No big tech fireworks.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Overnight Session<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Right at the 6:00 PM futures open, the Nasdaq exploded upward, riding the momentum from Nvidia\u2019s strong earnings. Our robot wasted no time, immediately flipping long. For the rest of the night, the Nasdaq held its ground around 25,190, showing impressive strength.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Morning Session<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>As Europe opened, sellers showed up and the market slipped off the highs.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>At 7:00 AM, Nasdaq slid to 25,096 as traders waited for the big jobs data. Then 8:30 AM hit, data flood time:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Jobless claims: 1,964 thousand<br>Slightly above the previous 1,957 thousand<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Initial jobless claims: 220 thousand<br>Lower than the previous 232 thousand<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Nonfarm payrolls: 119 thousand<br>A sharp turnaround from the previous minus 2 thousand<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Unemployment rate: 4.4%,<br>Slightly above the previous 4.3%<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The mix of good and bad numbers triggered immediate volatility. Our long position hit target and closed for a profit, bringing realized gains to 371 dollars.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>At 9:30 AM, the US stock session kicked off. Market became volatile. By 10:00 AM, suddenly the market took a sharp dive. Then around 10:30 AM, everything unraveled at once:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u2022 Bitcoin crashed below 87,000<br>\u2022 Nvidia tanked to 182<br>\u2022 Tesla slid under 400<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Nasdaq dropped hard, giving back all of yesterday\u2019s Nvidia-driven strength. Our long position was stopped out during the flush, and a short position was entered.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Afternoon Session<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Selling pressure continued as traders reevaluated AI valuations, and many Nvidia investors locked in profits.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Around 1:00 PM, the market finally caught a bounce. Our robot jumped back in with a long position.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>But at 2:00 PM, another wave of selling hit. Our long was stopped again, trimming realized profit down to 339 dollars. The Nasdaq eventually closed at 24,710, roughly 200 points below yesterday\u2019s high. The rest of the afternoon was slow and choppy, with almost no upside momentum.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>After Hours<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A very quiet after-hours session, no tech earnings to shake things up. and that wrapped up a very busy Thursday.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Summary<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Nasdaq opened strong, flipped mid-session, and ultimately gave back everything from the Nvidia earnings rally. Despite the turbulence, our algorithm still managed to lock in 339 dollars of realized profit on the day.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today is Thursday, November 20th, 2025, and this is your Daily Nasdaq Futures Recap, the show where we break down every move, every catalyst, and every single trade our algorithm fired off throughout the session.
