    What Is the US100? Understanding the NASDAQ 100 Index

    The US100 is the ticker symbol used by most retail brokers and charting platforms to represent the NASDAQ 100 index. It tracks the 100 largest non-financial companies listed on the NASDAQ exchange with nearly all of them technology or tech-adjacent leaders.

    Companies like Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia, Amazon, Meta, and Alphabet drive the US100. That concentration makes it one of the most dynamic indices in the world. A single earnings report from a mega-cap tech stock can move the entire index by hundreds of points.

    This is what makes US100 trading so compelling and demanding. High reward potential exists, but so does high volatility. Traders who succeed in this market use structure, not emotion.

    You can also track price action in real time using TradingView US100, one of the most popular charting platforms for index traders worldwide.

    US100 Trading Hours: When Does the Market Open?

    Understanding US100 trading hours is critical to maximizing your edge. The NASDAQ 100 follows the standard US stock exchange schedule, but as a CFD or futures product, it often has extended sessions.

    US100 Cash CFD Trading Hours

    The US 100 cash CFD typically trades during regular US market hours:

    Regular Session: 9:30 AM – 4:00 PM ET (Monday – Friday)

    Pre-Market: 4:00 AM – 9:30 AM ET (varies by broker)

    After-Hours: 4:00 PM – 8:00 PM ET (varies by broker)

    US100 Open Time

    The US100 open time is 9:30 AM Eastern Time. This is the highest-volatility window of the day, like volume surges, spreads tighten, and price action accelerates. The first 30 minutes and the final 30 minutes of the regular session are historically the most active.

    Many professional traders at 369 Trading Room focus on their setups around the US100 open time for exactly this reason.

    US100 Cash Trading Hours: Key Windows to Watch

    9:30 AM ET – Open: Highest volatility, news-driven moves

    10:00–11:30 AM ET: Initial trend establishment window

    12:00–2:00 PM ET: Midday consolidation, often range-bound

    2:00–4:00 PM ET: Afternoon trend resumption, Fed announcements

    8:30 AM ET: Pre-market economic data releases (CPI, NFP, GDP)

    Financial markets: gold, stock ticker, city lights.
    Gold bars stacked in a vault
    US30 trading strategies for consistent intraday wins

    Pro tip: The first 30–60 minutes after the US100 open time (9:30–10:30 AM ET) is typically the highest-volume window of the day. This is when the strongest breakouts and reversals occur.

    Check real-time session status and overlaps on TradingView US100 to align your trades with peak liquidity windows.

    US100 Trading Strategies That Work in the Live Market

    There is no single 'best' US100 trading strategy; context determines approach. Below are the core strategies for 369 Trading Room deploys based on live market conditions.

    same thinking - same results

    Breakout Trading

    The US100 regularly forms tight consolidation zones before explosive moves. Traders watch the US100 live chart for price compression at key levels, then position for the breakout. Volume confirmation is critical; a breakout without volume often fails.

    Trend-Following

    During strong trend sessions, the US100 creates clear higher highs and higher lows on intraday charts. Trend-following entries use pullbacks to structure or move averages as entry points. The TradingView US100 chart makes these setups easy to identify visually.

    Mean Reversion

    When the US100 overextends its average during the cash session, experienced traders look for snap-back opportunities. This works best when the broader market sentiment is neutral, and there is no major macro catalyst driving the move.

    same thinking - same results

    Opening Range Breakout

    The first 15–30 minutes after the US100 open time establishes the day's opening range. A decisive break above or below this range with volume confirmation signals the likely intraday direction. 369 Trading Room actively trades this setup every session.

    End-of-Day Positioning

    In the final hour before the US100 cash session close (3:00–4:00 PM ET), institutional activity often drives decisive moves. Experienced traders' position with the institutional flow, using tight risk parameters and defined targets.

    Financial markets: gold, stock ticker, city lights.

    Risk Management in US100 Trading

    US100 can move 50–200+ points in a single session. Without proper risk management, even a single bad trade can eliminate days of gains. 369 Trading Room teaches and enforces disciplined risk management in every live session.

    Core risk rules for US100 trading:

    Never risk more than 1–2% of your account on a single US100 trade

    Set your stop-loss before entering — not after the trade starts moving

    Define your take-profit target before entry so you do not exit early out of fear

    Reduce position size during high-volatility events (Fed announcements, CPI releases, earnings)

    Avoid overtrading — quality setups on the US100 live chart beat quantity every time

    Keep a trade journal — review your US100 trades weekly to spot patterns in your decisions


    Every member of the 369 Trading Room operates under these same risk principles. The goal is not to win every trade; it is to protect capital, stay consistent, and grow over time.

    "Transformed"

    In early 2015 I was searching for a second income, an extra wage to help pay the bills. I’d had a go at MLM but found all the extra work time consuming. I started looking into binary options and online trading. During the research I came across a review aobut this room. Straight away I was impressed but wanted to do some more research and over the next couple of weeks I found myself drawn to the site on a few occasions and in May 2015 I decided to give it a go.

    "Can't Wait"

    I have been in many, MANY things in my 40 plus years of searching for the right opportunity.  Thank GOD I was lead here!!  NOTHING better!  GOD bless MT and for all those who help you in this room.  Being personally mentored by people making millions is amazing. Price is incredibly LOW for the ROI, but don’t tell.   Along with the fortune that can be made here is the positive atmosphere and culture that are conducive to personal growth & self-improvement.  I am ecstatic to come every day and have a hard time when it is the weekend.  I can’t wait for Mondays!

    "Delicious"

    I found this class by accident. I was already doing some forex and binary when I found MT’s site. Getting texts when to buy and when to sell on forex news from the other service I was using was a complete joke.  I couldn’t stand the waiting and wondering if we were getting a text or not. It always made me wonder where are they're getting the signals. How did they know this and why wasnt it more consistent. One thing for sure they did put alot of hype to get you too join. Then I found a video of MT’s session. Read more...
