🧠 NASDAQ 100 (NQ) Weekly Outlook – July 8–12, 2025

📍Liquidity Sweep Before Expansion?

After the rejection near 23,100, NQ appears to be entering a rebalancing phase, with potential downside liquidity grabs before any continuation to the upside.


📊 Key Technical Levels:

  • 🔸 High: 23,102.50 → Major buy-side liquidity zone.

  • 🔸 Equal Lows: 22,675 – 22,725 → Potential draw on liquidity.

  • 🔸 0.75–1.00 retracement zone (from the recent bullish leg) overlaps with a clear demand area.

  • 🔸 Multiple open Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) remain above and below current price.


📈 Primary Scenario:

Bullish bias, after a potential liquidity sweep below the Equal Lows.

🔻 A downside sweep into the 22,675–22,725 zone would open up opportunities to go long on bullish confirmation, targeting:

  • 22,975 (FVG fill)

  • 23,050 (intermediate resistance)

  • 23,102+ (liquidity above previous high)


⚠️ Alternate Scenario:

If the market fails to sweep the lows and begins pushing higher early in the week, I’ll look for breakout-retest setups above 22,975 to participate in continuation plays.


🎯 Weekly Game Plan:

  • Plan A: Wait for a liquidity sweep below the equal lows, then look for a bullish reaction and structure shift to go long.

  • Plan B: In the absence of a sweep, only consider longs above 22,975 after confirmation of strength.


📌 This outlook is based on price action, market structure, liquidity zones, and FVG analysis. Not financial advice.
