      Published November 4, 2026 · US session open · ES & NQ futures, translated to SPY/QQQ
    

Leaning bullish 75/100

Tone

Futures are holding steady near session highs following an overnight expansion, with ES consolidating right below 7,685 and NQ pressing into 28,340. The market structure remains firmly upward on the wider 15-minute timeframe after bottoming near 7,490, though shorter-term price action is beginning to churn into local resistance. Headline-driven overnight sentiment surrounding US political developments has supported the bid, but upside momentum is flattening into the cash open.
