Chart of the Day

πŸ† Today’s Chart of the Day was shared by David Cox. (@DavidCoxRJ).

  • The Nasdaq ($QQQ) has been unchanged over the past two weeks. However, David points out that the next two weeks have historically been strong.
  • Earlier this week, Jeff Hirsch of The Stock Traders Almanac examined this seasonal tailwind in a note titled β€œChristmas in July.β€œ
  • Jeff noted, β€œThis 12-day run has been up 30 of the past 39 years with an average historical gain of +2.5%. Look for this rally to begin around June 26 and run until about July 12.”

The takeaway: The Nasdaq ($QQQ) has been indecisive for two weeks now, printing back-to-back Doji candles. Given this seasonal tailwind over the next two weeks, $QQQ *should* resolve decisively higher in the coming days. But, if it resolves lower during this bullish period, it will be a red flag.

Quote of the Day

β€œFeeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.”

– William Arthur Ward
