The US technology index saw its price reach 20,771 points for the first time since its inception. The long-term uptrend is clearly identifiable since the January 2023 rally. Technically, it remains intact, with breakouts and retests at every key price level.
At the time of writing, few hours to go before the weekend and a few days to go before the end of the month, the NQ is posting a negative performance (-8.4%) for July.
This correction would be interpreted as ‘technical’ if the index rebounds to the 18,300 - 18,500 price zone. This price zone acts as support.
In a buy scenario, it would be wise to wait for a reversal signal on this support zone. Bear in mind that the long-term trend line lies just below this zone and that the RSI is also moving above the uptrend line, which has been tested on numerous occasions.
In a bearish scenario, which would be the most likely given the general situation on the equity market, the US technology index could drop a few more percentage points. The big selling signal would be a break of the long-term trend line, which could take the price back to the next major support zone between 16,500 and 17,000 points. This support zone also represents the index's former all-time highs. A break of the long-term trend line on the RSI would reinforce the price.
