NQ holds near-term bottom@11800;rally into FMOC bef a final dump

Long
CME_MINI:NQ1!   NASDAQ 100 E-mini Futures
With TSLA, AAPL & NVDA rallying on a risk-on Monday, NQ seems to be making positive divergences similar to June but this needs some follow-thru this week. It is holding 11800 with Friday”s hammer candle suggesting a shortterm low for the month. MACD also crossed into green territory. Another Diamond reversal pattern MAY be forming similar to June?
BULLISH SCENARIO: My Elliott wave count would suggest a June low is in with the ABC correction ended. BUT I may be wrong logically with a 75 to 100 basis-point rate hike coming in Sept even with the market already pricing in a 75 pt hike. BUT MARKET IS IRRATIONAL. NQ may rally into Sept FOMC rate hike near 13k & then make a final dump on last week of Sept from an overbought condition. (NQ has to go above 13740 to confirm a higher high) No one knows where the final bottom will be before a Santa Claus rally. Possible supports are ma50, 12200 to remain within the upchannel or perhaps a retest of 11800 with the HHHL remaining intact.
BEARISH CASE: NQ may rally into Sept FOMC but still comes back down to make a lower low than either
11800 or the June low. In this case, the positive divergence may extend up to an October rally. If 11800 or the June low of 11068 breaks, then the next stop will be the 10900 to 10500 yellow zone.
