The Weekly NASDAQ chart
- The week is a bear trend bar with a small tail below.
- This week reversed most of the bull bars of the past 3 weeks.
- It has also closed the breakout gap with the July high. The body gap with the July high close is still open.
- Next couple of weeks is important – Can bears create a follow-through bear bar next week closing below this week’s low?
- Can bears create two bear closes far below the July body gap?
- Bulls want the opposite – They want next week to be a bull bar or a doji bar and keep the body gap open.
- The last monthly report had mentioned that it is unlikely for January to be a bull bar with a low above last month’s low – creating a bull micro-channel.
- So, its likely that January is a bear bar, or an inside bull bar or a bar with the low lower than the December low.
The Daily NASDAQ chart
- Friday is a doji bar closing around the mid-point of the bar.
- Monday was a trading holiday for New Year’s Day.
- Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday were good trend bear bars closing below the prior bar’s low.
- The market is back below the daily exponential moving average (EMA) with two closes below it.
- It is a deep pullback to the move up in December.
- It is back at the top of the trading range from July and November.
- Given the strong leg down this week, there will likely be another leg down.
- Bulls would like to keep open the bull body gap with November high close.
- There is a cluster of support below the current price shown by the green lines on the chart.
