4HR NQ – Attempting a New DirectionE-mini Nasdaq-100 FuturesCME_MINI:NQ1!WIZARDTRENDS4HR NQ – Attempting a New Direction (For Educational Purposes Only) This analysis is shared strictly for educational purposes and is not financial advice. It is intended to illustrate chart-reading techniques, structure mapping, and scenario planning. Bullish Scenario – Potential Uptrend Zone The chart outlines a clearly defined uptrend continuation area: A green expansion zone highlights the upside target region toward 25,891.50. A –1% risk bubble shows the approximate drawdown tolerance for a long bias. A break and sustained move above 25,591.50 (white dotted line) would strengthen bullish momentum. The yellow dashed line above represents a major resistance area that the market must reclaim to shift direction convincingly. Bearish Scenario – Potential Downtrend Zone The lower side of the chart maps the downside continuation possibility: A red zone defines the bearish target area toward 24,704.75. A –1% risk bubble marks the downside tolerance for a bearish setup. Losing the central grey zone opens the path toward the deeper support band, signaling continuation of downward pressure. Pattern & Symmetry Structure (Educational Highlight) On the left side, the chart features a harmonic/symmetry-based analytical framework used for pattern recognition: A boxed structure spans 22 bars, with two vertical 8-bar segments forming time symmetry. Two 2.14% price swings mark the upper and lower rotational boundaries. Curved arcs and diagonals are used to visualize price rotation, volatility compression, and potential reversal points. This section is included to demonstrate how symmetry and measured movements can support probabilistic forecasting in technical analysis. Neutral Decision Zone (Market Pivot Area) The central grey band represents the equilibrium zone, where buyers and sellers are in temporary balance. Price is currently interacting with this zone, making it the key decision point. Orange blocks above and below may indicate smaller supply/demand pockets or micro-imbalances. A directional break from this zone typically sets the next short-term trend. Summary Market at a Critical Turning Point Above the grey zone → momentum favors the green uptrend zone. Below the grey zone → momentum favors the red downtrend zone.
