Danger Zone? Nasdaq 100
Are we entering a “Danger Zone” right now?
The phrase “Highway to the Danger Zone“ (theme song here) became popular due to the movie “Top Gun,” starring Tom Cruise.
I share information with several types of investors…long-term (retirement/401k plans) that don’t move monies often, (which “harvested” at the April highs). Medium term investors, that feel comfortable moving monies once a month/6 weeks and shorter-term investors that are open to adjustments frequently, yet are NOT day traders. I am not interested in day trading!!!
This post would be for the shorter-term audience, that are aggressive and open to “attempting to score on defense!”
The NDX 100 is at the top of its trading range and the VXN has created a falling wedge. During this trading channel, when the NDX is at the top of the range, wedges have formed, followed by lower prices in the NDX.
For any medium-term investors that are long the NDX, stay long and keep the 3% stop in play! For those aggressive short-term investors that are comfortable attempting to score on defense, take the inverse position here (Buy PSQ). Momentum and trends remain a positive so far. This is totally a “Power of the Pattern” play for short-term investors.
If this pattern really forces the NDX lower and changes it momentum, I will follow-up with more suggestions per scoring on defense.
