Long-term perspective:
Our long-term perspective has not changed. A monthly down trend that started on 1/11/2006 had broken the long-term channel support. The wave 3 of this down wave was completed on 7/18/2006 at 35.54. There are two possible scenarios that we need to consider:

1. The monthly down trend is not over yet and it will unfold as a 5 waves structure. Wave 4 now is completed or near completion and wave 5 down is in progress or about to start. That will make a new low.

2. Monthly down wave was an A-B-C corrective zigzag. It is completed now, and a new up trend started on 7/18/2006. The first sub wave up is completed or near completion, and a short-term consolidation is in progress.

Technical Stock Market Timing System
Short-term perspective:
Pull back is weak so far. It looks more like consolidation than like a next down impulse wave. The daily technical indicators are still close to the overbought area so consolidation may continue for the next week. We have to wait and see which long-term scenario will unfold, but the weaker is the down move the more chances are the #2 scenario is in play.

QQQQ - Long-Term Trend
Technical Stock Market Timing System
Short-term perspective:
QQQQ is at the monthly down trend resistance level. Daily William's Percentage Range and Lane's Stochastic are overbought. DIA and SPY are also daily overbought. On Friday QQQQ formed a Bearish Advance Block candlestick pattern. Advance Block is a medium reliability reversal pattern. It hints that the bounce is losing steam. Considering all technical indicators mentioned above, we expect QQQQ chart to turn down soon.

QQQQ Trend Analysis - 8/11/2006

QQQQ Trend Analysis - 8/11/2006
Last week we've suggested, "SPY and DIA are both overbought, so rally should at least pause for a while. It might be one more push down". We had indeed a down week. The QQQQ was down 0.42 points, or 1.14%, at 36.53.
Long-term perspective:
Our Long-term perspective has not changed. Monthly down trend that started on 1/11/2006 and has broken long-term channel support has a three waves structure so far. Wave 3 is near completion. It should be followed by a mid-term rally that might be already in progress, but monthly down trend might not be over yet and may unfold as a 5 waves structure.
QQQQ - Long-Term Trend
Technical Stock Market Timing System
Short-term perspective:
QQQQ monthly downtrend has a three waves structure. A wave 3 that started on 4/7/2006 at 43.05 is completed or almost completed. QQQQ weekly falling channel (black lines) is still valid. Last week QQQQ felt down from a monthly channel resistance line as we expected. Weekly William's Percentage Range and Lane's Stochastic are both oversold while daily Lane's Stochastic is near oversold area. We consider that a move toward the channel support line is still possible, but If QQQQ continues a downtrend next week, it will be oversold in both time frames and the downtrend would be exhausted again.

Technical Stock Market Timing System
Short-term perspective:
QQQQ monthly downtrend has a three waves structure. The monthly falling channel is presented on the picture below (blue lines). Wave 3 that started on 4/7/2006 at 43.05 is completed or almost completed. Now QQQQ is near weekly falling channel resistance line as you can find on the picture (black lines). We don't expect QQQQ to break resistance right now, as SPY and DIA are both overbought, so rally should at least pause for a while. It might be one more push down, but it will make QQQQ extremely oversold and pretty attractive considering that weekly Lane's stochastic is still in the oversold area.
