The QQQ ETF price gained 1.45% on the last trading day (Thursday, 18th Dec 2025), rising from $600.41 to $609.11. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 0.99% from a day low at $606.92 to a day high of $612.93. The price has been going up and down for this period, and there has been a -2.22% loss for the last 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day along with the price, which is a positive technical sign, and, in total, 8 million more shares were traded than the day before. In total, 78 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $47.35 billion.

On Jul 21, 2025, it was reported that UBS gave QQQ a "Mixed" grade with a "hold" action.

The ETF lies in the middle of a weak 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 2.68% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $606.57 and $662.40 at the end of this 3-month period.

There are mixed signals in the ETF today. The QQQ ETF holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the ETF. Also, there is a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $614.09 and $614.75. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Wednesday, December 17, 2025, and so far it has risen 1.45%. 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 $590.07 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 $6.01 (0.99%) between high and low. For the last week, the ETF has had daily average volatility of 1.56%.

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.
