Market Action

QQQ – Today we gapped lower on economic news and closed strong after a test of the 21ema. Leaders also acted well. This was a great response to a stress test as mentioned could happen the past few reports.

The expectation based on the close and recent action is sideways for higher. Looking for a pop above the 50 sma,

Bulls want to see us break out higher
Bears want to reverse down off the 50sma area and break below the 21ema

Market Thoughts & Focus

Love the action today, exactly what we want to see with the market shaking off negative news. Now we have to see follow through higher to confirm it. Leaders are acting well and continue to develop.

Earnings season will be a good test as well and could provide some great gapper opportunities up the right sides of bases
