NAS100 (NASDAQ) 4 HGOUR (CFD): Still too early to call a low
While It is too early to say the low is in, downside risk will cool off if it can stay above 27K.
To change the picture, 28K, the 4 hour trendline and 28336 would need to be taken out.
Otherwise, it is consolidation or retracement unless the low is taken out.

NAS100 (NASDAQ)Â 1 HOUR :(CFD): Freefall
There didn;t appear to be a specific headline that saw stocks go into freefall other than noting chipmakers and AI infrastructure shares are driving the selloff.
Qualcomm added to the pressure, falling about 10% before the open after disappointing smartphone chip sales reflected sluggish demand and lower Apple-related revenue. Meanwhile, concerns that opposition to data center development could intensify following the midterms are weighing on companies supplying chips, servers and power for the AI buildout.
NAS100 needs to regain 27500, at a minimum, or risk is for 27000

NAS100 (NASDAQ) 4 HOUR (CFD): Watch 28000
Tech on the defensive again cutting short the NAS100 rally. This has seen 28000 briefly broken  although it is just a pivotal round number with key support at around 27000, a target that bulls do not want to see broken.
Watch the reaction to Apple earnings and the close vs 28000, above which needs to trade to cool off the risk now that stops have been run below it.

NAS100 (NASDAQ) 4 HOUR (CFD): What it will take…
Making a bid to break downside risk but to do so, 29935 and the key 4-hour trendline along with a firm move above 30K would be needed to confirm. Otherwise, needs to hold above 29130 to keep the downside in check. In any case, how it closes the day will be more important than how it starts out following the FOMC decision and key earnings reports (Alphabet and Microsoft).

NAS100 (NASDAQ) DAILY: On the brink
Failure to regain 30K has setup a fresh run at the downside as the tech led selloff dragged other indices along with it ( COREWEAVE SHARES FALL 12% TO BRING WEEKLY SELLOFF TO 25%)
As the chart shows, the break of 30100 put 28755 (CFD) on the radar, a level bulls do not want to see broken as it would open a big void on the downside.

NAS100 (NASDAQ) DAILY: History lesson
As posted earlier, history showing NAS retracements have proved short-lived and followed by news highs is again being put to the test.
To give history a chance to repeat,as a first step 30000-100+ would need to be regained and then see 30686 + the trendline broken.

NAS100 (NASDAQ) 4 HOUR: The dilemma
Here’s the dilemma…Momentum shifting to the downside vs. a history of short-lived retracements followed by new highs.Looking at the chart, support starts at 30595 tested (low 30575), above which focus stays on 31K. The level bulls do not want to see broken is 30000-30100. Price action suggests there may have been some portfolio shifts from stocks (down) into bonds (up. yields down)

NAS100 (NASDAQ) 4 HOUR: Support vs. FIBOS
So far, retreat from the record high has held dead on at 38.2% (30895). For momentum to build, there needs to be a clean break below 30916. Otherwise, downside contained and 31K remains pivotal. Note, US bond yields well off earlier highs (flatter curve) so far giving some modest support.

NAS100 (NASDAQ) 4 HOUR: Unchartered waters
This time a new record intra-day high seems set to be accompanied by a new record closing high. This leaves 31K as pivotal and needing to become support for a new leg into unchartered territory where the next pivotal level is 32K.
If not, support is below the market at 30584-30725 (on this CFD chart).
