NASDAQ COMPOSITE: CHARGING TOWARD A BATTLE LINE
The Nasdaq composite .IXIC vaulted nearly 3% on Wednesday for its biggest daily gain since February. With this, the tech-laden index hit a record intraday high of 19,000.50 before ending at a record closing high of 18,893.47.
Traders are monitoring price action closely as the composite is now challenging a chart hurdle that capped strength in July, as well as in late October:
The composite faces a log-scale resistance line from its Y2K high, which on a monthly basis, resides around 19,100 this November.
Log-scaling is plotted so that equal distances on the price axis represent proportional changes in value rather than constant changes. Therefore, it can be better suited for longer-term analysis, over a wide range of values.
Of note, upon flirting with this resistance line in July, the composite sold off nearly 16% before bottoming at the support line from its January 2023 low.
In late October, as the IXIC once again challenged this resistance line, it suffered a quick, near-4% setback.
Thus, to add confidence in further gains, bulls will want to see closes above 19,100.
In that event, the composite's next hurdles would include the 20k psychological level and a resistance parallel, based off of the January 2023 support line, that resides around 20,850 in November.
