Nasdaq 100 - A potential bull trap in the futures market?
מעודכן
The Nasdaq 100 index showed some relief yesterday and made a higher high since its low on 19th May 2022. However, smaller time frames suggest that the willingness of market participants to buy at rising prices diminishes. Therefore, this leaves us to speculate whether the Nasdaq 100 index is getting positioned for another leg down. At the same time, the daily volume continues to increase which is bearish; also because of that, we still remain bearish on the index and expect it to make new lows. Because of that, we would like to set a new short-term price target for NQ1! at 12 000 USD and a medium-term price target at 11 900 USD (due to become short-term after 12 000 USD is taken out).
Our price targets for QQQ remain at 285 USD and 280 USD.
