Nasdaq 100: The Pattern I See Everywhere, Very Bullish (Technical Analysis)

Summary

  • I've noticed a recurring inverse head and shoulders pattern in high-beta tech stocks, signaling potential bullish reversals; the pattern is noticeable in the Nasdaq 100 and the QQQ ETF.
  • I break down the pattern, where I see it in the chart, and how the current momentum indicators support a bullish take on QQQ.
  • Despite macro concerns (the major bear driver to the thesis), the chart is optimistic, signalling a potential for a 15% upward move in six months.
  • The inverse head and shoulders pattern is a classic bullish indicator, and its broad appearance suggests continued upside potential for high-beta tech names.
  • Beware: if volatility strikes, we may retest all the way down to the 520 mark, where I see the new resistance forming.
