It will be exciting to see whether it manages to continue gaining or take a minor break for the next few days. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 1.76% from a day low at $315.60 to a day high of $321.17. The price has risen in 7 of the last 10 days and is up by 5.1% over the past 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day along with the price, which is a positive technical sign, and, in total, 4 million more shares were traded than the day before. In total, 62 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $19.90 billion.

The ETF lies in the middle of a wide and strong rising trend in the short term and a further rise within the trend is signaled.Given the current short-term trend, the ETF is expected to rise 11.78% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $332.24 and $374.32 at the end of this 3-month period.

QQQ

The QQQ ETF holds buy signals from both short and long-term moving averages giving a positive forecast for the stock. Also, there is a general buy signal from the relation between the two signals where the short-term average is above the long-term average. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $312.26 and $301.61. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Friday, March 10, 2023, and so far it has risen 11.22%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume is rising along with the price. This is considered to be a good technical signal.

QQQ finds support from accumulated volume at $306.81 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

This ETF is usually traded at a good volume, and with minor daily changes, the risk is considered to be low. During the last day, the ETF moved $5.57 (1.76%) between high and low. For the last week, the ETF has had daily average volatility of 1.33%.

QQQ holds several positive signals, but we still don't find these to be enough for a buy candidate. At the current level, it should be considered as a hold candidate (hold or accumulate) in this position whilst awaiting further development.Due to some small weaknesses in the technical picture we have downgraded our analysis conclusion for this ETF since the last evaluation from a Strong Buy to a Hold/Accumulate candidate.
