NQ & ES After Hours Comment Thursday 16-10-2025E-mini Nasdaq-100 FuturesCME_MINI:NQ1!FTAKASObserving the recent price action, it’s clear that price failed to find meaningful support within those blue zones — however, the sensitivity and reaction around these levels were evident. The main mistake today was overlooking the fact that, just above the previous day’s highs — which the NQ managed to take out while the ES didn’t — there was a Fair Value Gap (FVG) on the daily timeframe. This area could easily have acted as a resistance zone and triggered a full reversal. At the same time, the YM had two equal lows sitting just beneath current price, marking a strong liquidity pool. Overall, it was a poor analysis day on my part — I was off, even though I did mention there would be short setups emerging. Hopefully, you recognized along the way that there was no valid long confirmation, and managed to stay out of losing trades.
