SOXS Signals & Forecast
There are few to no technical positive signals at the moment. The Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bear 3X 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 $16.35 and $24.49. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals.
