NQ/QQQ Weekly Levels (Dec4-8)

3 Dis 2023

The market traded at key resistance for the 2nd week in a row just below the July highs. Price has been holding the highs but feels very extended and is due for at least a mild pull back. That said price often needs and exhaustive push higher before reversing so a spike move into the July high first is not out of the question. It's notable that DOW, Russel & S&P finished the week stronger than Nasdaq and breath improved with another strong week for small caps.
