Market Session Analysis

European pre-market, the overnight Globex session, pivot levels, the macroeconomic calendar: the goal is to identify the zones that will shape the session before it begins. This section covers CAC, DAX, Nasdaq (NQ), S&P 500 (ES), Dow Jones (YM), and Russell 2000 (RTY) futures, along with gold, WTI crude oil, and Bitcoin. For each: the key levels, the day’s macro context, and market psychology—no signals, no promises. I analyze them as an active trader since 1994, specialized in CME futures, although I trade only the Nasdaq future (NQ) and its micro version (MNQ) myself: a clean read meant to prepare your day in a few minutes, not to predict the unpredictable. You’ll find the session analyses here day after day, to enter the market with a clear framework rather than the noise of notifications.
