Weekly Analysis and Reaction Locations [2026-07-20]E-mini Nasdaq-100 FuturesCME_MINI:NQ1!pavlusrockulusNQ violated the swing low, which is an early confirmation that price might continue lower mid-term. A break — a close below the violation — is still needed to confirm the continuation, but the analysis already gives me a valid pullback target. Right at that pullback target sits an algorithmic reaction zone, which adds weight to the location. The current downtrend's volume profile also has its POC around the same pullback target. Volume, the value-based reaction zone, and the algorithmic reaction zone all lining up at one location gives me a high-probability spot for a swing trade. PD reference points add more weight to the directional read. A break higher puts the high volume node in as the main reference, with the new swing high as invalidation for continuation lower. A break lower confirms the continuation and marks the upper PD reference as sub-structure high. Monday's high is the reference I'm using to monitor the pullback.
