[stocks] Market Minutes – Looking for $QQQ Short Entry on the Bounce

Below is a past issue of Morpheus Market Minutes, your free daily market analysis and top picks for swing trading stocks and crypto.

Day 3 of a new rally attempt in the stock market produced an inside day on lighter volume, right at resistance of the 8-day ema in the Nasdaq 100 ETF ($QQQ):  

If $QQQ moves above the two-day high, it could lead to a test of next resistance at the declining 20-day EMA.  

On the chart above, notice how the 20-day EMA has perfectly acted as resistance on previous bounces within the current downtrend.

Although stocks are in short-term bounce mode, the Nasdaq 100 remains firmly in a downtrend UNLESS the index convincingly reclaims support of its 20-day EMA on higher volume.

Regardless, we trade what we see–not what we think!

As such, we are now stalking $SQQQ (Nasdaq 100 short ETF) for a low-risk entry point on a bounce into strength.

We will send Wagner Daily members an alert with our exact entry and stop prices if we see an ideal entry point today.
