focus on location and confirmation, not prediction.
Avoid chasing – let the market confirm your setup.
Use stops and scaling to stay in control.
🔚 Final Thoughts for Power Hour
Watch 5639 into the close. A hold above = more upside likely.
If sellers gain traction again and price drops below 5630, then caution is warranted.
The speed of the pullback from 5682 reminds us not to get complacent.
$NQ above 20000 still supports the squeeze narrative—but weak closes will reset the deck.
✅ Stay sharp—reaction at close will guide tomorrow’s open.
✅ Stay nimble—trades work fast in this market, and fail faster.
