Nasdaq Forecast for October 19, 2026

EWM Team1 min read

Nasdaq’s four-hour chart shows 29,583.25. Since October 16, the decline extended to 29,066.22, now labelled v and the endpoint of (i). The revised count places the initial leading diagonal within i of (i). A corrective rebound in (ii) is projected toward approximately 30,300 before renewed weakness. Breaking 29,066.22 would support bearish continuation; exceeding 31,400.63 would invalidate the proposed wave (ii) recovery.

Nasdaq Forecast for October 19, 2026

  • Trend: Corrective rebound within a bearish structure.
  • Trading Range: No established sideways range.
  • Wave Structure: i–ii–iii–iv–v completes the proposed (i); (ii) developing.
  • Support: 29,066.22.
  • Resistance: Around 30,000, then the projected 30,300 area.

What is happening to Nasdaq now?
Nasdaq is recovering after a fresh low. The count treats this as a corrective bounce, with the broader bearish scenario still active below 31,400.63.

Nasdaq stands at 29,918.75 on the four-hour chart after a sharp decline from 31,400.63. The count places the completed b wave at that peak, followed by a bearish sequence. Wave (i) appears as a leading diagonal, while the subsequent decline extends through (iii). The rebound labelled (iv) may be nearing completion, leaving scope for (v) toward the 29,400 area. Breaking the (iii) low would support this continuation; exceeding the (iv) high would challenge its proposed completion.

  • Trading Range: Approximately 29,400–30,100.
  • Wave Structure: (i)–(ii)–(iii) labelled; (iv) potentially complete, with (v) anticipated.
