US Open Briefing — Thu, Oct 8

Published October 8, 2026 · US session open · ES & NQ futures, translated to SPY/QQQ
Leaning bearish 42/100
Tone

Futures are stabilizing in the lower half of the multi-day range after a sharp rollover from the weekly highs. Both ES and NQ carved out lower highs on Wednesday and traded down into prior demand pockets, where immediate downside momentum has begun to stall. The open tests whether buyers can defend these consolidation lows or if trend continuation downward unfolds.

Key levels — futures & ETF equivalents
ES support 7800.00 (SPY ~$780.00)
ES resistance 7855.00 (SPY ~$785.50)
NQ support 31100.00 (QQQ ~$758.50)
NQ resistance 31400.00 (QQQ ~$765.85)

The session macro slate is relatively quiet with FOMC Member Waller speaking early, leaving equity index flow primarily driven by technical structure and positioning.
