NQ SD+SR: Where Demand Meets Support, Supply Meets ResistanceE-mini Nasdaq-100 Futures (Dec 2026)CME_MINI:NQZ2026SAFE_CAPITALTwo methods. One disciplined decision. This 15-minute NQ study isolates SAFE Capital Supply Demand + Support Resistance Alignment. Green marks demand/support below price; red marks supply/resistance overhead. The purpose is to identify meaningful areas and evaluate the response—not to treat every box as an entry. • Supply/demand comes from a compact base followed by displacement. Support/resistance comes from confirmed swing pivots. A pivot requires right-side bars to close, so confirmation has a delay. • Bullish alignment requires demand and support to overlap by positive price width. Bearish alignment requires supply and resistance. Each distinct timeframe counts once, even when it contributes both methods. • Bullish scenario: a return to green, followed by a hold and confirmed recovery in structure, can support a bounce scenario. Distance from the current price is not a reason to chase. • Bearish scenario: rejection at red followed by a confirmed loss of local support can support a pullback scenario. Acceptance above the zone weakens that thesis. • Invalidation: this configuration uses a source-timeframe close through the far edge. Supply/demand does not flip; optional S/R role reversal is disabled here. • Contingency: if price cuts through the area, the retest is unclear, or the stop is too wide for your risk budget, skip it. Wait for new information. Never increase risk just to make the signal fit. Display: both directions, combined groups, minimum two distinct timeframes and at least one contributor from each method. Fill transparency is 70%; markers and monitor are hidden. Combined labels can refer to different portions of a group; not every price inside a box is shared by every source. Understand the information, define invalidation, and protect your capital first. Educational study only; no executed trade or performance claim.
