Asia Open Briefing — Thu, Oct 22

      Published October 22, 2026 · Asia session open · ES & NQ futures, translated to SPY/QQQ
    

Leaning bearish 42/100

Tone

Both ES and NQ are chopping horizontally near session lows following sharp earlier liquidations. Price action into the overnight open reflects consolidation above recent intraday bases rather than active continuation. The immediate posture remains heavy while trades linger beneath previous breakdown shelves.
