Here’s the QQQ daily chart showing what was likely a momentum-fueled overshoot of the key 284.38 resistance level on Friday although a solid close above that level this week would be bullish, especially on the heels of last month’s bullish engulfing candlesticks & divergent low on the major stock indices. With the very short-term indicators overbought & divergences forming on the 60-minute charts of the stock futures, I favor at least a tradable pullback today and/or into tomorrow, even if we get a marginal new high today.
