Nota

NQ_F consolidated above the Aug 18th Low on Monday getting held up by the mega caps. Today there has been no follow through. Price has broken below the Aug 18th Low which is bearish. Spiking yields stressing the entire market. Potential retest of last week low and possible full compound correction to the Aug 16th high if price can not reclaim the Aug 18th low.

Nota

NQ_F Tested last week low and bounced back above the Aug 18th low. Currently trading in a large sideways consolidation zone. May trade in this range untill Non-Farm Payrolls tomorrow. NQ cannot trend until outside the box. Key levels remain the same.
