Nasdaq (QQQ) Breakout Underway

I'm now bullish on the Nasdaq (QQQ) after the breakout of the range. I have been waiting for the market to breakout or breakdown from the trading range. That move finally took place with Nasdaq breaking the high around $55.70.

I will view the next pullback as a buying opportunity for a swing trade. The pullback must stay above $52.50 that will create a higher low in the chart. A swing trade is a trade that lasts several days.

The blue arrow shows Nasdaq breaking above the 200 daily MA as well as breaking above the trading range of the last few weeks. I like the fact that the QQQ's have created a higher low with each pullback.

 The weekly chart shows how Nasdaq has held up during the last pullback near the $50 support area. I like how the market has held up in an area that was a prior resistance point for the market. Whenever a resistance point is broken, it often turns into a support area. If Nasdaq (QQQ) breaks above the $60 area and holds, I will look for further gains. I will look to move my long term portfolio back into the market at that point.
