Trading System Signals on 03-10-2026

The institutional option sellers continue to contain the Nasdaq as it continues to return to 25,000 on a daily basis. It feels a bit "gamed". Any true price discovery at a much different level could happen rapidly as positions are unwound when it occurs and be more of a "digital" move happening very quickly.


In the Nasdaq 100 index, the lows on Monday to the highs on Tuesday morning was about 860 points. The distance from Tuesday mornings highs to the all-time highs on October 29, 2025 is another 1032 points. In 1.5 sessions, the Nasdaq 100 rebounded to nearly the half-way point from the lows on the year (Monday morning) to all-time highs.



There seems to be some stealth energy in the markets that could generate several surges higher (like we had on Monday afternoon) before the end of the week. If we see some geopolitical resolution or geopolitical stress, the Nasdaq 100 could separate from the 25,000 level in one direction or another.


There were losses across the board today in all portfolios with stock indexes. It's interesting to see such a range bound stock market with a persistently higher VIX.
