Nasdaq 100 heads back up towards a record high
The Nasdaq 100’s sharp drop from Monday’s record high at 18,342 to Tuesday’s 17,805 low has been followed by another up leg which nears its peak with the 18,400 region being eyed amid Friday’s US Non-Farm Payrolls release.
The negative divergence seen on the daily RSI, whereby the oscillator didn’t confirm this week’s price record high, for the time being, remains in play, however.
Having said that, while Tuesday’s low at 17,805 underpins, the uptrend will remain intact.
