Nasdaq-100 Trust (NASDAQ: QQQQ) Pulls Back From New Highs Says Market Timer Frank Kollar
December 6, 2006 (FinancialWire) (By Frank Kollar)
The exchange-traded fund Nasdaq-100 Trust (NASDAQ: QQQQ) briefly traded at new 2006 highs on Tuesday, but then pulled back before the close to end the day at $44.42. Several months back we wrote, “…new 2006 highs for the Qs are only a matter of time.”
The current rally was not unexpected. Remember that on June 15, June 29 and July 19 the market had three huge rally days that had greater than 9 to 1 up/down volume on the NYSE. This is a rare event that has a solid history of predicting higher prices over the coming year.
The Qs closed at $44.46 two weeks ago. Now the Q’s need to close decisively above $45.42, about 2% higher than Tuesday’s close, to break above resistance. If they do, they will likely make a run for $48.11 over the coming weeks.
The Fibtimer.com (http://www.fibtimer.com) ETF Timing Strategy currently has a position in the QQQQs.
