The Weekly NASDAQ chart
- The week is a bull bar with prominent tails closing above the high of last week.
- This week’s close is lower than the close of the 8-19 bull doji from 4 weeks back.
- Bulls need a big breakout bar next week or a series of non-climactic bull bars over the next several weeks like in April to convince traders that the market is likely to go to a new high.
- Bears want the opposite. They want next week to be a bear bar or a doji bar with a close below 8-19 bar. They can then try for sideways to down leg like back in March.
