Nasdaq Week Ahead: PCE, Employment, Micron and Oil

PCE inflation, employment data, Micron and oil created several independent sources of volatility. The note treated them as context for risk, not as direct long or short instructions.

The accompanying MNQ chart was a static 4-hour capture from 28 September 2026. The broader structure was rising while the immediate move was corrective. The analysis used zones and acceptance rather than false point precision.

The operating principle was explicit: I do not need to guess where Nasdaq will go. I need to know where my reading changes if price confirms or invalidates a zone.
