This video covers the short-term outlook of the Nasdaq 100 via the intraday charts on QQQ and several of the top components of the $NDX. I recorded this video around 12:30pm ET and so by the time some of you are able to view this video, the QQQ will have either played out as discussed here or not. With that being said, I believe there are several educational takeaways from this video, regardless of whether my near-term scenario discussed here plays out or not.

Along with the near-term outlook for QQQ, the charts of the following top components of the Nasdaq 100 are also covered: AAPL, GOOG, MSFT, FB, AMZN & GILD.
